BTS Visits President Biden at the WHITE HOUSE! | BONUS REACTION
Added 2022-08-31 17:01:04 +0000 UTCWhen we first heard the news that BTS got invited to meet with President Biden at the White House, our first reaction was SHOCK.
We’ve always been fascinated with U.S. politics, and watching the White House Press Briefings has become a customary and routine practice for the both of us.
To see all 7 members standing at that Press Briefing podium dappered up in their matching suits, spreading LOVE and POSITIVITY, was truly MAGICAL. They are beacons of hope in this sometimes gloomy world. And you heard it yourself…RM will be telling his mother (if he hasn’t already) about the experience meeting President Biden.
And as we know, BTS was invited to shed light on an important issue. Hate against Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) communities has risen during the COVID-19 pandemic, and is still very prevalent today. Here is a great resource for combatting AAPI hate and racism: https://stopaapihate.org/actnow/
Please feel free to share other resources in the comment section for combatting hate/racism (whether they relate to the AAPI community or any other marginalized community around the world).
Lastly, moving forward, instead of us choosing which bonus videos you will get, we'll now be handing the choice over to you!
At the beginning of each month, we will launch a poll containing 5-10 different options of BTS content possibilities for us to react to. You will take a vote, and the TOP TWO choices (the ones that receive the MOST votes) will be the videos that we react to for that month. Look out for the first poll in the beginning of September!! THIS IS GOING TO BE FUN!!
We truly appreciate your love and support (WE WILL CONTINUE SAYING THIS UNTIL THE END OF TIME). Your ARMY GOLD 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!! 💜💜

I remember seeing Kamilla Harris liking BTS posts back in 2021. Seems like she's ARMY

2023-09-07 02:58:37 +0000 UTCI’m late to comment seeing as I only upgraded to Army Gold today. I’ve come to very much appreciate your approach to learning about BTS, particularly how you search any areas you feel you’d like more information on. One thing that wasn’t in the videos you watched but I find interesting and hopefully you will too - is how & why did the White House invite BTS? One of the reasons cited was because BTS’s tweet on 30 March 2021 in support of #stopAsianHate was the most retweeted tweet of 2021.

2022-10-06 00:50:49 +0000 UTCexactly and it always surprises me how army follow the rules. it´s not like some have different opinion on bts we all share the same. other fandoms might fight about who is the best member. but with army we all can take a step back and acknowledge all members and we know who is the best dancer and singer but we can always preferer another members voice over the other and people don't get mad about it. i have never seen this in other fandoms.

2022-10-02 16:31:38 +0000 UTCJust a note…part of ARMY culture is that if you see BTS on their own personal time - you did NOT see them. We are very protective of them as they share so much with us already. We do our best to let them have space. If they have a schedule they have released and it’s official coverage it’s ok but we do our best to keep saesang and unofficial photos/videos from getting views and likes. They have spoken in past about how it scares them to be mobbed and we do our best to protect them. Read about the purple ribbon campaign. You can even see video of Taehyung asking people to stop

2022-09-01 03:51:41 +0000 UTCWhat a great surprise! Thank you so much for this video. I truly appreciate the quality, time & effort that you guys put into these contents as well as allowing ARMYs to walk this journey with you! The poll is a great idea! For me, seeing BTS at the White House validates that I do belong in America. Growing up as an Asian American, I never felt like I belonged. There were always two sides & I was stuck in the middle. I was born in Vietnam but my family came to the U.S when I was about a year old & have been raised in the States for all of my life. I grew up in a predominantly white neighborhood so for most of my school career I felt like the outcast. During the summer my parents would enroll me in summer school back in Vietnam. I looked like my classmates but the moment I spoke, I knew I was different. Language was my biggest insecurity. In Vietnam, I spoke as little as possible because my enunciation was clear as day to be completely different than my peers & in the States I spoke as little of Vietnamese, I was always feared to speak my mother’s native tongue worried that my friends would make fun of me. BTS speaking at the White House IN KOREAN made me feel okay to express myself as an Asian American. For people who say they don’t like K-POP or Boybands I always tell them that it doesn’t matter what kind of music BTS produces, read the lyrics & I guarantee you it will uplift you. Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk lol, BORAHAE 🤣💜

2022-09-01 02:07:00 +0000 UTCWelllllll you two surprised me today. 1. Reaction outta the blue ... goosebumps for me on this one. 2. Your mutual adoration of all things paparazzi... i literally laughed out loud watching you two watch that short video of jk in Incheon Airport. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Loved it Thanks for all the info as well. 🟪🟣🌌💜🍇💫🖤 Ps on a personal note I work in the public for many many 🌙's... ... the last several years by far have been the worst for rudeness, ignorant behavior and unacceptable discrimination.
