Hello readers!
The BTS I'm about to tell you guys is not BTS as in Behind The Scene. People who do not know them usually mistaken it as Behind The Scene. This BTS is not an ordinary BTS (at least for me). BTS stands for Bang-tan Son-yeon-dan which means Bulletproof Boy Scouts in English. Na ah, don't ask me why "Bulletproof" because that's just them, I don't even know why. They are a South Korean hip hop boy group consists seven members which are Rap Monter, Jin, SUGA, J-Hope, V, Jimin and Jungkook. They debuted in 2013. So yeah, k-pop or k-hiphop. But because they are idol (in case you don't know why they are called idol, click the highlighted word) so people would always considered their genre as k-pop. But I listen to their music and I would say they are more to k-hip hop. BTS is a group under BigHit Entertainment. BigHit Ent. is a small company which there are not many artists under their management. They are not "The Big 3" agencies in k-pop industry. However, BTS manages to bring them to the eyes of people worldwide. I am so proud of my boys :') Excuse my fan girl side.
I've been an avid fan of BTS since not long ago, it was early 2014. I was not into k-pop before this, I just didn't fancy k-pop. Back then, I only know Super Junior and BigBang through radio, I think? I didn't go to internet to search what they are all about. Back to BTS, I remember I was taking a week break from National Services and then I had some gathering with my best friends. One of my best friend, Farah Atiqah, is a real k-pop person. She knows every single group in k-pop industry which I didn't bother to care. And on that day (the day that set a whole new phase in my life), they were thrilled about something. As a good friend, I joined them and saw they were watching a music video. It was Boy in Luv by BTS. As I watched it, something grew inside me. It was my fan girl side I guess. I feel like a fool to write it like that. But that just what I felt, I can't deny the truth. My friends then asked my opinion. I was like "Well, it was quite okay, so-so". Well, I tried not to get involve but the song stuck in my mind. Later that night (it was like digging my own grave), I went online and searched "BTS" on Youtube. Ta da! I found lots video of them, and I thought "Wow they are quite famous. That's impressive". The first video I clicked on was No More Dream. That one video particularly hooked me to BTS. The message in that song means a lot to me. And then I know they are not like other mainstream k-pop groups. They spoke out for the youths. Their lyrics, music, dancing are just amazing to me. BTS wrote most of their songs, they got real talent! I love hip hop and BTS' music is so hip hop, I guess that's one of the reasons why I love them too. Then, I started to watch all their videos (variety programme & music shows) and I found out their funny sides. They could be clown too xD They are also actually quite close to their fans, ARMY. ARMY (Adorable Representative M.C for Youths) is the fandom for BTS. I like it how they keep updating their Twitter and Youtube channel for us, ARMYs.
Boy in Luv by BTS. The video that my friends showed me.
No More Dream by BTS. I become a fan because of this.
Ever since that, I follow them on the Twitter, Youtube, Facebook, every single social media they have. I follow their updates. I swear I've never been like this. BTS is the ever first thing I'm like obsessed with. I even waited for their comeback. I'm supporting them like crazy. I know every songs of them. I even bought their albums. The very first album of BTS that I bought was Danger. It was their first full album. My family thought this would be temporary because I hardly to stick up with one thing but I prove them wrong. I am so blessed because my family support me. They even know BTS now. Sometimes my parents would hum along if I play BTS songs which I find it very funny. My father never reluctantly bought me the albums. He even sponsored me the ticket to BTS' concert last year! 6th June 2015 was a miracle and memorable moment for me, the day I found out BTS is real!! I watched them sing and dance alive! I'm so happy to be able to see them in person. They are seriously beautiful! Thanks to my babah, of course xD And until today, I am still with BTS. I witnessed every achievement BTS has made. I will never stop seeing them growing because BTS gives me hope. BTS is the one that makes me happy when I'm not. I am a proud ARMY! :D
