BTS’s recognition stems from their amazing music, beautiful lyrics, and top-notch dance moves, but their popularity is also rooted in their lovable personalities that can be seen through their various video series found on youtube and other similar platforms. Today, I will discuss several of the most popular ones including Bangtan Bomb, Eat Jin, Run BTS!, Bon Voyage, Golden Closet Films, Practice Videos, American Hustle Life, Hope on the Street, and Burn the Stage.
Bangtan Bomb
Bangtan Bombs are video clips that depict BTS doing literally anything! They started posting Bangtan Bombs in June of 2013 and have continued until the present day. As of now, there are 455 videos on their youtube channel that can be found here. These videos can range from anything between dance practice to a game of hide and seek, but the one thing they all have in common is that they show BTS as a group of fun-loving people. Some iconic Bangtan Bombs include:

Eat Jin
Eat Jin is Jin’s personal video series where he eats different foods. You can find these videos on the [Jin] EAT JIN youtube playlist or on BTS’s Vlive channel. An iconic Eat Jin episode is 160624 밥 먹는 김석진.
Run BTS!
Run BTS! is a series found only on BTS’s Vlive channel. It currently has 56 episodes, all of which involve BTS participating in a certain activity ranging anywhere from bungee jumping to dog training to pottery. The series is currently on hiatus now, but don’t be sad because the content in the first 56 episodes is enough to last a lifetime! Iconic Run BTS! episodes include:
Bon Voyage
Bon Voyage is a series about BTS traveling to different parts of the world. In season one, they went to northern Europe, in season two, they went to Hawaii, and in season three (which is airing now), they went to Malta. Bon Voyage is only on BTS’s Vlive channel, and it is a paid program.

Golden Closet Film (GCF)

Practice Videos
BTS practice videos are just what their titles suggests. They are videos depicting BTS’s dance practice and occasionally their vocal practice. They can be found on their youtube playlist BTS practice video. While their normal dance practice videos are amazing to watch, it’s their “chaotic” practices that are the true entertainment. One of their most iconic videos is [BANGTAN BOMB] ‘호르몬전쟁’ dance performance (Real WAR ver.).

In October, they post a Halloween dance practice too!

American Hustle Life
American Hustle Life is a series that shows BTS’s experiences at a hip hop camp in Los Angeles, California. You can watch clips of it on youtube, but to watch the full thing with english subtitles, you need to go on dailymotion. In this show, they meet famous people in the western music industry (such as Coolio) who help them improve their rapping, singing, dancing, and beat boxing. This is also when their manager pulled the infamous kidnapping prank on them by asking the hip hop mentors to pretend to kidnap them!
Hope on the Street
Hope on the Street is a series where Jhope posts videos of him and occasionally some of the other members dancing. You can watch them on both youtube and Vlive. Since there is no specific playlist for Hope on the Street, you can either type “hope on the street” in the vlive search bar or the youtube search bar to find them.

Burn the Stage
Burn the Stage is a youtube red series that you have to pay to watch. There are eight episodes total, which you can find here, and fortunately, the first one is free! It documents their 2017 WINGS tour and the hardships they endure behind the scenes.
These are just a few of the video series that involve BTS. There are plenty more, such as BTS Episode, BTS bokbulbok, Bangtan Log, BTS GAYO, etc. Many of the members also hold regular live streams on Vlive, and don’t forget to check out their interviews on famous shows like Ellen or James Corden!
