Today we will talk about the 10 fact about BTS team korea

It is no secret that BTS is the sound of summer this year. Whether you are into K-pop or not, you’ve definitely heard these boys crooning, be it on the radio, Instagram, or the TV. The K-pop band is on the same success route (if not better) as legendary boy bands like Backstreet boys!

They even performed at the United Nations General Assembly a few days ago! 

If you are a new fan, or are gradually falling in love with the seven charismatic boys in this group, here are some facts about BTS that you need to know to become a true ARMY. 

Three years old and breaking records with every move they make, the Korean boy band BTS is one of the peninsula’s rising acts. Without any English singles, they’ve managed to become the highest-ranked Korean act on the Billboard 200 and even topped the Social 50 chart.

But while they’re doing phenomenally, BTS  isn’t exactly a household name to many American music listeners. Here’s what you need to know about this border-defying act:

On the Brandwatch React team we love data, we love K-pop, and we love BTS. So we’ve created a list of facts based on our research about the band, their ARMY of fans, and another record-breaking year.

We used Brandwatch Consumer Research platform to search for social media mentions of BTS from January 1 2013 to December 31 2020. We’ve also incorporated fascinating data points from other online research.

1. BTS Stands for Bangtan Sonyeondan

While everyone has heard the term ‘BTS,’ many don’t really know what it stands for. Well, it is a Korean phrase that means ‘bulletproof boy scouts.’ In 2017, however, BTS announced that their name would also stand for ‘beyond the scene’ as part of their new brand identity.

2. ARMY Stands for Adorable Representative MC for Youth

BTS has done super well for themselves, and the South Korean boy-band group has garnered astonishing fan following from all over the world. Their fans are called the ARMY, the full form for which is ‘Adorable Representative MC for Youth.’ 

3. There Are Seven Members 

Most boy bands in the western part of the world have five members, but K-pop bands have been known to go up to double digits when it comes to members. BTS has a modest seven in the group. Their stage names are RM, Suga, Jin, Jimin, V, J-Hope, and Jungkook.

4. RM Learnt English By Watching ‘Friends’ 

The leader of the group is RM, which once stood for Rap Monster, but now means ‘Real Me.’ Kim Nam-Joon or RM is one of the best English speakers in this native Korean boy band and he has admitted that he got a grasp on the language by watching the popular 90s sitcom, Friends! 

5. They Were Not Always This Popular 

Now famous worldwide, BTS once struggled to make ends meet. As strange as it sounds, they once lived in a one-room apartment together. They were not an overnight sensation and it took the band about 3 years to come into the limelight. Big Hit Entertainment held auditions for the group in 2010. However, the band did not make its debut until 2013.

6. Suga Was An Underground Rapper 

Before joining BTS, Suga was an underground rapper with the stage name ‘Gloss.’ He chose the name because it was very close to his birth name, Min Yoon-gi. Yoon-gi translates to ‘shine’ or ‘gloss.’

7. Jungkook Wanted To Be A Tattoo Artist 

In an interview, Jeon Jung-Kook admitted that his 10-year plan was either to become a tattoo artist or the owner of a duck meat shop! He has not changed it to either become a tattoo artist or a composer/musician.

8. BTS Was Going To Name Themselves Differently 

Now that they are an international phenomenon, it’s hard to imagine calling BTS by anything other than BTS. However, they almost named themselves ‘Big Kidz’ or ‘Young Nation,’ deciding on Bangtan Sonyeondan at the last moment. 

9. They Produce Their Own Music

The famous K-pop group does all the work themselves. This means that they compose, write, edit, and record all their songs without any outside help. They do sometimes collaborate with other artists, of course. 

10. J-Hope Was A Street Dancer

One of the best dancers in the group, J-Hope has been in the world of dance for a long time. He used to be a street dancer with a dance group called Neutron. Jung Ho-Seok or J-Hope has won trophies in local dance battles in his hometown of Gwangju as well as national competitions!
