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.

The lyrics of BOY IN LUV -Japanese Ver.- by BTS speak about the emotions of a boy who is deeply in love and desperately wants to meet his beloved. The chorus of the song repeatedly emphasizes that he wants to meet and love, and now he wants to see that love. The second verse portrays the feelings of confusion and frustration that arise when he compares himself to his dad, who knew how to express his love to his mom, and realizes that he feels like a "small boy" who doesn't understand how to show his love. The bridge of the song reveals the girl's appearance as a "bad, bad girl," who is initially hard to read and get through to, but the boy is so in love with her that he won't let her go no matter what.
The lyrics of the song depict the restless and impatient feelings of a young boy who is crazy in love. The boy is plagued by intense emotions, ranging from extreme desire, frustration, confusion, and impatience. The lyrics show the emotional complexity that can come with first loves and the frustration of being unable to express oneself adequately. The song urges the listener to hold on to what they want, even if it's hard to attain, and not give up on love.

Best dance cover ever!! That was so cool
@sierramist9761
Why are they basically their own kpop group 😭 SO GOOOOOD
@gladysmronda9802
Your Academy never fails to impress across all age levels...
Every BTS song performed is sooooo well executed, but I have to say that this one is top-tier personal fave - it's got that extra something-something topped with mad swagger 💯😁👌💯 Super-cheeky opening shot is so BTS!
Love playing it on repeat
Would be fabulous if your Academy could be the dancers backing up BTS after they fulfill their military responsibilities 🤩
Sigh... we can dream, can't we? ☺️
You do your country proud (obvious dedication to excellence - just like BTS- serious martial arts skills, and the imagination/creativity to elevate it to beautiful, thoroughly enjoyable performance art, at such young ages!!! - again, just like BTS! )😲👏👏👏
I sincerely hope your instructors and parents are proud of your accomplishments and verve, and I hope all of you are equally as proud and pleased with each other.
FIGHTING! 💜🔥💜

7 year ago I didn't even know that this was a kpop song. I was 10 years old and my brother showed me this video. We fall in love with this song and after 3 year I started to enjoy kpop and fell in love with BTS , and then I found out that this is their song I felt very thankful to them for making my childhood beautiful
@user-xy2hm6jm9h
how come they are so good at both taekwando and dancing 😭
@MingTheMelon
Atiqa Asma maybe idk. Do tarkwondo cause you will get good at dance too... I wish
@hibyemai2438
Atiqa Asma I take Taekwondo and... I can't dance but I can do the kicks and blocks
@realdewi
Muscle memories. Repeatedly doing certain moves, your body began remembering the way to re-create certain movement. In my experience, taekwondo practice consist of many repeated moves, it was almost like dancing.
I did taekwondo and dance at my junior high. One way to promote (to the freshmen) taekwondo in my school back then was to dance while adding certain taekwondo moves on the dance. Also not to forget we also perform the infamous punching boards and flying kick.
SHINee's Lucifer is a good song to do it, taekwondo and dancing, it has a lot of sharp movements. They have certain moves that almost familiar to taekwondo movement, like in the chorus. I'm able to remember the choreography less than a week because I was familiar with the moves (this is not bragging, I believe many others can do it faster than that).
Sorry for the babbling and the bad english.
@musicmakesone4846
You guys blow my mind away. The synchronisation, the flips, the kicks, the freaking pauses while doing a flip!
All of that at such a young age. You guys truly are an inspiration 👏
