I've heard of BTS before. A lot. They're kind of hard to miss in the kpop world. But I didn't really pay them much attention and definitely couldn't have given you an example of one of their songs.
Then BTS came up on the latest episode of the Fine Bros' series 'Youtubers React - to Kpop'. I've had issues with this series before, such as when they stated in the fact section that TVXQ had 5 members. But you know, you watch it anyway just in case they feature a band you love.
Anyway, so I was watching that and BTS came on. The song was catchy and I liked their costumes. But it's the choreography that keeps me coming back. Well, that and other reasons I'm too embarrassed to admit to. I mean, they may be a few years younger than me, but they've got something going on there, if you know what I mean. It's like EXO all over again. Guys hip trusting and rubbing their lips and looking all sexy shouldn't be allowed unless they're older than me. It's fine. Super Junior are older than me. TVXQ are older than me. SHINee are .... let's move on.
So I started checking out some of their other MVs, and I really like them. A lot of what they do have that attitude-y-ness that I really love in BlockB and early BAP. I recognised one mv from a EYK kpop music Monday video about how happy they all were and how it's so refreshing to see artists obviously having a good time in their videos. At the time it was a rarity, but did you see Leeteuk in Devil? He was having a BLAST. And Onew in Married to the Music. It's nice to see Kpop artists having a nice time. Especially Leeteuk. I liked the teaser for the new song. Everyone looks like their being super Super Junior-ish, apart from Kyuhyun who looks like they shot his close up without him realising they were filming him. Donghae winks all sexily, Eunhyuk looks all brooding, and Kyu is just like 'what?'.
I keep getting distracted by Super Junior. This is supposed to be about BTS.
So yeah. Go watch the Dope MV.
