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.
Best Of Me
BTS Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
난 하늘 위를 걷네
영원을 말해줘 just one more time
When you say that you love me
난 그 한 마디면 돼
변하지 않는다고 just one more time
넌 내게 이 세계의 전부 같아
더 세게, 아프게 날 꽉 껴안아
우리가 나눈 something
And you can't make it nothing (nothing)
잊지 않아줬으면 해, 넌 내
하루하루
여름, 겨울
넌 몰라도
You got the best of me
You got the best of me
So please just don't leave me
You got the best of me
나도 나의 끝을 본 적 없지만
그게 있다면 너지 않을까?
다정한 파도이고 싶었지만
니가 바다인 건 왜 몰랐을까?
어떡해? 너의 언어로 말을 하고
또 너의 숨을 쉬는데
I'll be you 날 쥐고 있는 너
난 너의 칼에 입맞춰
그러니 take my hand right now
이런 내가 믿기지 않아
속으로만 수천 번은 더 말했었던 그 말
"그대는 날 떠나지 마" Ooh-whoa
You got the best of me
You got the best of me
꿈인지 현실인지는 딱히 중요치 않지
그저 니가 내 곁에 있다는 게
Thanks
하루하루
여름, 겨울
넌 몰라도
You got the best of me
You got the best of me
So please just don't leave me
You got the best of me
넌 나의 구원, 넌 나의 창
난 너만 있으면 돼
You got the best of me
니가 필요해
So please just don't leave me
You got the best of me
비가 내리던 나
눈이 내리던 나
모든 불행을 멈추고 천국을 데려와
쉽게 말하지 마
너 없는 난 없어
넌 내 best of me
The best of me (yeah)
그냥 나에 대한 확신을 줘 (oh, yeah)
그게 내가 바란 전부이니까 (ooh! Ooh!)
우리의 규율은 없다 해도 (없어!)
사랑하는 법은 존재하니까 (ayy!)
Who got the best of me? (Best of me)
Who got the best of me?
