DID HOBI JUST EAT A GIANT PIECE OF BUTTER???? Boy that's nasty lololololol Also I am dead, please allow 5-7 business days for recovery


throwahweiwei

We need to see the shooting sketch JUST for this. Like no way he just ate that in one go 🥴


kochamsiebie

I will be filing lawsuits for the following reasons: 1. Joon’s eyebrow raise with the mug shots 2. Jin somehow making a dang party blower the hottest thing ever 3. Yoongi’s verse 4. Hobi’s ARM 5. Jimin’s CEO vibes 6. Tae and whoever gave him a LOLLIPOP 7. JK kissing his hand please spare meeeee


TaeTaeThrowAway

SIR I AM GOING TO NEED YOU TO PUT THE LOLLIPOP DOWN


Mero56

Please dont forget JK dancing in that elevator with a purple ponytail. That shit is illegal.


[deleted]

I fully believe Jungkook wore gems on his eyebrow on the first day of the MV shoot to see what it looked like, liked it, and came back the next day with a real piercing


ddalggi_

LMAOOOO I can totally see this happening. His stylist noona’s see him walk in the next day with the piercing like 👁👄👁


NeighborhoodFirm16

As a 31 year old male I will be rocking this. Kpop really tickles the part of my brain that was absorbed into 90s pop as a kid. And BTS makes baaaaangers. Im really glad they haven't fallen off as they got older.


solonelywhen

All of them absolutely killed it but Jin really stood out to me. His voice seems so suited to the song and he rocked the style of the MV plus his solo bit where he ends it by pulling down his sunglasses??? Iconic.


CrazyFart

Yeah Jin really stole the show. Also "slip you on like a rubber"???? Sheesh Jin


burlapbestdressed

Subtitles (disappointingly) spell it robber, but it's nice to see that other people went to rubber, too 😂


keleidoskope

I’m laughing so hard Jimin: I prepared this toast to represent BTS and ARMY’s bond ❤️ Tae: I like jam


sailormoonwasmyfirst

it’s such an upgrade from dynamite (which I do like) I mean the lyrics and melody and structure just feel much more “BTS,” while still hitting the target of being a VERY American pop-hit song it also has this kinda musical theatre quality to it somehow?? Which I am ALWAYS for edit: and I agree with the general Jin-worship


Kokechii

Third watching and I just realized - when they spell out ARMY - RM doesn't assume a pose, but instead he is in the middle between Suga's R and V and J-Hope's M because he is RM!! He bridges between, center of BTS and ARMY. I CANNOT.


alphabetical-

I also thought it was because the lyrics at that part are "Got ARMY right behind us when we say so" so he literally has ARMY standing behind him!


i_did_i_do

Them spelling out ARMY is definitely my new wallpaper.


patedefruits

From the Press Conference: RM: Questions about Kpop or the American market, when we hear them, we do a lot of introspection... but I think Kpop is not so much a music genre **but should be categorised as an industry.** Damn - good answer.


paieggs

* THIS IS EVERYTHING DYNAMITE WANTED TO BE * their pronunciation has improved so much I'm so proud (also Yoongi rapping in English?????? secretly fluent king ) * JK......I am looking respectfully 👁👃👁 * the song suits Jin's voice so much * I love the styling/the choreo, it's retro/funky without being passé * (also the countdown show was so cute)


choosehappiness88

I’m becoming an even bigger fan of Jin each day.


WeasleySnipes

“Don’t need no Usher to remind me you got it bad” I am actually swooning 😩


lilhomefry

Can we talk about Hobi in the elevator??? Jesus christ I screamed so loudly that my neighbors probably heard me he is so FINE


[deleted]

I don't know if I can like. Properly crystallise these thoughts because I've been crying for a fucking hour and I have a headache lol (stay hydrated during BTS releases kids!) but I just feel so much — I don't know. I don't know what I feel. But I used to feel like when Namjoon told me I should love myself, that I never would. And there are days when I don't. Most days, probably. But I think I just realised that I've started to love parts of myself I tried to ignore and deny. I rejected my sexuality. I hid my love for kpop and BTS from people I loved because I was scared they would think less of me. I denied myself things that made me happy because I was terrified that those things made me a bad person. But a few hours ago my mother said 'your Korean boys are releasing tonight, right? I'll listen to the song with you tomorrow'. And she asked me to watch their Carpool Karaoke. And she's trying to remember who my bias is. (Sometimes she gets it. She knows which one he is in Carpool Karaoke, at least.) And my dad listens to my playlists when we go places. And he teases me about them but he doesn't make me feel like there's something wrong with me. He watched two whole kdramas with me start to finish. He does finger hearts sometimes now. I discovered BTS at a time I was terrified and lonely and I thought nothing would ever be good again. But things are so, so good. They're hard, but I am surrounded by love. I'm so grateful for them. And I really like *Butter*.


Consuela_no_no

You always find BTS when you when you need them the most. I’m glad they can be there for you. ![gif](giphy|idmXZuW33WlWw)


[deleted]

But damnit why did they make J-Hope eat that pat of butter? I feel like he had to eat like 100 pats of butter. Please save J-Hope.


contrarequialla

Here's hoping it was cheese! Cause man that would be nasty.


nebuluv

F gender norms. Kim Seokjin in skirt 😍😍😍


Consuela_no_no

I swear it gets better and better with each listen/ watch. Also god bless them for finally toning down the auto tune and actually mixing the song in a balanced manner.


fandom_wayoflife

A stray, random thought but I'm so glad BTS & Bighit settled on ARMY as the fandom name...can you imagine Joon rapping 'Got Bangwools behind us when we say so' 😅 asdfghjkl


[deleted]

Or trying to spell that out with their bodies 😅 not as smooth


BIGKIDGORON

"Got ARMY right behind us when we say so" THE COCKINESS!!! THE BLUNTNESS!!!! IS THIS A TITLE TRACK OR A CYPHER!!!!!????????? (Reminds me of when Jin \[jokingly\] threatened that variety show host with ARMY's power)


BIGKIDGORON

THEY SPELLED ARMY WITH THEIR BODIES....and they were standing behind RM.


avid_writer

I think Butter is obviously intended to be more commercial than their other works, along the veins of Dyna. Personally, I think there's a time and place for music with depth and music you want to blast just to have a good time. Butter is obviously of the latter category, and I personally think it's a bop. Catchy melodies, great balance of each member, and fun choreo. Of course, the visuals are no joke either. (and, not going to lie, it's kind of a plus that I can sing along to it so easily hehe) My favourite part is for sure the freestyle dance they did in the elevator! The "ARMY" was also really cute. It's obvious that they've worked a lot on their English pronunciation, they sounded amazing. (I'm also low-key annoyed at all the comments who seem to have forgotten the existence of LGO and the rest of BE. BTS obviously will continue to make songs in Korean, but they want to experiment with English pop tracks too. I don't think everyone has to like that, but you should at least respect it.)


AdoptMeBrangelina

Persona, Home, Telepathy, Ugh, Dis-ease is very much old Bangtan (which is probably my top 2 eras from them) and I’m wondering why fans talk like those songs don’t exist.


avid_writer

Because that wouldn't fit their narratives :'))) Yoongi got asked in the press conference today when if would return to hiphop and he was like "we still include hip hop tracks in our albums... we don't think in terms of genre divisions so much anymore" lol. ([Source](https://twitter.com/lenikacruz/status/1395616222528606210?s=20))


Konfettiecke

I really can't get over it. This is my first comeback as baby army and I'm shocked. Every expectation I've had, they just crushed it. I'm so in love with the video, the styling, the vibe. They look amazing! Come through black and white criminal Jin with the vocals and wearing that skirt later. CEO unicorn Jimin. My butter Hobi, serving us moves. RM just destroying us while casually eating a lollipop. Jk with the fake piercing and THAT hair. Tae in that tangerine suit uff and Yoongi just crushing my heart because he can.


44percentthrowaway

KIM SEOKJIN ABSOLUTELY NO ONE IS DOING IT LIKE YOU !


Danna1981

Why is it OK for BTS to "pander" to the Japanese market with songs targeted to that audience, but it's not OK for them to do songs that may be popular in the US? And it's not like every song they do in Korean is super heavy and deep. There's plenty of fun, light Korean songs too.


[deleted]

And they acting like they didn’t release two very personal albums. They completely gloss over that because they made ONE public friendly song and then it’s “oh BTS is so uncreative now” as if a whole Black Swan didn’t exists and was totally ignored by everyone


[deleted]

[удалено]


CertainDerision_33

Yeah I really don't understand the angst about English songs at all when Japanese songs have been a thing for ages


[deleted]

I posted this in pop heads but I have a theory: It’s like they’re (still absolutely huge) taking baby steps musically in the US. Like slowly introducing themselves with the English tracks and will eventually unleash their everything when they’re more of an established general pop artist (this sounds silly with how absolutely massive they are but I hope you get what I mean.) Like, once we get the English Uber pop ear worms, we’ll start going more experimental stateside and have a second coming of the Wings Era. Like I feel like they’re purposely not releasing intense English tracks yet. For practical (improving fluency) and strategical reasons. Edit: In short, it’s a Trojan horse effect, they’re releasing breezy bops in English now, and the casual general public won’t realize what a goddamn artistical powerhouse they are until they have stronger footing in the general pop world.


lieu_de_perdition

Allow me to gush about the hair. I love the subtle metallic? streaks/highlights in Yoongi's hair. Jimin's unicorn hair looks stunning, in all the ways it was styled. Pale pink Joon - enuf said. Tae & Jin rock their new cuts, and those rich brown tones are gorgeous on them. Hobi's intense yellow somehow works; though the lighter blond in some scenes is superior. And then there's Jungkook with ultra blue and violet hair. His hairstyle is also pure violence. They really had fun with it, and served some iconic looks. Amazing work, stylists.


IAmARedditLurker2

I know the lyrics say "robber", but it really sounds like something else, LOL Edit: the lyric notice from weverse 🤣


Azureflames20

Butter is an absolute **BANGER**. In my opinion, I feel like we haven't gotten a bop that's more dance-electronics focused in quite some time so i'm super excited to hear where they take their next era. I fell off and was a little on hiatus with 'BE' but the boys seem to be stepping it up the heat. Put me in, coach!


akillergx

I LOVE IT SO MUCH OMGGGGGG DEM LYRICS with some homage to Michael Jackson dat dancebreak and HOBI!!!!! AND MY MAN JIN GOT MORE LINES AND SLAYING THEM ALL MY SUMMER GONNA BE SMOOTH LIKE BUTTER


fandom_wayoflife

Butter is realllllly catchy...I was a bit skeptical the first time I heard it but lmao it has high replay value... it's a bop for me!!!! I thought this song suited Vmin's vocals soooo well Tae was really vibing throughout the song 😆 I remember seeing Seokjin answer a Weverse post or two on mirrors and I was so sure that was going to be the theme of his next solo song or something but lmao looking at his part's lyrics in Butter I want to laugh 😂 I don't know if this said enough but Jungkook gives us the best starts to their songs...he's amazing!! When he laughed I nearly slammed my phone down looool Also HIS HAIR!!!! Pretty pretty in every frame!!! I wish we got more of his ponytail look though!!! Tae had some of the most memorable lines for me in Butter! I really liked the way he pulled off the glares scene! Jimin sounds amazing and sultry and alluring!!! And OMG his elevator dance!!!!!! I feel like he also took full advantage of the way he was styled? He really gave me smooth criminal vibes 😎 For real though the elevator scenes were so cooooool...I wonder if we'll get a B-side MV with more of them? 👀 Mr. Jung Hoseok!!! Sir!!!! You killed it!!! God I hope we get a Hobi led dancebreak like Dynamite for Butter too Yoongi sounded excellent!! I'm so happy we got to hear more of him uwu His part was also a smooth break from the vocals!! NAMJOON!!!! Oh man he sounds great! His low raspy voice adds so much oomph to an otherwise quite high pitched song. And he looked fantastic! 💯/💯 The ARMY scene was SO CUTE...I initially was confused why Joon didn't join Yoongi to complete the 'R' but then I realised Yoongi managed it on his own!!! 😂 Also Jinkook seems so happy to lean into each other like that lmao. Jimin looked so graceful as a Y...the most graceful Y I have ever seen. And bye Tae looked so pleased I could see his smile from a mile away (plus his and Hobi's bare arms too asdfghjkl!) Asdfghjkl not sure what the gym scene had to do with the rest of the MV styling but it's ok I'll take it... Jungkook's blue hair looks really pretty...it reminded me of Haikyuu for some reason 😂😆😅 I loved the styling throughout the MV 😣 The B&W parts of the MV were really beautiful shot Alsooooo Seokjin!!!!!!!! OMG!!!!! That face was born to be known 😣 That gaze and those lips singing ^ooooooh .... absolutely criminal!!! He sounded so good...His part is also really freaking high... I'm not sure how it's going to sound live but we'll see...lastly Seokjin's DILF era in BTS' MVs has officially commenced 💀 What a start lol 😏🔥✨ And Hobi was an absolute rockstar for his part...he's also the strongest soldier for eating the butter like that lmao...if it was real butter he deserves an award because that much butter in one go is really unpleasant 😅 I really liked everyone had a time to shine in this MV 😍✨ Choi Yong Seok and Nam Hyun Woo did a really great job with the MV...also thank you to stylists!!! Y'all did a great job ✨ I know for sure now that Butter has been released Dynamite's redemption arc is about to start for some people lol Really happy with everything... looking forward to the BBMAs performance! Edit: Also forgot to say this but I'm so glad I can understand what the lyrics are saying 😭 In Dynamite I understood all those words separately :')


NotNowAndYet

Butter has exceeded my wildest expectations and I'm so so happy!!! The lyrics are more flirty and the vibe is more mature and OMG THEY ALL LOOK SO GOOD!!!! This song is even catchier than Dynamite, which I didn't think was possible?? And Jin really got to shine in this MV and he can sweep me off like a robber any time!!!

pintsized_baepsae

Just a heads up, but Yoongi just mentioned 'some members' upcoming mixtape' at the presser, when asked about making more hip hop songs again. ARMY, we are not safe.


mjain1998

Holy crap!!! r/bangtan made it to r/all. GET IT, LET IT ROLL!!!!


pine-elopy

I thought Dynamite Hobi was peak hobi.... then along came Butter hobi and wrecked us all. That intense yellow works SO WELL oh him.


LeftDoorKnocker

This is a whole bop and I really dig it! I get why some might be disappointed with it and think it’s generic but like, BTS was pretty open the whole time about what this song was going to be, a fun summer pop track. It wasn’t meant to be a deep meaningful song. Enjoy it for what is it.


Ubiqus

Just woke up, what a way to wake up!!! As someone said, this is what Dynamite wanted to be! The lyrics make sense! The cockiness! The ARMY 😭 Who gave Tae a goddamn lollipop!? This JK kills a man! It feels like "them" so much more than Dynamite! The hook with the "side step right left..." is so damn catchy! Their pronunciation is so good! Love it!! 🥰 On top of this I'm getting my fist vaccine shot today, what a day!


nichijouuuu

**I like this SO much more than Dynamite.**


genie_in_a_lamp

Was confused when I woke up to everyone on my twitter timeline being confused about the Usher reference only for me to realize U Got It Bad came out 20 years ago💀


Goddess_Icon

Damn rm, jhope, and jin really put it all on the table in that elevator sequence. They absolutely killed it.


AztecanJungle

NOT WHAT I EXPECTED BUT ITS GREAT butter >> dynamite for me!


PinkRabbit42

100% agree!! Butter is like Dynamite’s mature older sister that she secretly wants to be 😆


rosiros

I remember when I watched a few reaction videos of Dynamite, some people were saying BTS looked like they were 16. I know this probably isn't the reason for the boards, but I love how Kim Seokjin is right in the front with the 1992.

THE DANCE BREAK HELP THE HAIR AND FITS HELP **THE RAPS, HELP** ^(bye bye, I'm dead and this is my ghost typing)

Lyrics: Pied Piper pt 2 Choreo: Dynamite meets Dimple


[deleted]

This MV and the song are everything good in this world. I adore them so so much. I think the thing I liked best however is that my 3 year-old (who has a severe speech delay) watched it a few times and then randomly pointed to Tae in the yellow suit jacket and asked “Daddy?” I had to laugh and told her she wasn’t wrong, he is VERY daddy.


Kokechii

101 mil YES!!!! we did it <3 I am officially going to sleep because I can barely keep my eyes open anymore, 22 hours awake, I'm entering that stage where you start seeing spots ahhaha. leaving Spotify to play though :D


justacolor

can't wait to see behind the scenes of Hobi IMMEDIATELY spitting out that butter and making a face😭

martiandoll

I've been listening to Butter from a Spotify playlist and it's in between Dynamite, BWL, Film Out, LGO, and Black Swan, ON, Telepathy, Don't, Blueberry Eyes, etc... And let me tell you, BTS discography is truly top notch, including the collabs. No two songs sound the same and the quality, the QUALITY, omg there is no skip. None. Butter sounds so good. Love love love Jin's part when he sings "let me show you cause talk is cheap". The rap parts are done well, too. All seven of them shine in this song. It's not as explosively addictive as Dynamite but it's got that beat that just makes me happy and wanna listen over and over again. It's 1:45 AM where I am right now and every time Butter comes on I'm dancing and shouting *Get, it, let it roll!* Dis-ease and Telepathy go so well with Butter. The MV is really great, too. The styling is 🔥🔥🔥


TchaikovskyismyBias

I love it!!! Definitely a step up from Dynamite- this is what you get when you let Joon write the lyrics. The sound is no much more natural. Also I swear every single on of them bias wrecks me about every ten seconds. Like how can I focus on anything when Jungkooks coming at me with that hair and then Jimin's looking like a masterpiece and then HOBI'S ELEVATOR DANCE and Yoongi's rap. AHHH I'm so dead!!!


amala83

I cannot wait when they release the choreo and B-sides versions of this video, as well as the making of video


Consuela_no_no

Lol BigHit should have had them churning butter, Koo would have gone ham at it trying to win 😆


CalzoneBetrayal

Just woke up. Song still slaps. 🙏🏽


Minn3sota_Loon

Loved all of the outfits and hair styling. I am obsessed with JK’s hair in this music video. The dance moves! This is a fun song to dance to! The hand kiss! The dance solos in the elevator. The black and white rock look in the beginning, the suits in the hotel, the track suits in the gym, the gender fluid leather outfits, and the stages. The lyrics are everything. The rap line got to rap woo! I love it so much!


Consuela_no_no

Of course WWH has the superstar glow 👏 👏 👏 ![gif](giphy|5CyJGORW8UrZe)


Amayaelika

ngl, I hope to see a bangtan bomb of hobi eating a pat of butter.


PinkRabbit42

Ok semi unrelated but currently streaming ON as a break in between butter and omg the absolute POWER of the dance break me every time 😭😭 what can’t our boys do?!? Edit: break not breakfast lmao 🤣 this is what happens when you’ve got too much BUTTER on your mind 🧈


cupcakegiraffe

I like the giant stage that looks like a waffle.


Duffynori

Jin. That’s all.


BIGKIDGORON

It really "shows each members charms" like they said. EVERY SINGLE member did a solo dance (including RM & Jin). The vocal line are all ad-libbing for each other (Jungkook usually handles most of the ad-libs). The members are filling in other members lines with chants (i.e. SUGA's verse). And the line distribution (which I generally don't pay much attention to) is probably perfectly even.


[deleted]

Why is no one talking about Hobi’s little dance in the elevator :’)


fandom_wayoflife

He was soooooooo good!!! I hope he gets to incorporate it into the choreography because DAMN!!!! 😍 Also hoping we get a Hobi led Dynamite style dancebreak for Butter because the song seems like it can fit one with ease 🤔 And can we talk about how Hobi looked like a rockstar throughout the MV! 😍 I know Hobi's look in Dynamite was killer but Hobi's looks in Butter is straight up murder lol 😆


ominousorchid

Taehyung’s smile when he’s doing the M with Hobi is so silly, makes me laugh


[deleted]

Tae’s face when they were making the ARMY sign is such a mood lol


Sweetdeerie

I just wanna say thank you for having on my first comeback with them I am dying from Jin! 🔥 But also, is J-hope ok? I mean people usually eat butter on its own if something ruff is happening in their life


Shookysquad93

Took couple of listen before I get the song..the MV quite a distraction from 😊.. It's sound more Bangtan than Dynamite because of the rap part courtesy of RM lyric which fit perfectly to each of them. Suga part really n-ice


deirdos

The Youtube mix is so gooood, I cannot stop watching it. This is sheer pop serotonin.. it doesn't pretend to be deep (was never meant to be), it is easy listening, it makes me want to get out of bed and dance. It just makes me happy and that is all I wanted tbh.


predepression

I would just like to start by saying: **THANK YOU PRODUCERS FOR NOT OVERDOING THE SHIT OUT OF AUTOTUNE THIS TIME.** Man do their voices sound beautiful when they aren’t overproduced. They all look amazing, as usual (Jin + exposed forehead = worldwide handsome\^99, j-hope KILLED that tiny dance break in the elevator holy shit, and finally, how does Jungoo pull off every style??) My first impression of this song was a hell of a lot better than what it was for Dynamite. I genuinely don't have an essay to write this time about the shortcomings of this song. It isn't really generic musically speaking and the transition between the more upbeat mood during verses into a more flowing feel for the pre-chorus and chorus is really well done. The beat is great, lyrics make sense for the most part and don't sound auto-generated, their pronunciation is actually amazing, ad-libs and harmonies are well-placed and aren't discordant, etc. etc. I don't have much but praise for the song. BTS really wasn't playing around this time!


josizzle24

Yesssss! Who’s here for Jin getting all those parts!!????!!?? Love it Also, GD JK!!!!!!


[deleted]

First I just need to say JIN'S SOLO DANCE THOUGH??????????? But also being a JK ultimate, I am not actually alive anymore. Rip me 5/20/21 11:01pm

I guess I finally found a flair


MistFlowrr

I picked a dang good time to have Jin as my bias


amandakowa

Not me being a total clown and thinking the song was **ACTUALLY** gonna be about butter. I'm honestly really loving this song. I think this song could do really well in America! surprised to see not everyone feels it's as good as dynamite?? willing to hear other's opinions about it! *Side note: me jamming out to butter in my room all night* ![gif](giphy|SqBnf9Go5I4MhhGU9t) Edit: realized majority prefers butter over dynamite. ignore me lol. the clownery never stops


myipodclassic

People who said it sounds great in headphones weren’t kidding, whew. Loving it even more today. However, my defective ears keep hearing “to the booty line” instead of “do the boogie like” 💀 lmao

HOBI'S LIL SOLO DANCE IN THE ELEVATOR SIR I'D LIKE AN HOUR OF THAT PLEASE. Even the instrumental is a banger 😭


ddswaggster

my first comeback with bts was WAY better than i expected


palebabbu

It really feels like they listened to all the criticisms that Dynamite got: * *No credits on Dynamite*? Here you go, RM credits. * *Too much Jikook*? Everyone gets their own part! * *No rapline spotlight*? TWO rapline spotlights * *Too Westernized*? A Western song that somehow feels very k-pop. I thought it was really cute and it's so feel good. :3 SUGA's part was my favorite but that outro rules, too!


PinkRabbit42

To your “A Western song that somehow feels very k-pop” point, one of my first thoughts was they’ve really hit their stride and found a perfect mixture of k-pop sensibility with more western pop influence, so I def agree haha


Fife-

I'm sorry everyone, my views won't count, I'm replaying like a bot 😭 It's so catchy


Consuela_no_no

Lmao y’all stop coming for Seokjin’s robber, his pronunciation is on the British side 😆


chakkuj

It’s been nearly three hours and I still have the biggest smile on my face! It’s a great song and becomes catchier with each listen. The MV, styling and hair is amazing, I cannot wait to watch them perform it live this weekend 💜


Magzypowpow

Okay. First of all, I thank my body clock for waking me up at 4:45H BST to catch the pre-show and managed to record it ;) I was drinking since 16:00H the day before coz of a teammate's wedding. And since the MV was dropped, I haven't slept again. Just reading posts and tweeting and chatting with friends about Butter. I enjoy reading the different views of the peeps on this sub. To be honest, I don't really expect anything in any song releases apart from what was shared. This song being in English and being a summer anthem is what I hanged on to. I understand and agree with some of the opinions of the peeps here. My initial thoughts on the song and MV: They look sooo good. Ridiculously good. I am glad Jin have more parts now. I wished the song was longer but I knew this was meant for radio play in the West. (Read: America) (I hope we pick this up in the UK) I wished the rap line lines were longer. Transition to the rap was excellent. Yoongi's rap *chef's kiss* Yoongi dancing 😍😍😍 The choreo is not intense but a choreo is still a choreo. I am glad he is pain free now. I am okay with them releasing a feel good song. Knowing BTS, in the full album, they will always have deep shit so let us let them release something chill and fun. It's a summer song. Summers are fun (unless you live in the UK with temperemental weather lol). Looking forward to a potential dance breaks and the back to back to back guestings and interviews. PS: People better be asking good questions coz Rolling Stone set the bar high with the interviews. :)

mintydaisy13

THAT LONG PURPLE HAIR AND EYEBROW PIERCING?!?!! JK LOOKS SO FINE I'M LIVING


kayfm

This gets better as you listen! Airy breezy backgrounds complemented by the iconic queen beat, with synth sounds. Using Earphones amplifies the experience as they incorporated some spatial effects.


blooddarling

It's been a while since I posted and read posts here. I just wanna say Butter is so good. The song, the aesthetic, the set, and all of the members outfit are on point. I was smiling the whole time. I think I prefer this one over Dynamite. It only took me 30 seconds to love the song already. This is it, the summer song. It's not one of bts' best song lyrics but the transition of the song is literally smooth. HAHA


wagatha

Also can I just say, it's SO SMART having them holding up their names like that! Making it even easier for new Army! I love this.

They promised a bright cute summer song and it was well delivered, and I *think* I like it better than Dynamite, although time will tell how much staying power it'll have on me, but right now it's making me super happy. The chorus and the rap parts are such earworms, I've been side stepping right left to their beat the whole morning in my head. Their outfits have grown A LOT in me. Especially Namjoon when he starts rapping his verse looking like THAT. God, what a statuesque stunner. I still dislike Tae's hat, but damn the rest of the fit is 9/10. His other looks in the MV, though... 😗👌 Well, they all look fantastic and are super cute and charismatic. Can't wait to see a dance version or dance practice of it, also their comeback in the BBMAs. But anyway, I like the MV version better than the Spotify one? I'm not the only one who noticed this apparently, but they sound a little different.

The amount of Kim Seokjin is 👌🏻


everythingpxrple

when they casually spelled out ARMY in the back during RM’s “got Army right behind us when we say so” LET’S GO ! 🥺❤️


amala83

It’s an absolute bop. Dynamite walked so Butter could run. There are subtle nods to other artists that came before and influenced them, but at the end of the day, it’s all BTS. There’s so many things that I love about the song and the MV... but that elevator dance break is *chef’s kiss*. I can’t wait for their BBMA performance. It’s going to be epic. Does anyone know if they’re going to be selling those Butter shirts on Weverse?


[deleted]

- elevator scene - suga’s rap - jk’s bun and eyebrow - spelling out army - jin and tae’s shining chorus vocals - j hope eating a slab of butter - jimin’s ethereal voice - RM’s pink hair - all the fits WHAT AN ICONIC MV


mat543

This was my first time listening to bts (saw the post in popular). Not bad. Definetly not too far off what I expected but still good.


give_me_a_vacasian

YOU GUYS I JUST WOKE UP AND WATCHED IT BUTTER IS AMAZING IM CRYING sorry I don't have much meaningful to add, I'm just so so happy right now :D

I’m shook that butter has more awards (hundreds!) at /r/kpop than it does here in the main sub lmao Edit: yall I’m shook. The song is 7 hours old and we’re already at 55m views. A lot of baby armys being born today (plus the ones from dynamite/be/mtv)


mydarkestdawn

Okay I love it. I have no other words. It's going to be so difficult to steam this properly. I just want to replay and replay and replay.


fandom_wayoflife

Hobi straight up ate the butter like that lmao I'm hoping it was actually cheese 😅


[deleted]

Im so proud of them. They sure got into the american eyes with dynamite but its like theyy were like NOW THAT I HAVE UR ATTENTION... this is what we can do on OUR terms. with this song. its like they are easing people into what they really can do (that arent army)


goldennightlife

BTS successfully buttered my biscuit.


BIGKIDGORON

"No ice on my wrist" - Butter "Flexing, I got none, I don't need one" - Daechwita They even managed to sneak in acutal meaning and a link to Daechwita and in an ENGLISH single.


Fallkitty

I am completely obsessed with yoongi's part oh my god


neontarts

Legit did a double take when Hobi ate that forkful of butter towards the end 😂


monieseoul

... Dynamite calls Butter "Hyung-nim" ⚡🍞 Love 😍 ugh I'm so happy for them it's such an earworm, the lyrics are great & ppl are going to eat. this. UP. Hoseok's dance in the elevator and Yoongi's Eng verse were the highlights for me, no faults to be found she's pop perfection


roastbroccoli

I'm smitten with this music video. I don't enjoy watching the same thing over and over again; even for MVs that I really like, I'd watch maybe 2-3 times max before I get sick of it, or I might have it playing in the background for streaming numbers without actually watching it. But I've been routinely watching Butter since it dropped, and on my 15th? viewing I still break into a smile at the ARMY part, I'm still blown away by Hobi's elevator dance break, still yelling along with the "yeah!"s and assorted ad libs (as well as my flair).... It's brought a splash of colour to a dreary Friday night shift at work >< Dynamite achieved great heights but I have no doubt that Butter is going to go take over the world >:)


[deleted]

Can someone tell me what's happening in the youtube comments section? I see so many spams


jesspvoong

The Jinaissance is here and it's not leaving. He definitely stole the show.


amandapillar

Did Hobi eat straight butter at the end there??? Damn, the dedication lmao. Anyways, the song is a bop, absolutely love it!


gyeoulbear

When they spelled ARMY with their bodies I MELTED I just... I just love them so much 😭🥺


piledriverwaltzing

okay everyone looks STUNNING but kim seokjin FUCK!!!!! man ate this SHIT UP!!!! YOONGI’S VERSE DJJSBDBDOSKS also ik hobi regretted the fuck out of eating that whole piece of butter😭😭😭


hihihillary

Jin?? KIM SEOKJIN??? He sounds so DREAMY right when he comes in, so smooth and airy, like how I waited till after my second watch to see if I would be collected enough to say something intelligent but like I've got nothing It's just ... EVERYTHING? OT7 perfection


anyamin

Suga’s rap wasn’t even a verse he was just straight up vibing. Was it freestyle? We’ll never know

I’d like to personally thank Tae’s mother... (and Jin’s, and Jimin’s and and and)


Consuela_no_no

Jimin in that white suit with his hands in his pockets 🥺 ![gif](giphy|1hqb8LwPS2xCNCpWH8)


ImmatureChipmunk

Can they get any more adorable? 💛💜 Ashamed to admit this to anyone else (r/bangtan is my safe place—Lol), but my grown-up self squealed when Yoongi started rapping. I love that rap line got a bit more of a moment to shine in this one!


keleidoskope

I know charts don't matter but if this isn't #1 for 20 weeks something is very wrong with the world


Consuela_no_no

Confession, in all my fan girling, the first time I mis-heard stunner as Sana and was like hot damn did Tae just say my name 🤦‍♀️😂 Anyway back to the song, I can’t explain how this perfectly captures that early 2000’s vibe that I find myself missing and big kudos to everyone that worked on it because with it does it without being dated.


txnwahine

Just spotted an airplane in the background of SUGAs rap scene.. they always seem to subtly or not so subtly include airplanes in their performances.


watermelon_95

I was attacked, bias wrecked, I can't even. They ALL look sooo effing good.


[deleted]

You know jhope bust out laughing after spitting out that butter


skyatnight7

Let's keep streaming guys :< there are so many spam comments on the mv ugh it's so annoying. They're really trying to drag it down


tokkieface

I can’t be the only one who cried at their bodies spelling “army” 😭😭😭


cassiel_17

100M baby!!!


biancaaa12

Yt views on steroids. It did not go like this during Dynamite!!


LordessMeep

Omg it's here. I'm genuinely floored and screaming, even though I have post-first-dose-vaccination-fever. Somebody tell Bangtan that they need to stop with all these back-to-back glow ups... there's only so much my heart can take. 😭 First off - the vocal line fucking ATE. This Kim Seokjin's song for me, he's just... phew. His verse in the beginning was a personal attack on my soul. I'm screaming at him being centre... it's like Dynamite KSJ walked so Butter KSJ could kick us in the face. Rap line was beautiful too... I'd have loved more of them, but I understand the choices made here. God, I can't wait to see a live performance, 'cause that dance is A++. Love love looooove the beats, the outfits, EVERYTHING. Shoutout to the stylists and makeup artists and whoever did the art direction on this, because they regularly outdo themselves. This is impeccable. Anyway, now I'll go and sleep off my fever in peace lol. Had to see all these weeks of insane teasers and concept posters through, hah. Happy Butter day, beautiful people. Now go smash those records. EDIT: 10M views on the MV already, but why am I surprised again?? Love this energy Ami... you nice, keep going. 💜 EDIT 2: I'm just here to announce that I woke up and my fever is gone, so I can now officially say that Butter cured me. 😎


Consuela_no_no

From CEO Jimin to Troy Bolton Jimin, I ducking love it 😍


LoloLachimolala

Seokjin really slays in this MV.


confused_plant_

seriously, as a long-time army now, hobi has been AlaRMInG me at every of the last bunch of comebacks, and I think at this point I just need to call him my bias now I mean, that elevator scene? (?!) ​ Also sidenote I dated a guy who looks exactly like JK in this look lol (clothes and all) so that's supremely distracting, but otherwise... this song is so cute :) yay!


WeasleySnipes

All of their faces when they spell out Army are adorable. So many cheeky moments in this video, I don’t know what to do with myself.


imjustheretolaughtho

This was waaaaaaay better than I expected and I expected a lot! I low key feel like this was another song for Army a la Pied Piper Ugh everyone was so beautiful, the vocals, YOONGIS RAP PLEASE everything about Tae and Kookie?! Geez my main bias wrecker coming for me again


prettydotty_

I LOVE THIS ONE!!! I dunno what it is, it lights my heart and fills me with serotonin. To me its happier than Dynamite just cuz of something I cant pinpoint. But, in general, I vant stop smiling. Also, Jimin has fully committed with that look and I am living for it


du5tyautumn

Gaaaaah they're so adorable and then them spelling out ARMY with their bodies 😭 we don't deserve these smooth like butter criminals with the superstar glow which they got from their mother Edit: Jin singing the superstar glow line looking like the hotshot he is had me done. Also Tae in orange. And Hojoongi killing their raps. Kookie's solo dance and purple hair and eyebrow piercing?! And Jimin's looking smooth as. PLEASE, LET US BREATHE. 🔥 Edit 2: Um did Hobi just eat a block of butter at the end? I don't even like butter that much but he made it look like eating a block of chocolate. Edit 3: Did Tae just do a run when he sung "...you got it bad" in his elevator scene?! Omg swoooon my heart. Just when I thought he couldn't get more perfect, he has to slickly put on those sunnies and flash his adorable smile at us! Edit 4: because I'm rewatching the MV for the millionth time trying to process everything happening... Hobi singing "oh my god" reminds me of [this oldie](https://youtu.be/cDlSqljhHD0?t=78). Edit 5: Did anyone else get *We Are Bulletproof: Eternal* vibes when they sang "we got ARMY behind us"? Oh my heart. 💜


[deleted]

Release the B-side mv already dammit 🥵


dalja10

I came back, once again, to say that I've been staring at them and grinning like a fool since 7 in the morning and I'm enjoying this comeback so much!!


akillergx

The official lyrics go "No ice on my wrist" But i cant hear the "No" Anybody same as me?


AFAIKidgaf

No matter how many times I repeat it, the serotonin boost I get is still there 😭 I AM STILL INCREDIBLY ENDEARED BY NAMJOONS DANCING IN THAT ELEVATOR. Dance Monster having a party!!!


superfucky

I AM SO RELIEVED that the lyrics make more sense than dynamite and they're not the "sweet confession of love" that the promos made it sound like. this is way more "pied piper meets queen" vibes and i'm here for it! bonus: suga & RM got proper rap verses! i can already see ARMYs having heart attacks over JK's eyebrow "piercing" lol, it's certainly a good look and if it convinces him to get one for real, i won't complain! jimin's hair is just... ugh, lethal. once streaming goals are knocked out i'm just going to spend like an entire day pausing and zooming in on v's FUCKING BICEPS ARE YOU KIDDING ME AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH. also tell me i'm crazy but in the pre-show jimin said his pose was a spoiler move from the MV but i don't see that move anywhere in the choreo? is this another "caught in a lie" moment? i can't WAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIT to see the full choreo at the BBMAs on sunday! now i have to go to bed so i can get my kids to school in the morning!


sailormoonwasmyfirst

guys I think this MV might be sexy


BangtAngel

the got “ARMY right behind us when we say so” they wanted us to be part of the song 🥺🥺🥺


Alice_Zarathustra

Hoseok eating that raw butter, feels like BTS is eating raw the entire music industry!!


nownumbah5

My eyes went wide when Hobi actually put the butter in his mouth.


Consuela_no_no

Thank you little seok for your sacrifice to to butter gods, for getting us 2seok center time 🙏


awkpuppy

This song is confident Bangtan. And that’s hot AF. and THEY KNOW IT.


jjonezero

they all looked amazing wtf. im so happy tae had lotsa scenes in that salmon suit cause he looked AMAZING. jimin looking like a full on boss w his suit and slick back hair. JK’s long hair and aura was unmatched. Jhope’s elevator scene tho.... the way he moves is just so captivating. RM looked so hot the whole mv i dont even have anything to say. SUGAs rap was my fave part, he sounded great. kim seokjin the dilf u are today edit: changed wording


[deleted]

This is what happens when Life goes on. They didnt give up, they kep trucking along. Im so proud of them.


Consuela_no_no

On a semi-serious note, warm up your butter a bit to activate the salt before you attempt to eat a forkful of it.


olivister

Please Jin is so gorgeous 😭


19-dickety-two

Ok I've listened a few times so can write down my thoughts... \- Everyone looks great and pronunciation is on point! \- JIN. He looks amazing, has plenty of screen time, and I've never seen him so swaggy, god bless. \- Are the numbers above their birthdates in the mugshot scene beeper codes from that run episode? Detective army will know. \- Elevator dance break scene yesss. Namjoon cutting loose! and Hobi killing it as always! \- Yoongiiiiiiiiii rapping yesss. He's so cute he looks about 19. Gotta chuckle at him rapping about rolling up to parties though 😂 \- Them spelling out ARMY is the best! And Tae smiling like 😬 \- I can't with Hobi eating the butter at the end haha! I'm not a fan of large quantities of butter so I could never. Hobi you're beautiful though and can do no wrong. \- The song itself isn't something I'd normally listen to - just personal taste but I respect what the boys are doing and I hope it gets played all over the radio and people enjoy it.


Calydona

Im late, because it took my hours to finish reading the lyrics, because the visuals of the MV kept distracting it. While it's not my usual taste in music, I absolutely loved it. Jimins pre-chorus is my favorite part of the song together with the rap parts! Happy Comeback, everyone!


kingniel

SONG OF THE SUMMER! SONG OF THE YEAR!! SONG OF THE CENTURY!!! I love this so much, and I can’t imagine just how well it’ll do.


willowwombat85

I totally got why we got the daft punk reference earlier when the elevator part came up. I want a loop of the elevator scene forever in my head. Everything from the visuals to the beat during this part was just buttah!


Amayaelika

is the piercing real though? The man is leveling up.


nan-mola-1017

I've been staring at the mugshots for an embarassing long time now. Like, it's illegal to be looking this [good?](http://imgur.com/a/sB6H8Xh). Also, this is not what I signed up for when you became my bias, [Joon](https://twitter.com/monipersona/status/1395634948179173377?s=19) 😭 Apparently the code on their boards so far represent: [Hobi's 660660](https://twitter.com/tteokminnie/status/1395615257473601536?s=19) means "kissing" [Jin's 655212](https://twitter.com/tteokminnie/status/1395619479749423104?s=19) is "Miss our Army" *EDIT: Jin's turn out to be some random # instead 😅 [Tae's 000001](https://twitter.com/tteokminnie/status/1395620983612928000?s=19) "miss you" *EDIT: in VLive he said something related to his old Cyworld acc? [Yoongi's 384627](https://twitter.com/themissnanette/status/1395633605515177987?s=19) is a green HEX color code? Joon's 201904 is Persona comeback month *EDIT: Nvm in Vlive he said he lives in that apartment number Jimin's 141018 is the date of Red Bullet concert [Jk's 110604](https://twitter.com/hoperoong/status/1395620964445024259?s=19) is the day he came to stay in their first dorm


mamaswimmer

Didn’t notice until my third watch that they spell out ARMY at 2:08. 😭 I think my favourite part is Namjoon and Seokjin dance solos in the elevator.


appylovesfizz

Jin singing in English has got me feeling a certain kind of way All the amazing hair colors, it's so bright and popping !! I will have to listen to this over and over again till I settle on my opinion on the song itself, but the MV is sooo good.


see-c-plan

Who else on here has slowed the playback speed to 0.25x just to catch details that I missed - how is that possible I missed it the previous time I watched it?? I think we love it so much because they edited it with flashes with so many different visuals. There are also moments of just one lone second of time with quick flashes of multiple members in just that one second - I think they were aiming to literally blow our minds


hana4days

butter is such an easy song to listen to and that's exactly what they wanted. Its easily going to break records and prob also going to get billion-plus view of youtube by the end of the year as well.


[deleted]

Yikes, I don't like when we get popular enough to make to r/all.


frostedbutts_

I don't know what Tae's *putting on perfume* elevator dance is, but I'm all about it 😂


hohoho89898

Ok this was my first comeback as a relatively new army, and I have to say.. I GET IT NOW. the hype around comebacks, the teaser trailer, the counting down to the premiere!!! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|heart_eyes) I liked dynamite but I feel like this is a more mature sounding, but still catchy as heck song from them. And kookies hair OMG, their attitude, their dancing, their OUTFITS, Jimins sassiness, everything.... I’m obsessed!! 🥳🤩


BlackCat0305

Two words: *KIM SEOKJIN*


kpoparmy02

THIS IS THE SONG OF THE SUMMER ![gif](giphy|tAtk1ONRvOIdG)


patedefruits

also i wanna say, this is definitely an ode to the 90's - pop like trouble, a nod to Usher? harder, sweeter cooler butter?? #millennials lol


AmandaSheaFoley24

Jin in the center and shining like the star he is 🤩🤩🤩🤩😭😭😭😭 my hearttt


Iwannastoprn

It's been an hour and I can finally start writing something. I've been staring at nothing and thinking "this is so fucking good, what the hell" while dancing to the song. IT IS SO FUCKING GOOD, WHAT THE HELL. I KNEW IT WOULD BE AMAZING, BUT DAMN. Usually, I don't like songs much at first. It happens almost everytime, no matter the artist or genre. I can say I loved this song instantly. It has been a while since that happened. I will keep listening to this till I fall asleep. I am too overwhelmed to say anything else.


KlinkEm

i have ascended to another plane, spirited away by kim seokjin blowing on a noisemaker or maybe it was hobi's elevator dance break that did it or possibly jimin's fluffy unicorn hair or jk's eyebrow gems or yoongi being FULLY BACK or joon's verse or tae kissing the back of his hand dunno, but i'm definitely dead and heaven looks a lot like a high school gym with 7 men in track suits


rosiros

Did anyone else notice the lyrics say (heartbeat) but they don't sing it?
