ARMY tuning in from all over the world, hello! Welcome to BTS' Countdown Live!
Let's start by saying hello
Two, three, Bangtan! Hello we're BTS!
What are you eating?
Pizza, no. Hey, ARMY!
I was having pizza
I'm sure all of you are excited for the release of "Dynamite"
Sorry. Why does my line start so early?
I'm really happy to wait for the release with you all
Yup. Okay
That's right. You must be tuning in on your phone or at home
So we've decorated the place...
This looks exactly like him! Just look at it next to him
No it doesn't
Yes it does
Can I see it?
Anyways, we've decorated the place like we're waiting for "Dynamite" with you
How is it?
It's really nice to be waiting for "Dynamite" in a comfy room like this
Yes, we have 30 minutes left
That's right. I get nervous every time we release a new song
But it's comforting being with you like this
You don't seem nervous at all. Everyone's eating pizza
This is like... Like...
Very chill
That 7-years-since-debut vibe
But we feel nervous deep down
Exactly
Do I feel less nervous because it's only one song?
Maybe
"Was it July 27? I think it's been a while since we did a live show together since VLIVE.
How's everyone been doing?"
Yeah, how have you been?
How have you been since July 27?
Let's say it in five syllables
It's been a month
Five syllables. Then let's start with Jung Kook
Five syllables of what? How we've been?
Explain how I've been in five syllables...
That's hard
Is that even possible?
Okay, uh... uh...
Clock's ticking, everyone
We're already delayed
There's not much time
We don't have time, you know? Just pass if you can't think of any
Second half of this year
How... how we've been
Okay, you've been "second half of this year"
Next, next
He must be working hard for the second half
I'm working on something
How about Jimin?
Oh, for me, I am feeling great
Oh, I am feeling great
Yes I've been feeling great spending time with the members
Next, V
I've been... Lately...
I've, been, lately, that's five syllables
Yes I'm done
Jin, how have you been?
Five syllables!
Uh... It was fun
Uh, it was fun
That's very informal
We won't ask why
RM!
How about Hoseok?
Me?
ARMY... Bo... I miss ARMY
I miss ARMY
Yes, I miss ARMY
Now, how about Namjoon?
Hmm. Mmm. Ha.
You have two syllables left
I love!
How about SUGA?
That's how you've been?
Only played guitar
Only played guitar! Wow
I know I started playing on 26th
That's right
So it's been about one month
He was the first one to give a proper answer
Yeah
Now we're done
Taehyung, you really didn't say anything. Tell us how you've been
For me, dessert overload
Dessert overload?
Did you have a lot of dessert?
I don't snack that much usually
But I'm starting to get into things that cleanse the palette
Let's do that with some Chilsung Cider
Sure
Ohohoho
This is one refreshing
refreshment!
Five syllables. "Chilsung Cider"
Moving right along
We've been working on our comeback and waiting for the day to meet you again
and we want to know how you've been waiting for the release.
So we posted a surprise tweet
How would you describe "Dynamite" in one word?
BOOM
Ah!
Isn't it bboom?
So many of you have replied so why don't we each choose our favorite ones?
Sounds good
Let's start with Jung Kook
Me?
Let's see...
What did they say? Choose one!
Ah! Oh!
I... Package delivery!
What?
Dynamite is a package
Please read the full sentence
Dynamite is a package
Like this, Dynamite is a package
Ding dong!
Why do you like packages?
I order a lot of stuff online
I feel like there's going to be "ding dong" in the lyrics
Do you?
I know
Oh, ding dong as the doorbell?
You feel like there'll be "ding dong" in the lyrics?
Feel like something related to package will be in the lyrics
When I order something, I get impatient
Right
When will it arrive?
So that's Dynamite?
Okay, Dynamite is a package
So when I open the package it'll go boom!
I choose "Dynamite is joy, anger, sorrow, happiness"
Oh, joy, anger, sorrow, happiness
An elaborate amalgamation of a kaleidoscope of emotions
Do we need to get into it that deep?
He was waiting to do that
Sorrow!
Can you write hanja on the tablet?
Listen! It means sorrow, joy and emotions of life
What does that mean?
Why is Dynamite joy, anger, sorrow and happiness?
It is happy to spend time with you during this tough time
That's what Dynamite is all about
I like this too
It's an explosion of emotions
BTS' Dynamite is hongsam!
Red ginseng?
Isn't that you?
It's not 'cause it has an "H" right?
It's not 'cause it has an "H" and "S" right?
Something about it draws you in
Red ginseng, you get fired up
Right, it heats you up
It's energetic and all that, right..
I really like this comment
BTS' Dynamite is forgetfulness
Forgetfulness! Oh!
It says, "I lost track of how many times I watched the teaser"
That's right
Jimin, it looks nothing like him
This is what I think
Dynamite is like finding a 50,000 won bill while cleaning your house
Whoa
How great is that, finding cash while you're cleaning
Can't get any better than that.
What will you do with 50,000 won?
Get game money of course...
Right, get culture gift certificates
That's Jin all right
What else?
There's another one in English
warm blanket in a cold night
wow
What does it mean?
A warm blanket on a cold night
Wow, nice
Are you his doppelganger?
What else, Taehyung?
I said that already...
Let's just say we did that together
-Great, why not
-They're thinking alike
my positive power
Why do you keep copying me?
treasure of army
Our ARMY sent in so many
That's right
Their descriptions of Dynamite are all so creative and different
Exactly
A big thumbs up for our amazing ARMY
ARMY, your love and support, you are my everything
Right on, everything
everything~
Dynamite will play as soon as our live is over 
so please stay tuned till the very end
Don't go anywhere
Alrighty ARMY, please stay tuned for the official music video.
It's going to be released as soon as this live ends.
Right!
There's no time to waste eating pizza
Dynamite will be released in just a short while,
We brought some songs that we'd like to listen to with ARMY while we wait
It is none other than "BTS Best Pick" Playlist
We have prepared something called 'BTS Best Pick' Playlist, which each member chose their favorite song.
Is this from Arirang? It sounds like it was translated
We really have 20 minutes left
It'll be out soon, I'm so nervous!
BTS members picked out their favorite songs or songs 
with special memories despite being super busy
Oh, the members did?
Yes!
They put a lot of thought into it too
I know
They were so cute
Can't wait to find out whose pick gets the most love from ARMY
What? Are we turning this into a competition?
Then let's start with j-hope
Oh, yeah?
All right, our DJ for the day
Who's the DJ?
Jin is our DJ
Jin! Master Jin!
DZ
Turn on some music!
DZ sounds a bit strange
Right, our first song.
Let's get it
Our first song is from j-hope
It's j-hope's
It's "Don't think about anything" by j-hope
It's really well expressed
Right, I picked "Butterfly"
Butterfly
This song reminds me a lot of the past
I think of the past when I listen to "Butterfly"
Me too
That's right
During "Hwayang Yeonhwa"
It brings tears to my eyes
You get that the most when you sing it during the concert with everyone
Both the solo and the rap versions are good
I really like this song
I really like it when we all sing it together
I really hope COVID-19 will end
so that we can see you and have fun at our concert together
We have a second and third song to listen to
We're working up to that
All right
Let's get the second song ready
Please stay with us with the DJing. Smoothly
Sound keeps cutting off
Next is Jung Kook's song
Jung Kook chose a song perfect for right now
What do you think it'll be?
Let's go freestyle
Moving into the second song
Hit it, let's go
Ooh, "My time"
Stay on your toes
Let's hear it
Time's short, explain it for us
This song really captures my confusion trapped between me now, and me back then
There's Begin and Euphoria too, but this one really expresses me
That's why I chose this song.
It's a great song
Hear some more?
We're out of time
Okay we're done
We want to hear more but the music video's 7 minutes away
The song is coming out soon
So let's hurry things along
Oh, it's me
Next is RM's song. What song is this?
Lyrics were just great
Jung Kook's voice is really...
I think this is the BTS song I listen to the most these days
I listen to this one a lot
I heard this one the most, so it takes me back
When I'm having a tough day, this song helps
You had tough days?
I did whenever you weren't around
Wow that must have been tough
Next song
What did Jimin choose?
Let's play Jimin's choice
Please tell us right away why you chose it
I think all our fans will know right away
This is the song that heals
This is the Answer. It's the song that's happiest when I hear it with your all
That was a great reason
Namjoon's harmonizing is great too
Now SUGA. Jimin can you set that abomination aside
It's like a picture from a horror movie
Focus
We've got 15 minutes left
Let's go to SUGA's song right away
This is a masterpiece. Why did you choose it?
We never showed this to our fans in person
Never saw with their own eyes, right?
Never. It's like a unicorn
An animal from legends
Legendary and never seen
It's shocking. That we never showed this in person
The performance's really great
A song like a unicorn
Not a unico. A unicorn
Was my pronunciation off? Unicorn
Unicorn like an ear of corn. Let's hear V's song
This is an amazing song. I love this one
I always feel emotional when I listen to it
This song has an amazing intro
I almost shed inner tears hearing this song
Almost shed inner tears?
Yes
Or shed?
Cried inside
Lyrics by RM are so good
Tears in the heart
Inner tears
Lastly, Jin
What is this song?
It's the teaser
Did we practice too much? Why do I feel like this is an old song?
Feels to us it's been out for two months
We heard it too many times in practice
Feels like it's already out
Me too
We talked about our Best Pick and our memories. How heartwarming
It's wholesome. Can V add a little more?
Come on, focus
Instead of just looking ahead
Don't scold me
Instead of just looking ahead, 
it lifts our spirits to listen to old songs
Thank you for that
Yes, I have no idea how to move on from that
But our new song, Dynamite is important too!
The release is just around the corner. 
We have 13 minutes left
Why don't we just chat for 13 minutes?
It's 12:48
Let's talk about the comeback
Who should start?
Jin
I'll start. This time...
We shouldn't reveal that
We're back with Dynamite
and when working on...
Can you please focus? Why're you all looking somewhere else?
No no no! We were looking at camara
Oh! OK OK. You were all looking at me?
Your ears turn red when we look
Please look at me through the screen
Dynamite is...
a hopeful song to present you hope and happiness
Can you please show some reaction?
So I hope ARMY enjoy the song with us
Dancing, grooving, working out, eating... 
Anytime is okay so please give it a listen
I'll go next
Wow, it's finally getting released.
I thought it's a fun and exciting song when I first heard it
I really wanted ARMY to hear it when I was practicing
and filming the MV
And I'm excited that you get to hear it in just a few minutes
So I hope 10 minutes will pass really quickly
so we can enjoy the song together with energy
We came back with a bright song so
please enjoy it with us
Who's next? V?
Yes
First...
Can I finish this first?
Bon appetit!
We have ten minutes
Taehyung eating a banana
Yes, that's right
We came back with Dynamite because we wanted to meet ARMY
and cheer ARMY up as soon as possible
We want to meet you in person 
but this is a time where we can't do that
We talked about this earlier but we couldn't show you the "ON" stage in a person
So we have so much we want to show you
We want to see you
and show you what we've prepared
I want to put on a show
Talent show
I hope we can meet ARMY after safely overcoming this time
Good
SUGA!
This is a tough time
We mentioned this in the press conference, but...
We didn't feel good about the situation
Not just us, but everyone's having difficulties
So this is a song we made to cheer ARMY up
so don't overthink, just enjoy the song
I hope this song provides you some comfort
JK~
We got some time left
Dynamite is on the way
so please look forward to it
I've been spending my time doing this and that
How about a little more energy there
You going somewhere?
I'm kind of
In this situation, but I've been looking for things
and having some personal time
trying new things
taking on new challenges
and I think I'm adjusting to things now
Things might see daunting, but I hope you can find things you wanted to do
things you always thought about
and spend some time reflecting, too
I worked on the album, on Dynamite,
drawing, playing the guitar like SUGA
Lots of different things
Crisis turns little by little into opportunities
and each moment is becoming very meaningful
I hope you can be the same
Anything else to say?
YES!! We've got 5 minutes
it's 12:54pm
Right now we got a firecracker, not dynamite
Let's up this energy now
I think everyone got up too early
No no, we're not bogging down at all
Alright!
We're just having a serious conversation
Honestly, I don't know what will happen with Dynamite
At first, I wasn't sure if this was the right way
Still now unsure, but we had to try something, couldn't just standstill
Let things push us down
That's right, can't stay still
We can't standstill
That's how we got prepared and
The more we worked on it, the more we loved this song
We taped a performance, it was really fun
It's just filled with joy, bright and refreshing energy
like a refreshing soda pop
I hope you can listen to it that way
dance to it in your room, let's set this thing off, boom!
Good
Let's have Jimin wrap things up
Just enough time for Jimin
As others mentioned already, we've all been going through this
We can't do anything about what happened
Be careful of things we can be careful of
We got lots of energy back preparing for Dynamite
We spent time with the members, talked, ate together
Do things like this more
It brought us together even more
I hope Dynamite will let us share this kind of time together with all of you
We got 2 minutes! No, 5 minutes. Four.
We got 4 minutes, guys!!!
We need a last sign-off
Then!!!
The final four minutes, the most terrorizing time for ARMY
I've got the heebie-jeebies
Let me experience it for myself!
I'm getting more nervous
I don't know, it's been a while 
and I hope people like our song
They will!
This is a real bop
Why are you so unsure?
Anyone who hears will think, 
"Hey, that's Bangtansonyo.."
Come on, say it for us
Oh wow, that's BANGTANSONYEONGDAN!!
RRRRaap Monster
Namjoon now,
Is it really time, now?
I hope you'll like it. I hope it gives you some cheer
As nervous as we are, I think ARMY will like it.
That's right. After the stream, the official music video for Dynamite will come up right here so don't go away!
It's time for the countdown
Three minutes
Two minutes 30 seconds
Going to the countdown
Let's say goodbye at 2 minutes
Twenty seconds
Is this New Year's Eve?
Feels like it
Is it going to be dynamite or a firecracker!
Firecracker? Really now
Get ready for it!
Give our song lots of love~~~
Bye~~
