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.

술잔을 비우니 그리움이 차는구나
그냥 다 지고 볼 걸 왜 난 따지고 봤을까
길가에 버려진 쓰레기봉투까지도
바람에 쓸쓸한 소리를 내 yeah
나의 백지에 널 좀 덧칠했을 뿐인데
정신 차려보니 이미 한 폭의 그림이 돼
너의 체취만이 날 온전하게 해
어서 날 안아
오직 너 하나만 보여 (보여)
나 오직 너 밖엔 안보여 (보여)
봐 공정하지 공평하지 너한테 빼곤 다
이젠 단 하루도 너 없이는 please
꽉 잡아줘요 날 안아줘 no
Can you trust me, can you trust me, can you trust me
꽉 끌어안아줘
꽉 잡아줘요 날 안아줘 no
Can you trust me, can you trust me
제발 제발 제발 끌어안아줘
여전히 너에게선 빛이나
여전히 향기 나는 꽃 같아
이제 나를 믿어줘 다시 나를 잡아줘
너를 느낄 수 있게 나를 끌어안아줘
너 없인 숨을 쉴 수 없어 난
너 없인 아무것도 아냐 난
닫힌 맘을 열어줘 내 심장을 적셔줘
너를 느낄 수 있게 나를 끌어안아줘
너의 품, 너의 온기, 너의 마음
다시 보고 싶다고 빌어
지금 이 순간 따스한 꽃 향기 바람도 (바람도)
구름 한 점 없이 맑은 저기 하늘도 (하늘도)
다 모든 게 차갑고 저 맑은 하늘도 다 어두워
너 빼면 시체인 내가 무슨 숨을 쉬어
아파 나 항상 cry cry cry
나 미치고, 너 없이 지치고
니 생각 수시로
다 미 미워, 매일이 시 싫어
날 울려, 링딩동
기회가 있다면 널 (잡아)
나 달려, 시작해 (count down)
장미 같은 니 품에 찔릴 각오로 다시 널 안아
오직 너 하나만 보여 (보여)
나 오직 너 밖엔 안보여 (안보여)
봐 공정하지 공평하지 너한테 빼곤 다

꽉 잡아줘 날 안아줘 no
Can you trust me (trust me), can you trust me (trust me)
제발 제발 제발 끌어안아줘
차가워진 니 표정이 말 대신 모든 걸 대변해
이별이 밀물처럼 내게 떠밀려오는 걸 대면해
곧 마지막이란 걸 알지만 널 놓아줄 수는 없는걸
말하지 마 떠나지 마 조용히 나를 안아줘 girl
날 잡아줘요 날 안아줘 (꽉 안아줘)
Trust me (trust me), trust me (trust me), trust me (wow)
꽉 잡아줘요 날 안아줘 no
Can you trust me, can you trust me

The image of even an abandoned garbage bag rustling in the wind emphasizes the sense of loneliness and echoes the feeling of being abandoned. The singer realizes that the blank canvas in his mind has been filled with the person he misses, and his entire being is now entwined with memories of that person.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the longing to be held and the all-consuming desire for one person. The lyrics state that there's no one else but the beloved, reminding the listener that in the face of love, everything else fades away.

The song ends on a note of desperation, with the singer begging the beloved not to leave and to hold him tightly.

술잔을 비우니 그리움이 차는구나
As I finish my drink, I feel nostalgic
그냥 다 지고 볼 걸 왜 난 따지고 봤을까
I regret scrutinizing every little thing instead of letting go
길가에 버려진 쓰레기봉투까지도 바람에 쓸쓸한 소리를 내 yeah
Even the discarded trash bags on the road make a lonely sound in the wind
나의 백지에 널 좀 덧칠했을 뿐인데 정신 차려보니 이미 한 폭의 그림이 돼
Without even realizing it, I added you to the blank canvas of my life and you became a complete picture
너와 난 핸드폰, 떨어지면 고장 날 걸 너도 알잖아
Both you and I are like mobile phones, if we drop, we might break, and you know that
너의 체취만이 날 온전하게 해
Only your scent makes me complete
어서 날 안아, 오직 너 하나만 보여 (보여)
Hurry up and hold me, I see only you (I see)
나 오직 너 밖엔 안보여 (보여)
I see nothing but you (I see)
봐 공정하지 공평하지 너한테 빼곤 다
Look, everything is fair except for you
이젠 단 하루도 너 없이는 please
Now, I can't go a single day without you, please
꽉 잡아줘요 날 안아줘 no
Hold me tight, hug me, no
Can you trust me, can you trust me, can you trust me
Can you trust me, can you trust me, can you trust me
꽉 끌어안아줘, Can you trust me, can you trust me 제발 제발 제발 끌어안아줘
Hold me tight, Can you trust me, can you trust me, please, please, please hold me tight
여전히 너에게선 빛이나 여전히 향기 나는 꽃 같아
You still shine like a light and smell like a flower to me
이제 나를 믿어줘 다시 나를 잡아줘
Now, believe in me, hold me again
너를 느낄 수 있게 나를 끌어안아줘
Hold me tight so I can feel you
너 없인 숨을 쉴 수 없어 난
I can't breathe without you
너 없인 아무것도 아냐 난
I'm nothing without you
닫힌 맘을 열어줘 내 심장을 적셔줘 너의 품, 너의 온기, 너의 마음
Open my closed heart, ignite my heart, your arms, your warmth, your heart
다시 보고 싶다고 빌어
I beg to see you again
지금 이 순간 따스한 꽃 향기 바람도 (바람도) 구름 한 점 없이 맑은 저기 하늘도 (하늘도) 다 모든 게 차갑고 저 맑은 하늘도 다 어두워
Right now, even the warm scent of flowers, the wind, the clear sky without a single cloud, everything is cold and even the clear sky is dark without you
너 빼면 시체인 내가 무슨 숨을 쉬어
Without you, I am like a corpse, why should I breathe
아파 나 항상 cry cry cry 나 미치고, 너 없이 지치고
It hurts, I am always cry, cry, cry, I'm going crazy, I'm tired without you
니 생각 수시로 다 미 미워, 매일이 시 싫어
I always hate thinking of you, I hate every day
날 울려, 링딩동, 기회가 있다면 널 잡아 나 달려, 시작해 (count down)
Make me cry, ring-a-ding-dong, if there is a chance, I'll run to catch you, start (count down)
장미 같은 니 품에 찔릴 각오로 다시 널 안아
I am ready to be pierced by your rose-like embrace, hold you again
나 오직 너 밖엔 안보여 (안보여)
I see nothing but you (I don't see)
꽉 잡아줘 날 안아줘 no
Hold me tight, hug me, no
Can you trust me (trust me), can you trust me (trust me)
Can you trust me (trust me), can you trust me (trust me)
차가워진 니 표정이 말 대신 모든 걸 대변해
Your cold expression speaks louder than words and represents everything
이별이 밀물처럼 내게 떠밀려오는 걸 대면해
I face the fact that the breakup is approaching me like the tide
곧 마지막이란 걸 알지만 널 놓아줄 수는 없는걸
I know it's going to be the last, but I can't let you go
말하지 마 떠나지 마 조용히 나를 안아줘 girl
Don't say anything, don't leave, quietly hold me girl
날 잡아줘요 날 안아줘 (꽉 안아줘) Trust me (trust me), trust me (trust me), trust me (wow)
Hold me, hug me (hold me tight) trust me (trust me), trust me (trust me), trust me (wow)
여전히 너에게선 빛이나 (빛이나) 여전히 향기 나는 꽃 같아 (향기 나는 꽃 같아)
You still shine like a light and smell like a flower to me
