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.

이렇게 말하니까 더 보고 싶다
너희 사진을 보고 있어도 보고 싶다
너무 야속한 시간
나는 우리가 밉다
이젠 얼굴 한 번 보는 것조차
힘들어진 우리가
여긴 온통 겨울 뿐이야
8월에도 겨울이 와
마음은 시간을 달려가네
홀로 남은 설국열차
니 손 잡고 지구 반대편까지 가
겨울을 끝내고파
그리움들이 얼마나 눈처럼 내려야
그 봄날이 올까? Friend
허공을 떠도는 작은 먼지처럼
작은 먼지처럼
날리는 눈이 나라면
조금 더 빨리
네게 닿을 수 있을 텐데
눈꽃이 떨어져요
또 조금씩 멀어져요
보고 싶다 (보고 싶다)
보고 싶다 (보고 싶다)
얼마나 기다려야
또 몇 밤을 더 새워야
널 보게 될까? (널 보게 될까?)
만나게 될까? (만나게 될까?)
추운 겨울 끝을 지나
다시 봄날이 올 때까지
꽃 피울 때까지
그곳에 좀 더 머물러줘
머물러줘
니가 변한 건지 (니가 변한 건지)
아니면 내가 변한 건지 (내가 변한 건지)
이 순간 흐르는 시간조차 미워
우리가 변한 거지 뭐
모두가 그런 거지 뭐
그래, 밉다 니가, 넌 떠났지만
단 하루도 너를 잊은 적이 없었지 난
솔직히 보고 싶은데 이만 너를 지울게
그게 널 원망하기보단 덜 아프니까
시린 널 불어내 본다
연기처럼, 하얀 연기처럼
말로는 지운다 해도
사실 난 아직 널 보내지 못하는데
눈꽃이 떨어져요
또 조금씩 멀어져요
보고 싶다 (보고 싶다)
보고 싶다 (보고 싶다)
얼마나 기다려야
또 몇 밤을 더 새워야
널 보게 될까? (널 보게 될까?)
만나게 될까? (만나게 될까?)
You know it all
You're my best friend
아침은 다시 올 거야
어떤 어둠도, 어떤 계절도
영원할 순 없으니까
벚꽃이 피나봐요
이 겨울도 끝이 나요
보고 싶다 (보고 싶다)
보고 싶다 (보고 싶다)
조금만 기다리면 (기다리면)
며칠 밤만 더 새우면
만나러 갈게 (만나러 갈게)
데리러 갈게 (데리러 갈게 yeah-yeah)
추운 겨울 끝을 지나
다시 봄날이 올 때까지
꽃 피울 때까지
그곳에 좀 더 머물러줘
머물러줘
The lyrics of "Spring Day" by BTS is a reflection of the nostalgia and longing for a past, that’s now gone. The song centers around the theme of separation and the pain that comes with it. The song starts with the singer indicating that he misses someone, saying that even if he looks at their picture, he still aches to see them in person. He acknowledges the hardship they’ve faced, the bitterness and resentment that’s developed between them. The chorus talks about how the singer longs to hold the hand of the person he is missing and go to the opposite side of the earth together.
The second verse draws parallels between their situation and that of a train, which has survived a harsh winter, but is now alone and abandoned. The singer longingly asks how long he has to wait, how many more nights he has to stay up to see the person he’s missing. He wonders if they’ve changed, or if it’s he who’s changed. He realizes that time has moved ahead, and that they’ve been left behind. However, despite all that, he still misses the person, and still wants to see them. In the bridge of the song, the singer mentions that though he knows their separation is inevitable, it still hurts him to let go, and that he wishes he could hold onto their memories just like smoke.
Overall, "Spring Day" portrays a very relatable, emotional and melancholic feeling that one experiences after separation from the ones they have cared for deeply. The song is a masterpiece, a mix of Korean and English, with a beautiful melody that sounds like a comforting breeze. The song has received enormous global recognition and praise, becoming a fan favorite all over the world.

보고 싶다
I miss you
이렇게 말하니까 더 보고 싶다
The more I say this, the more I miss you
너희 사진을 보고 있어도 보고 싶다
Even when I look at your pictures, I still miss you
너무 야속한 시간
So cruel time
나는 우리가 밉다
I hate us
이젠 얼굴 한 번 보는 것조차
Now, even seeing your face once has become difficult for me
힘들어진 우리가
We have become weary
여긴 온통 겨울 뿐이야
We're only in winter here
8월에도 겨울이 와
Even in August, winter is here
마음은 시간을 달려가네
The heart runs through time
홀로 남은 설국열차
The train alone in the snow country
니 손 잡고 지구 반대편까지 가
Hold your hand and go to the opposite side of the earth
겨울을 끝내고파
I want to end winter
그리움들이 얼마나 눈처럼 내려야
How much do I have to long for you like this snow falling?
그 봄날이 올까? Friend
Will that spring day come? Friend
허공을 떠도는 작은 먼지처럼
Like a small dust floating in the air
작은 먼지처럼
Like a small dust
날리는 눈이 나라면
If the flying snow was me
조금 더 빨리
A little bit faster
네게 닿을 수 있을 텐데
Then I could reach you
눈꽃이 떨어져요
The snowflake falls
또 조금씩 멀어져요
And it gets farther and farther away
얼마나 기다려야
How long do I have to wait?
또 몇 밤을 더 새워야
How many more nights do I have to stay up?
널 보게 될까? (널 보게 될까?)
Will I see you? (Will I see you?)
만나게 될까? (만나게 될까?)
Will I meet you? (Will I meet you?)
추운 겨울 끝을 지나
After passing the cold winter
다시 봄날이 올 때까지
Until that spring day comes again
꽃 피울 때까지
Until the flowers bloom
그곳에 좀 더 머물러줘
Stay there a little more
니가 변한 건지 (니가 변한 건지)
Did you change? (Did you change?)
아니면 내가 변한 건지 (내가 변한 건지)
Or did I change? (Did I change?)
이 순간 흐르는 시간조차 미워
I even hate the time running in this moment
우리가 변한 거지 뭐
We have changed, so what?
모두가 그런 거지 뭐
Everyone changes, so what?
그래, 밉다 니가, 넌 떠났지만
That's right, I hate you, you left but
단 하루도 너를 잊은 적이 없었지 난
I never forgot you even for a day
솔직히 보고 싶은데 이만 너를 지울게
Honestly, even though I want to see you, I'll erase you now
그게 널 원망하기보단 덜 아프니까
Rather than resenting you, it hurts less that way
시린 널 불어내 본다
I blow off the stiff you
연기처럼, 하얀 연기처럼
Like smoke, like white smoke
말로는 지운다 해도
Even though I say I erased it
사실 난 아직 널 보내지 못하는데
The truth is that I still can't let you go
You know it all
You know it all
You're my best friend
You're my best friend
아침은 다시 올 거야
Morning will come again
어떤 어둠도, 어떤 계절도
No darkness or season can last forever
영원할 순 없으니까
Because nothing can be eternal
벚꽃이 피나봐요
I think the cherry blossoms are blooming
이 겨울도 끝이 나요
This winter will also end
조금만 기다리면 (기다리면)
If I wait a little (wait a little)
며칠 밤만 더 새우면
If I stay up a few more nights
만나러 갈게 (만나러 갈게)
I'll go to meet you (I'll go to meet you)
데리러 갈게 (데리러 갈게 yeah-yeah)
I'll go to pick you up (I'll go to pick you up yeah-yeah)
