BTS - “I’m Fine” Reaction | AMBIGRAMS!? (Lyric Video, Doolset + Joint Live Performance!)

Ambigram? Chiastic Structure? What an intellectual treat this was for us 🤯

Today's video is a continuation of a reaction video that we posted on our YouTube channel, where we do a deep dive into “SAVE ME”! If you haven't already seen that video, go check it out now and then come back. We'll be waiting for you…

https://youtu.be/g5kGBMkbE6U

“I’m Fine” was released on August 24, 2018, and appears as the fourteenth track of CD A in BTS’ second compilation album, “Love Yourself: Answer.”

This song is an anthem of pure EMPOWERMENT and GROWTH. It reminds us all that we are HUMAN BEINGS who are not immune from hurt or danger. In fact, we’re meant to fall down. But we’re also meant to get right back on our feet.

🎵괜찮아 (gwaenchanh-a) 괜찮아 (gwaenchanh-a)🎵 - It’s okay, It’s okay!

ARMY, we’ve reached the end of the beginning…it’s TINY DESK TIME! You can watch our reaction to Tiny Desk right now in the ARMY Gold Tier! 

Also, let us know in the comments…what “saved” you? What helped you get to a point of saying, “I’m Fine”?

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!! 💜💜

BTS - “I’m Fine” Reaction | AMBIGRAMS!? (Lyric Video, Doolset + Joint Live Performance!)

Comments

Thank you!! 😊

BTS - Jared & Jordan

Hi J&J, just want to touch on the choreo abit. This is my take on both choreos that you might not have caught. For Save Me, the choreo is slightly chaotic and the members turn mostly OUTWARDS, to seek help (from another person). While I'm Fine, Think of ALL 7 members as 1 person, who's broken (mentally) into fragments, that's how all 7 members started down on the floor (metaphorically). Many parts of the choreo, the members turn INWARD, gathered to one, because he realises he is his own salvation. This person is trying best, to gather fragments and parts of himself, to stand up again. Hope this makes sense :)

Kath Choo⁷

💯 agree

Cheryl ⁷ Lambert

I absolutely loved this reaction!

lou marquez

Gods I loved this reaction. Thank you for allowing us to see your vulnerability. I’m fine is one of my favourite songs and it’s literally saved my life more than once. I think the idea of just coming out of the darkness of grief and pain and suddenly realising you can see the sun again is so compelling. Like, you’re not good yet, but you’re fine, you suddenly know you are going to survive. I can’t think of any other song that shows this moment as well as this.

DanEverybody

Sunshine twins, just like my fellow army friends mentioned above there are sooo many more along the lines that I know you guys will get to eventually hopefully sooner rather than later. We have Tomorrow, butterfly, lost, house of cards, Don't leave me, LOUDER THAN BOMBS ( this song will make your heart feel tight) and so many more. The thought of knowing there is so much for your guys to discover makes me happy 😊

Kirssy Mago

I CANNOT ... I EMPHASIZE CANNOT wait until you react to House of Cards, Butterfly, and Truth Untold by BTS ... my god these songs are so good... theyre slow songs by the guys but the lyrics, the melodies... ugh eargasms

Yani

I hope you guys react to BTS’s Christmas songs!! V has quite a few solo songs about Christmas/Winter (Christmas Tree, Snow Flower, Sweet Night, & Winter Bear) & Jimin has a song called Christmas Love! So I’d love to see your reactions to those songs, as well as the Butter (Holiday Remix) Dance Practice, and the Christmas Carol Medley performance from SBS Gays Dajeon Music Festival! Love your reactions and I hope you both are doing well and enjoy the holiday season!

Annmarie

Oh my gosh, yes!

Selina T

Your words are always so comforting. I needed this video today. Thank you 🙏

Kiki

Totally unrelated to this video....but since you had such a great time watching the cyphers...BAEPSAE IS A MUST MUST THAT BEAT THE LYRICS AMAZING! YOU WILL ABSOLUTELY 💯 LOVE IT. ❤️‍🔥💜

Sunni

-there’s a small part in the “I’m fine” choreography that reminds me of “fake love” the whole entirety of the BU is soo good. I resonate with “I’m fine” a lot

dani monique

The outfits to Idol were iconic. Another masterpiece of song. Telling haters that they’re themselves. So much goodness is waiting for you to dissect

Zoi

The BU is so complex. It consists of songs with notes, mobile games and WEBTOON. Checkout xCeleste’s videos giving an interpretation.

Zoi

thank you for the deep dive once again. this one hits in the feels !!

Lourdes

The BU (bangtan universe) is extremely heavy. Its themes are not for children and imo shouldnt be for teenagers if they arent ready (as in parents should learn the through-story first and decide. the general theme of the songs, with no BU context, are fine usually.)

See, I was only 15 when Save Me came out. I hadn't yet experienced grief and was in the middle of experiencing such constant trauma that I didn't really have much emotional room to process that the song could be more than a "stupid breakup" (yes, thats a quote from my past self). I'm Fine came out just two months after my voluntary week hospitalization for Not Good Thoughts TM. This song came out and HIT ME. I was 17, soon to be 18 just months later, and had saved myself finally from the trauma I was going through when Save Me came out. I didn't need someone else anymore, and never did. This song still makes me cry every single time I hear it. I get a bit nauseous from how breathless I feel when I hear the melody. Oh btw I meant to pace this but uh welp that didn't happen XD guess my assumption id catch up by Wednesday at the latest was a bit silly

Members of QHC

This is what it’s all about. I always appreciate your reactions J&J, but this one hit different. Thank you for always being so open and vulnerable with us. Save Me is my absolute favorite BTS song and I’m Fine has gotten me through the hardest parts of life so far. I lost my mom two years ago and the journey of grief really resonates in these songs for me. Your detour into “Never Would Have Made It” and your words right after really moved me and brought tears to my eyes. I’m so glad I found BTS and so glad I get to share these experiences with the both of you and the rest of ARMY. 🥲 I’ve seen these videos or heard these songs a million times, but your perspectives always give me something new to think about or expose me to something different. thank you thank you from the bottom of my heart for choosing to share with us! 💜

Alana W.

Hey J&J! Today i was listening to Outro:Tear and i found something that could help you undestand a little bit more the lyrics: https://genius.com/a/what-is-the-meaning-of-bts-outro-tear This song represent "The destruction before the resurrection" and it's on my Top 5. Looking foward to the reaction. Lots of love, Nani <3

Nanjareth

I love this song so much! Thank you guys for reacting. I don’t know if anyone else pointed out but something I love about the Im fine performance at the end pose. All of the members are facing Namjoon and Namjoon is the only one facing them. It always makes me feel like they’re saying that to him. That they’re fine, and him saying it back to them as their leader that he’s fine. This song came out during a hard time in their lives. It’s also a song that has helped me through a lot. I hope you guys continue having fun. A song Rec that I love so much is Sea. I hope one that you guys are able to react to that one day! Thank you for everything! 💚

Renssi

Jared, your pronunciation of it’s okay in Korean is spot on brother!!!! I know you enjoyed Tiny Desk. I haven’t even heard of Tiny Desk before BTS. I remember when they first did it. This was my go to video, it got me out staying in my feelings. “ Save Me” and “Spring Day “ sung back to back….WHAT!!!!!! Amazing…

Precious Lafleur

Thanks for this video guys!!! Everything BTS does basically is art and I wish those of us who don't know that, would see for themselves that they are not just the average "boy band" they box them into. I'm happy you got to experience both Save Me and Im Fine. Jordan if Alabama isn't for you, then you guys should drive to Chicago. It's closer and plus I'm here 🤣

LizP⁷⁷⁷⁷⁷⁷⁷

I found the boys in the middle of the pandemic. Dynamite came out and i had already listened to them before because of Boy With Luv, so i heard it and loved the retro. It wasnt until Life Goes On came out that i really appreciated who they were and their message. I had gotten my wedding and graduation cancelled, along with my husband's grandpa passing away all because of Covid. LGO and the BE album really made realize how sad I was and I had to acknowledge it in order to understand why i was beginning to feel depressed. It led me down the same rabbit hole you're in and I've made incredible friends for life because of them. They made me feel like I'm Fine.

Les

I love how the music opens up these real conversations beyond just, "wow, these lyrics are great", or "I love this song." It's difficult to explain this to other people, but I feel like so much of BTS' music speaks to our hearts, not just our ears. And while there are certainly other groups, writers, and artists have this quality as well, for me, none do it as consistently as BTS. It's like they understand on a deeper level what it means to be human.

Raevan21

I have so muuuch to say so I'm gonna apologize in advance for writing an essay. First-- You’ve opened up to us so much as you’ve gone deeper into the rabbit hole. Thank you for sharing a moment of vulnerability with us when talking about your mom and the process of grieving her. My father was recently diagnosed with Parkinson. As a healthcare worker, a speech pathologist in the hospitals, working with adults, I recognized the signs early on but it took so much work and so much pushing to get a diagnosis. When we did, I can’t describe the heartbreak. Since then, it’s been a process of grieving him, watching his decline and knowing how much harder it’s going to get. Some days, I’m all "I’m fine", and some days, I’m feeling "Save Me." I’m glad you had each other then; it’s lovely to see how you have each other still, now. Second-- Re: Steven Pressfield. I loved The War Of Art! Recognizing Resistance makes it so much easier to overcome. That you recommended this book brought so much joy to my heart! The mention of following your dreams while you talked about the book, too, reminded me of something I wanted to mention back in the No More Dream video, maybe, or at least one of your early reactions, about what Yoongi said about it being all right not to have a dream, which brings me to: Third-- one of the things Yoongi has said in many ways over the years is that sometimes having dreams can be an oppressive force. In a radio show once, he said in answer to a listener who gave up on their dream, “I don’t know what circumstances you were in, but I think you must have had tremendous courage. Giving something up decisively takes lots of courage. And, you’ve worked hard.” It’s good to have dreams because they can become fuel for your growth, but sometimes letting them go can be a gift to yourself. Also, it’s okay to not have a dream, to just be happy with an even-keel existence even if it doesn’t have the striving for something greater. Societal pressure to STRIVE can be such a weight, when just existing and finding happiness bit by bit can be difficult enough. I’ve always appreciated that message; I have my own dreams, but the reminder that even if I don’t succeed in them, nothing has been a waste… that has been very powerful for me. As so many of the messages in BTS’ songs are. Fourth-- BTS’ art, in their MVs, lyrics, and ancillary content (especially including the Bangtan Universe, which is a storyline that runs through their early albums, MVs, games, etc.) makes everyone into a philosopher, a poetry analyst, a theorist. They train us to read deeper into the meanings of things, to look beyond the surface level, to connect in different ways. Indigo’s release is coming up and the way people are theorizing and interpreting everything to do with its release is fantastic fun. Watching the two of you familiarize yourselves with the boys, their lyrics, and their messages and expand your readings of their work is equally as fun. Because, Fifth-- being part of a fandom means having a shared context and a shared language. Inside jokes, memes, lexicon… the more you know the more you’re able to learn and the deeper you’re able to connect. The thing about language in general, pardon me as I philosophize, is that it gives us the illusion of connection and understanding, where no language-based understanding can be truly possible. Love means different things to different people because their contexts around the word are all different; for some people it’s painful, or toxic, for some it’s gentle, for some it’s abstract. Even siblings interpret parental love differently, because parents rarely treat their children the same way (twins and other simultaneous siblings might have the most similar experiences, but even these relationships are never perfectly duplicated). But the more points you have in common, the easier it is to feel a sense of communion. ARMY isn’t just a fandom, it’s a family with a long history. You two are doing great, and we love you and love watching you grow into your ARMYdom. Sixth-- And this has to do with points 1 and 5-- I’m not sure if you’ve noticed there’s a difference between your black swan reaction and these? As you’re getting to know us, we’re getting to know you, and you’re treating us more and more like friends who you trust will accept you for who you are. Like Jimin said, “remember there is a person in Korea, in the city of Seoul, who understands you.” And not just in Seoul; but everywhere there is ARMY. So keep singing, rapping, joking, teasing, showing more of your personalities… it’s pretty cute and you’re absolutely right to. We fuckin’ love you. Appreciate all your hard work, as always. Take care, take breaks when you need to. Don’t burn out. Looking forward to what comes next. ETA: your vowel thing with words like "jail" sounds like it might be part of the fail-fell vowel merger which is common in a lot of Southern dialects but pop up in other regional dialects too! How do you say bait, bet, bag, beg, vague, pin, pen, caught, cot?

oooh yall took it to church. There are certain gospel songs that are part of my psyche and have gotten me through the tough spots in my life

Mariah P

All the best for your surgery! 🍀🍀🍀🫶💜

Anja⁷

Cant wait for the Rise of Bangtan ep6 as well!!!!

dyxqdthyfv

They did, they took us to church. 🙌🏼I love that song.

Liz Torres

YES!!!! To Donnie McClurkin Tiffany. That whole album has lifted me up so many times

rowanthea

Happy Belated birthday 🎊 🎉🎊🎂🥳

Liz Torres

I also thought of Marvin Sapp the first time I heard I’m Fine. J&J blew my mind when they made the same connection. ‘Never would have made it’ makes me feel like I can run through a wall and come out the other side perfectly fine. That was such a special moment. Liz I love everything you just said. Thank you

rowanthea

Yesterday was my bday and you guys posted this when I was getting ready to go out for the night with my sister and some friends. I didn’t have time to watch so I decided to wait. And how glad I am that I did. You know, I’m usually more upbeat in my emotions and feelings (at least on the outside) and I tend to just push whatever I feel so far down that it gets lost in the back of my mind and I forget I was ever sad about it at all. However it only takes one thing, the tiniest thing, to send them to the front with a stronger force than before and then I’m spiraling. I spiraled last night. I had some drinks so I was in my head and sifting through those thoughts and emotions in a more open way than usual. I didn’t push them down or rather I couldn’t so I seeked out some music to listen to so my cup wouldn’t overflow with them (lol I listened to Ddaeng to make me hype rather than sad and then I listened to Namjoon’s solo song Trivia:Love which you will get to eventually (it’s on Love Yourself: Answer) it’s one of if not my favorite song by BTS (well ig fav solo). I listen to it whenever I’m down, happy, nervous, for any emotion really. Anyways, I woke up and i was still feeling some of those things. I’m not going to go as far as to say “I’m Fine” cuz I’m not if I’m just willing myself to not feel heavy things but I can say that I don’t feel sad anymore. I thank you both because I needed this. When I watched the Thanksgiving box opening video, I was like ‘Ouu I wonder what they’ll upload on Saturday, it’ll be a birthday present for me’ but I was not at all expecting this. I’m so grateful for it. Anyways, again, I needed this today and I’m glad I waited til now to watch it. Thank you Jared and Jordan. Much love and support always 💜💜

I had to pause and comment real quick before continuing. I love that there’s many gospel songs that I can listen to and love and relate to despite being religious. They’re powerful in their ability to relate to any situation in one’s life. Never Would Have Made It is one of those songs. I just wanted to say that when you guys were listening to it, completely engrossed, there was a moment where an absolutely beautiful, blissful smile slowly spread across Jared’s face. I don’t know why I took notice of it or why it even hit me as hard as it did but it made me a little emotional. At first I thought about how I think that moment of listening to Marvin’s song together in front of those mics will be an unforgettable memory for the both of you. That made me tear up. The bond that you two have is beautiful to see. Then I thought about the many times a smile like that spread across my face. It’s a smile that says sooo much. It’s like going through something, being down and then you began to gradually rise again. At the end of it you just smile in that content way that says “I’ve been through hell but I’m still here and I’m so happy that I’m better.” Like going through grief (of any kind) and realizing that it still hurts and always will have pain behind it but it doesn’t shatter your entire world at one thought of it anymore. I guess that’s what acceptance is. YES, that’s what I’m trying to say. Like that smile of acceptance at the end of a terrible journey that felt like there would be no end because you wouldn’t survive it but you did. I’m Fine feels like that smile. Anyways idk if my rambling makes sense but I had to say it because that one beautiful moment made my mind go everywhere lol

Kia

Musically the songs are also linked. Andrew Berg describes it in this video, he's a jazz musician https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w9FunIxQZvo. (around 13:30) Thanks, hope you guys are having a great holiday!

DJ

Thank you for linking this! I was going to. It's a great video, and Andrew is a great guy.

This Planet Needs a Name

Thank you again for your thoughtful, heartfelt conversation. You share so much of yourselves with us, and it's beautiful. I was really touched by how you talked about us - those of us who hang out in your comments - and I often feel the same way about the people who share their stories with me. 💜

This Planet Needs a Name

I'm so glad I watched this rn on Sunday morning. Marvin Sapp !!! Preach!!! In regard to I'm Fine, I really hope you guys deep dive the 3 Love Yourself albums in order. Each song is a stepping stone to self-acceptance. Wings era to Love Yourself was so important to BTS' story. At a time where the world's attention begun to be on BTS, the guys looked inward to figure out what they want in life.

Beckyboo⁷

Thank you guys for recommending books, I really appreciate it. You were talking about Ego, can you please do a deep dive into MOTS:7 main topic?? Starts with RM’s Persona, continues with SUGA’s Shadow and finishes with Jhope’s Ego, you have heard RM’s and Jhope’s, but wait until you hear suga’s. But please for that you need to focus on Carl Jung’s Map of the Soul theory Additionally, guys if you hear the tracks in albums in order you will understand so much more! Love yourself:answer is a whole story, I’m fine goes right after Epiphany, it will blow your mind.

PamTan

Another great reaction! Thank you guys for the amazing video.💜 You have always asked us how BTS has changed our lives. This time I want to ask you if you have felt BTS has help you with anything personal? Whether it’s how you confront challenges, your mindset, your relationship as brothers, or any personal hardships you have faced. Personally, I felt my relationship with close friends and family change. I feel this sense of deeper love and appreciation for them when I have them in front of me. I am more aware of my words and actions in order to be more honest and considerate or their feelings. I gained faith in humanity and our youth. I also gained myself, my identity and self-worth. BTS pushed me to search for my beliefs, values, and purpose. Have you learned anything about yourself or your relationship with someone else through BTS? They do say BTS finds you when most need it.

alondra ortiz

Not y’all going to church on us😂 I love Marvin Sapp (Testimony by Marvin Sapp I think would be the closest relating to I’m Fine) 💜 another great reaction tho guys, not a lot of reactors react to I’m Fine and I’m so happy that y’all were able to dig deep into this one. Also yall not ready for the BU 😭

Ree

Hello Jared and Jordan! Andrew Berg did a great explanation on how the music has been reversed, not only the lyrics. He comes to it in his video at 14:20 around that time. Check it out, it will blow you mind. I will leave the link to his video right here: https://youtu.be/w9FunIxQZvo Borahae from Germany! By the way, I’m really happy, that I caught the last place in your gold tier some weeks ago. It’s worth it for sure! 💜💜💜

Patricia Ohlenburg

Loved these reactions! If you're interested in a break down of how the music mirrors each other, I recommend watching Andrew Berg's reaction to Save Me/I'm Fine. https://youtu.be/w9FunIxQZvo Oh I hadn't heard "Never would have made it" before, but I got the chills as soon as you played it.

DanielleM

It doesn't sound the same but could the song be Just Fine by Mary J. Blige? The "fine, fine, fine" makes me think of that.

jordyn perry

Hey a border party, I’m down for that when the weather gets better. Toronto isn’t that far away 😂🤗💜💯🇨🇦

Cheryl ⁷ Lambert

as an alabama army, there's always room for you here 😽 i really can't wait until y'all get into the BU, i'm sure the videos are gonna be like 8 hours long lmao

브리타니 brittany

The whole Love Yourself series is so special and came into my life at a time when I hated myself. Songs like I'm Fine, Epiphany, Magic Shop, Answer, Love Myself and Idol were like a lighthouse for me. I am really glad you guys did such a great deep dive on these 2 very special songs and gave them the respect they deserve.

Chris Augustine

Jared & Jordan: Hello! My Name's Elyssa and I have been a member of the Gold Tear for a short amount of time but I wanted to advance to this tear because of your thought processes into the music I hold dear to my heart and the different perspectives you place on the music from your own experiences which to me is the best thing about music how I could interpret a song is completely different to how you could interpret the song lyrics. I'm not sure what I would say "Saved me to the point I could say that I'm Fine" But if I had to put my finger on what that was it would have had to be Music in General. Music has always been apart of my life in one form or another. When I was younger I was a very shy individual especially in a new town and school district I didn't really make many friends until I got into Choir and Singing. This is when I started opening myself up more and more. But I truly didn't consider myself Fine until I discovered BTS and their infectious personalities that even for the smallest of nuances could make me smile or laugh with the craziest expression. But, I might have been fine on the outside on the inside though it is taking me my whole life to be fine with myself inside with my own thoughts and feelings. But BTS helps me come to terms with those feelings and embrace them and my faults one by one making me just the tiny bit better.... One line I love from the Song that really first introduced me to BTS which was DOPE is the line "I reject rejection" I just love the many different meanings this line has... This has to be one of the longest comments I've left on a BTS reaction Video. I Just wanted to get out all my thoughts while watching this video and the Tiny Desk Video. Thankyou for all that you add to the BTS And ARMY community! keep doing what you're doing and spread Joy through your videoes and knowledge!

BtsOT79798

Ahh once again your analysis and interpretation on both of these songs are on point!! My FAVE amongst everything was "You can accept help" 🥹🤧 Thank you for that, Jared. That's a real and very helpful message to anyone and everyone. 🙏 Now you've got another word that's used very frequently "gwaenchanha". You'll hear that most of the time, esp in Kdramas, means It's okay or It's alright. I like that word so much, along with "Araso" 💜 Thank you for these videos my FAVE brothers!! It totally made my weekend. Borahaeeee 💜💜💜

J-Lee

Jared & Jordan, I want to say that you are deserving of all the love you receive 💜 Music is so powerful and healing and it has connected all of us to this exact moment. Thank you for sharing “I Never Would Have Made It” with us, it was my first time hearing it, and it’s beautiful. To all ARMYs here going through something, remember that it does get better and we are all here to support each other. I’ll be upgrading to ARMY Gold Tier soon 😩 can’t get a enough of your videos 😁😁 Borahae 💜

Johana

I vote for a road trip north to Canada! I'm in Southern Ontario which is not a far drive from upstate NY 😁Not sure where the rest of Canadia Army on here are, but wouldn't it be fun if we all meet one day, listen to music, and chat about life? Start with Cyphers, Ddaeng, and all the rap line songs to pump it up, then dance it out, and end with something mellow like Serendipity or Singularity. 🤣 I love your analysis of all the tiny details in their dance performance of I'm Fine! To answer your question, I wish there's a definitive point that says "I'm fine" for me. It's a battle of ups and downs on the daily for me, but I can happily say that I'm getting closer to it. I'm starting to appreciate the goods more, cherish the present, and seeing the bads not as a dark gloomy clouds, but a reason to treasure the good moments much much more! And I can happily share that your videos make the tough weeks fly faster and the good weeks that much better! 😀

Pommosaurus

Loved you reaction to both "Save Me and I'm Fine." Such deep meanings behind the lyrics and their passion in performing every lyric of it making the song together with visuals even more meaningful. You guys are incredible. I think I just became OT9, you have my heart together with these incredible 7 men. All my love 💜💜

Liz Torres

It is surely about growth. BTS writes songs about what they know. As young people it is hard to stand alone when you are going through struggles. That’s what save me is referring to. Needing someone by your side to help you through those moments. When I’m fine came out, they were at a different point in their lives. They realized that they have the strength to get through those times on their own. I’m fine was on the Love Yourself: Answer album, which is the third LY album. That album is about realizing that the one you should love is yourself before trying to love someone else. Being self-sufficient and self-aware is a big part of loving yourself.

Susan Grayson

Hi lads! Like many others, BTS found me when I needed them the most. I was on the verge of giving up entirely, but they reached out and pulled me back, acting as my tether to this world. What I took away from I’m Fine is that saying those words is as much of a reassurance to the people around us that we’re doing well as it is a declaration for ourselves that we are, indeed, okay. Most of us that suffer from any kind of mental health-related issue feel that we are burdens to those around us that try so hard to understand and help in any way that they can. Because no matter how hard we try to conceal our feelings and hide our suffering, those who truly love us can see through the smokescreen and know that we are dealing with stuff that they have no idea how to fix, making them feel helpless. So this song is that reassuring hug or squeeze of the hand as if to say, “I’m not at my 100% yet, but you don’t have to worry because I am fine.” SUGA even said in the song: “you’ve worked so hard,” “set aside your worries now,” “enjoy,” “we so fine.” For some, they’ve halted their entire lives just to dedicate them to helping out their loved ones in need. So this is as much a tribute to them as it it to ourselves. It’s like saying, “We’ve worked hard, we’re doing so well, it’s time to let go now and live your life. Can’t you see? It’s your help that got me to where I am now. So even if I fall, I know that I’m never alone because you’ll be there to help me up. But you don’t have to put all your focus on me. I’m okay now. It’s okay to let go. Set aside your worries. Enjoy your life. I’m fine.” And we are fine. We may not be tomorrow or a few days after that. But we know now that eventually we will be. For those who have no one to rely on, it’s okay, you are your own superhero. You’re here, you’re still here, and I’m proud of you. But to those who do have people around them, don’t forget to thank them. Sometimes, the most difficult thing to do is to be kind to ourselves. I still forget to do it most of the time. But try it. Little by little, that’s how. These boys are something else, aren’t they? The stars truly aligned when they came together, and we are so lucky and blessed to witness their magnificence. I love them with every fiber of my being, and I thank you for your open mind, kind heart, utmost respect, and absolute adoration for them. Cheers, Jared and Jordan. I hope you’re doing well. Sending you love from my corner of the world.

Hanna

Yes! It's called a "double bias" or "'ship"☺️💜 #vmin

Tiana

Oh my, you got me playing Marvin Sapp 🙏 He is one of the best thank you

Addie Jupiter

Yes, the choreo itself was them lifting each other up. If you noticed, in Save Me they fell on the ground too many times. Not only the lyrics are the exact opposite, but as well as the choreo.

Angela

idk about alabama but there's a room ready for you over here in Louisiana whenever you want. just give me a heads-up so i can get a good gumbo or something ready. and yes I'm so excited about the bangtan universe content! we're so close to starting it. if you think this is cool and artistic you're in for quite a treat with the bu.

shelby🖤

Hi, Jared and Jordan. Your reactions to I'm fine was great! After watching your reaction, I searched for the song Jordan was trying to remember. I think I got the right one. I tried to match it up with the chorus you were humming. Found a lot of great new artists when doing my search but I think the song that you were humming was Burn by Elli Goulding. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yr9ZaCSyL_c. I hope it is because it would have driven me crazy if I didn't remember the song I was humming and I don't want that to happen to you. Have a great night!

With I’m Fine, I‘m always amazed by the live performances how they are able to keep up with the singing and crazy choreo at the same time. Suga‘s verse… 😮‍💨

Absolutely loved your reaction guys. 💜 to answer your question, bts has saved me countless of times in my years of being an army. Life has been hard and still is so hard, with so many challenges especially this year as you already know. I'm still pushing through, still trying to live on and eventually be happy and love myself. Bts will always be my truly one lifesafer, bts as a one; the music, their lyrics , their messages, everything. But also aside from their music. Jin, Yoongi, Hoseok, Namjoon, Jimin, Taehyung & Jungkook every each one of them will always heal me in different ways. Namjoon's speeches and incredible mind, Yoongi's lives where he comfort army and his journey with social anxiety and depression. Jin's laughter and lives where he play games. Taehyung's smile and lives where he play with us armys and share his favorites songs atm. Jimin's smile and shyness and the comfort in his voice. Jungkook with his lives where he play songs and just sit there and enjoying the music he plays and sing for us. I can go on and on, but every each of them is very healing. and to think that there's music help people so much, and heal and make us see things in a different light, but not only the music is so powerful and magic, but so are their personalities. Watching them, making me grow slowly every day. I am OT7 all the way, always has been, and always will be. Yoongi is my bias, and probably always will be my bias, and i enjoy the s# out of the raps and the flows etcc, but i am most into the rnb, the soulful side that makes my ears melt and makes my stomach upside down. It just hits different. But because Yoongi is my bias is because i can relate to him the most, him sharing his ups and downs with mental health issues in his lyrics sticks into my heart. He is such a role model to me, him being in the biggest group, going on tours, doing all of the crazy things while having social anxiety is just so powerful to me. I've anxiety and agoraphobia and possible autism (i'm being checked for that) life is not easy, i can't do thing's that's so normal for other people, i can't do things that i might want to do in life, because of the things that holds me back. Like, going out alone for a walk, i can't do that because will get scared and feel extremely unsafe and have a huge panic attack. So i basically stick to being at home and staying there as long i possible can until someone pulls me out and take me out for a day or so, even through i know that's not healthy, and it get lonely at times, but its my safespace, i don't have to talk to strangers or them looking at me i don't have to put all of my energy into trying engage in a social engagement and be "destroyed" after. It's my normality, i've been like that since i was little and i'm okay and comfortable like that. But seeing Yoongi makes me want to do more, bts makes me want to live more, cause i haven't really been living in my lifetime. I'm sorry for the long comment haha 💜 borahae 💜

"I need you" from Bantan Multiverse. Can't wait to see your reaction🥰 It'sheavy and sad but the meaning behind it for me is relatable❤️‍🔥 #MyFav #I need you💜 #BloodSweat&Tears💜

Jared and Jordan, you two are truly amazing at what you do! I loved everything about todays reactions from Tiny Desk this morning to Save me and I’m Fine! Thank you, thank you for what you do and your sharing with us and your time you give us! Love you guys! 💜💜💜

Loved the reaction as usual! You touched on what saved me in your thoughts after seeing the "I'm Fine" choreo - and it was learning when and how to ask for help. I had made myself a really good group of friends, but did not know how to even admit to them that I wasn't fine. It is something I still work on. It's part of the reason "Save Me" was one of the first songs I heard from BTS that I really latched onto and played again and again - I had to learn how to get to a point where "I'm Fine" wasn't a lie that I told to myself and others.

That’s so very sad. My heartfelt condolences on the loss of so many loved ones so quickly. 🤗💜💜🇨🇦

Watching the dancing to I'm fine reminds me of the most important thing to do when someone falls down in hard times - just be there stand by them and listen offering no answers. You do not have the answers but your presence or even listening over the phone is enough to let them know they are valuable cause what they are going through is a process to better days. So many times we think we need to say something, but I have learned from singing at many funerals, watching what happens, that just sitting quietly holding their hand - your presence is more powerful than loose words of nothingness that do not comfort. BTS is there for each other. V once told the story of how Jimin listened to his heartache - Jimin told him he didn't have an answer for him (V) but he was there to support him as he journeyed through his difficult time. V/Tae talks about it all the time and how it meant so much to him. Jimin got permission to share it with the members and they cared for and supported V/Tae through that moment in time. Brothers.

1. When you played Marvin Sapp's song, I also thought of Donnie McClurkin's song 🎵 We fall down, but we get up...🎵 - that fits this as well 2. It's so fitting that Hobi is the one who goes around picking people up first as he is the group's sunshine 3. At the end of the performance for I'm Fine, all the members are facing RM (I just love all of the meaning they put into everything they do!)

First of all, thank you so much for this video! I have been waiting for this for sooo long! The combo Save me/I'm Fine is one of my favorite things BTS ever did. One thing that I think you might have missed is the fact that the opening of both songs is almost identical. They re-used the iconic beat from Save me for I'm Fine. Which accentuate the twin side of those songs. I also find it really fun, I like trying to guess which one is coming up when I listen to my playlist on shuffle (and I've gotten pretty good at it haha) I love both of these songs so much but I'm Fine holds a very special place in my heart. I will always remember my first time hearing it. I was taking a walk, headphones on, music blasting, and suddenly this song came on. I always play my playlist on shuffle so when I discover a new artist I like to put a few random songs I haven't listened to yet in my playlist to discover them whenever they decide to pop up. So I'm Fine came on and let me tell you I wasn't ready for it. At first, I thought it was Save me starting but to my surprise, it wasn't. I do not speak Korean so I couldn't understand the lyrics but I understood the meaning anyway, as I often do with BTS's songs. I heard the lyrics "I'm fine" and I knew this one was gonna hit me hard once I'd get to the lyrics. And it did. Even more than I thought haha the whole ambigram thing made my English major's heart happy. But it was more than that. I discovered this song after a really dark period of my life and it felt like a reward. Like BTS was congratulating me for getting better and saving myself. They were telling me it was ok for me to be fine again but also that it was ok not to be fine sometimes. I needed that.

Johanna

When I was having a really hard time with life in general and just needed to be told that it's okay to not be okay and that everything will work out in the end and I will be fine, there is a playlist I would just dedicate a time to just listen to and get back up onto my feet, which I still use. And some of the songs in this playlist in this specific order is Save Me, I'm Fine, Outro: Wings, So What and finally On and then I'd be good to go. I'd have the energy to keep on fighting another long and tiring day. And come home at the end of the day knowing I did it. I made it. I won another battle.

I’m in too 🤗let’s me know

These are fantastic songs. BTS is soooo good at pulling at the heartstrings. These songs, including Spring Day, are the hardest, yet most helpful mentally, songs for me to listen to. Save Me and I’m Fine got me through my father dying a few days after Christmas in 2019. I had 3 Uncles to pass in 2021, all within 6 months, and I listened to Spring Day as we were driving to the church to comfort me. Spring Day pulled me into a big hug, kissed my forehead, said it was going to be alright and continued to hold me throughout the song. It’s an amazing song. Get ready to have your life/heart change! 💜

Jeanene

Paradise is top three for me. It spoke to my soul as well! 💜💜💜

Jared! 🎵 Yeahh, I'm knooow 🎶 ... your impromptu singing made my day 😂 Thank you (RM voice)

Tiana

"The darkness of the night shakes awake my sleeping dreams, but I'm not afraid, I'm fine I'm fine". When this first came out, I took this as pain, or darkness, or uncertainty can make you be fearful of tomorrow or the future. (that can be relationship, friendship, goals, work etc). You may be trying to live in a happy state or stay positive while being hit with reality hard at times which can be negative or difficult. But the beautiful thing is, you can control how your react or respond. You can come with a working solution, work with your lover, friends, or whomever as you confront the reality you are living. You do not have to be afraid or fearful as you are closer to achieving that goal, or continuing the relationship / growing with the person you love, or whatever your situation may be. That was my take upon first hearing the song when it came out.

Melie

Oh my gosh guys "Never would have made it," is my go to, especially when I have gone through a hard struggle, trial/ tribulation and I come out in front it because of God's unwavering love. Then I look back and get this overwhelming feeling of gratitude. This song hits my heart like a drum. Because it is sooo sooo true. Jared & Jordan I love you guys 💜💜🙏🏼🙏🏼. This was such a moment for me. Amen!

Liz Torres

If you go dive into spring day song and music video (especially the music video) then you’ll experience more of this 🤯🤯🤯 lol. That, and blood, sweat and tears

Selina T

Too bad you should have seen the live performance where the "Save Me" wording changed to "I'm Fine". It was pretty cool

LaLaJin

this is such good songs both of them and the dance match together BTS always tells a story with their movements. it´s not only cool moves, it is movements that has a meaning. that is yet another deep level of BTS

leat

Great reaction as always! 💜 If you want more great bsides from the guys, please watch Festa Room 2021.

Yeontae

….and Marivin Sapp. You guys are the gift that keeps on giving

rowanthea

Michelle Obama and Steven Pressfield well damn. The beauty of these two songs is the introspection they cause. Loved loved loved how honest you guys were during these songs.

rowanthea

I loved your reactions thank you ❤️ and to answer your guys question to what saved me. I’m of course gonna say BTS because they did save me many times in life but who truly saved me and even now keeps saving me is a person who became an angel couple years ago who’s name is Kim Jonghyun who is from group called SHInee. He truly is my savior and I’m always thankful for him. He understood me when no one would understand me, there was a moment were I was in my room hold a handful of pills ready to overdose myself and end everything but suddenly I hear his voice coming from my laptop and it was interview of Jonghyun talking about depression, anxiety and how people don’t people struggle with mental health but he did and he was proud of how far we came even when we are struggling. Sadly no one understood him so he lost this fight but he is still with me and with us in our memories and heart. Anyways I will stop there cause even writing this is making me cry 😢 ( you girl still needs to work tomorrow 😂). But even when he is not in this life time now I’m always thankful for him for becoming my grading angel from above. Sorry this was not about bts but I had to share it since he truly saved me and bts gave me a reason to be alive 💜

Aisha

There's just an entire list to be honest lol

Melie

shoutout Cheryl !!!!!!!

Emily Giovanna

Yes it is! Cannot wait for them to watch that

Melie

This is also connected to FAKE LOVE as the SAVEME/I"M FINE is it also. I can't wait for you guys to react to "Louder Than Bombs"

Daphne Schaffer

And yes I'm fine vs. save me and how it takes you from depending so heavily on a person to save you or pulling you out of everything all the time. But I'm fine says hey it's ok I am ok and fine. I cannot wait until you see the mirror of more mv. Especially Boy in Luv --- Boy with Luv. It has a similar pattern.

Melie

Oh they are going to have a field day. I almost want to see a live reaction tbh lol

Melie

I can’t wait for blood sweat and tears omgg

Hannah

Yes! They are telling a story. I'm fine is part of the Love Yourself era. You will get there and you will see the response to some of their earlier music as it relates with growth and even just stages of life. Ah there's just so much. Ok let me keep watching hahaha.

Melie

Thanks for the great reaction. These are songs that are so close to my heart for their message. I know we’re currently on a journey with predominantly title tracks and hit songs but some of their really powerful stuff is hidden in their B-sides. Like these two(although Save Me was a big hit). Another one that I absolutely love is “Paradise” (much less known). It’s a song that spoke to my soul and gave me the courage to stop waking a path that I knew was not helping me love myself. Can’t wait for you to get to it 💜

Tharikha Lakshmi

oh those RM pills still in full effect JnJ!

Aylaᴿᵖʷᵖ

Ah can't wait for you guys to see the Permission to Dance concert performance of Im Fine and Save Me back to back! I was there those days, unforgettable experience.

I didn't expect you guys to react to one of my favorite songs this early! The live performance at Jimmy Fallon is immaculate, this song isn't easy to perform. I can't wait for you guys to get to more songs of their Love Yourself albums, I know you will love it, they have real gems in it. You nice keep going 💜

Hi again ARMY. I vote for you take a road trip to Canada (Cheryl and I and other Maple ARMY will meet you at the border..lol) That will give you time to replay everything you have reacted to so far…lol. Michelle Obama for President! Such a classy, well spoken woman. Jordan with the stank face when they took us to church. I love that you guys had each other and music to “Save You” in your grief. Thanks for reacting
