BTS started off at the Big Apple for the first stop of their first ever USA tour '2015 BTS LIVE TRILOGY IN USA Episode II. The Red Bullet', and the concert was nothing but amazing! 


The concert kicked off at 8:00 PM with an introduction video featuring BTS as rebellious students in a run-down high school with a rather creepy teacher. The BTS members kick up out of their seats, leave the classroom, and enter the concert hall.

The first song the boys kicked off with was none other than "N.O" - fitting, as "N.O" pokes fun at the Korean education system - where they showed off amazing choreography. Fans cheered loudly during Jimin's flip. They moved right on into "We Are Bulletproof Part 2", and then onto their greeting where they introduced each member and introduced the concert.

Right after the introduction came "We On" and "Hip Hop Lover", showing a more quiet side of BTS than the first two songs - not that the crowd didn't get any less passionate! ARMYs were cheering on top of their lungs for their boys all night long. A second talk segment happened right after "Hip Hop Lover" where the boys shrugged off their uniform jackets in preparation for their next stage, which was...




..None other than "Let Me Know", Suga's well-loved self-composed song! Both the vocal and rap line shone for the song with Jin taking over Jungkook's part at the end so Jungkook could show off his amazing ad-libs. After "Let Me Know" came "Rain", another ballad from BTS that showed BTS weren't just your ordinary rap-spewing hip hop-dols. They transitioned into another talk segment - this time about their ballads.




A bed was brought out for "Blanket Kick", where everyone was waiting for one special part - where J-Hope and Jimin were paired, V and Jin were paired, and Rap Monster and Jungkook were paired to 'kiss' while Suga rapped in front of them. The sweet song went right into "Just One Day", during which ARMYs had prepared a special event - a fan banner reading "Just One Day with BTS" (in Korean). The boys were so pleased with the event that many could not stop smiling even when they tried! 







After the two sweet songs came another talk segment where they tried to determine who would have the aegyo part in the upcoming song. Jin lost the rock-paper-scissors battle at first, but they decided to pick a second loser and it turned out to be Suga. During the course of the next song - "Look Here" - Suga and Jin fought the last rock-paper-scissor battle and Suga ultimately lost, meaning he had to showcase a LOT of aegyo! After that, the rap line went off stage for a bit for the vocal line (Jin, Jimin, V, Jungkook) to sing the "Outro" from their 1st ever full album "Dark & Wild". The boys got to sing a second verse to the song that Jin himself had penned.




An interlude video that continued on the plot from the intro video filled the screen afterward, showing the boys throwing bullets at their controlling instructor and the run-down school. The boys came right back out with their debut song "No More Dream" with a special featuring from Jimin's abs and then continued on to my personal favorite BTS song - "Tomorrow". They took another short talk break to ask their fans to sing the chorus of love song "Miss Right" with them - fans did just that for the song and also for the next song, which was "I Like It". 


"If I Ruled the World" came next and then the vocal line stepped down for the rap line (Suga, J-Hope, Rap Monster) to spew out their rhymes with the ever-so-loved "Cypher Part 3: KILLER". After the amazing stage, Rap Monster reminded fans in the back not to push as the front would suffocate, and then the boys went into "Hormone War" with the vocal line joining them back on stage.




"Danger" was next, followed by a talk section where Jungkook mentioned a next time for excited NY fans! The boys then performed the song to get them their first-ever win: "I NEED U", and then of course the well-loved "Boy in Luv". They went back stage to prepare for their encore stage, where they came out to perform hidden track "Road" from their debut album '2 COOL 4 SKOOL'



As ARMYs who were present know, the concert ended abruptly after one encore song and neither "Dope" nor "Heungtan Boys" were performed. This was later revealed to be because of an unfortunate threat on one of the boys.





All the same, did ARMYs enjoy seeing their boys live? Stay tuned for more photos and video coverage, only on allkpop!
