BTS Rise of Bangtan | Chapter 19: The Truth Untold

They had to switch from Bon Voyage (2016, 17, 18, 19) to In the Soop (2020, 21), because of covid. In the Soop is a continuation, seasons 5&6 of the same show.

plsss watch BEGINS YOUTH its a bts album based drama

I think you’re ready to move onto the officially required viewing of Jungkooks GCF videos. :)

The videos you mentioned as being 'In the Soop' are actually episodes of 'RUN BTS'., Jimin having young forever tattooed on his elbows makes a lot of sense. ִֶָ. ..𓂃 ִֶָ🦋་༘࿐

i'm sure someone already mentioned but the clips where you were asking whether it's in the soop or bon voyage, those are run bts episodes. i really hope you guys continue watching those, especially the older ones. 💜

I watch your reaction to Busan concert. You still haven’t noticed Jimin’s famous, popular, viral “Never behind” part in the song “Into the Sun.”

In the Soop was an alternative to Bon Voyage because COVID prevented them from traveling. I suggest the Boracity magazine video "Trends Created by BTS"; you'll understand better.

What do you think about pausing Rise until you reach the album "Love Yourself: Tear," which is the topic of the next episode? This would avoid spoilers and also give you time to watch things related to the albums you're reviewing. I know this is a suggestion that won't be implemented, but who knows?

💜🫶🏽🫶🏽💜

You miss Jimin's solo dance for his song LIE on recent video and i don't think you watch it later

Yup BTS totally paved the way doing all these different types of shows. They were the blueprint 💜

Also btw I got carried away explaining how hard they had it. Hobi’s solo work is so amazing, i love all of it. It’s so Hobi for lack of a better description 😅 Not one of them flop as solo artists. Between their different styles in their solo work as well as the pretty big group discography, you pretty much get all genres

It’s around 2017 was when BTS thought of disbanding. Thank goodness they overcame it and stayed for us.

just randomly dropping by…. were u guys able to secure ticket for Australia? there are still alot of remaining seats available, I hope you guys will attend 💜💜

BTS started mostly every variety show first and then the whole kpop industry started copying . Also thay why it common phrase BTS paved the way for whole kpop industry

OMG this reminded me they have yet to see ep 51 of RUN BTS

JIN ALBUM ECHO

PLS REACT TO JIN ALBUM ECHO AND THE BACKGROUND SONG ON IT FIREEEE

THAT SONG "So Far Away" Is the song that save me from suicidal thoughts.. I hope you guys will react to it. Because i believe many ARMY relate or saved by that song

I'm so sad it's almost the end, I love this series. Loved the reaction as usual guys

Plss watch PARK JIMIN INTRO GUIDE: -PARK JIMIN MAIN DANCER OF BTS (part 1) https://youtu.be/jkrcRsu0tk8?si=jPcWTA420_gJDl85 - PARK JIMIN LEAD VOCALIST OF KPOP (part 2) https://youtu.be/JtUdH2rWuQM?si=7wdfqWb12hh0Pe5S - PARK JIMIN IMPACT AND POPULARITY (part 3) https://youtu.be/_OPIro2eHoE?si=c-M46PVBhhnGNOg_

Run bts trips holy peak

There is so much content that you will watch thanks to BTS and all the amazing armies💜 i recommend Ryan Tedder on how involved BTS is in their music interview he did recently its like an intro to the behind the scenes of making music and a little more in depth than the documentary. I also highly recommend Busan D2 for Festa day 2026 it was iconic

kanye was not the pioneer of 808s 😭 from what i can remember, marvin gaye made them popular in the 80s but they could've been around for longer

I’m so glad we’re almost done with run

27:45 they all were run bts episodes!

omg it always hits me how good and emotion so far away is😭please react to it soon the lyrics are also amazing

i still recommend watching run bts in order!<3<3

I've always thought that, other than music, RUN BTS is really Bangtan's core. They started the show early on and it's been their constant throughout the years. A lot of clips you're seeing in the Rise of Bangtan, especially in this chapter, are definitely coming from RUN BTS. Whether it's a game or a short trip ending in a campfire.

Guys, remember that most of the shows you’re seeing are Run BTS!, not BTS In the Soop. The Soop was filmed during the COVID-19 pandemic because they couldn’t film Bon Voyage due to restrictions. Many of the later Run BTS! episodes have multiple parts (part one, part two, part three), and their filming may remind you of The Soop. There are so many wonderful episodes of Run BTS!, so please don’t forget to watch them.

BTS started doing their own variety show coz they weren't invited to korean varity shows in their early days coz they came from a small company They didn't had any other choice but to promote themselves by making vlogs and their own content. some grps may have done that but it wasn't a popular practice, BTS made it popular. And nowadays every kpop grp has their variety show coz of that.

@0:06 pronunciation of Seo Tae-ji (서태지): So (rhymes with toe)-Tay-jee

So Far Away is my fav song on this planet

2017-18 is one of the critical moments of BTS, they were really having such hard times and expierence the biggest burn out of their career. If you remember, Tae and Yoongi talk about this time in Suchwita with V. Some of the members started to get really really bad in their mental health, others get affected by seeing how sick the others were, and just like that, while touring and working non-stop, get drained. When Jimin says they got vacations, it sounds like a big deal, but its so sad if you think about, they were giving less than a week the whole year, and that didn't happen all the years, sometimes is just 3 days break, like the trip they're showing here, where they also get recorded for Ruun BTS, is still work, that's the reason they always say they spend more time with each other than their families, who also live far away from Seoul. It's crazy how demanding the industry of K-Pop is, but what every idol is afraid, is get forgotten by the public. 2018 was their 5 year, the year groups start to fall apart and finish the brand in the industry. So scary for them.

Sorry a really long one coming. I hope it all makes sense, it's late here and I'm sleepy. Guys you see RM saying pressure over and over again... they were truly under a lot of pressure to the point of severe burn out and exhausting and were heavily considering disbanding in 2018. RM bore an immense psychological weight and trying to navigate their explosion of fame, he fought for the members rights and bridged between the company and members as well as demanding creative freedom and guaranteed rest periods to give them some breathing room that they desperately needed. Jin helped keep the group together by emotionally supporting RM fighting alongside him to ensure their physical survival. He also publicly exposed the 28.5days per month brutal schedule they had to do without a break. Jin also revealed during the 2018 MAMA awards about their serious consideration to disband. This unscripted confession helped shatter the polished illusion of Idol perfection, revealed severe burnout and mental struggles, this type of emotional honesty was unprecedented publicly validating that massive global success comes with immense physical and psychological pressures. Jin was instrumental to ensuring that their new contract strictly separated mandatory "work time" from sacred "personal time" giving them their lives back. Suga send a long deeply affectionate text to V and JK ending with I love you (you might recall V & JK revealing this during a snippet from the Bangtan Dinner party for Festa). He wrote and then also played a raw demo for Outro: Tear breaking down a wall of isolation and opening up honest communication. They all cried together hearing their shared pain articulated so beautifully. Hobi helped steady the ship through "hell" because the practice atmosphere was quite literally that at the time. As you might know he's a perfectionist, but he shifted his focus from perfectionism to emotional support and anchored daily practice to gentle and patient because they were all so exhausted, they couldn't focus. Jimin was the unwavering voice of advocating for their future. He constantly vocalized his desire to perform with BTS for as long as he physically could. He actively reminded them what they meant to each other. This helped the shift from feeling trapped by fame to empowering each other. V also took proactive steps to address the emotional rifts, organized a trip together so they can rebuild and recommit to their journey together. It was a talk it out vacation away from the cameras, managers, schedules, and talking honestly the direction they wanted to continue in. This helped them re-anchor their bond as a chosen family. JK, who had spent his entire developmental youth with his older brothers was struggling significantly, you might recall JK always says he's a combination of his brothers and also that if they hurt, he also hurts. So imagine how he would have been during that time. He broke his habit of hiding his pain then and openly telling his older brothers of how lost and empty he would be without them if BTS disbanded. JK saying this served a reminder to all the members that they aren't just business partners but were raising and protecting each other. Not sure how much you remember about the song Outro: Tear you've reacted to, you might remember you commented that the way they are delivering it, it means something to them.. you're right it is a song that came from this period of their lives. There's also Fake Love from the same era "For you, I could pretend like I was happy when I was ad. For you, I could pretend like I was strong when I was hurt", they were suffocating under the pressure, felt like they were wearing masks. Also there's Sea (Hidden track you haven't reacted to yet and please do so when you are able) capturing their overwhelming fear that their rapid global fame was just an illusion that could disappear in an instant leaving them stranded. There's also the song Let Go (in their Japanese album, also please react to this, you will love it). This was an almost goodbye song to us ARMY on the eve of potentially disbanding 😭 "In order to accept your hand, I have to let go of your hand.. .fate is pulling us apart" "Before we part ways, I will let go. But I am lost in the maze of my heart". You already know of the The Truth Untold, another song about this period of their struggles. This whole period was really shit for them. Everytime I watch it my heart breaks 💔 but they pulled though and now better than ever 💜

There are many episodes of Run that it looks like In The soop. The Canada Episode, the one that you saw in this video is one of it. It was I think 3-4 Run Episodes. Also, if you dive to Bangtan Universe, the video behind Euphoria is a must but you really need to watch it in order. . 2018 is the year they struggled a lot. And I think you will see it more in the next episode. This was the year they really felt the burn out. If the speech in MAMA will be there in the next episode, you'll know why Jin said it in his speech.

Guys, please react to all the new BTS content released on YouTube—specifically on their official channel. There are so many truly incredible behind-the-scenes clips showing the whole process: the tour, the music videos, their first concert, the Netflix comeback special, and more—there’s a lot you haven't seen yet. Please include them in your reactions.

Ooh not many people knew Ddaeng in the cinema I went to yesterday 🥲 so I went "IL-PAL👹 IL-SAM👹 SAM-PAL👹, DDAENG!👹..."

I really hope you'd include the Run BTS episode shown here on your upcoming reactions - it was BTS Picnic (or BTS Short Trip) episodes 53-56. Real good fun, it was like In The Soop's close ancestor.💜

Y’all need to react to Hope World! Some of my favorite songs are on that album!

BTS doing their own shows because they were not invited on TV shows, and you've seen the hardship video. So most of BTS contents are their original content and the other groups actually are following their example. Kpop was huge on TV broadcast at that time. BTS was one of the first generation of youtuber, which is why they have fans from around the world. Most of the contents in this episode are from Run BTS. I suggest if you're planning to watch the Run episode, you look at the duration of the episode. Perhaps do 2-3 episodes in 1 video because the earlier episodes were really short.. and the have like 150+ episodes. You've seen some episodes tho. Haha.

So Far Away is Yoongi's solo song (Agust D solo) an absolute banger you guys need to hear both versions 💜😍 one version is with Suran ( a female vocalist fyi the original version) & the other is with Jin & Jk!! 😍✨️

Love your reactions!!!!

GUYSSS!! We are getting Merry go round and Normal MVs😭

I guess In The Soop exists bcs they couldn't do their yearly Bon Voyage trip bcs of Covid.

Thank you guys for this reaction! P.s if you pay attention to Jin while he’s making the soup, you’ll see there are 3 containers he prepares. I love that the guys not only care about their brothers, but also the staff!💜 2017-2018 was the worst time for them, that’s when they got so big, so quickly that it scared them and had them thinking about disbanding. Jimin’s live here breaks my heart to see him so tired and burnt out, but I’m so thankful he found a way out of it(that they all found it). He has Young Forever tattooed across the back of his elbows, young above his left and forever above his right. Yes, the trip where they had the matching shirts, played football volleyball and sang karaoke is a Run BTS episode with 4 parts. It was kind of a season end finale, for lack of a better word.

It’s run bts but different eps that’s why you thought it’s long and it’s not in the soop

Self made variety show is a bts thing I’m not sure about in the soop style

They were doing concerts and in between the tour dates they were preparing for their next album and then they were also preparing interviews and shows in between while still filming run bts and also some members were working on their mixtapes -there 2018-2022 years were really really hectic I think they went thru like 2 to 3 times burnout at different periods of their career till now one was the one which was very very obvious which we saw in the bts dinner festa 2022 but also the one we didn’t see but the bts members struggles by themselves and then got over it and then let us know that they were gong thru it in 2018 , at the year end awards in 2018 they cried hard saying how they thought of almost disbanding in early 2018 , if you watch the recent bts 2.0 festa dinner they talk about how they are actually enjoying this tour instead of feeling exhausted all the time

A lot of the clips when they look quite young with the dark black hair is from the euphoria music video. you didn't see it since you watched the live version but it's linked to the bangtan universe

I hope you react Run BTS episode 53-56. That's one of the wholesome run episodes.

guys the clips you were wondering about are from run bts, the one we’ve been telling u to watch chronologically hehe

Hey guys! I want to recommend something for you. When you react to the Wings album i´d highly recommend watching the explanation video to the Wings era by xCeleste. It really helped me to understand the concept and meaning of the album and its a great video. The Wings era is really complicated and it took me some time to really understand it but Im sure you guys will love the video since you always question the meaning behind songs and albums. I just know you will LOVE the wings era/album. Thank you for your effort and genuine reactions.

guys its run bts not in the soop

I’ve always felt that Chapters 12–13 are the perfect stopping point for first-time reactors. 💜 After that, ROB uses a lot of Run BTS and documentary footage, which can spoil quite a bit of content. Personally, I’d start the documentaries at that point and come back to ROB later. I know there are only two episodes left, but I just wanted to share my thoughts. 😊

22:25 U definitely need to watch Run BTS from the start because all of those clips are from run BTS

Maybe you guys can start watching Run BTS from the start?

They did in the soop coz they can't do bon voyage during covid.

Before in the soop, there was Bon voyage

"what a relief we are seven. what a relief we are together"

Most of the edits were from Run BTS episode, in which they've done few mini trips. Also if you want to know the history of K pop, you can watch this video of 20 mins, from Seo Taiji to BTS- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kPS4tCHT6SA&pp=ygUeaGlzdG9yeSBvZiBrIHBvcCBpbiAyMCBtaW51dGVz

The content you guys were seeing was for run BTS and other smaller filming projects, 2020 was the first In The Soop, and mostly cos they couldn't go overseas for Bon Voyage due to covid

at the start of the video you mentioned that you guys don't know much about kpop outside of BTS, so may I suggest you guys react to 'KPOP HISTORY in 20mins | From SeoTaiji to BTS' by DKDKTV on YouTube. This video provides a 'quick overview' or 'summary' of what(who) happened in Kpop over time. It's focus is to quickly skim through big events, groups, and some rough context of Kpop history.

BTS like you said at the time where too busy to ALSO have a 'in the SOOP' type content. At the time they already had ALL of the music stuff (plus promotion). They also had yearly content called 'Memories' and most importantly they had "Bon voyage". The reason they did 'In the SOOP' was because they couldn't do "Bon voyage" (and by that time they also already did a couple of private/without cameras type of group vacation (we only have them talk about it in interviews and a couple of posts on Twitter about it). So they knew that a group trip was what helps them mentaly, except this time they brought the cameras) As for other kpop groups; there was some group content back with 2nd gen, but it only on tv. Only when Vlive (and with it Run BTS) came out in 2015; other groups also started doing this type of content with the groups playing games. (Which was separate from actual Variety shows where mostly actors and comedians attended and only a couple of idols because of their busy schedule were invited) After "Bon voyage" a couple of groups also did some traveling shows, but they were for TV and not as FAN content like BTS As for 'In The SOOP' .. well it was so popular that some groups literally did the same show (yes also called In The SOOP). And Taehyung also did a variation of it with his actor friends

No, BTS wasn't the first to do these vlogs of their trips. It was the second generation of Kpop that started it but it was BTS that made it more popular.

If you react to yoongi’s So Far Away, i would suggest you react to the original from Agust D mixtape first .. the ft. Suran one … bcoz the original is more raw and you shouldn’t miss the guitar on the production.. and then the ft. Jin & JK.. it was a song gift for Festa 🥰

💜

It was run bts not in the soop..these episodes are my fav🩷

watching the ddaeng creation again after they performed it yesterday in busan is so crazy

Its time to reaction hosek mixtape guysss. Or please reaction to lollapalloza

need you guys to react to their remake of seo taiji's song

The song in the beginning is So Far Away by Suga ft. Jin and JK. And those clips by the end are all from Run BTS episodes. ☺️

It was episods of Run BTS 53 to 56 : there are 4 episodes each lasts 25mn.

The travel ep in this vid is from run bts. I remember it was ep 53,54,55,56. You can really see how athletic they are🤣🤣. I hope you react to it. It’s way more chaotic then in the soop.

you guys need to watch “BTS paved the way, why is it so hard to accept it” by boracity magazine. it’ll answer most of ur questions 😭

Noo daydream got spoiled

Thanks for another great video !

I was wondering if you guys got tickets for their Australia dates ?

Just in time!I guess I am really unemployed 😭

you guys could maybe watch kpop in 20min! it gives a lot of information around seo taji and how kpop evolved over time

Hope you'll had the best Festa 💜ᗷTS⟭⟬💜💜🅐🅡🅜🅨⁷⟬⟭💜

Unemployment at peak……I came as soon as notification came 🤓😌💅🏻

Attendance check! 😂✨

Good morning 🌞
