All the underdogs in the world
A day may come when we lose
But it is not today
Today we fight!

No not today
언젠가 꽃은 지겠지
But no not today
그 때가 오늘은 아니지
No no not today
아직은 죽기엔
Too good day
No no not today
No no no, not today

그래 우리는 extra
But still part of this world
Extra plus ordinary
그것도 별 거 아녀
오늘은 절대 죽지 말아
빛은 어둠을 뚫고 나가
새 세상 너도 원해
Oh baby yes I want it

날아갈 수 없음 뛰어
Today we will survive
뛰어갈 수 없음 걸어
Today we will survive

He is wearing a red jacket in this video and has black/blue hair. He's a rapper. We sometimes call him Motionless Min because he's very "slow" and avoids doing anything in his free time. He's far from lazy though. You can check out his mixtape called 'Agust D'. ❤️

Jungkook (Jeon Jungkook):

He has a brownish hair in this video. He's a vocalist and a dancer. He also raps sometimes. We call him golden maknae because he's the youngest in the group and can sing, rap, dance, draw, cook etc. His motto is: "Living without passion is like being dead". ❤️

Jimin (Park Jimin):

J-Hope (Jung Hoseok):

He is wearing a white cap. He's a rapper and a dancer. He's our little sunshine, full of positive energy. He chose the name "J-Hope" as his stage name because he wants to be a source of light and hope for his fans. Best dancer in the group. ❤

Jin (Kim Seokjin):

A.R.M.Y. stands for Adorable Representative M.C for Youth. 💖

Tip: Try not to remember them for their hair colors because they dye their hair often.

Once again, you're more than welcome to our family. 💕 You'll enjoy it, and once you become an ARMY, there's no going back😜

Once you JimIN, you can't JimOut.😂❤

-i didn't write who is main or lead dancer/rapper/vocalist because some sites say main and some say lead so it's best like this😊
