STRAY KIDS IS THE KING OF KPOP

The song is about loosing a friend. The music video pays homage to the Sewol Ferry Tragedy. It’s never been openly confirmed but Jin kind of confirmed it in an interview. Politically they couldn’t come right out and say so because the president at the time black listed and even jailed people that criticized the incident. There is a deeper explanation video by Italian army if you’re interested. Warning though it has actual footage and is hard to watch. Bts donated to the survivors families. Secretly. That wasn’t revealed until years later.

there was a government coverup.

“What you STILL DON’T KNOW about BTS SPRING DAY MV” by Italian Army is a very detailed explanation of all the meaning and symbolism in the video. Also a very detailed explanation of the tragedy, the aftermath and public reaction. It’s a hard watch with real videos and news footage. It made me really appreciate the lengths BTS went to and the risk they took. This song alone proves who they are as people.

They couldn't make an open statement without getting in real problems with their country politics.

Yes, the Italian ARMY has a better explanation. It is even more symbols!!And you will also get information about the accident and what happened. I was in Seol and saw the memorial. It was heartbreaking.

You shouldn't feel bad for expressing your emotions. Please, don't be sorry. I lost count of the times I've heard Spring Day. I still cry almost every time, including this one. They sing it beautifully and with such emotion.

I was in Korea on holidays when the ferry tragedy happened. The way it was “reported” and how the whole rescue was handled was horrific. I can’t imagine the pain those parents went through seeing that nothing was being done to rescue their children. I was there again a couple of years later and I vividly remember standing on the side of a road in Seoul in the rain watching the parents and friends of those lost children, marching and seeking justice from the government. It broke my heart and I admit I cried like a baby. There was nothing I could do but offer my support. That memory has stayed with me to this day. Seeing their faces as they walked in the pouring rain holding pictures of their lost children - you have no idea what that was like. This song though not officially about the tragedy, has been linked to it since the beginning. It’s a beautiful song and the way it was written has left it open to individual interpretation- it means different things for different people. They are masters of their craft!

The Sewol sinking happened in 2015. I was a high school teacher in California when this happened. My students were the same age as the students on the field trip. I followed this story. (I did not discover BTS until 2020). "Spring Day" came out in February 2017, in the midst of protests and government crackdowns, including the impeachment proceedings against the president of Korea. Artist, actors, public figures, etcetera who spoke out for the victims' families and the survivors were attacked in the media, reputations smirched, lost their jobs, some wound up in jail. It was illegal to speak against the government. After the impeachment of President Park and during her trial, her orders to ruin the lives of those who publicly supported the families were confirmed.

her orders? Was the president a woman?

I promise you, you are not the only person to cry watching this for the first time. You are not the first grown man to shed tears because of Spring Day. Heck, you're not even the first metalhead to do so. Spring Day touches that very real, very raw, core of our humanity. The one that knows loss, and the pain of missing a loved one - or even just a time in our past when we felt safe and secure. It touches the part of us that recognizes that pain in others; that loss is a universal emotion (and not just an exclusively human one). Spring Day touches that pain, and reminds us of our humanity. And nothing could be more beautiful. I have to admit, the thing I find hardest now, is watching others struggle while watching this. I just want to reach out and hug you.🫂 Sorry, but just know you are not alone, and we are all here for you. Many BTS songs will hit you in ways you don't expect. And we all have songs that hit us harder than others (for me that is Suga's Interlude: Shadow - I can not watch it without being in tears; though Louder Than Bombs hits hard too). So this may well not be the last time BTS reduce you to tears. Hugs🫂 Borahae💜

Me too girl when my best friend sent me this I was like 😭😭😭

My mom told me that she cried every time she heard the first notes of Spring Day and throughout the entire song. So she asked me about it and I told her about the tragedy and the theorised meaning of the MV. She cried even more after that 😅 It just shows how talented they are because my mom never cries and she didn't know anything about the song nor had she seen the MV ever!

In a 2020 Esquire interview BTS were asked if Spring Day was about a specific event. Jin said, "It is about a sad event, as you said, but it is also about longing." Many take that, along with BTS's 2017 donation to the 4/16 Sewol Families for Truth and a Safer Society, as confirmation that the song is at least partially about the tragedy. The donation was made in the same year as the song and in the same year that there were massive protests to remove Park Geunhye, the former South Korean president, for corruption and the cover up of the Sewol ferry tragedy. The explained video you watched isn't the best in my opinion. I much prefer the one by Italian Army that makes much more concrete connections between the MV and the tragedy and the movement that followed. I think this video missed the main point behind Spring Day's references to Snowpiercer and Omelas too: The reason for the revolution in Snowpiercer is because the children of the lower class keep disappearing, and they find out at the end of the movie that it was because the upper class were stealing them to get them to do the extremely dangerous work in the small spaces around the train's engine. The train literally needs the labour and suffering of the underprivileged children to run, for the rich to keep enjoying their safety and luxuries. It's the same thing in Omelas. The reason Omelas is prosperous and the people are happy is because of one small child mistreated and tortured out of sight. They're poignant references because the victims of the Sewol ferry tragedy were primarily school age children who were sacrificed for the corruption of the elite and powerful. And the terrible wrong that was done to those kids was also hidden in darkness, covered up. Even now after years there are still may questions about who was really responsible for the tragedy at each step from the illegal modifications to the ferry, the extra weight beyond capacity allowed on board for more money, the coast guard doing nothing to rescue passengers before the ferry was fully submerged and actively preventing civilian boats from approaching and trying to help, the volunteer divers who said they could have still saved people in air pockets but were prevented from doing so and had their equipment tampered with, to the lies and lack of reporting in the media. If you want to know more, I really recommend the Italian Army explained video for this song and/or the Rotten Mango video on the Sewol Ferry Tragedy.

The Queen Spring Day, it's still on Korean music charts after 7 years.

Hi there, The song itself wasn't written about the ferry disaster, but the MV obviously is related. In fact, Jin confirmed a few years later in an interview that the MV was about a sad event. You didn't notice that the merry-go-round has the word "You'll never walk alone" on it. As I'm sure you know being from the UK, same as me, this is the song for Liverpool Football Club. Do you remember the Hillsborough disaster in 1989 where about 90 people including children sadly lost their lives in a crowd crush? Hillsborough families met with relatives of the victims of the Sewol Ferry Disaster to show their support and to share their knowledge and expertise in seeking out the truth of what happened. If you watch the Italian Army explanation or do your own research and see some of the videos taken by the students please have plenty of tissues handy because it is heart breaking. 💜💜💜💜🖤🖤

@@Imme_begin Err, yes I know it's originally from the musical and realise Liverpool FC fans have adopted it. The fans have sung it before every kick off since the 1960s. The song was covered by Gerry and the Pacemakers in 1963 and was number 1 in the UK for 4 weeks. Bill Shankley (Liverpool's then manager) picked it during an appearance on the BBC's Desert island Discs radio show in 1965 ahead of that year's FA Cup final and the fans sang it in the stands and it was shown on TV. the words 'You'll Never Walk Alone' appear on Liverpool's crest based on the design of the Shankly Gates, which were erected outside Anfield in 1982. 97 Liverpool fans lost their lives in the Hillsborough disaster. On the day after the tragedy 13,000 people gathered at Liverpool's Roman Catholic Cathedral; 5,000 in the church, and 8,000 on the streets outside and those watching on tv listened as YNWA was sung by single choir boy, offering comfort and hope to a city in mourning . So yes Liverpool fans have adopted the song but it has special meaning to them and so yes, it is their song and being 72 years old I've grown up with them singing it at every game.

Ah this song💔 One of the things that separate BTS is that they're always saying something. Their songs are super meaningful, lyrical, and often have many psychological or cultural references. They make you feel exactly how they're feeling and they resonate with and help people💜

304 people passed away...250 were students in the Sewol disaster...

I think the Italian Army explained "What you still don't know about BTS SPRING DAY mv" Is more accurate since she even went to Korea to meet the victims parents, if you want more details you should check it out, but it's hard to watch without tears and so many emotions. Bts doesn't confirm because it's a very sensitive topic in Korea, but if you look all the details i believe that the Mv is focused on the tragedy.

Agreed

And that is why she is THE QUEEN! In every bracket challenge ARMY does of their best song, Spring Day always ends up being number 1. I believe it is the most important piece of art they have created.

This is South Korea’s longest-charting song of all time on Melon, its main domestic streaming platform. One of the most touching moments to me personally was when the father of one of the victims of the tragedy thanked BTS for remembering the children through the song. At the same time, it has become an anthem of hope through other difficult times as well. During the worst days of the pandemic, BTS participated in the virtual global graduation ceremony organized on KZread, Dear Class of 2020. They gave an inspirational message and closed out the ceremony with a live performance. Spring Day became a message of hope to young people dealing with the loss and uncertainty of that time. When I became an Army, Spring Day was new. Now it bisects parts of a long career and will ultimately be part of their “early” discography as they continue. The true proof of its quality is its timelessness. It continues to be relevant across time, situation, culture, and nationality. Just like the group who crafted it.

Well said, ARMY. Thank you for sharing.

I would tell you to watch Italian Army's version because it's longer. It's more like a documentary and there are scenes from the incident as it was unfolding. But as a parent, you will have a hard time. I was broken watching it but I still tell people to do it because I want these kids to not be forgotten. There are also se videos on the aftermath. As it says the government tried to ignore this and they refused to do anything. Regular people who were divers went to retrieve the bodies of these children in coming weeks. One man wouldn't stop until all the children were found and after he himself committed suicide because of the tragedy. I know it's difficult but if you can, watch the Italian Army explanation and maybe some more videos on the aftermath and some amazing ordinary heros. Just to pay tribute to them.

you're definitely not overreacting to feel so emotional watching/hearing spring day. i've been a fan for almost 7 years now but even to this day, it still hurts and i found it so so beautiful

BTS have such a big fandom not because they are handsome or something but because each and every ARMY connects to them and their songs....they have songs for like every age group 🥺 They are not just a group but happiness for so many people out there...and this song especially this song holds a different place in everyone's heart...You know this song never left Korea's Melon Chart and that's why we call SPRING DAY "QUEEN" 👑 everyone loves this song 😭💜

I'm glad you mentioned J-Hopes caring touch on Jimins leg at the end. I've cried at that part alone a few times.

The idea of this song was from Suga who used have a very close friend and like many of us, over time they fall apart. Suga got angry and hurt because of this ruined friendship and yet there had been many instances where he used to miss this friend like crazy. I think then Namjoon, being the poet, took this song to the next level. The background story of Spring day is mentioned in 'BTS Beyond the Story' book.

Kim Namjoon was walking through a park when he saw a leaf falling. He sat down, and with his cactus pen, wrote the melody for spring day in two days. This song hasn’t left the charts since it’s release in 2017.

Now I’m in my first year of university. 7 years have passed, i grew and started to know the world a little more and less things can make me cry or feel something deeply.

I get that; watching someone else in pain, while reacting to Spring Day, HURTS. But that is a pain that connects us in our humanity. A reminder that we do not live in isolation. That what happens to others, affects us. And that's a good thing.

Its confirmed its a song about the tragedy It was also found later that BTS went and donated money from the cause the people suffering from the loss they couldnt do it publicly cause first they usually dont do it that way in general but also cause the government were going after people raising their voices against what happened the government was trying to cover up the fault so BTS made this song in a direct or indirect way you can say with the references from the tragedy and it has helped people it hasnt left the korean charts ever since release

BTS is able to communicate every emotion, even without the subtitles. When I hear this song I am always reminded of my own personal griefs. The song stands alone, about losing and missing friends, while the MV is about the incident of the Sewol ferry disaster. The people of Korea have adopted this song as a means of remembering the tragedy. The song has remained in the Korean charts for many years.

I love BTS because of how they can make you feel and because so many of their songs has such deep meaning. Much of the music these days is just junk food and doesn't fill you, but BTS fills your soul.

I love your reaction. And it is not silly at all to show your emotions. Spring day is the queen of all BTS Songs. 💜😊

Yes!!! Seeiing the actual videos of the ship sinking, the anguish of families begging for help, the additional enbedded 'hints' and the explaination of how BTS risked being blacklisted for potentionally singing about this incident is a whole different take. Theory 1 video is a good video to introduce a first timer though.

This song still gets to me, even after so many years. It's sad and at the same time almost nostalgic, makes you miss your close ones. This song hasn't left the Korean charts since its release, it means a lot to Koreans as well as Armys. Another song that makes me feel this way is Butterfly by them. Their artistry is so beautiful and meaningful, it's the reason why we feel so strongly connected to them. They don't feel like celebrities, they are my best friends who comfort me and give me a safe space to feel all kinds of emotions. They don't know us, have never met us but they've made so many of our lives better. This is why I love them. For their artistry, their humanity and their honesty that reflects in each word and action. Thank you for appreciating them, I'm grateful that you were able to recognise their brilliance.

My mother died on April 28, 2016 and this MV premiered the following February. I bawled my eyes out and was inconsolable for quite a while when I watched this the first time. But I hadn't grieved and I needed to cry, so it helped a lot.

You definitely want to hop on the Italian ARMY channel and watch their explanation next. This was actually the "dumbed down" version of the events and how they relate to the MV. The woman who runs the Italian ARMY channel (yes, you will need captions on) actually went to South Korea, interviewed people, etc. for her version...and, thus, it goes into MUCH more detail. Still only around 17 minutes long, but it's a very powerful 17 minutes.

The reason the government is being criticized in this music video is because members high up in the government had an interest in the ferry company and had made illegal modifications to the ferry to allow it to carry more cargo and make more profit, ultimately causing it to capsize and sink. Because these government ministers didn’t want their illegal actions to be known as the cause of the tragedy they forbid the coastguard from going out to the ship to rescue passengers. The few who survived were rescued by local fishermen until the coastguard stopped them from going near the ship as well. Then the government tried to sweep the whole thing under the rug by manipulating the media and stories about the event that were coming out. Even telling people not to believe the victims’ parents about what happened in the incident because they were just trying to get compensation money from the government. Luckily not many believed them thanks to works of art like Spring Day which subtly (or in some cases not so subtly) criticized the government’s handling of the tragedy, which led to mass protests and eventually the impeachment of South Korea’s president. Soon after the incident occurred BTS’ boss Bang Shi Hyuk took them to visit the victims families to give the boys a more compassionate connection to the tragedy. They also made a monetary donation to the victims foundation.

I felt the same, I did not know about the tragedy but this song hit a nerve that had me balling throughout the video. When I saw the explanation of the song, I was a complete mess. You are not along brotha

I don't think you should feel bad for liking this mv! Even though it evokes grief and loss, BTS created it for us to relate to and heal from. BigHit was originally created with the logo "music and artists for healing" and I think BTS really embodied that with this song and mv.

Spring Day is the song that made me Army. It's difficult to put into words how it affected me, but there is a saying that goes, "BTS will find you, when you need them the most". The Sewol ferry disaster is heartbreaking. The New Yorker made a 30 minute documentary about it, that is on YT. I will warn you, it is not easy to watch. For me, the pile of clothes represented the belongings of the students that continued to wash up on shore for weeks after the disaster. Even now, the fandom is going thru "winter" with all of the members doing military service, but Jin is being discharged in two weeks! "Wait a little bit, just a few more nights, I'll be there to see you, I'll come for you".

Lets all just give each a BIG HUG. This song has stayed in the rankings since it was released. So many people are in pain and this song helps.

The incident is actually SO INFURIATING!!! Rotten Mango did an episode on it, and the more you find out about how it was handled, the angrier you get. Just to touch on it, the government refused help from the US NAVY - who was close by and had so many TRAINED divers who could rescue the students on board, ready to jump in the water and save so many…. Saying like “we got this”, but the officers were not trained divers and actually were “monitoring the situation” circling around the sinking ferry on boats. Literally. Pro divers - citizens, not officers - rescued more than the govt sent officers. And it’s not like there that many of them, and some have died in efforts of rescue. Parents were waiting at the shore, just watching it sink and waiting while being told they can’t go in the water to try to save their babies and not seeing much being done. It’s so heartbreaking, they were so young. So so young. And all because the company that owned the ferry was greedy, so overloaded it and not only ignored safety measures but did the complete opposite; the president at the time handled it poorly and did jack shit; there wasn’t a single person in charge who cared enough to just order officers to help. It’s not 100% confirmed but since it’s now so tied to the incident (honestly I’d call it a crime), the MV is super emotional. Spring Day you’re a queen and will always be famous, longest charting song on Melon Chart. 💜

I have watched many reactors reacting to the mv and explanation video and to this day I cannot hold back the tears. At the time BTS could not openly say that this was about the tragedy. Politically they couldn’t come right out and say so because the president at the time black listed and even jailed people that criticized the incident. But S Korea heralds this song as the "Queen" so they know, It is still on the top of the charts in S Korea to this day. The anniversary of the tragedy has just passed and the song saw a resurgence on the charts.

This is so beautiful and so tragic. Thank you for this reaction. I can't watch the explanation videos without crying. This song is one of my favorites, and a tribute to BTS's compassion and courage. A lot of people and artists who spoke out about this were blacklisted, and at this point in BTS' career, with all the hate they were already receiving, they still did this. They also very publicly donated to a charity for the families and survivors of Sewol .

There's another explanation video by Italian Army that goes into the graft and coverup that just rips my heart out as a parent. I highly recommend it.

1st time I heard this song, I Broke down. No idea what the lyrics were saying. I didn't watch the MV either. I listened to the music first. They are masters at Lyric Painting. They use the music to reflect what the words are saying. And Sprint Day sounds like pain feels to me. There's a Grungy, very harah guitar sounds throughout most of the song that affects me so much for being in the midst of so much beauty. Their voices sound a bit drowned and Heavy and it's just a bit uncomfortable. But once U get to the "OHHH" at the end, it opens up and all grunge clears out. Almost like I could breathe better. Man this song is so beautiful. The Video is a masterpiece as well. 💜👑💜

Yes, you are correct! This song was made by BTS and Apparently (speculated by Army) dedicated to the ferry tragedy that happened in 2015, where over 300 lives where lost, majority of whom are students. Very sad, it’s about loss, love and yearning, beautiful song though, definitely a hint of melancholy.

The lyrics wasn't actually originally dedicated to the ferry tragedy. It was written by RM because he misses a friend (as far as I remember) and they just made the music video connect to the tragedy.

The LYRICS are from Yoongi and Namjoon. It's about a fallout from their other friend/s. That situation was a painful one. Namjoon came up with this song (according to his own saying) when he saw leaves falling from a tree. Then. About the VIDEO, the director, the team and BTS must have decided to show solidarity with the incident since they were not able to be forward and vocal about it.

The Netflix zombie apocalypse series 'All Of Us Are Dead' was also fairly explicit in its reference to the Sewol ferry tragedy, the topic of school kids in peril being abandoned to their fate. The parallels were painfully obvious.

I love how sweet and kind you are and can truly feel the emotions the song causes.

Honestly it is hard not to be emotional when hearing this song, and when you understand all the concepts in the MV it really is raw emotion that I feel. Showing your emotions is fine, I cry every time I listen to spring day. But it not only is a song of sadness and loss, it's a song about spring and new beginnings. BTS talks about "spring" a lot in their songs.

So much of BTS's music had such depth. People who know nothing about BTS, just think they are a meaningless "pop" group. BTS writes such deep, meaningful lyrics that really connect with ARMY. I am a proud grandmother ARMY because of the character of these young men. Thank you for appreciating who BTS really is and what they do through their art.

You've become one of my favorite reaction makers

Remember that because of the song BTS wrote now not only Korean citizens but everyone around the world will remember the victims of Sewol Ferry incident. They will always be remembered through this song and from their loved ones and friends memories.

In my opinion Spring Day is the greatest song of all time and this MV is the greatest MV of all time. I've never felt the way that I do when I listen to it.

And not just BTS-wise. Universally the greatest.

Each member donated 10 million won, about $85,000 total, to the families of the victims. When I watched the explanation video, I wanted to find out everything that happened. Why the ferry sunk? I watched every KZread video connected to the tragedy. There is so much to uncover! If you choose you can go watch on your own. We all know the terrifying details. We have seen all the news accounts. We have seen the videos of the kids talking on the ferry and hearing the announcement stay where you are. Thank goodness there were students who ignored the message and went up top to be rescued. The government's cover-up and lies were insidious. Yes. Go find out what happened! Justice was finally served. And no one has ever forgotten. "Spring Day" has Never left the charts!!!

Thanks for your heartfelt reaction.

Explanation by Italian ARMY'S is more detailed, but also even more heartbreaking. You should check it out 😢

There is another explanation video by an Italian Army that goes even more into the real life happenings and symbolism in the MV... it's gut-wrenching, but so important to watch.

Like what everyone mentioned below, RM and SUga wrote this song when they lost a friend. The music video was definitely a political one and in memoriam of those that were lost to the tragedy.

If you want more context on why did the student stayed on the boat instead of evacuating it’s because of the adults telling them to stay still promising them rescue is on the way when there’s not. There’s actually a video recorded by the victims/students inside the boat during the tragedy. It was retrieved after the incident. It’s so heartbreaking hearing them laugh not knowing the tragedy that’s about to happen. I believe it’s still here on KZread you can watch it if you’re comfortable

There is also an explanation by Italian ARMY that covers some things this one didn't. But, as a parent, it is even more heartbreaking.

This was the song that turned me into ARMY. I liked their other songs I'd listened to but this one...Before I even read the lyrics or understood the connotations, it made me feel a sense of loss. It really transcends language in the ability to convey a very specific feeling. To this day, still one of my all time favorite songs.

This is the song that made me an army. Poignant and very meaningful and has a very beautiful melody..

Spring Day is the queen of BTS songs for great reason!! The lyrics, the production, and the meaning behind it are all so stunning! You definitely have to check out some live performances because the live vocals and the performances with choreo are also amazing! 💜

As someone who has lost several family members the last few years I found much comfort and solace in this song. As a barely subtle political reminder of the enormous loss of the Sewol it’s a historic necessary video. In every album BTS has at least one song that is deep social commentary or political. From their very first song.

There’s another explanation video by Italian army that will give you more insight to the incident and how it ties in with spring day. I suggest you give that a watch, but be for warned, it might hit u hard. Rotten mango also did an in depth explanation to the tragedy on her channel. But that’s like a 2 hr video

THE QUEEN 💜 BTS isTHAT group who will bring you to tears every time you hear this song !

The fact that you had those emotions by just watching the MV and hearing the music shows me how empathetic you are. I had just started finding out about BTS when I happened upon Spring Day. I researched the Sewol Ferry disaster and could not stop crying at the injustice. The way the government stopped rescuers, how close the ship was to shore, they could see the kids inside the ship. The video of the Captain and crew, being helped off the ship, out of uniform so ppl wouldn't know. How the ship was changed 23:29 to get more cargo on, which made it unsafe. How it still passed inspection by government officials. Artists who wrote or spoke about this were targeted. BTS could not openly talk about it. The video by Italian Army goes more into the corruption and heartache of the parents. Have your tissues ready. My respect for BTS sky rocketed, and I have loved them ever since💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

You should react on Spring Day dong explaination by Italian Army,she explained it with more details. This song is queen of all songs. I always feel emotional about this song . This is why BTS is different.... their songs are soulful, beautiful & deep meaningful..... thankfully im lucky enough to know them since their debut...yes im an old Army 🥺 'Spring Day' song is about - Losing your friend

RM confirmed the story/lyrics. “Spring Day” has now spent 260 consecutive weeks (5 years) charting inside the Top 100 of Melon Weekly Chart, the first song ever to achieve this. BTS also visited many of the survivors families.They burned incense, comforted the families. They also donated 100 million won (approximately $85,000) to the Sewol Ferry Disaster 416 Family Council.

this song was released around the time my mother passed away. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say it got me through the toughest time of my life. It is absolutely one of my favourite songs by BTS but I can’t listen to it a lot because it always makes me tear up or cry. It has saved me in ways Bangtan will never realise

Spring Day is one of my favorite songs I am so glad I came across these “7 normal boys from Korea”!! The other song that had me in tears when I heard it the first time was “the truth untold”.

You can also watch the Italian MV Explained with eng subs. It provided actual footage of the sinking and the students being trapped on that ship. I feel that gives a fuller picture of the incident.

Up!!!

I always end up in a shabby mess whenever I listen to Spring Day. It takes a lot of strength and courage for me to listen to this masterpiece since I can relate deeply with the loss of my husband. It's such an addictive heart - wrenching melancholic song.

What sets BTS apart for ne is that these are seven people eho just genuinely love, live, and breathe music. They find their purpose in it, they find connection, comfort, catharsis. I'm happy that you see the art in their craft. I will always love them, been with them since 2014. They are surely not just surface level, these guys mean what they say.

As many others have already said, I highly encourage you to watch "What you STILL DON'T KNOW about BTS SPRING DAY MV" by Italian Army. You don't need to react to it, but just watch it for yourself. It is devastating, but very informative. Spring Day will forever be our Queen. I can't even listen to the song without getting a bit emotional.

“It’s a masterpiece.” It truly is. This has been my favorite song and music video since it came out in 2017. I’m so glad we got to witness you watching it for the first time. 💜

The first time I watched this I didn’t have context either. I felt the loss though. After the explanation…tears. And the fact that BTS did this knowing how much trouble they could get into with the government but still wanted to honor them…AND they donated to the families secretly! They are some of the best humans. 💜

When I first heard this song I cried it reminds me of my dad And now I miss BTS very much

This is and probably always will be my favorite BTS song. It came out right as I was moving to Korea to become a teacher. The first feeling it gives me whenever I listen to it is that feeling of a transition in your life, and it will always be sentimental to me because of that. But then when I got to Korea, all the staff at the school were talking about the protests and impeachment, etc. I started to learn more about the Sewol tragedy, and how this song can be interpreted like that. It's such a beautiful tribute to the victims. I hope the survivors feel some comfort from this song.

Do NOT feel bad for loving this song as much as you do. It's a master class in what BTS is capable of creating. This song is so important to the BTS/ARMY relationship, and the way this song spoke to you is how it spoke to, and continues to speak to so many. Welcome, friend.

I’ve been ARMY since 2015 (and a casual listener since their debut), so I was there for when this song dropped. Even before we all knew the full context, I remember sobbing watching it during the premiere. There’s something unspoken and universal, maybe even instinctive, about the emotions this song & MV evokes.

This song has never left the Korean charts, so it's a special song and it's celebrated 💜

Spring day is THE song that i could never listen without feeling like crying and i kinda relate to it cuz losing someone is part of life

I love your honest reactions, they make me so happy! Could you do Mikrokosmos, We are Bulletproof: The Eternal and especially For Youth please?

I sobbed when I learned what the song really represents. I'm also a parent and the explanation video I saw went into deeper detail about the tragedy itself, and I cannot fathom going through something like that. As you said, the fact that BTS even touched this topic during the time says everything you need to know about them, honestly.

The Explanation video by Italian Army will WRECK you. You don’t get the video until you see that one. React to that, and then watch the video again. We will be here for it. We will feel every bit of it even though we have seen it many times.

I'm crying with you. After learning about the tragedy I cry almost every time I hear this song

This song always makes me cry cuz it's like a conversation between army and bts😢💜💜and the meaning behind it😭😭😭💜

"I didn't realize they put so much into this" as you react to more of their songs you'll see just how much goes into their songs.

As a parent, the loss of a child is so heartbreaking there is no end to the grief so many young people died that day. This song brought me to tears, that these young men felt so much compassion, this song is a masterpiece. 💔❤️

There is always deep meaning behind BTS songs 💜

I cried the first time I saw the video and the lyrics got to me. It brought back all the pain I felt watching my best friend fall into the crippling depths of depression and not knowing if she would get through to the other side. The lyrics about waiting just a little longer until winter ends and spring begins again, just hit me. I still cry. My friend did make it springtime but I still hold onto the trauma from that time.

Ah, our queen. This song does hit a lot and is such an amazing and meaningful song. Like probably most people, this song is one of the dearest songs I hold close to.
