- Oh!
- That's a BTS watcher for you.
- Oh.
- BTS.
They are the biggest band in the world right now,
with a huge fandom, great message,
and a crazy amount of talent.
Their latest song 'Dynamite'
broke multiple YouTube viewing records,
and they became the first
all-South Korean group to have
a number one single on the Billboard Hot 100.
Now I've been sharing my love of K-pop
with anyone who'd listen,
ever since I was a kid in the nineties,
but it's BTS's popularity
that's been getting many of my friends
to finally take K-pop seriously.
- Hah!
- Let's go! Let's go!
- So, while I was in Korea
a few months ago,
I decided to put together
a comprehensive list of music videos
for the guys to dive into the world of BTS.
Today, they'll be watching those
for the very first time
and taking a "Which BTS member are you?" Quiz
to find out who their true biases are.
And we'll find out if Zach is, as he claims,
the "Jimin of the group".
- I consider myself a real Jimin.
Annyeong! It's me, Jimin.
Jimin. Jimin. Jimin.
- Oh, Jimin.
- Ohh.
- After this video,
they'll finally be able to
truly call themselves 'army'.
(introduction music)
- Get the new KNZE sweatpants
at TryGuys.com.
- And our brand new KNZE name shirts.
- Featuring
- Keith!
- Ned!
- Jimin!
- Eugene. Wait, you're not Jimin.
- Oh, we'll find out.
- We have ten music videos that
Eugene has chosen and set up for us.
Now, BTS fans, we apologize.
We cannot play their music in this video.
So you'll get little itty-bitty snippets
and then you're just going to listen to us
stream over stock music.
- The first video
we're going to watch is 'Dope'.
(music begins)
- Boom, ladies and gentlemen.
I'm pretty (beep) into this already.
(Zach laughs)
I'm into this.
- Here we go.
Aw, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
(everyone yells)
- Let's go!
- Let's go! Yes.
- Yeah.
- Oh my God, I'm so (beep) hyped.
- Whoa. Wow.
- One, one, one.
And then they were all there.
And now they're, oh wow.
- Everyone's there.
- Wow. They're all so good at dancing.
- Yeah. I think that they are known
for being some of the
most impressive dancers in the world.
- We really don't know much about BTS.
They are currently the biggest band in the world,
in the universe.
- BTS also known as Bangtan Boys-
- Yeah.
- is an acronym for the Korean expression
'Bangtan Sonyeondan',
- Which means?
- Pronunciation, please forgive.
Meaning Bulletproof Boy Scouts.
(everyone exclaims)
- Which is a dope name.
- That's cool.
- What a great name. I get it.
- Yeah. I get it immediately.
- These guys are hot.
I want to hang out with them.
What's so cool is this is 2015.
This is, like, probably early on,
and this is still better than
most current pop music in 2020
(beep) I'm exhausted.
It's like we just had sex.
- I've got one word for that: dope.
- In 2017 they announced
they'd also be known as Beyond The Scene
as part of their new identity.
Lots of meanings. Lots of boys.
- We've got V, Jungkook, Jimin,
Suga, RM, J Hope, and Jin.
- Here's the thing
that's really challenging, okay.
In most pop groups, you really only have to know
two of the five members.
Think about NSYNC.
You knew Justin, you knew Lance,
and eventually you get to learn 'em.
In BTS, they change their hairstyle,
they change their hair color,
they change their outfits,
they changed their piercings.
I can't keep track of these guys.
(music begins)
Alright, up next we're watching 'Fire'.
- 2016 ear bud technology.
- Mhm.
(everyone exclaims)
- Oh yeah, we've got some horns.
He's on fire. He's on fire!
- That's the Pink Floyd album cover.
- Wow.
- (beep).
This is excellent.
- Whoever directs
all the K pop music videos,
they need to let them direct every Marvel movie.
- Yes.
- They are clearly so much better
than all of the bullshit directors
we have over here.
This is the shit.
This is great.
- I can only imagine the contrast of
cutting between them dancing.
(Zach laughs)
- They don't drop the mic.
They drop a car.
So far, I like all of these songs more than
the ones that I think have
broken through to America a little more.
These are better than Boy with Luv,
a hundred percent.
- But everyone watching is like,
"This is old news. This is like an old song.
Nobody even listens to this anymore."
- Yeah, four years ago.
- Well, we're nothing if behind the curve.
Let's find out which ones we are most like.
Oh, you have the opposite scroll to me.
- Yeah.
- How weird.
- I know. I like it that way.
- What's your favorite title song?
'Boy with Luv', 'IDOL'-
(everyone laughs)
Oh no.
- Yeah man,
what's your favorite BTS song?
- Oh no. I don't know BTS.
- We got 'Boy with Luv', 'IDOL',
'Blood Sweat & Tears', 'DNA', 'Fake Love',
'I Need U', 'Dope' and 'Save Me',
which is the first lyric
in our official intro song.
- ♪Save me. ♪
- ♪Want to break free. ♪
- Okay, I'm going with 'Save Me'.
- Yeah.
- Just so we have to keep that in.
- I think I'm going to do 'I Need U'
because I'm not a 'Boy with Luv',
I'm a man...
(Ned laughs)
with love.
- Oh, this is tough.
I'll go with 'DNA' because mine is flawed.
- All right. This is one of their big ones.
This is 'DNA'. We know the whistle song.
- I liked this one.
I like the colors that this one,
cause this like visually reminds me of
Girls' Generation.
Like, it's very bubblegum,
like K-pop, very bright.
- I feel like this is combining
the best of all of their abilities, you know?
- Ah-huh.
- Oh yeah.
(everyone makes noises)
- Look at this like drug trip that they created.
- I feel like we could do this dance.
- They're so cute sometimes.
Ooh, they're doing that thing you do at camp
where you learn how to untangle your-
- Wait, we can do that.
(everyone laughs)
- Wow, yeah.
- Do we look cool?
- Wow, how do we look?
- Eugene?
- All right. What's your fashion style?
Streetwear, trendy, boyfriend, boho chic, comfy,
- Ooh. You're in-between two.
- It's pretty streetwear.
(everyone laughs)
- What is one word you would use
to describe yourself?
Sweet, cool, funny.
I would say that I'm all these things.
- What do you feel is most important?
Ah (beep), what would Jimin say? Uh.
(music begins)
- Now we're moving on to 'Run'.
Train tracks.
This sort of looks a little dystopian.
- Yes, I like it.
- Was there a nightclub inside?
Please be a club inside.
It's gonna be a club.
- Yeah. Now you're here, baby.
- This looks like a place to buy illicit drugs.
- I wonder if there's fanfic between them,
'cause there was definitely, like,
a loaded look in-between them just now
when they were getting arrested,
- Now they're pillow-fighting, which is-
- That's...pretty steamy.
They hate each other, but they love each other.
- That's what drugs will do to you.
(Zach laughs)
This one's a little more story focused, you know?
I think it's about this guy's journey
in this song,
whereas the other one is
just like super (beep) dope.
I'm trying to understand
where this guy's coming from,
and I think he's trying to fit in.
- Yeah.
- And he doesn't know where he fits in.
- Oh.
- Ahuh. My boys are back.
- My boys are back.
- I guess. You know, I want friends like this.
I get it.
I feel like I'm watching it-
- I feel like they're my friends.
- Yeah.
Pick an activity to do with your best friend.
Are we grabbing a bite to eat, going to the club?
I'm never going to a club ever again.
The only reason you go to a club is to find
your significant other
or someone to (beep) randomly for one night.
- Or to dance!
- Or to dance.
- Or to let loose for once.
- Yeah.
- I'm not doing that.
You have a month to do whatever you want to do.
What do you do?
- Visit family and friends.
Not for a month.
I'm definitely doing travel.
Like you can have a real in-depth experience
if you go for like a month traveling.
- You are driving and see someone clearly lost.
How do I know that they're lost?
- It says it's clear.
- What, but it's never,
what are you talking about?
How could that be clear?
I would say that somebody who's lost
looks like this.
(Keith gestures)
- Even though in COVID,
I would not advise for you to do this,
probably you should never do this,
I'm doing it!
- Wow.
- I'm getting them in the car.
Where are you going?
Keith's takin' ya.
- All right.
This is 'Blood Sweat & Tears' from 2016.
600 million views.
(music begins)
- Ooh.
- They're gonna start breaking shit
and I'm gonna scream.
- Oh wow.
- Kinda Bieber-esque.
- Yeah.
- I love it, it's like slow motion on the swings.
- Ahuh.
(everyone exclaims)
- Oh, it's pink now, what? And the water.
- Wow. The post-production team go off!
- Go off, post-production.
- Oh, and now it's a little 50 Shades of BTS.
- Oh Jesus. They're so hot.
- Oh no.
- Oh no, don't lick- I've done the fingers.
It was too sexy.
(Ned makes mouth sounds)
- You okay, Keith?
- It's so hot.
- I know that's what I'm saying,
but guys are very hot.
- What is happening, oh my God?
- These guys are geniuses.
Okay, what is your favorite animal?
They've gotten winners for all of these.
The bear's cute.
The dog is mid jump.
The cat has those (beep) me eyes.
(everyone laughs)
It does! Look at this cat.
- Yeah. That cat wants to (beep) for sure.
- Which mix tape is your favorite?
'Mono', 'Hope World', 'Agust D'.
August D? Agust D.
I can't decide.
- Which solo song is your favorite?
Uh-oh. It's one of these songs sung by Jimin.
Is this where everything- my fate is decided?
Winter Bear? I'm going no further.
- Yeah, I think you found your-
- Winter Bear, of course.
(music begins)
- All right. This is 'IDOL'.
- Yeah. This one is so good.
- It starts with the horns.
(Keith makes horn sounds)
- And I think this was the most viewed video
in 24 hours or something like that.
This video broke some kind of crazy record.
- Wow. It's so colorful.
- This looks like The Wachowskis' Speed Racer.
- Oh! Big-ass shark.
- Watch out!
- This video is crazy.
- Whoa, that was your thing!
- Oh my God!
- They did the infinite mouth thing
that I do on Tik Toks!
(music begins)
(Ned laughs)
- That guy's a little goofy in this one.
- They're very silly.
You know, I like sometimes that they're
just like a group of fun boys.
- And they bite their lip and
remind you that they know how to (beep).
- Yeah.
All right. Pick an activity.
Cooking.
Also my photo didn't load, so that just says
"stainless steel and black gas range oven".
I think I would like photography,
but I've never taken a stab at it.
- Oh, we should do Try Guys Try Photography!
- Oh.
- I know, I think we really should.
I would love that.
- You're given a chance to
speak to BTS one-on-one!
Which member do you speak to?
- You know, I've always thought of myself
as more of a Jungkook man.
So there you go.
- Jimin, obviously.
(Keith laughs)
- I wonder though, if I answer that,
does that mean I can't be Jimin,
cause I'm speaking to Jimin?
- Oh, well it depends.
Jimin might be the one who's known for
loving himself the most.
- Oh God, I'm so nervous.
I keep every answer,
I'm getting closer and closer
to "Am I Jimin?" and or "Am I not Jimin?"
- All right, moving on to Spring Day.
A lot of their songs are quite,
like, emotional and melodic like this.
I thought it was a lot of, more like,
- Bangers.
This is like, these are some ballads.
- I think this song is them growing up-
- Mmm.
- and maturing as artists, right?
This is probably two, three years
into their band, and it's like,
"Hey, we're gonna show you a new side of us."
- This is such a sweet song.
Sounds like something you'd listened to
if you were broken up with.
- Yeah.
- It'd be nice if we knew what they were saying.
- Yeah.
- Maybe we could do subtitles?
- I hate this moment. The time is flowing.
- I was right!
- It's about a break up.
- It's about a break up!
- Wow. Brilliant to put on subtitles.
That didn't even occur to me.
- I try to exhale you in pain.
Like smoke. Like white smoke?
- Woah. That's cause smoking kills.
- Yeah.
Think about how the members of BTS
have probably gone through heartbreak themselves.
We've all been through heartbreak,
but we don't think about these pillars,
you know, of pop culture,
also feeling the same emotions we feel.
- I'm like about to cry right now.
(Keith exhales)
- How do you show love?
- Through gifts? No.
- Through gifts and small gestures, in song!
- I would say by offering advice,
but I have learned in marriage
that that's not the way to show your love.
- Yeah, that's right.
You may be showing it,
but the other person is not feeling it.
- Not what they want right then.
Not what they want.
- No no no.
They just want support.
- Ooh.
- This is 'Fake Love'.
(music begins)
Fake love is the worst kind of love.
- Oh.
- Whoa.
What? They're like kind of go- what?
- We got to do that.
- What? With the silhouettes.
- I like this 'cause so far this is
just like a dance video.
It's very pretty,
but it's not, like,
giving me a raging hard-on at all.
(Zach laughs)
You know? Like some of these have been,
like, wild.
- Well, I'm hyped up.
- I'm hyped up.
- But I'm not feeling the-
- I'm not being pushed over the edge,
but I hear a drop coming.
(everyone exclaims)
- Whoa, that was crazy.
Now it's Michael Bay.
- It exploded inside.
- No, it's still, it's still like smooth.
- Yeah.
- It's very smooth and cool, but it's not,
it's not getting me going.
You know what I'm saying?
- What is your Zodiac sign?
Can I skip this question?
(Zach laughs)
- Dude, Leo is the first one listed
and that's hella dope,
'cause that's me,
and we're the best.
- Well the Leos would think that.
- Yeah, they sure would.
All right, I'm a Gemini
- Gemini! Twin naked ladies.
- All right.
Second last is 'Boy with Luv' featuring Halsey.
(music begins)
- When Halsey got this phone call,
she must've been like,
"Well, I can (beep) retire."
- Yeah
- Wow. Where did a little tongue move?
- I don't know.
- Made my heart leap.
- I tell you their tongues look very soft.
(everyone laughs)
I'm just saying. I'm just saying.
- Yeah, Keith?
- Yeah.
- Like what?
- And just kind of curious-
- I don't know, they look soft!
- soft tongues.
- They don't, like, mine doesn't look soft, right?
(Keith makes tongue noises)
- Does my tongue look it?
- Yours looks kinda soft.
- How about mine?
- Yours look slick.
- Soft tongue (indistinct) is my new nickname.
(imitating song)
- I'm like embarrassed how onboard I am
and how long it took me to figure this out.
- I like this, 'cause this feels like
a good summer music festival bop.
Like, if you can imagine-
- Oh yeah.
walking into the festival, like-
- Yes.
yes, it's here, we're here.
- But you would probably be like
"(beep), I'm late, we missed BTS!
The line to get in was so long."
- That's true.
- I see this as like the end of the show celebration,
like they come back out
and confetti's raining from the sky.
- Or you know when, like,
your first bottle of white wine hits.
(everyone laughs)
- Guys, we need to get the (beep) pandemic
under control so I can see BTS in concert.
- I know.
- It's the only thing I'm living for right now.
It's just knowing that someday
I'm going to be there with my boys.
- That's right.
- Oh my my my. Oh my my my.
- What's your favorite track off
'Map of the Soul: Persona'?
- Oh no.
- Oh boy. That's a fun album name.
- That is a fun album name.
- Map of the Soul?
- Um, I can't decide.
You know why?
'Cause I don't know any of them,
and I can't pronounce half of them.
(Zach laughs)
- The one that speaks to me the most is 'Home'.
I love my home.
I love my family.
- My heart's telling me that I'm a real Jamais Vu
(Ned laughs)
It just feels right.
- All right. This is our final one.
(music begins)
This must be one of their newest one.
Premiered June 26, 2020.
- I like that chord.
Really beautiful piano tone.
(everyone imitates the song)
- B-T-S, B-T-S, BTS, B-T-S.
- Burn the books, go!
(everyone laughs)
- Blaw, blaw, blaw, blaw!
- This feels like a graduation song to me.
It's got like this nostalgia built into it.
- Yep.
- It's happy but reflective.
- It's very, 'Happy goodbye'.
- Yeah.
- All right.
- This is great.
- This just became my summer.
- Say go! Say go!
(Ned gasps)
Oh shit.
- You guys.
I got RM.
(everyone yells)
- What?
You're just like RM.
You're very intelligent
and a natural-born leader.
- Leader?
- You're the leader!
Oh, am I the leader?
- A cute, innocent leader.
He first debuted with the boy band.
RM's stage name was rap monster-
- Oh no. Oh no
inspired by his love and talent for rapping.
Since then the idols changed his name to RM,
which stands for real me.
- Well, this is great.
Now we know that Ned is the leader,
but we need to find out who is he leading?
Ready?
Three, two, one.
(everyone yells)
You're Mr Worldwide Handsome.
- Pitbull!
- And Cutie Guy.
You take on many roles such as the most beautiful.
- Wow. Oh, come on.
- You know me. You know me.
- The most funny? Objectively.
(everyone laughs)
Beneath the surface, you care deeply for others,
and often cover it up with humor.
Overall, you're beautiful,
funny, kind, and caring.
They (beep) crushed it.
- Wow.
- I feel seen.
- Oh my God.
- I love this. I'm Jin.
- Here we go guys. Don't look.
- I won't look, I won't look.
- Oh, no!
- Oh no?
- Not Jimin.
- Who are you?
- Can I retake it?
I am V!
- Oh yeah, you're V!
- I only get one letter?
I'm crestfallen.
I'm heartbroken.
I'm crushed.
I thought I knew who I was.
I thought I knew myself, but,
I'm not even me.
I'm V disappointed right now.
(everyone laughs)
You're just like V.
You're very open and friendly.
You're a kindhearted individual
whose free spirited nature
easily attracts people from all over the world.
Whoa.
You're beautiful on the inside and out.
So continue to be your amazing friendly self.
Oh. Oh.
He recently released a song, 'Winter Bear'.
That's what (beep) got me away from being a Jimin.
- That's what it was, 'Winter Bear'.
- God damn you, 'Winter Bear'.
- The sort of three things I see in BTS
are just songs that slap and are just,
like, make you want to get up and dance,
songs that show, like, emotional growth,
and then also, like,
sad songs that are perfect for a breakup.
- After watching ten in a row,
I feel connected with them,
- I know.
- They look at me and I feel seen.
- God, (beep) BTS man. Who knew?
I mean, millions and millions of people
in the entire continent-
- Yeah but, you know what, now we also know.
(fun music)
- Yay!
(clapping)
(them imitating the music)
- Hit subscribe!
- B! B-T-S!
- Hilarious post bumper.
(Zach laughs)
