All about BTS
BTS, aka Bangtan Sonyeondan or Bangtan Boys, is a South Korean boy band that was formed in 2010. The band consists of Jin, Suga, J-Hope, RM, Jimin, V, and Jungkook, who co-write and produce their songs. Originally, they were termed as a hip-hop group, but they also expanded their base to various topics, troubles during school days, mental health, self-love, and work in literature and philosophy.
The group made their debut in 2013 under BigHit Entertainment with the single album 2 Cool 4 Skool. BTS released their first Korean- and Japanese-language studio albums, Dark & Wild and Wake Up, respectively, in 2014. The group's second Korean studio album, Wings (2016), was their first to sell one million copies in South Korea. By 2017, BTS had crossed into the global music market and led the Korean Wave into the United States, becoming the first Korean ensemble to receive a Gold certification from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for their single Mic Drop.
The group has also delivered several other hit tracks, including ON, IDOL, Euphoria, Go Go, Home, Run, Not Today, I Need You, Blood Sweat & Tears, Apanman, Just One Day, Spring Day, Save Me, Fire and Boy With Luv, among others.
