The studio album also marked the end of the ‘school era.’
Throughout their various mini albums and a first studio album, Dark & Wild, BTS continued to display a rebellious concept with the addition of a newfound romance. The septet debuted on June 13, 2013, with “No More Dream,” of their debut single album 2 Cool 4 Skool, which encourages their listeners to achieve their dreams. The combination of their musical storytelling and aesthetic, powerful and heavily choreographed stage performances, and sneak peeks into their daily life through social media has earned them a loyal fanbase called ARMY. The members are heavily involved in their music production, 90 percent of their lyrics are penned by them and some of them also act as producers.īTS combines various genres of music, ranging from pop sounds like on “I Need U,” hip-hop ( “욱 (UGH!)”) or moombahton ( “피 땀 눈물 (Blood Sweat & Tears)”), to British rock in “봄날 (Spring Day).” Lyrically, they lean heavily on the struggles and excitement of youth, but they also criticize social issues through songs like “뱁새 (Silver Spoon)” and “Am I Wrong,” causing them to be perceived as one of the more socially conscious k-pop artists. The group is currently one of the most recognized music acts worldwide, and holds over 20 Guinness World Records, and won over 350 main music awards. The group’s name is an acronym for ‘Bangtan Sonyeondan’ (방탄소년단) which translates into ‘Bulletproof Boy Scouts.’ BTS is a South Korean pop (hip-hop influenced) group consisting of RM, Jin, SUGA, j-hope, Jimin, V and Jung Kook.
