“We Are Bulletproof Pt.2” served as the B-side to 2 Cool 4 Skool’s lead single, “No More Dream”, during the group’s debut promotional activities.
Along with “No More Dream,” it was performed live for the first time at a press conference on June 12, 2013, marking a sort of unofficial “debut” for BTS in the Korean music industry.
On June 13, 2013, BTS performed “We Are Bulletproof Pt.2” and “No More Dream” on Mnet’s weekly music program M Countdown, marking their official debut.
The song’s music video, released July 16, 2013, was directed by Zanybros and features an intense choreography by Son Sungdeuk. The MV for “Pt.2” helped push 2 Cool 4 Skool back onto the Gaon Weekly Album charts in week 31, where it reached a new peak at number 5.

(What) 긴장해 다
(What) 끝판대장
(What) We are bulletproof
We are bulletproof
Bulletproof
이름은 Jung Kook, 스케일은 전국 (스케일은 전국)
너희가 놀 때, 난 꿈을 집도 (꿈을 집도)
하며 잠을 참아가며 매일 밤새 볼펜을 잡네
아침 해가 뜬 뒤에 나 눈을 감네
이중잣대와 수많은 반대 속에서 깨부숴버린 나의 한계
그에 반해 재수 좋게 회사에 컨택된 속칭
노래 못 해 랩퍼를 당한 너희에게 랩퍼라는 타이틀은 사치
Everywhere I go, everything I do
나 보여줄게 칼을 갈아왔던 만큼
날 무시하던 많은 사람들 이젠
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh) hey shout it out
Oh! 나만치 해봤다면 돌을 던져
We go hard 우린 겁이 없어
(Click click, bang bang) we juss sing it like
(Click click, bang bang) we juss sing it like
Oh! 나만치 해봤다면 돌을 던져
We go hard 우린 겁이 없어
(Click click, bang bang) we juss sing it like
(Click click, bang bang) we juss sing it like
(What) 이리 내놔
(What) 긴장해 다
(What) 끝판대장
(What) We are bulletproof
We are bulletproof
Bulletproof (look at my profile)
아직 아무것도 없지 still 연습생 and 랩퍼맨
Yeah I do know that's nuthin
고민도 했지만 이제 필요 없어졌지
넌 아직도 아마추어,
난 메이저, 쭉 그렇게 썩길
랩몬스터, 말처럼 괴물같이 무슨 비트든 간에 난 싹 집어삼켜
충실한 이름값 얘들아 이리와 미리 봐 한낱 아이돌의 반전 하하
힙부심뿐인 형들은 불가능하다 했지 but
똑똑히 봐 이걸 impossible에 마침표 찍어 I'm possible 자 이제 됐니 boy
Everywhere I go, everything I do
나 보여줄게 칼을 갈아왔던 만큼
날 무시하던 많은 사람들 이젠
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh) hey shout it out
Oh! 나만치 해봤다면 돌을 던져
We go hard 우린 겁이 없어

The group comes together in the chorus to declare their strength and superiority.

이름은 Jung Kook, 스케일은 전국 (스케일은 전국)
My name is Jung Kook, my skills are known across the country
학교 대신 연습실에서 밤새 춤을 추고 노래 불렀네 (불렀네)
Instead of going to school, I spent my nights singing and dancing in the practice room
너희가 놀 때, 난 꿈을 집도 (꿈을 집도)
While you were having fun, I was focused on my dreams
하며 잠을 참아가며 매일 밤새 볼펜을 잡네
I sacrificed sleep and stayed up every night holding a pen
아침 해가 뜬 뒤에 나 눈을 감네
I finally closed my eyes after the morning sun rose
이중잣대와 수많은 반대 속에서 깨부숴버린 나의 한계
I broke through my limits despite facing double standards and opposition
그에 반해 재수 좋게 회사에 컨택된 속칭
In contrast, you lucked out and became an idol without any real talent
노래 못 해 랩퍼를 당한 너희에게 랩퍼라는 타이틀은 사치
You who can't sing but became a rapper, calling yourself a rapper is a luxury
Everywhere I go, everything I do
My dedication is evident in all aspects of my life
날 무시하던 많은 사람들 이젠
Those who underestimated me
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh) hey shout it out
Now shout out in awe of my achievements
Oh! 나만치 해봤다면 돌을 던져
Throw rocks if you think you can do better than me
We go hard 우린 겁이 없어
We are fearless and determined
(Click click, bang bang) we juss sing it like
We make it look easy, like nothing can stand in our way
아직 아무것도 없지 still 연습생 and 랩퍼맨
Despite having nothing yet, I am still an aspiring trainee and rapper
Yeah I do know that's nuthin
I am aware I haven't accomplished much yet
고민도 했지만 이제 필요 없어졌지
I used to worry, but now I don't need to anymore
넌 아직도 아마추어, 난 메이저, 쭉 그렇게 썩길
You're still an amateur, while I am a professional destined for success
랩몬스터, 말처럼 괴물같이 무슨 비트든 간에 난 싹 집어삼켜
As Rap Monster, I devour any beat like a monster, with ease
충실한 이름값 얘들아 이리와 미리 봐 한낱 아이돌의 반전 하하
Come here and witness the reversal of an ordinary idol's fate through hard work and dedication
힙부심뿐인 형들은 불가능하다 했지 but
People thought it was impossible for hip-hop fans, but
똑똑히 봐 이걸 impossible에 마침표 찍어 I'm possible 자 이제 됐니 boy
See it clearly, put a period on the word 'Impossible' and write 'I'm Possible', now do you understand, boy?

Incredibly resilient and unbreakable

@ramisauh2029
Before there were more rappers than vocalists but ever since Jungkook turned into a vocalist the vocalist part of the band had more people than the rappers
