Comments
i cant help but cry everytime i see the live performance not only because of the lyrics and meaning of the song but because of how proud i am of them, they truly went from being the lonely whale to being the biggest group in the world. Now army's worldwide are listening to their songs, they truly made the lyric 'an endless signal will reach someday, even to the other side of the world' come true.

2021-07-25 03:55:35 +0000 UTCplease take a look at song 13430 (pluto). I'm curious about your reaction. That's just as interesting as whale 52. i purple you

2021-07-24 22:04:45 +0000 UTCFun fact, BTS mentioned in the latest run ep that Hobi wrote the lyrics to this song (apart from yoongi and joon's verses, of course!). I think that makes it all the more special π

2021-06-29 16:52:28 +0000 UTCI just realized the lyrics about reaching the other side of the Earth actually reflect what BTS has done. A small music group from Korea is now known all the way here in the US, as well as around the World. This is a beautiful touching, but often unknown, song. It should have many more plays than it does. Legends at work yet again. Everyone please, be safe, be strong, be well and God bless. ππͺππ

2021-06-23 13:38:09 +0000 UTCWhalien 52 is a song very close to my heart, so I loved seeing your reaction to it. I work from home and it gets a little lonely, so I'm always excited when I see you guys have a new video. I watch while I have breakfast and it almost feels like I have irl company. :)

2021-06-23 13:02:17 +0000 UTCJust to let you know I had Arnie on my lap at the begining, (had very little of way of seeing this video cos he took entire part of my chest/head area to be affectionate rubbing all that, at the same time he was watching you guys. was scared that he would 'pounce' on the screen when you showed your googling with the mouse curser that is like a bright yellow ball... I'm like 'oh no not that again' lol, earlier I had to use the flash light to see outside to clean his litter boxes, and Arnie loves to chase the light dot almost became obsessive to it...Lucikly he calmed down when there's no more yellow dot on your video lol

2021-06-23 06:29:34 +0000 UTCWithout being pushy, I'd like to recommend these lyrics for a clearer understanding of the complex lyrics and rich meanings.. https://doolsetbangtan.wordpress.com/?s=whalien. I absolutely love the sincerity and genuine appreciation for their music you always show.

2021-06-23 03:30:39 +0000 UTCHad a hunch because ARMYs were telling us about how the two songs relate in the comments of that video. But itβs good to read the lyrics and hear the song now π€

2021-06-23 03:30:05 +0000 UTCOff-topic: This link is especially for Blaze. I stumbled across this old vid of RM performing a beautiful duet. Sharing ICYMI. https://youtu.be/Ds_OQ-j-2mg

2021-06-23 03:18:44 +0000 UTCI remember watching a fancam of TaeHyung during one of the live performances of this and he was crying. This song really means so much to them. During RMβs performance of Reflection during the Wings Tour there was a large whale projected on the screen. Itβs become such a symbol of how BTS sang their song and ARMY heard their voice. Also how BTS hears the voice of the generation and gives them a voice through their music. The whales in βWe Are Bulletproof: The Eternalβ MV and the Tiny Tan video βDream Onβ just shows how much it still means to us and to them. π Great reaction!

2021-06-23 03:17:40 +0000 UTCThis song is a hidden gem. BTS were the lonely whales on an industry that did everythung to try to silence them. To me, personally, I love the line " and endless signal will reach someday, everywhere even to the other side of the earth" 'cause it reminds me of RM's speech in one of their concerts in Brazil, he said beautiful words along the lines of how BTS being able to perform in Brazil (which is literaly the other side of the earth from korea, exactly 12 hours apart) was a testimony to how far they've come.

2021-06-23 03:11:22 +0000 UTCLove this song so much. This is also why so many lost it when Whalien 52 was included in the We Are Bulletproof: Eternal video. Whalien 52 is no longer alone in the video. The song is deep and for them to be in their 20's and write such powerful songs is incredible.

2021-06-23 03:06:31 +0000 UTCI loved this song even before I knew what the meaning was, and now I love it even more. BTS never disappoints with their music!!

2021-06-23 02:51:13 +0000 UTCSo now you know about the whale when you reacted to We Are Bullet Proof: Eternal
Delilah Rivera
2021-06-23 02:49:58 +0000 UTCLove your reaction! There's actually a documentary coming out about that whale on July 9... ARMY Day... it's fate with BTS. Here's a link to the trailer of the film: https://youtu.be/Q4zGRKbnVh8 Army's on Twitter asked the filmmakers if they knew BTS had a song about the whale and they said if course they didπ.

2021-06-23 02:49:08 +0000 UTCTo me this relates to how even in their own country there were times that they were alienated(whale+ alien= whalien) as a group because they had a small voice at the start (coming from a small agency) and it was difficult to get their unique hertz(music) across so that it can be heard. But now, they have reached the other side of the world by continuing to make music that millions of fans can hear clearly. π₯²

Marguerite Engel
2021-06-23 02:44:07 +0000 UTCLoved this. I reacted the same when I first read the lyrics to this song, so sad but beautiful. BTS are the kings of the metaphor.
