MINI FIELD DAY! | Our Reaction to “Run BTS!” 2023 Special Episode (PART 1)

Today we get our monthly dose of chaotic child-like competition…in the best form possible: RUN BTS!

The rules for today’s games were much easier for us to understand (compared to game rules in the “Next Top Genius” episode)! 

We have never heard of soft fencing, but are now INTRIGUED. It seems like the perfect game for 5-year-olds, 95-year-olds, and anyone in-between to play! V surprised us with his focused bounce. Who would be interested in seeing a Jared & Jordan soft fencing match!? 🤺🤺

The adapted version of RUN BTS volleyball was also highly entertaining. Hobi’s child-like ARSON-ball energy, RM's sturdy and instinctual style, Suga using his head, JK attempting to use his feet, V’s high serves and bump passes to himself, Grandmaster Jin’s practice bumps, Jimin’s near splits…this was clearly a game of strategy.

Let us know if/when we should check out PART 2! We’re selfishly hoping that BTS pre-recorded enough of these episodes to last us the next two years. However, we realize that would be an unfathomable amount of filming for the members to have recorded prior to Jin’s departure, and are grateful for however long it will last 😊


ARMY, 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!! 💜💜

MINI FIELD DAY! | Our Reaction to “Run BTS!” 2023 Special Episode (PART 1)

Comments

This was very fun to watch. Especially the bias against bias match. 🤣

Kiki

Remember V acted in a historic drama called Hwarang and he had to learn to horse-ride, use the sword etc. Don't underestimate V 😁😁

Pacific Pacific

Ah love it! Yes, do not worry. You all have enough from beginning to present to watch one a week and still have more to go so there's that. Also, not sure if it's just me, but with Run BTS it's ok to turn up the enjoy dial more!!! I know yall love to analyze (I do too trust me on mv, teasers, etc) but here is when you can just chill and enjoy. As you learn more Korean, the culture, and their personalities, you'll just laugh the entire time and become so invested that you'll forget that they're on the screen and not right in your living room! Enjoy!

Melie

The ISACs is Idol Stars Athletic Championships where a bunch of kpop stars participate in this multi sports competition. BTS used to participate in this a lot in their early days. It’s funny watching V and JK. They’re both athletic and competitive but in different ways. V looks casual but he’s clever and has good technique, and JK seems to have more intensity and less about technique but just sheer/natural athleticism. And as Suga has said, Jimin is a hard worker. I’m always fascinated with those details cuz I grew up playing soccer, and I learned there’s different kinds of athleticism. Here’s a good compilation of BTS at the ISAC. And as always, they kill it lol https://youtu.be/J5Y6D9L5i1o . I love part 2 of this run bts cuz they play soccer and get all excited to celebrate like kylian mbappe, one of my favorite players today lol

Selina T

Truly guys, as Tami says, leave any analytical thinking out of it and just enjoy, it's more fun that way! They make no sense sometimes, some due to things relating to their culture so get used to just relaxing and having a laugh!

Singa7⁷

Well said! 👍

Singa7⁷

Strange, don't remember getting a notification for this one....

Singa7⁷

You should watch part 2 as soon as you can - it's the funniest episode they've ever done. However...watching you two keep stopping to try and understand every detail stressed me out - turn Analyst Mode off and just enjoy! The rules aren't that important - you can usually pick it up as you go if you're paying attention, or just watch and figure it out later. The guys tend to ignore/make up the rules as they go, anyway (or the directors will change them to reduce cheating and/or keep the show moving). It's all about the chaos and the fun - plus the cheating and betrayals. 😂 They're all competitive and athletic, but it's an entertainment show. RM and Jimin are especially aware of that, and they tend to tamp that drive down and goof around to keep things light and fun; over the years, they've all learned to do that. If you watch the show in order, you'll get to know their personalities, how they think, and their strengths and weaknesses as players (and thus appreciate the moments when they surprise us, like V did in these episodes). Once you get used to reading the subtitles, you can also appreciate the editors' cheeky sense of humor (their on-screen comments are translated in brackets) - you can tell they love the boys as much as we do, and often include inside jokes and memes from the fandom. Watching them play sports like this is great, but so is watching their reactions to learning new skills or being put in unusual situations. Run BTS lets them have all sorts of new experiences and bring ARMY along for the fun - it's an instant mood-booster. One of the many things I love about BTS is that no matter how competitive things get, it never gets ugly: there's lots of good-natured teasing and trash-talking, but they still root for each other and sometimes help each other even if they're on opposing teams. When the winning team gets a prize (usually food), they share with the losing team(s). They play well with each other, and that makes Run BTS even more fun to watch. 💜

Vartite

I’m so excited to see your reaction on part 2🤭🤭🤭you gonna laugh a lot

Hebah Alramsi

I saw lots of suggestions of you wat hing the fav episodes of Run first, but i disagree. Let me explain, as a viewer it seems like keeping up with the subs and the Run is a bit stressful for you guys, so I think maybe if you continue from the 1st episodes then going in order, you can building your skills to keep up with it. Plus, most of the times, the guys don't take themselves seriously and somehow always find the ways to change the rules as they are playing. That's why I found it hilarious that the staff made them make and oath here at the beginning 😂. Jin screamed when he got 5 because it means that he was up against JK. About Yoongi doing all kind of sport, I think the joke came from how busy Yoongi is, so they are just making it up. Sorry for the long comment, anyway for Run just sit back and enjoy !💜💜 Edit : Dividing the episodes in parts is not just because of the military service, the have been doing it for a long time, some episodes even have 3 or 4 parts.

Sarykely

Hi y’all! Just some feedback when reacting to run bts. I feel like y’all take it to seriously when trying to focus on the rules and all of that takes the fun out of the actual show, so maybe just watch it for fun and it’s ok if you don’t understand everything! I’m pretty sure most army do the same 😊 when you spend too much time trying to understand what’s happening you tend to miss out on just the comical vibe of it all. After all, it is meant to be a fun variety show 😝

Dery

I didn’t see this answered or maybe I missed it but ISAC stands for idol star athletic championships and I believe in their early years BTS participated…that would be interesting for you to react to😃

Angie7

Run BTS have 154 episodes+behind the scenes so it’s more to enough for next 2 years.

Agnieszka_BTS Borahae

If you liked this, you have to watch part 2. It dropped yesterday and it is hilarious! I enjoyed your reactions to this episode. If you compare V from the beginning to now, you will definitely see his glow up. He wasn’t always this good. Thanks guys, I really enjoyed this!!!!!💜

Precious Lafleur

not @ Jared being quick to defend his bias during the final game of volleyball at Tae's no-look move 😂😂

jyn.

Part 2 is hilarious. If the two of you do react to it, focus less on the rules of the game and just enjoy the chaos.

Bethi

V ❤️‍🔥 Southpaws of the world unite ✋🏻😁💜🇨🇦

Cheryl ⁷ Lambert

Anyeong Jared & Jordan, I agree with Mimi that part 2 of the mini field day was the funniest episode. I'm not going to spoil what games they played, but it was hilarious. It's so good to see these type of episode with them goofing around, being competitive and showing their athleticism and just having fun with one another. So it's definitely a must see! Side tracking a little bit, but you should definitley watch or react to Hobi's documentary on Disney+. A very good behind the scenes on him working on his album and preparing days/months leading up to hobipalooza and among other things I'm not going to spoil. It's alway inspiring to see their hard work and determination when they work on either their group stuff or solo endeavors. But it's also sad to see or hear that all the work, time and dedication they put in to their projects/performances, they still feel it's not enough or they could have done better. But overall, only they know the level of perfection they want to achieve and how they want to achieve it and that is why they are so inspiring.

Kindra Peterkin

Don't you mean a BEAR for Tae?🤨🤨 (jkjk, tho he does have a bear on his jacket in this case, Team Bear 4 the win!🔥🔥)

hania

Wahhh the stress on your faces when you can't quite keep up 😆 it's totally fine. Being able to quickly read the subtitles becomes a skill and when it's physical games for Run BTS, you can figure out the rules once they play. A lot of times, they skirt around the rules anyway 😆 Run BTS is the content where they goof around and show their skills; it's so unserious so you guys could just enjoy it. Watch part 2! It's one of the funniest ever.

Mimi

JIN trolling everyone esp SUGA while watching on the side is just so funny to me. And Suga's face every time he denies that he plays that sport 😭😂 Jin: Collapsed to the floor when he got #5. Jared: What's wrong with being #5? Coz he got JK Lol! Everyone's afraid to be matched with Jk 😆 And when it was finally RM vs V, it was like Jared vs Jordan Lol I love it!! This was a lot of fun to watch with you my FAVE bros! However, so sad to say that this is the last episode they filmed with Jin in it. So yes, please get to the next episode too!! Thanks for this reaction!! Borahae 💜

J-Lee

The last episode till 2025... i love it when BTS plays sports

Shalia

jimin does not take these games serious AT ALL. he's just there to have fun lmaoo you'll see that in the new ep🤣

bee

Hobi had me laughing on the floor during these 2 Run BTS episodes lmao

Eternity 7

Tae underwent some training in sword fighting for his historical drama Hwarang and he is ambidextrous, he can switch hands easily

Gunkoiv

Taehyung had practiced swort fencing for his part in the KDrama Hwarang. So he had a little advantage in this episode. 😉 Please watch part 2 soon. It was filmed after the release of The Astronaut and was Jins last appearance before he was enlisted to the military service. All 155 episodes of Run BTS are on YT https://youtube.com/@RUNBTSofficial

Anja⁷

waiting for part 2

Uyen-Vy

I have to agree with you on the 💯!

LIBBY WILSON

I think you guys' reactions are on point. I love the mixed contents you provide to us. BTS has so much content out there, I never get bored looking at them...not to mention so does ARMY! Whatever you two react to, I'm here! I would love to see you both in a soft fencing match. That sounds like a lot of fun for your Patreons. It was intriguing to watch the members having so much fun like they did in "In The Soop" one and two series. Yes I purchased both and they were worth it just like their albums. Thanks for all that you do for us. I know I greatly appreciate the both of you. As a Gold member, it is worth every penny and I will continue my patronage and support for a very long time! BORAHEA 💜 x7

LIBBY WILSON

Oh gosh you definitely have to do Part 2. It’s the icing on the cake! We have to take advantage since we won’t have another episode till 2025 😩 its worth the watch! 😍

ada

Thank you for reacting to this and I look forward to pt 2. I think it's safe to say that Run BTS is your guys' least favorite BTS content, and that is completely OK. Not every piece of content is going to affect all army the same way. I would much rather you guys react to things I know you will enjoy, like Bon Voyage, Rise of Bangtan and song deep dives. Maybe you could ask your patrons for their top 5 favorite Run BTS episodes and react to the most popular ones.

Skylar T⁷

Tae is actually ambidextrous ... like legitimately so. But he was doing the sword fighting with his left hand.

Ashleyder

Taehyung is ambidextrous

Bianca Rebouças

Before ~2021, Run BTS had new episodes EVERY week (with short breaks in b/w)– I don't know how they managed filming that while touring and recording albums, etc! But come about 2021, they took a LONG break, then in 2022, they announced that episodes would be sporadic as they get ready to serve. This episode you just watched will be the last until they are OT7 again.

Seneca

Run BTS used to be every week (there were only 2 long breaks before, other than that it was mostly just a break of one or two months every year), but since 2021 they've just been doing specials every now and then, and this is the last one (Part 1&2) they filmed before Jin left - so no more until 2025. Lucky enough you have a backlog of over 150 episodes to tide you over.

Alix Drifty

Yay I’m glad you guys watched this! I LOVED Part 2, which just dropped today! You guys definitely need to check that out ASAP!! Who do you think will win the whole thing? 🤨 Anyway, sadly this is the last episode we’ll see until they’re all back 😭😭 but the good thing is there is still 100s left to catch up on!

Johana

also about yoongi doing all these sports, he doesn't actually do all that. i guess this is a new inside joke between them where they just say he can do all these random crazy things lol

korgi

That was fun, and Part 2 is even better. They saved the best for last.

Kecia ⁷

recommending some episodes would be awesome!!

Butterful

Although as JK explained in the ep being Southpaw (left handed) was a disadvantage in this game so for Tae to still win 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💜

Kath

Fun!!! Taehyung is ambidextrous. Sometimes he uses his left, sometime his right, even when writing. He's used his left before to have an advantage in games. Just part of his quirkiness! lol

J. Ezbet

watching this before i watch the second part. ;;-;; ily guys

korgi

part 2 just came out today! it’s actually the last episode until they all reunite but u guys have so much content to watch that it won’t be a problem at all!! thanks for reacting to this. i hope u react to part 2 very soon cuz it honestly might be one of my favorite episodes ever 😭

amanda

Recommend you watch part 2 while this one is still fresh in your minds!! Plus it would be a treat for us viewers hehe the second part is even funnier 😆

Tasnima

The subtitles in [BRACKETS] are the translations of the Korean text that the editors add to the video! If you'll notice, there's always Korean text bubbles/etc popping up on screen, commentating on what's going on. (Ex: if Yoongi falls, a Korean text bubble will pop up and say "Clumsy Suga!")

Seneca

Part 2 is even better. 😄

Sunni

Just to explain the subtitles, the normal subtitles of the members talking are on the top and anything in the [brackets] is usually the editors making comments. Taehyung is ambidextrous so he's at an advantage when it comes to these games bc he can switch hands easily, I think he favours his left hand more though. Today part 2 came out and it's the final Run BTS episode for a long time and I'm so sad but I'll be looking forward to watching all the episodes with you both in the near future ^_^

Alishea

there are over 150 Run BTS episodes, some involve cooking, others are more physical activities, and lots more.

willpetdogs

Part 2 is HILARIOUS. I think I cried laughing like 5 times because of Jimin in the next episode. Its honestly top 5 funniest Run BTS episodes ever. Don't worry, theres plenty run BTS episodes left for you guys to watch til 2025. I really like the way you guys are reacting to the episodes out of order, this way you can watch the best/funniest episodes first. Army could recommend to you our favorite episodes to watch.

Shadow Swan

This is part one of the last run episodes we will get until 2025. It's a sad goodbye to RUN BTS for now, especially for armys that were around from the days when RUN BTS used to be aired on Vlive. But in true ARMY fashion we shall wait until it and the boys return. "Tuesdays comfort" as twitter armys call it will come back.

Kallie

YES to soft fencing .... great wind up of that episode @kath 👌

Amani ○°●•7

It was lovely re-watching this with you! Congrats Tae and JK for placing 1st and 2nd each time. They were the mvp’s. It was hilarious that Jin accused them of match fixing and the editors of suspicion of conspiring together. Yoongi and his headers were absolutely hilarious. As was Jin and his funny and outlandish lies and inventions of sports that Yoongi supposedly does. Hobi was hilarious with his hot potato arson Vollyball vs JK. As was Jimin and his roleplays as medic and commentator. Namjoon and his steady athleticism is defo not to be underestimated, I also loved him imitating Yoongi. Also some fun facts, while Yoongi practiced for the sword dance for Daechwita, Jimin did Kumdo (similar to kendo) for 8 years and is a high level. Tae also underwent some training in sword fighting for his historical drama Hwarang. This was such a fun ep. I totally think you guys should try the soft fencing! 💜

Kath

This was an excellent episode. I hope you will react to part 2 very soon while this one is fresh in your minds. Tae was so impressive in these games and clearly having a great time. I love when the guys are just having fun with each other. Run BTS is the best! Great reactions by you both.

A. Brown

Lol the members were all making me laugh saying Suga has been doing all these sports activities that he says he has not. Wrestling. Paragliding. Climbing 🤣🤣🤣 and it continues into part 2 which came out today and is absolutely HILARIOUS 😂 I was really sad to see that it'll be the last episode until they're out of their military service. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Trinda 💜

very true cause if try to understand every rule especially with the language barrier and the cultural differences it can take the fun out of it (depending on the episode).

Shay Peart

I start to believe that Run BTS isn't for somebody who like to discuss and analyse alot. Watching Run BTS is for fun,, to heal your soul. You don't need to understand every rule, Army can't understand too many times. Just sit back and relax

Loredana de Caro

i think the next ep is the last of run BTS but they didn´t say it. i just watched ep and they didn´t mention it but the last ep jk said they had two ep left so i am not sure. but they don´t have many more if any. based on their hair and jins enlistment

leat

'FACE' BY JIMIN COMING MARCH 24TH‼️ PREORDER STARTS TOMORROW (FEB.22.23)‼️

bee

definitely do part two right after, it's absolutely hilarious! so the run schedule was mostly run as a normal tv show would be. they would go a few months every tuesday and then not post for a few months, to film more content i'm assuming. they took almost a two-year break tho and then came back in 2022 with the special eps. we have no idea how many we're gonna get now so we're just enjoying them as we go. btw, the joke with yoongi about the random sports came from the 2022 festa dinner. at least i'm assuming. he said that he had been doing a lot of classes, from morning to night, to fill the day. he actually talks about it more in the new suchwita ep with hoshi.

shelby🖤

Oh yes.. one thing about jk and tae: these boys are COMPETITIVE! 🤣🔥 The part 2 of this episode came out today and it's unfortunately gonna be the last one before 2025.. BUT you have well over 100 episodes to enjoy in the meantime!

soyaspinsxxx

You forgot the part 2 of the next top genius guys 😢

Julieee

Hope that you react to part 2 straight after of at least this episode🤧

IfraH

Guys you didn't react to part 2 of the last RUN BTS episode "the next top genius" yet and you skipped to this episode😭😭

IfraH

this is the last episode that was prerecorded, it will come back when they all return hopefully. Also, good thing is there are a lot of episodes that will last you guys to react to for a good while.

Shay Peart

Its so funny part 2 is even funnier and by the way did you watch part 2 of the next top genius yet?

chantal bavaud

I don’t know when or where I heard or saw this but I agree. Just like old series that are starting over , ARMY will be thrilled to keep watching. New people will find out what many people have been enjoying for years. I don’t think you’ll have a problem finding enough to cover. I have some that I continue to watch and sometimes for days!!! BTS are your heart and joy.

Tricia

Please do the part 2 right away to keep the momentum. It's basically the last episode until who knows when. :(

Yeontae

Yes! Please do follow this with Pt. 2--hilarious! And then you can go back to the classics (of which there are many) while we all slow through the enlistment down-time.

Lisa W

Fun fact: there are little emblems on their track suits and each emblem has an animal. The animals are the ones ARMY gave each member for when they put subtitles on videos. Namjoon-koala Jin-mouse Yoongi-cat Hobi-squirrel Jimin-baby chick Tae-tiger JK-bunny

Joy Jenkins

I can't wait to rewatch this with y'all 🥰 I still need to watch the one that was released today too! It makes me sad knowing this is the last one for a while 🥺

fox

Amo Run BTS 💜 me hace extrañarlos demasiado

Daya Santamaria

Part 2 got released today! https://youtu.be/FDkciHzrZyo (sadly the last new one one until 2025) And also Jimin's first solo album FACE is coming March 24! 🔥💜 https://twitter.com/bighit_music/status/1628047994171068418?s=46&t=oda9j6c-CKkvEq1SJFHclQ

And

this episode is actually the last one till 2025 and the last one with Jin, so I doubt they have anymore planned sadly :( HOWEVER you still have all the other 150+ episodes to catch up on so I'm sure that'll last you guys the 2 years (and there's so much other content to watch if you somehow finish all of them before 2025 lol)

Makayla Vante

MUST. WATCH. PART. 2. IS IT POSSIBLE TO BE FUNNIER THAN PART 1? ... YUPPPPPP... jimin stole the 🏆 for cute AGAIN. 🌌🌌🌸🖤💫💜

Amani ○°●•7

sadly part 2 is the last one the recorded the 7 of them. We need to wait till 2025. But you can continue with the older episodes.

PamTan

Oh you definitely need to watch episode 2 too! I did today and it's the perfect combination of endearing chaos and heartwarming moments 💜

Pommosaurus

yup part 2 was released today lmao

ellesdope

Also, there’s still 150+ episodes of Run BTS you can watch. I don’t think you’ll finish it all by the time they come back in 2025 😂

Ann Dominique

They just released part 2 today! And so much more fun and funnier than the first part 😂

Ann Dominique

Please definitely watch part 2 definitely one of the funniest run episodes

Xyaria Bradford

Can't wait to watch! They just released part 2 today, definitely a must see!
