You were not wrong. This video is what is called a " stage mix, " a compilation.

💜The Truth Untold - for anyone who doesn't know.... this is how they conceptualised the song: They created a very old and sad story called, 'La Città di Smeraldo' that takes place in a small town in Italy ( in the 16th Century -1500's). The story's about an 'ugly' man who hid in an old castle alone, even though he was a gentle good person, because of his looks he received lots of hate & cruelty while growing up. He never opened his heart to anyone. Eventually if anyone tried to approach him, he covered his deformed face with a mask and hid in fear, ...So he became bitter and angry. His one happiness in life was to plant beautiful flowers in his walled off garden.
One night a woman appeared near the man's castle. She jumped over the garden fence and stole a flower. This angered the man at first. So he watched his garden all night. But when he fell asleep, the woman took another flower. This continued for several nights. The man pretended to be asleep and watched the woman steal a flower. He started becoming curious about the woman. He began waiting for her. Without realizing he started waiting for her to come and each day began to seem a little brighter.

Following after her one day he realized that she was selling the flowers that she stole from him to try to make a living. The man falling in love so desperately wanted to help the woman. But he was afraid she would be terrified by the way he looks if he approached her. He 'knew' she would never be able love his 'grotesque' appearance. He came to a conclusion that the only way he would be able to help her is to keep himself hidden and let her continue stealing flowers from his garden. The man decided to make a flower that doesn't exist on the planet. So that the woman could sell them at a expensive price. He began to create the flower in his castle.

After many unsuccessful attempts, the man created the most beautiful of all flowers (The Smeraldo Flower) and filled his garden with these beautiful flowers. But the woman stopped coming. No matter how long he waited she never came back to his garden. He eventually found out that the woman had starved to death before he could give her the flower that would have saved her. If only he had been brave enough to approach her😭

The smeraldo flower plays a part in the Bangtan Universe storyline, and you will see it in various MVs.

The Smeraldo flower symbolizes the sincerity that could not be delivered.
The moral of the story, as interpreted by BTS, is that people are entrapped in the depths of misery and darkness due to a lack of self-love and confidence. The protagonist would have probably felt much better, had he talked to her and confronted his fears and insecurities. In addition, another aspect is the way people are affected by childhood trauma and dysfunctional families. The man was highly affected by his childhood trauma caused by nasty comments made by people.

Have a WONDERFUL Day💜💜

If you love Jin’s tone and you are a piano guy, listen to Epiphany!!!

[G.C.FinTokyo]

Jimin and Jk's harmonizing at the last part beautifully.

[sking]

The Truth Untold and Fake Love are both on the same album —- Love Yourself: Tear.

It was their first Billboard 200 #1 album.

The album is the part of the the Love Yourself era. Love Yourself was BTS’ 4th era and included in order: Love Yourself:Her, Love Yourself:Tear, and Love Yourself:Answer.

Each album explores a different theme and together they create a story arc.

“Once you Jim-in you can’t Jim-out” that’s a famous line, me myself can’t jimout haha he’s amazing

[FlowersDream]

Yes, flowers are a recurring symbol in BTS songs, RM in particular seems to find inspiration on them & references them a lot in his lyrics. Also, you are correct the theme is connected to that of Fake Love. Both songs are from the same album, Love Yourself - Tear. Excellent album. If you ever wondered what a song from the perspective of the celestial object formerly known as Pluto might sound like, try the next track on the album, 134340.

[Kalyeeg]

They have some songs with just vocal line and some with just rap line. ‘Zero o’clock’ is another one of the vocal line’s beautiful song. Hope you check that out too. Their MTV unplugged songs as a group are also really good ones to listen to such as ‘Blue and Grey’ and ‘Telepathy’. Thank you for the reaction 💜

[Aloveaffairwithreading]

Once you JimIN you can't JimOUT.Facts of life

[ryleawakefield]

Once you Jim-in you can't Jim-out!!
Also this song chills me! Their voices and ranges and abilities are amazing! I'd love to hear you cover it!

[CHJ]

Epiphany by Jin is also such a beautiful live performance 🙏🏼

[kfadock]

You were correct, this is a "stage mix" video where they take the live track from one performance and overlay multiple live videos to get the best angles/outfits/moments etc. Notice Jin has both blonde and black hair, V is vibrant red in some shots, and JK goes from brown to pink, and Jimins silver/blonde .

I fall inlove with Jimin everyday. His voice just sends me to another dimention.

[SamuelGomez-ickt]

This song, “The Truth untold” is based on an Italian story, “La Citta di Smeraldo”. The story describes a man who is said to be ugly and lives in a castle all by himself. Read on it. It’s very interesting. This is one of my favorite BTS songs. Jimin vocals gets me every time.
PS. Most of the songs written by RM are inspired by literature that he has read. His an amazing lyricist. Another great & fun song that you should check out is “Anpanman” based on a Japanese children’s book. a story of an unsung hero. This song is so much fun. There are several live performances on YT.

I love Jimin high notes and also the cute voice in the last part....and I still want you, lol. Anyways, thank you for reacting. As always keep on going...

[heyvaedryn]

I love how you smile every single time Jimin sings hehe.

[EyeHeartJimin]

Nathan, I’ll appreciate any BTS cover you do. 👍 this song made me cry when they dropped the album it was in. They performed this song plenty of times at different concerts and each time it’s a difference in how they sing it. shout out to Steve Aoki for producing this beautiful track for our vocal line. 💜

[riricsk]

There are many versions of this song in live performances, but, when Tae harmonizing the Jin's verse, it is an absolute pleasure. My favorite so far, their vocals are amazing, so much talent.

[jimijin]

Aha once u Jim-in u can't Jim-out. Jimin-ssi voice in this particular song kills! 💜💜

[mickieb]

Vocal line songs always go straight to the heart. There is some book or story this song was inspired by. Steve Aoki produced the song and with a number of other writers wrote the song with RM. Hauntingly beautiful always comes to mind when I hear it. I am glad you liked the song and performance.
