<p>On Sunday, BTS member RM delighted all his fans, especially the Indian Army, with his recent photo dump. RM, whose real name is Kim Namjoon, teased his millions of fans with a bunch of pictures. However, what intrigued his desi fans was the print on his shirt, which had a special message for his fandom.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Taking to Instagram, RM shared a carousel of photos that showed him in a yacht, his funny selfie, a snap of a picturesque view, and other things. However, the one picture that has attracted the eyes of the netizens is the closeup shot of the singer's blue&nbsp;shirt, which had several messages written in different languages like Hindi, Bengali, English, Portuguese and others.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The fourth picture showed Namjoon wearing a dark blue shirt featuring messages in yellow written all over it. One line in Bengali reads, "Ami tomake bhalobashi (I love you)."</p>

Looking back, I became used to kicking open the door and leaving after being absorbed in reminiscing briefly. Even now, I’m still imagining our part 2. It feels like it can be anything,” RM added.</p>

BTS members share heartfelt letters for the ARMY to mark 10th anniversary

<p>Whether you’re a new BTS fan or have been one for a long time, you'd know that the K-pop band's fans like to call themselves ARMY. Here in this article,&nbsp;let's try to understand what ARMY means and why BTS gave their fans such an interesting name.</p>

<p>As fans know, ARMY was established as BTS’ fandom name in 2013. This happened almost instantly after the release of the band’s first single “2 Cool 4 Skool.” The word ARMY is an acronym for “Adorable Representative MC&nbsp;For Youth”, but there are other&nbsp;meanings to it too.&nbsp;</p>

<p>ARMY is the military while BTS is the armour, which is a metaphor for how the K-pop band and its fans stick together.</p>

<p>As per the famous website USBTSARMY.com, the fandom name “ARMY” also has to do with the meaning of BTS’ full name, “Bangtan Sonyeondan,” which translates to “Bulletproof Boyscouts” in English.&nbsp;</p>

<p>ARMY, however, wasn’t the first choice for BTS’ fandom name. In an interview on <em>The Tonight Show&nbsp;starring Jimmy Fallon </em>in July 2021, BTS’ rapper&nbsp;RM&nbsp;revealed that their fandom was almost named “The Bells".&nbsp;BTS's other six members are - Jin, J-Hope, Suga, Jimin, V, and Jungkook. &nbsp;</p>

<p>RM also said,&nbsp;“When you say BTS, it stands for ‘bangtan’ in Korean, not ‘behind-the scenes.’ I mean, for your information, It stands for ‘bangtan,’ and when you say ‘bell’ in Korean, it sounds like ‘bang wool.’ It starts with the same word, ‘bang’. &nbsp;So when we think of the fan name, someone brings up the idea, like, ‘What about the bell thing?’ Everybody rings their bells and [we’re] like, ‘Make some noise!’ and the bells are like ‘ring-a-ling-a-ling.’ But thank God that [it changed], ARMY is so much better.”</p>

Explained: Why are BTS fans called the ARMY?

<p>We often see BTS' fans, who are lovingly called Army,&nbsp;shouting "I purple you" as soon as RM, Jin, Suga,&nbsp;J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook take over the stage. It's basically fans' way of saying, "I love you," using the K-pop band's signature colour. Fans also get the popular BTS phrase tattooed on their arm to show their love and appreciation for the 7-member boy band from South Korea. But have you ever wondered how BTS or the Army came up with the iconic motto? The origin story of&nbsp;the "I purple you" phrase is as interesting as the K-pop band's journey as global stars.</p>

<p>Today, the colour purple is synonymous with BTS but that wasn't the case always.&nbsp;In fact, their tie to the colour was totally accidental and unintended. Kim Taehyung, whose stage name is V, first said "I purple you" during BTS' third muster,&nbsp;an annual fan meeting held in November 2016.</p>

<p>To explain the reason behind using the colour "purple" instead of "love", V said,&nbsp;"Do you know what purple means? Purple is the last colour of all the rainbow colours, so it means I will trust and love you for a long time."</p>

<p>Later, however, V admitted that he completely made it up. "I just made it up," V said, before adding, "I wish I can see you for a long time, just like the meaning of purple. We'll always trust you and go up the stairs with you."&nbsp;</p>

<p>From that point on, Army&nbsp;declared purple as BTS' official colour, and "I purple you" as their adorable way of saying, "I love you to the moon and back".</p>

<p>You'll often see BTS members saying the line after ending their speeches or at concerts. It's their way of thanking the Army for their support.</p>

<p>Out of all the members, V tends to say "I purple you" the most, for obvious reasons. On November 13 last year,&nbsp;fans celebrated the sixth anniversary of the phrase.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In just a few days, BTS will celebrate their 10th work anniversary with a special event called Festa. The K-pop group&nbsp;made their debut as a band in 2013 with the release of their single "No More Dream".&nbsp;</p>
