AMERICAN RAPPER REACTS TO -BTS (방탄소년단) 'Not Today' Official MV

Did you say that whole part was shot in front of a green screen? No. They are at a real quarry in South Korea. They very rarely use Green screens. They did in "My Universe". That's because they were in Outer Space. Never underestimate BTS and their production team. It's ok. Lots of people guess that for their videos until they find the truth. Watch the Behind the Scenes. You'll see.

They actually donʻt like to use green screens for their music videos. Most. actually almost all of their MV are at real locations. Take a look at the Behind the Scenes. Thank you for reacting to BTS and always being so positive and encouraging towards them. They really do work so hard. BTS... aint no one else like them!! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Over 300 songs. ALL BOPS. They are really just this good. Anywhere in their career.....no skips.

💜💜Not Today is inspired by one of the famous quotes by Martin Luther King Jr., “If you can’t fly, then run. If you can’t run, then walk. If you can’t walk, then crawl. But whatever you do, you have to keep moving forward.” It's all about fighting authority and "breaking the glass ceiling." Its 2017 releases coincided with civil unrest in South Korea as a response to governmental corruption. RM confirmed as much when asked about the song by the Korea Herald. "I wrote the lyrics for BTS so we do not stay silent against social issues and injustice and continue to solve it and raise problem," he said. "We talk about social issues, read books and meet with experts and ponder together. We still have a long way to go, but we will think hard and embrace criticism." The lyrics of "Not Today" speak of overcoming obstacles and keep fighting, while instilling hope in oneself. In the opening lyrics, RM calls out to "all the underdogs in the world." It discusses the theme of anti-establishment that was featured in their previous singles "No More Dream" and "N.O.", through lines like, "A day may come when we lose/ But it is not today/ Today we fight!" During the chorus, the band speak of rallying against injustice, corruption and irrationality; "Don’t kneel, don’t cry, raise your hands Not not today." The line, "Break the glass ceiling that cages you" references the idea of breaking all invisible barriers that stop people from succeeding. The lyrics addressed social and political issues (they are trying to rally the youth and let them know life is worth fighting for, possibly in response to the extremely high rates of youth suicide in their country from a generation that feels lost, unempowered and desperate.) Hope you both have a wonderful day💜💜 @2:44 if you think AgustD looks young in this then check out BTS 2013 debut single "No More Dream - official MV - WITH eng subs" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btIzXwxDWOY😅😅

No green screen here, by the way. We have behind-the-scenes videos of all their music videos and most of what you see in their music videos is real scenery and actual props. Their production team is on another level. They also built that glass platform they dance on, as far as I remember.

They used to perform this as the second song on their stadium world tour love Yourself speak Yourself. Their concerts start with the most high energy songs.

No green screen, you can go watching the making of the video. They used drones, a big piece of acrylic, and shot at a mine in Korea. They froze their asses off. I do remember that.

Not Today live is one of the best BTS songs ever. Army gets the stadium rocking and stomping to the pounding drums and you feel it throughout your body. Army bombs are just waving back and forth to the beat. Awesome experience. If they ever play the SuperBowl this should be their opening song!

Perhaps you might want to see the behind the scene shooting MV “episode” vids. Also before 2019, only Bangtan subs channel had Eng subs. Bangtantv finally started adding eng subs only later, for these behind the scene vids, that for mainly most, there was no green screen, everything filmed was at locations as well. Also would love for you guys to delve deeper at times into the so meaningful inspirational lyrics. Just to let you know, in this song, when they sang “if you can’t run, then walk, if you can’t walk, then crawl”, it was a quote taken from of Martin Luther King speech! Especially RM, who is one of the main lyricist for many songs, is well read and gets his inspiration from so many things he’s read or seen. Also many of BTS songs have such meaningful inspirational content, as well as theI MV’s that usually have even more messages that aren’t easily noticed at times, that there are vid made expressly for the purpose of explaining the deeper meaning, especially when it comes to Korean words, or phrases that at times require more in depth explanation. I recommend dkdktv, (explained by a Korean), or Bookish Theories, and or xCeleste, to name a few. 👍🙏🥰

thank you for showing love to Not today!! the MV was released in 2017, year that brought tons of amazing songs, MV and content so often times it gets overlooked and it's a whole vibe, a great mfking song!! me like many more are 2017 ARMY! hard to get to know them and not love their music at first listen. They are truly amazing

Crow tits are real birds in South Korea. They have a whole song about them. "BAEPSAE".

This song saved me so motivational love it

I love that they used part of a speech given by Martin Luther King JR at Spelman College in 1960 in the song. “If you can’t run, then walk; if you can’t walk then crawl.”

Always amazes me how RM and Suga, underground rappers, dance like this!! What rappers/producers can dance like that?! J-Hope, dancer, learned to rap. Others learned to dance and sing. Together they are bullet proof!!!! They get hit for sure (haters), but even if they have to crawl (lyrics) they keep going. Suchwita’s episode today, Suga with Jin, goes into how crazy how they came together, how close they are, and how they never fail to show up for each other 100% when it’s time to work.

Oh guys... No they don't like to use green screens, and they do like drone cameras on shots like this...I mean look at those gorgeous images from the camera angles.. Our guys are true authentic artists💜💜💜💜

Guys, if you'll click your screen and click on settings then click on picture quality and raise the number higher the fuss will go out of the video. 👍❤💜💜💜💜💜💜💜♥️

NOT TODAY is my song! It's the first BTS song that hooked me and I was obsessed with it for weeks on weeks before I finally got motivated to look into more of their music. Everytime I hear it I get reminded of my baby ARMY days. 😊💜

If you're interested in behind the scenes stuff for MVs, most of BTS's MVs have something called a shooting sketch. If you search of the song name and add 'shooting sketch', you'll see what goes on on filming day. It's impressive to see that the things that seem like it might be green screens and CGI are often practical stuff at it's base with editing on top. They were on location for this MV and it was really a beautiful place. That thing they danced on was a giant circle of ice at the quarry. It's really cool. If you check it out, we'd love to see your reactions and thoughts. Shooting sketches are kind of like dance practice videos in that they're an add perk that comes with songs that got MVs.

Green screen.....lmao😂😂😂 whos gonna tell em?!?! 🤣 i love watching new ARMY's!!! Takes me down memory lane!! Thank yall

This is my all time favorite!! Many know this, but they honor Dr. Martin Luther King in the lyrics with his quote from "Keep Moving from This Mountain," Address at Spelman College on 10 April 1960..."If you can’t fly, run; if you can’t run, walk; if you can’t walk, crawl" So special. Makes me love them more!!
