[SUGA] We originally weren't
supposed to be an idol group.
3
00:00:08,258 --> 00:00:10,802
[Jin] They said it was supposed
to be a group that only rapped.

00:00:10,885 --> 00:00:13,138
[Jung Kook] Hardship was
an expectation at that time.

- Bang Bangtan!

00:00:14,973 --> 00:00:16,993
[Jin] We thought our lives
were going to change somehow.
7
00:00:17,017 --> 00:00:18,995
[RM] We'd finish at 10 or 11 p.m.,
and go to the practice room

"This is it."
12
00:00:25,025 --> 00:00:27,294

in the Olympic Gymnastics Arena…

But then, they wanted us to go to the US.
20

[RM] It was the start of raising people's
awareness of us as the group BTS.
21

You should find ways to be happy.
22
00:00:46,838 --> 00:00:50,550
[SUGA] It feels like we've compacted
20 years' worth of experiences

into our seven years of experience.
24
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:55,305
[Jin] It's hard psychologically.

[V] So I think I wanted to stop
for a moment.

174
00:09:26,649 --> 00:09:29,110
{\an8}I believe there isn't really a reason
that we're at the top.
175
00:09:29,193 --> 00:09:33,698
{\an8}Any special sincerity
or situations that we have
176
00:09:33,781 --> 00:09:36,701
are hard to express in words.
177
00:09:37,243 --> 00:09:40,705
Even the people here
don't know what they are,
178
00:09:40,788 --> 00:09:44,208
but there's a special sentiment
179
00:09:44,292 --> 00:09:47,378
that only we possess and share.

[presenter 2] What have we got?
182
00:09:53,384 --> 00:09:56,429
- [presenter 1] BTS!
- [fans cheering]
183
00:10:01,183 --> 00:10:04,604
[RM] I tried many times
to describe this in a word.
184
00:10:04,687 --> 00:10:07,440
But in the end, I couldn't describe it.
185
00:10:08,024 --> 00:10:10,443
I think the closest word is "sincerity."
186
00:10:10,526 --> 00:10:14,405
How do we get people
to understand our sincerity?
187
00:10:14,488 --> 00:10:18,284
[in English] Some of our fans told us
that our music really changed their lives.
188

189
00:10:20,411 --> 00:10:22,538
And now, we realize
190
00:10:22,622 --> 00:10:25,666
that our words truly carry weight,
thanks to you guys.
191
00:10:25,750 --> 00:10:27,668

[crowd cheering]
193
00:10:29,629 --> 00:10:33,799
[RM in Korean]
We found the best answer to this problem.
194
00:10:34,300 --> 00:10:36,135
If people understand our sincerity,
195
00:10:36,218 --> 00:10:39,889
then we've sincerely shown them
that nationality, race, age,
196
00:10:39,972 --> 00:10:41,682
and gender do not hinder anything.
197
00:10:41,766 --> 00:10:45,436
{\an8}In the end,
ARMY is deeply immersed in BTS.
198
00:10:45,519 --> 00:10:49,106
It's beyond just liking them as artists.
199
00:10:49,190 --> 00:10:51,609
"BTS's work is my work,
200
00:10:51,692 --> 00:10:55,363
and I want to do something
as I watch BTS grow."
201
00:10:55,446 --> 00:10:58,908
And this good energy sends a message,
an even better message.
202
00:10:58,991 --> 00:11:01,869
I think it definitely influenced
many people's direction in life.

[RM in Korean] What made us special
wasn't necessarily ourselves.
211
00:11:25,226 --> 00:11:27,978
It was that we really drew
212
00:11:28,062 --> 00:11:31,440
a lot of sincerity from all over the world
213
00:11:31,524 --> 00:11:34,360
in a situation and in a time
when unity was important.
214
00:11:34,944 --> 00:11:37,613

But BTS are different
from other manufactured,

From the plane to the hotel,

And it's the same process
in the next country.

00:16:03,921 --> 00:16:05,756
It became so repetitive.

00:16:05,839 --> 00:16:08,801
Of course, you can consider it,

[Jin] The word "idol"
means an object of admiration.
323
00:17:15,534 --> 00:17:18,579
There are a lot of people

forget about all of the many good comments
327
00:17:25,002 --> 00:17:28,255
and compliments they get
328
00:17:28,338 --> 00:17:31,175
because of a couple of bad comments.
329
00:17:31,258 --> 00:17:36,055
