ARMY sings 'Young Forever' @ Wembley in London (2019)! | 🥹
Added 2023-07-01 21:00:04 +0000 UTCWe recently watched one of the most magical BTS performances we have ever seen (Mikrokosmos @ Wembley in 2019), and were taken aback by BTS' raw emotion on stage.
Following that reaction, many of you sent us comments and messages, providing us with much needed context…JK and Jimin were crying during this performance for a very specific reason! They were “recovering” from ARMY’s surprise performance of 'Young Forever' immediately beforehand. Our thoughts:
You all have described it better than we ever could:
“ARMY was able to do for them what they are always doing for us.” - Patron Angie
“This was the day they (BTS) realized that their music really broke the language barrier. Non-Korean audience surprising them with a Korean song was just beautiful!” - Patron Prachi Sahu
“My daughter and I were blessed to see BTS at Soldier Field Stadium in Chicago for this concert. We will never forget this dreamy, otherworldly, beautiful feeling of hearing them close with this (just like in the live video) and realizing we are all existing in the same space and time, all of us and BTS. We are all connected and living our lives, being there for each other to lift each other up and care for one another, etc.” - Patron Anne
ARMY, let us know in the comments below your thoughts on this incredible surprise, and how it impacted you the first time you heard/experienced it! And if you were in that building that night…WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!!
As always, we truly appreciate your love and support (WE’LL CONTINUE SAYING THIS UNTIL THE END OF TIME). Your subscription allows us to produce higher-quality reaction videos, and moves us closer to our goal of doing this full-time! Let us know if you have any questions, feedback, thoughts, etc. at any time! BORAHAE!! 💜💜

2023-09-04 19:52:33 +0000 UTCThis is one of my favorite BTS and Army moments. Now when I watch it I know the tissues need to be next me. I cry every time. We are so blessed to be able to share in this moment with all of Army at the stadium. A HUGE thank you to BTS staff who thoughtfully planned this for their 7 members who they care for. Thank you to ALL the staff who care for each member on a daily basis. 💜🌟😊🫶🏽🫰🏽👏

2023-07-25 23:49:42 +0000 UTCYoung Forever was one of my fav songs since I became an Army and after that night I can't listen to it without tearing up. I am a polish Army and I had the chance to be there at the Wembley concert. It was something special. I'm sure I'll never forget it. I remember that after my first BTS concert in Berlin a year before I was kinda disappointed(not in BTS of course). I have very bad anxiety and I can't stand being in the crowds, but I love live music. I travel for concerts of my fav musicians all the time. That's why I always choose "sitting" seats over "standing" ones. I always expect to stand anyways but without the unpleasant feeling of everyone squeezing me. I was expecting the same in Berlin but when I stood up some people were complaining and I had to sit throughout the concert. Of course concert was a blast but I still felt a little bit disappointed, so when I was buying tickets for London, I made sure to buy seats in the last row. I didn't care that it was large stadium and I wouldn't be able to see too much. I had the time of my life. BTS were the size of ants and but there were no ppl behind me so I could stand and dance the whole time even though I'm pretty sure everyone was standing that night IDk what happened in Berlin... I remember seeing Jungook cry on the screen and it made me realize how special that moment was for all of us.

2023-07-09 23:01:22 +0000 UTCUggghhh my emotions. Sooo For Youth... on the album Proof, is the first song that I heard the Young Forever theme/anthem. I was incredibly moved by the entire song and at that time did not have the connection to Wembly. It was not until after my journey of all albums that I found out. Every time I get to JHopes part... then JK singing "Your the Best friend for the rest of my life, I wish I could turn back time" it makes me feel overwhelmed with emotions. I wish I could turn back time and have been with them since the begining. But I am constantly reminded by ARMY "BTS finds you when you need them to!" So I just breath deeply and feel every word of that song with deep appreciation... and the connection to Young Forever brings me on such an emotional rollercoaster of sadness, appreciation and pride in the people they were, became and continue to be. My heart 💜 beats harder when I hear those two songs. And sometimes I listen to them back to back if I need the emotional rush. Glad you enjoyed, thanks for sharing. 💜💜💜Borahae💜💜💜

2023-07-09 00:46:05 +0000 UTCI have always called BTS " the 🎁 gift that keeps on giving". Jared and Jordan you too are a "gift that keeps on giving" 💜 . You work so hard to keep giving ARMY content. And not just any content. You put your heart💜 and soul into it and only put out the best. You're creative, thorough, detailed, thoughtful, sincere and respectful in what you choose to give and share with ARMY. THANK YOU!🙏 LOVE YOU BOTH💜💜

2023-07-08 10:46:27 +0000 UTCThis song means a lot to BTS as it came out during difficult times for them. But the song is also particularly special to Jimin. He has the words "Young Forever" tattooed on his elbows.

2023-07-04 17:59:02 +0000 UTCI'm in the driveway at Starbucks and my daughter asked me why I started crying. She read your comment and could only say wow. Thanks for keeping it real! OT7💜×7

2023-07-04 09:09:39 +0000 UTCAll those nights where they tore themselves to shreds in the practice room, all those times the hyung line chose to starve to make sure the maknaes had enough to eat, all the ridicule and the suffering they endured, wondering if this was really going to be worth it in the end - To watch the realization dawn in their eyes that they really, truly made it. It gives me chills every single time.

2023-07-04 05:50:30 +0000 UTCI cry every time I see this video 😭. You're right, you can tell they were taken aback because they are used to being in charge. But for once, army led them. They let them know that they got them. Such a touching moment. Can't wait to see what you guys put together for your project 💜💜
jordyn perry
2023-07-04 05:20:54 +0000 UTCIt’s 90k from my understanding but with the stage setup the way it is, the seating behind it would have been blocked off. 💜
Cheryl ⁷ Lambert
2023-07-03 23:53:44 +0000 UTCI’ll help you until they do Libby! I’m aching for that and a few others. 🙋♀️🫰🏻💜
Cheryl ⁷ Lambert
2023-07-03 23:44:49 +0000 UTCThank you so much for making me cry once again to this video cuz the looks on the members faces displayed the love and awe they have for ARMY is so heartfelt and genuine! I'm gonna keeping bugging you guys to react to a Vocal Line masterpiece HOUSE OF CARDS. I promise you guys will love this soulful, Jazzy, and deep feeling video. I'm including the link! OT7 💜 x7 https://youtu.be/TX_ozc6GtmE
LIBBY WILSON
2023-07-03 20:37:47 +0000 UTCYoung forever will always be emotional. I can’t wait when you do a deep dive into it bc the lyrics just hit harder. You guys will totally understand why they chose to sing this song specifically. Thanks for another great video :)
Fernanda
2023-07-03 18:55:53 +0000 UTCRM said “I’m not knackered” because in UK slang knackered is exhausted, like a horse being sent to the knackers yard… so he’s using British vernacular which you’ll notice in some interviews from this era he slips into a lot 😂 it’s really cute. I’m so glad you watched this and out context to the Mikrokosmos live. And yes it’s me-krokosmos because it’s a Greek word. This idea of control and power you speak about in this reaction is so interesting. I’m in a relationship with a man for the first time in 4 or so years and we’ve had similar conversations; is there power and control in relationships? Should there be? With celebrities, psychologists talk about “parasocial relationships” where the fans financially support the celebrity and feel like they have a real relationship with them, but it’s transactional. With BTS specifically, it’s gone past that and into real reciprocation which we can see from moments like this and in the weverse lives when the members take us in the car, while they’re cooking, building Lego, making woodwork gifts… we get to hang out with them and see a bit of their lives play out and sometimes they cry there too, just because the connection is so strong for them also. It’s beautiful and unlike anything I’ve ever seen in my 43 years of loving varied music. It’s what keeps me purple blooded and I am so excited to watch this journey with you. I’m now looking forward to the Young Forever reaction when it comes and to see what you check out next. It’s so special being part of this army gold family. Thanks JnJ and fellow amis 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

2023-07-03 18:43:37 +0000 UTCIt's just me... but every time I heard them saying " Let go" and later " I wanna MAKE IT RIGHT "I just thought that I love both songs and I really wanna see J&J reacting to them 🙈🤣🤣
Magdalena
2023-07-03 18:32:53 +0000 UTCJimin actually has "YOUNG" and "FOREVER" tattooed on the back of his arms (above his elbows). He has mentioned Young Forever was a song that always resonated with him quite deeply, so it makes sense that he was SO overwhelmed.
Aparna
2023-07-03 18:06:45 +0000 UTCThis clip will forever be special, ya'll were pointing out Jimin, and JK who were understandably emotional, the other members were just shocked and you could see how they were holding back tears. Being an Army from 2017, I have flashbacks everytime I hear that song, seeing their journey of seven hardworking individuals and growing to appreciate each other over the years and through their journey. I can't imagine the emotion that ran through their heads that night but it was truly magical to witness. So lucky of those that witnessed this precious moment in person😢💜

2023-07-03 01:40:05 +0000 UTCWell that made cry! I think J&J's blood became a deeper shade of purple after this one. Borahae!

2023-07-03 01:04:48 +0000 UTCBTS' music has the power to move me the way no other music (other than gospel music) can do. They manage to touch a nerve in all of us that either brings a memory into our minds, or a feeling we may or may not have experienced before. It almost always brings tears and/or joy. The ability to move people is a special gift, and BTS demonstrates it well. Love your reactions--they bring back memories of my first times hearing BTS songs. Enjoy the journey "down the rabbit hole"!
LibLady26
2023-07-02 20:33:59 +0000 UTCJust listening through my headphones, the sound of Army voices rings in your heart, you can't help but be moved.. so imagine being BTS in that moment. It must have been a surreal experience, especially not expecting it💜
Omel
2023-07-02 19:57:17 +0000 UTCHonestly I feel a bit offended/hurt that I have to pay 10 euros a month just to be able to watch something like House of Army. That's almost as much as I have to pay for Netflix and doppelt as much as I pay for Asia Viki. Is the 5 euros per month not enough? I'm not rich, I'm jobless girl with depression who was hoping to see your reaction to something fun like Carpool or House of Army. I know you film a lot of content for us and put a lot of effort into it, but is 10 euros really necessary? Because I really like your videos I would really like to be able to see everything, but I can't because I pay "only" 5 euros a month. I'm not an english speaker and I used google translate so I'm not sure if "offended" is really the word I was trying to say
Loredana de Caro
2023-07-02 18:15:17 +0000 UTCYoung forever is Jimin's favorite BTS song, he even has it tattooed, which is also why he was so emotional
Johanna
2023-07-02 15:51:07 +0000 UTCI watched this so many times and it always gets me and brings me to tears.
camshie castro
2023-07-02 15:48:14 +0000 UTCWhen you did Mikrokosmos my very first thought was 'and what's about Young Forever'? These 2 songs belongs together for me since I saw this live performance for the first time. (Now For Youth also!) And if you want to know how an Army felt at this moment in Wembley stadium why not asking Louise (weez, one of your patreons) all about it? She was there. 💜 Thank you for this emotional reaction. I'm looking forward to ARMY Day and what Jordan want to show us. Borahae!

2023-07-02 15:28:05 +0000 UTCMight as well after all that 🤣🤣

2023-07-02 15:09:29 +0000 UTCAhhhh this one always makes me cry. What a special moment between BTS and ARMY. I love how genuine the boys are too, they were so touched.
Cara
2023-07-02 14:46:42 +0000 UTCThese special moments start off the song For Youth. Every time I hear or see it, I get emotional. Young Forever is one of my favorite songs by BTS. The first time I saw it was very raw. The guys were stunned and I was so proud to be ARMY in that moment. I've still never seen them live, but this is the best live minute ever! 💚

2023-07-02 14:36:13 +0000 UTCOh,.I am a wrek anytime I hear this 😭💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 thanks for watching this.. if you want a more closer look, there are many other good fancams for this which captures each of the members whole speeches and expressions.😀
swathi m
2023-07-02 14:35:29 +0000 UTCFavorite part of this reaction is watching Jared become obsessed with background music ... . Jordan takes one for the "team" and only he listens as Jared takes headphones off ... jordans expressions as he caters to his bro ... thennnnnnn Jordan gets hypnotized by said song ... Jared becomes jealous ... Yall better just do a deep dive into Truth Untold. 😏 ... geeeezzz..

2023-07-02 12:29:25 +0000 UTCThank you guys 🙏🏽 I always cry when I see this..
Flingan68
2023-07-02 10:45:58 +0000 UTCJungkook gifted us a song "My You" for 2022festa which will be released officially on 3rd july. It's a beautiful song. "Still with you" by jk is the 2nd song that will be released as well. Jk wrote and produced these two for ARMY.💜
prachi sahu
2023-07-02 09:15:26 +0000 UTCYou were right it was "my youth" where they start the song with the audio of this day💜 when you deep dive into "Young Forever" you will understand why this song is so important and close to BTS , it's all in the lyrics 💜(Jimin even has YOUNG FOREVER tattoo that's why he said this song gave him comfort) PS- The fireworks last month on festa was also soo good i've never seen something like that you should definitely check that out sometime.
prachi sahu
2023-07-02 09:10:48 +0000 UTCThank you for your reaction to one of the greatest moments for the history books! Even if some of us weren't there, we can feel the mutual respect and love between Army and BTS through the screen.💜💜 The grandpas pictures are killing me 🤣🤣 I wish BTS would see them. 1:44 I hope you will upload the live performance (or the whole show) with RM from Festa this year. 🙏 Also, not only JK's standalone single “Seven“ will be released on July 14th but his songs “My You“ and “Still With You“, uploaded on Soundcloud, will be released on streaming platforms on July 3rd (1pm KST or 0am ET). Both are songs composed and written by JK without a MV but I hope sooo much that you will react to the jazzy song “Still With You“ in particular! If you‘ll be reacting to “My You“ as well, please consider that JK created the song (lyrics and melody) spontaneously in his birthday livestream from messages army was supposed to send on weverse the day before. It was a lengthy process and if you are interested in the making of you can watch the first hour of his 2 1/2 hour birthday livesteam on Sept 1st, 2021. He had started the livestream the day before. Fun fact, JK had to change some lyrics before releasing the song due to copyright issues because some Army had sent him lyrics they had from google 😆 40:35 If you want to remember the logos, just think about the Army logo as a shield (army protects BTS) and the BTS logo looks like an opening door (they invite us to their Magic Shop).

2023-07-02 09:03:43 +0000 UTCI kept thinking about that too when Tae was making his promise to ARMY
Laurie Brennan⁷
2023-07-02 06:12:07 +0000 UTCThis was really beautiful! As an Army, if I can call myself that, I was aware of this moment, but unaware of when it happened. I thought they sang this as an intro to Young Forever. I now better understand why this was the intro to For Youth. BTS stated that they will never forget this and they truly haven’t. This was really beautiful! Thank you for sharing. Jordan, July 9th brother! We can’t wait!!! Borahae 💜 💜💜

2023-07-02 02:00:05 +0000 UTCi'm 99% sure Tae would hang the 3rd one in his house

2023-07-02 01:07:45 +0000 UTClol, RM was using a British word. When we want to say we are tired we say the word knackered
Laura_
2023-07-02 00:32:02 +0000 UTCOmg!!! I wanted y’all to feel this….Every true Army deserves to be a part of this and some of us will never see them in concert…….but it’s just something so beautiful to see and even more beautiful to feel….if you remember back to another song they released with “Proof”. FOR YOUTH ..young forever is the song being sung at the beginning before it goes into For Youth…so clearly this did what it was meant to do….create a moment for the boys that they will never forget….every army wants to tell BTS what they mean to us and in some way this gives us that feeling💜💜💜Thanks as always for your hard work and dedication…y’all are Army to your core💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Angie7
2023-07-02 00:28:20 +0000 UTCI would’ve given everything to be a part of that special moment 🥺🥺 and ALSO correct me ARMY if I’m wrong but isn’t Wembley Stadium, 90k not 60k??
Johana
2023-07-02 00:16:44 +0000 UTCThank you so much for this. This video is so moving and makes me so emotional all the time. It makes me so so honoured and proud to be Army. They meant it when they said we will remember this forever because Army singing young forever is at the very start of for youth. It’s forever so special and I am beyond grateful for it all. Thanks so much guys borahae 💜💜

2023-07-02 00:15:14 +0000 UTCThis video still makes me emotional to this day 🥺💜

2023-07-01 23:14:20 +0000 UTCthe firewok show in Seuol was amazing too the firework was spelling words like bts and army. but of you react to that just make sure you have listened to all the hit songs. i think most of them was played at busan concert. maybe an arny know the complete list of songs just to make sure

2023-07-01 22:38:54 +0000 UTCThe song is very important to Jimin so much so that he even has Young Forever tattooed on his arms at the back 🥺💜
Alishea
2023-07-01 22:34:53 +0000 UTCThis was a special song for Jimin, it got him through some really tough times and I think that's why he was so overcome.

2023-07-01 22:21:55 +0000 UTCAnd if I'm right this was the first time it had ever happened. I think they did it at other concerts after this?

2023-07-01 22:10:20 +0000 UTCSadly Tae couldn’t keep that promise as COVID hit and their tour was cancelled. They haven’t been back to London yet. I’ve watched this so many times but still can’t get through it without crying. There is some fan-cam footage showing their ending comments and they do the wave twice with the crowd using their ARMY bombs. The mood is very light and fun so the impact of the crowd singing really catches them off guard as Mikrokosmos was to be the very last song of the night. I can’t even imagine the flood of emotions that 60, 000 ARMYS singing would impact them but it feels like a reciprocal warm hug through the screen. This is special! 🫰🏻💜🫰🏻💜🇨🇦

Cheryl ⁷ Lambert
2023-07-01 21:56:47 +0000 UTCThe first time I heard this I cried for a while. It was incredible. Just seeing them receive that same kind of love they've been giving army all these years. They now use this piece with army singing in the intro to "For Youth." I'm not sure if its from this very moment but it certainly reminded us of this moment when we heard it. Thank you guys for doing this reaction. It was nice to experience it again with both of you. Love you 💜💜

2023-07-01 21:53:15 +0000 UTCOkay but let me just add to the tears..several members' family members and Bang PD were there in the crowd. Can you imagine the palpable pride? 🥹💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
viperine
2023-07-01 21:53:11 +0000 UTCas we have seen time and time again, there is a constant battle between ARMY and BTS to show each other love and support and admiration for one another, BTS drops a fan song, ARMY drop a song, BTS participates in humanitarian work and ARMY is right behind them supporting and donating. The relationship that has been created this past decade is something no one and nothing can ever break. speaking of Love Letters, i don't know if you guys heard but the song was taken down from all streaming platforms, because some antis and people from other fandoms decided to mass report the song and ruin the experience and hard work of so many people. I am livid, as are so many others, and I don't know if the song will ever be back on stream. Thank you boys for the reaction as always.

2023-07-01 21:23:14 +0000 UTCI'm not a particularly patriotic person but seeing this moment happen at Wembley makes me feel so proud to be British. Of course I know there would have been many Army's who travelled from all over the world to see them, but just knowing this happened in my country fills me with pride. Wembley showed their love in the most beautiful way possible. The only thing I hate about watching this, is that I wasn't there! It would have been so easy for me to get there but BTS hadn't found me yet and it's one of my biggest regrets! If only I could go back in time and beat my younger self over the head with Bangtan then I could have experienced this magical moment in person! 😭💜
Kathy⁷
2023-07-01 21:21:54 +0000 UTCYou can tell there was magic in the air that night. I wish I could have been there and have experienced something so wonderful. I will forever be touched by the boys’ reactions to this beautiful surprise. The way Hobi closed his eyes and listened to ARMY, Jungkook and Jimin’s tears, and the way the rest of the members looked into the audience with so much love in their eyes. I can’t listen to this song and not think of this moment. The day they realized that in the world of music we all speak the same language. I also remember Jimin saying that “young forever” is the song that lifted him up the most when he was in the darkest of places. The song holds so much meaning to him that he decided to get it tattooed. 💜💜 I’ve been waiting for you guys to react to this!! Thank you 😊

Cheryl ⁷ Lambert
2023-07-01 21:04:53 +0000 UTCI was at this concert and the energy there was amazing. Being in the crowd while ARMYs sang to BTS is an experience I’ll never forget. I don’t have the words to describe this event during the concert. I remember once Mikrokosmos started playing I started bawling and so did the girl next to me. I was very lucky to be there and will never forget it. 💜💜💜
