Ask @bangtansubs:

hello just wanted to know in this page https://www.bangtansubs.com/progress in Upload Progress list it shows Reupload but no links where can i find it ? thank you so much

Hi!
The titles themselves are links! Clicking the title of the video you want to see should take you to the corresponding page on our site. It was only a tracker for us to use internally at first so the entire list isn't hyperlinked yet, but we're working on that~

For positions such as these, we'd like to suggest filling in the 'Other' form from our applications page on our website: https://www.bangtansubs.com/apply
Thank you for offering your help!

Why there's still links keep on take down or unavailable. I have these links saved on my drive then when Im about to watch them it's already not avaiilable or turn to private.

If you're referring to Google Drive links to videos on our website: Google Drive has a set limit for how many people can view it in a certain period of time. You can bypass this by copying the file, downloading the file, or watching the video from a different server (if there's an option on the video page on our site)
For Dailymotion videos: Our Dailymotion accounts have been deactivated twice now, so any links to that service will likely be broken until we reupload them/link them to bangtansubs.com. If you check our masterlists (https://bts-trans.tumblr.com/subs) you can see which videos do not have a website post yet, and which videos have gotten taken down.
Hope that helps!

Is there a way for you to put links from your 'Progress' directing to the video? Im always on a look out so I can know when you upload a new video or re-uploading the deleted ones. It is only a suggest sop it will easy to go thru but if not then its fine. Thank you so much for everything.

Hi~!
Firstly, on our recently added page (https://www.bangtansubs.com/recent), we do link to new videos we've posted, and most (usually longer) reuploads we've done if you're ever interested to see what our most recent videos are.
With that being said, to be honest, I've been thinking about this ever since I put the list on the site. However, at the time of me writing this, that list is 689 videos long. The idea of manually linking every video in that list seems a little daunting, but I DO think it would be extremely satisfying (and helpful for people like you who look to that list!) to have everything on our site consolidated neatly like that. What I might do is link any new video that is added from now, and slowly work on linking the rest of the list periodically.
Thank you for your question and for your support!

Wow that was a very long time if its since pre debut. How did you find out about BTS and why you decided to keep on track with them for their contents?

The founding members of our team were just a few fans at the very beginning, and simply wanted to help bridge the language gap so international fans could get to know BTS better. As BTS grew, so did the team and the account alongside them! Though the team has changed throughout the years, the reason we do it is, at its core, pretty much the same as the original members. In the end, all fan translators just want to help share with the rest of the world~

+1 answer in: “What are your sources when adding videos to your site? You've been with BTS since their early years, did you keep on track about their activities/videos since then when you made the site? Thank you!”

Hi! First of all, thank you so much for your work! Second, these days I've seen many videos about copyright claims, etc., is it true that bighit is more forgiving with their content? Like in bts meme compilations various songs are listed below that made the video claimed but none of them is bts usua

Hi!
In our experience, BigHit does indeed *claim* videos with their content in it, but for the most part, they don’t take the video down. Instead, they will only claim the ad revenue from the video. This is the case for our BangtanTV subs on YouTube.
(There are occasional exceptions to this, for example if the clips in the video are used in DVD/paid content, or will be used in the future)
Thanks for the question~

Do you have the video for the behind the scenes of “boy meets evil”? I saw a clip on Instagram and it’s bothering me that I haven’t watched it yet. Thanks!

MaryJane Craig
There was a making video for the Intro: Boy Meets Evil Comeback Trailer in the BTS Memories of 2016 DVD but since our team doesn’t translate official BigHit merchandise, we unfortunately don’t have a subbed version for this.

I'm new to your website. I've watched a few of the translated videos. The following message then appeared: "unable to play this video at this time. The number of allowed playbacks has been exceeded. Please try again later". I then have the option to download video. Is there a daily view restriction?

Hello, hope you're enjoying our website!
Yes, on certain video files there is. Google Drive has a set limit for how many people can view it in a certain period of time. You can bypass this by copying the file, downloading the file, or watching the video from a different server.
Hope that helps! ^^

hi!I love your account and I already follow your previous dailymotion acct before they are taken down.I read before you lost some videos from 2013-2014 and hard for you to track them..can you list all videos that you lost,so we can help you to track them..

Yes! This is something we definitely want to put together for people who want to help us out with missing videos, but since there's a lot to cross-reference, this'll take a little bit to create. We're working on it though!

What are your sources when adding videos to your site? You've been with BTS since their early years, did you keep on track about their activities/videos since then when you made the site? Thank you!

Bangtansubs.com itself is a relatively new site. We’ve only just started consolidating links to our subbed videos there since November.
The team itself has been translating/subbing their content since before debut, though, (everything we've done having been posted to bts-trans.tumblr.com) and we’ve just tried to keep an eye out for videos of theirs since, for example: BangtanTV, staying up to date with award shows, and keeping an eye out for news videos they feature in.

Hi, did you stop sending weekly updates? I haven't gotten any :o

Hi~
Yes, we did stop the weekly updates. Our free trial for email newsletters ended, so we have to decide whether to continue paying a monthly fee, or if there are other options.
For now, the second chart on www.bangtansubs.com/progress will show what new/reuploaded videos were posted on which date (with newest posts at the top). As well, www.bangtansubs.com/recent has just been updated with a list of last month's new/reuploaded videos (+ links), in a similar format to the monthly newsletter.
Aside from this, we will continue to explore our options on how to keep you updated!

Hi, do you guys have any plans to sub the daesang speech from Golden Disk Awards 2019? Namjoon's speech was really amazing and heartfelt but I can't really find a well subbed version anywhere online. Thanks regardless and thanks to all of you for the amazing work you do!

Hi! Yes, we are still currently in the process of translating the speech. You can find updates on how far along this video is as well as others in our progress log: (https://www.bangtansubs.com/progress)
Thank you for the kind words!

Hello, I'm not sure if you've subbed this cause I tried finding it on your twitter page and since it's not a video I wasn't sure if you even would but do you by any chance have subbed/would sub the "Thanks to" from the albums? Thank you for all your hard work~! I look forward to hearing from you!

Unfortunately, our team doesn't translate text on the albums or other paid merchandise. Sorry about this!

Hi, just recently joined the ARMY after discovering BTS thru the award season. Just wanted to ask if you knew when they'd release the Episode of them at this year's BBMAs? Thank you so much for your work!

First of all, welcome to ARMY!
It’s possible that they will release an Episode, but as we are not part of the official Big Hit team, there’s no way for us to know if or when they will. Sorry!

Thank you for the subs! Fighting! For the fast progress! :)) I want to ask if you're going to bring back the deleted videos way back 2013-2015? Especially the radio shows and some music shows, the behind? Thanks!

Thanks for your kind words!
Yes, our goal is to eventually bring back every video, but due to the sheer amount of content that was deleted (some backed up, some lost entirely) this is an ongoing process that has taken - and will still take - a long time. We appreciate your patience and support as we do this!

Will you still translate Bangtan Attic for #2019Festa since BangtanTV added subtitles? As always, thank you for everything~!

Since it has already translated by BigHit, and there are SO many videos that require our attention, we’ve decided to focus our manpower on newer, unsubbed content. There is a chance we will get to it in the future, but as of now, we would like to prioritize other videos instead. We hope you understand, and thank you for the support~
