The group initially formed as teenagers under Big Hit Entertainment and released their debut single album, 2 Cool 4 Skool (2013). Subsequent work such as their first U.S. Billboard 200 entries The Most Beautiful Moment in Life, Part 2 (2015), The Most Beautiful Moment in Life: Young Forever (2016), and Wings (2016) helped establish BTS' reputation as a socially conscious group. Wings became BTS' first album to sell one million copies in South Korea. By 2017, BTS crossed into the international music market, leading the Korean Wave into the United States and breaking numerous sales records, becoming the first Korean group to receive a certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) with their single "Mic Drop". The band is the first Korean act to top the U.S. Billboard 200 with their studio album Love Yourself: Tear (2018) and have since hit the top of the U.S. charts with their albums Love Yourself: Answer (2018) and Map of the Soul: Persona (2019), making BTS the first group since The Beatles to earn three number one albums in less than a year, and the fastest to earn three number one albums since The Monkees in 1967. Love Yourself: Answer also broke South Korea's Gaon Album Chart's all-time monthly record previously set by Love Yourself: Tear and became the first Korean album certified Gold in the United States.
According to Gaon Music Chart, BTS has sold fifteen million albums domestically and is the best-selling artist to debut in the 2010s. They hold the best-selling album in Korean history with Map of the Soul: Persona. BTS were the second best-selling artists of 2018 worldwide according to the IFPI's Global Artist Chart, as well as the only non-English speaking artist to enter the chart. The group has won Top Social Artist three years in a row and Top Duo/Group at the 26th Billboard Music Awards. Featured on Time's international cover as "Next Generation Leaders", BTS has appeared in the magazine's 25 most influential people on the internet (2017–2019) and Time's 100 most influential people in the world (2019), with the outlet giving them the nickname 'Princes of Pop'. Forbes Korea named BTS the most influential celebrities of Korea in 2018, and BTS ranked 43rd in the Forbes Celebrity 100 (2019) as one of the world's top-earning celebrities. During their 2019 Love Yourself World Tour, BTS became the first Asian artist ever to headline and sell out Wembley Stadium and broke the record for the single highest-grossing engagement in Rose Bowl Stadium history. BTS are worth more than $4.65 billion to South Korea's economy each year, attracting one in every 13 foreign tourists that visit the country, and are cited as one of the key acts boosting global music sales to $19 billion in 2018, a figure not seen since 2006 after digital purchases gained momentum.
Following the establishment of their Love Myself anti-violence campaign in partnership with UNICEF, BTS addressed the United Nations 73rd General Assembly and became the youngest ever recipients of the Order of Cultural Merit from the President of South Korea due to their contributions in spreading Korean culture and language.

힘없이 스러져만 가 내 사랑이
니 맘이 멀어져만 가 널 잡을 수 없어

어느새 차가워진 말투와 표정 관계는 시들어만 가는 게 보여
가을 하늘처럼 공허한 사이 예전과는 다른 모호한 차이
오늘따라 훨씬 더 조용한 밤 가지 위에 달린 낙엽 한 장
부서지네 끝이란 게 보여 말라가는 고엽
초연해진 마음속의 고요
제발 떨어지지 말아 주오 떨어지지 말아줘

BTS's song Autumn Leaves is a heart-wrenching ballad that embodies the changing seasons and the lost love associated with it. The lyrics speak of the struggles related to holding onto someone who is slipping away like the falling leaves. The first verse uses the metaphor of falling leaves to describe the powerlessness the singer feels as he witnesses his love slipping away. The chorus repeats the request to never fall and how the memories of the love that was once vibrant are now slowly withering away like fallen leaves.
The bridge then showcases the singer's inability to forget his love as he reminisces about their past relationship. The repetition of the phrase "never, never fall" throughout the song conveys the desperation to not let go of the love that was once so precious. The song ends on a melancholy note, reflecting on the beauty of their love story that has now come to an end.
Overall, Autumn Leaves showcases the versatility of the BTS members as they transition from high-energy dance tracks to poignant ballads. It is a deeply emotional song that represents the transience of love and the futility of trying to hold onto something that has already fallen away.
