BTS (Hangul: 방탄소년단; RR: Bangtan Sonyeondan), also known as the Bangtan Boys, is a seven-member South Korean boy band formed by Big Hit Entertainment. They debuted on June 12, 2013 with the song "No More Dream" from their first album 2 Cool 4 Skool. They won several New Artist of the Year awards for the track, including at the 2013 Melon Music Awards and Golden Disc Awards and the 2014 Seoul Music Awards. The band continued to rise to widespread prominence with their subsequent albums Dark & Wild (2014), The Most Beautiful Moment in Life, Part 2 (2015) and The Most Beautiful Moment in Life: Young Forever (2016), with the latter two entering the U.S. Billboard 200.[4] The Most Beautiful Moment in Life: Young Forever went on to win the Album of the Year award at the 2016 Melon Music Awards.[5]
Their second full album, Wings (2016),[6] peaked at number 26 on the Billboard 200, which marked the highest chart ranking for a K-pop album ever.[7] In their native South Korea, Wings became the best selling album in the Gaon Album Chart history at the time.[8] The album went on to sell more than 1.5 million copies, making it BTS' first "million seller",[9] and the group was subsequently awarded Artist of the Year at the 2016 Mnet Asian Music Awards.[10] The group's next release, Love Yourself: Her (2017),[11] debuted at number seven on the Billboard 200,[12] marking the highest rank for an Asian artist in history. The group also managed to debut on the Billboard Hot 100 for the first time with the album's title track, "DNA", which entered at number 85 and peaked at number 67.[13] Another track from the album, "Mic Drop", was remixed by Steve Aoki with a feature by Desiigner and peaked at number 28 on the Billboard Hot 100. Both tracks went on to be certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America, a first for any Korean act ever.[14] The album sold over 1.2 million copies on South Korea's Gaon Album Chart in its first month, reclaiming its title as the best selling album in the chart's history and becoming the biggest selling Korean album by month in 16 years, coming second to G.o.d's album in 2001.[15] BTS was awarded the Mnet Asian Music Award for Artist of the Year for the second year in a row in 2017.[16] Their third full album Love Yourself: Tear (2018), debuted at number one on the Billboard 200,[17] making them the only K-Pop act to achieve this feat so far. Since their debut, they have sold an estimated 7 million albums worldwide.[18][19]
Known for their large social media presence, BTS were listed by Forbes as the most retweeted artist on Twitter in March 2016.[20] Following that, Twitter launched its first ever K-pop Twitter emoji featuring BTS in May.[21] In October 2016, Billboard placed BTS as number one on their Social 50 chart, making them the first Korean group to top the chart.[22] To date, they have spent 79 weeks as number one on the Social 50 chart.[23] That same year, they also charted on YouTube's Music Global Top 100: 17th on the video chart, 6th on the artist chart and 14th on the tracks chart.[24] In May 2017, they won the Top Social Artist Award at the Billboard Music Awards, becoming the first Korean group to win a BBMA.[25][26] In June 2017, Time magazine named the band one of the 25 most influential people on the internet.[27] On November 20, 2017 Guinness World Records revealed that BTS had earned a spot in their 2018 edition for "having the world's most Twitter engagements for a music group".[28] That December, they were revealed to be the most tweeted about celebrity in 2017, being "liked or retweeted over half a billion times (502 million)" worldwide, more than U.S. President Donald Trump and Justin Bieber combined.[29] BTS' achievements led the group to be ranked number one on Forbes Korea Power Celebrity list for 2018, a list ranking South Korea's most powerful and influential celebrities.[30]

Name
The group's name, BTS, is an acronym for the Korean expression Bangtan Sonyeondan (Hangul: 방탄소년단; Hanja: 防彈少年團), literally meaning "Bulletproof Boy Scouts". The name was conceptualized with the thought that BTS would block out stereotypes, criticisms, and expectations that aim on adolescents like bullets and protect the values and ideals of today’s adolescents.[31][32] In Japan, they are known as Bōdan Shōnendan (防弾少年団), which translates similarly.[33] On July 2017, BTS announced that in addition to being known as Bangtan Sonyeondan or Bulletproof Boy Scouts, the acronym would also stand for "Beyond The Scene" as part of their new brand identity.[34] This extended their name to mean "growing youth BTS who is going beyond the realities they are facing, and going forward."[35]
History
2010–2014: Debut and moderate success
BTS in 2014 performing at Mnet M! Countdown.
Auditions for a possible boyband were held in 2010 and 2011 by Big Hit Entertainment, and the lineup went through several changes before it was finalized with Jin, Suga, J-Hope, RM, Jimin, V, and Jungkook in 2012. Six months prior to their debut, they began to gain attention for their presence on various social media websites, as well as song covers on YouTube and SoundCloud.[36][37]
The group's debut single album 2 Cool 4 Skool, the first installment in their "school trilogy" series, was released simultaneously with its lead single "No More Dream" on June 12, 2013.[38][39] While the album peaked at number five on the Gaon Album Chart and sold over 105,000 copies,[40][41] "No More Dream" and the subsequent single "We Are Bulletproof Pt. 2" were not major hits.[42][43] Expanding their endeavors into Japan, "No More Dream" was later re-recorded in Japanese and released on June 4, 2014.[44]
The second part to the "school trilogy" was the extended play O!RUL8,2?, released on September 11, 2013, which sold over 120,000 copies to date and peaked at number four.[45][46] Its supporting singles "N.O" and "Attack on Bangtan" (Korean: 진격의 방탄; Revised Romanization: Jingyeogui Bangtan) failed to chart high. That same month, BTS starred in their own variety show, SBS-MTV's Rookie King Channel Bangtan, based on a fake broadcast station, "Channel Bangtan", through which members parodied variety shows such as VJ Special Forces and MasterChef Korea.[citation needed] At the end of the year, BTS was recognized with several New Artist of the Year awards, including the 2013 Melon Music Awards and Golden Disc Awards and the 2014 Seoul Music Awards.[47][48][49]

Artistry
BTS co-writes and produces much of their output, which some media outlets have attributed for their success.[148][149] The group's early musical style and image was influenced by hip hop, as seen in "N.O." and "No More Dream".[150] They later branched out into R&B and rock music with "Danger" and "Boy in Luv".[151] The members' solo songs in Wings incorporated a diverse range of genres, with neo soul for V's "Stigma", gospel for J-Hope's "Mama" and piano-rap for Suga's "First Love".[152]
BTS has been complimented for "speak[ing] honestly about topics they deem important, even in a conservative society" by Jeff Benjamin from Fuse magazine.[153] Tamar Herman from Billboard magazine noted that the septet often have recurring themes in their materials. Their "school trilogy" series - 2 Cool 4 Skool (2013), O!RUL8,2? (2013), and Skool Luv Affair (2014) – explored "the troubles and anxieties of school-age youth."[154] "Not Today" from You Never Walk Alone has an anti-establishment anthem, with messages advocating for minority groups[155] while Wings (2016) touched upon mental health and female empowerment.[156] Love Yourself: Her, in which themes were identified as "love, friendship, loss, [and] death"[154] is the first of four EPs of the "Love Yourself" series.[157] The second EP in the "Love Yourself" series, Love Yourself: Tear, was praised for its themes of "dealing with the cycle of grief that lingers through a separation."[158]
Grace Jeong, editor-in-chief of Soompi, praised the group by stating that, “BTS has something to say, and has a great marketing strategy that doesn’t alienate non-Korean-speaking fans.”[156] While they have received praise for their lyrics, in 2016 the group faced criticisms of misogyny regarding the lyrics of "War of Hormone", "Converse High", and RM's solo song "Joke", as well as a Twitter comment made by Suga. The group's label later issued an apology.[159]
South Korean president Moon Jae-in, in a congratulatory letter he wrote to BTS, recognized their sincerity and inclusion of diversity as the group's key to success. Moon stated that "Each of the seven members sings in a way that is true to himself and the life he wants to live. Their melody and lyrics transcend regional borders, language, culture, and institutions."[160]
