South Korea has repeatedly surprised the world with its musical talents. Now this is a group BTS, operating under the BiqHitEntertainment label. Many people took part in its promotion famous musicians. And the selection of participants took place throughout the country.
Although the group was formed in 2010, its performance at a music show in June 2013 brought it fame. And the number 13 turned out to be lucky for the seven members of the group. The audience liked not only how the guys sing and move on stage, but also the fact that they came up with it all themselves. Before their debut performance, the group shot two videos for the tracks Bulletroof Boy Scouts Graduation and School Of Tears, so the audience appreciated their work in advance. To achieve success, you need to work long and hard on the composition of the team, the quality musical material, its execution. And the producers held great job, which brought tremendous success.
Currently, BTS has tens of thousands of fans all over the world. By the end of the summer of 2013, the band released their first album. And the synchronicity of dance movements and incredible choreography were presented in the trailer for ten tracks of the album.
The band began winning fans outside the country in 2015, performing in Japan. By the end of 2016, the musicians had already released three albums and dozens of videos. They are distinguished by the originality of the combination of words, music and choreography.
The oldest member of the team is Jin, who will soon be 25 years old. He comes from the city of Anyang, and never thought that fame would await him. His song played a major role in the group's success. Hence the attitude towards Jin as the face of BTS. He is an excellent melodist, has good vocal abilities and dancing abilities. Success for Jin Kim Seokjin is an opportunity to work on himself more and more. The guy knows that he needs to move forward. And despite his excellent appearance, he wants to lose weight. And this is so difficult when you love to cook and eat delicious food. There is little time for this, but Jin hopes that his girlfriend will surprise him with delicious dishes.
Jin speaks excellent Chinese and English, drives a car well, as he has driver license. Best friend in his group he is considered V - V.
Of average height - 176 cm, with a weight of 54 kg, Suga Yoongi is distinguished by his pale complexion, for which he was nicknamed Sugar. And he dresses in white clothes. But for him, life is a search for suitable rhymes and rhythms. He's constantly composing when he's not at the gym. He also gives his all to training. But short breaks are filled with lazy idleness or sitting on Twitter. The rapper's erudition is surprising. He can answer any question - this is how Jimin speaks of Suga. No wonder the member received the nickname daddy.
Suga has a sharp tongue, which Jimin often gets into. A friend likes to joke and ridicule. When a guy gets excited, he switches to the dialect of Daegu, where he was born in March 1993.
Dancer and rapper of the group Jay Hope Jung Hong-seok is from Gwangju. He’s a sports guy, but despite weighing 65 kg with a height of 177 cm, he doesn’t like to exercise physical activity. The member is distinguished by neatness. After rehearsals or training, there is no need to clean up after him - in this he is an example to follow.
Among the musicians, Jay is especially close to Dzhelo and Ange from the group V.A.R. The boy’s love of dancing is especially inherent - he can select movements for any track. Before joining the team, he was a member of the street dance group, auditioned for IUP. He is currently the dance director for BTS, and free time busy assembling Lego, which he spends a lot of money on. Of the devices, he selects only Apple.
Fans need to know what it's like for a rapper main feature beautiful girl must be long hair and mind. He bypasses those who cannot think or reason. After all, Jay graduated from university and believes that his experience in the group will be useful to him in the future.
The vocalist of the group, Park Jimin, is fine without a pseudonym. They simply didn’t pick him up. Maybe there wasn’t enough time for this, since Jimin joined the team a year before his debut. He was invited to join the group right on the street. He dances well and has an excellent sense of rhythm. He wants to dance with Kai from EXO.
But the guy has no desire to write, although he has tried. But his friends advised him not to write songs, otherwise his compositions would simply put the audience to sleep. Good quality Jimin's skill in making friends is his. No wonder both Suga and V love to communicate with him. The main colors in the guy's clothes are blue and black.
Kim Namjoon was born in the capital South Korea in 1994, lived for some time in the United States of America and New Zealand. Can communicate perfectly in the languages common in these countries. The constant desire to expand one's knowledge and improve the language is characteristic of Rap Monster.
He takes the position of a rapper in the group, wearing black clothes. And how difficult it was for him to master at first dance moves! Basketball was much closer to his soul. But over time, thanks to constant training, choreography succumbed to him.
The youngest BTS member Jungkook Maknae, born in 1997, began playing music professionally at the age of 13. The versatility of his position in the team is surprising - dancer, vocalist, rapper. Suga and Hongseok look after Jungkook like a younger brother.
Maknae's favorite pastime is drawing, so his room is always a mess. And he loves bright, contrasting colors - red, yin-yang.
V Kim Taehyung is friends with all the members of the boy band, although at first they were wary of him and did not understand his quirks. But soon the unusual behavior of the guy began to impress many. V out large family, wherein the main role belongs to the father. This is exactly what V would like to be like, to become a caring, interesting person.
The nickname Monkey was given to the vocalist not only for his habit of biting his nails and touching things with his hands, but also because a chimpanzee once spat at him at the zoo.
The group was conceived as a duet consisting of Rap Monster and Iron. But three years before their debut, the idea was revised, and the group BTS was formed - Bulletproof Boy Scouts - which means Bulletproof. If at first this made the guys laugh, now the name has become familiar, and there is no need for another.
The group has recorded over a hundred songs that they wrote together. The roles are usually distributed as follows: Rap Monster writes the music, Suga arranges it, and J Hope joins them to write the lyrics. Some tracks are rewritten several times. So the song No More Dream was remade more than twenty times. But now it is popular as a message to young people not to stray from their chosen path, to follow their dreams. And the choreography for this composition was staged by Jay Hope together with former member of the group Donghyuck.
The most popular members of the group are considered to be Jimin and V, who have the most fanboys.
Interestingly, the members have almost the same height, from 174 to 181 cm. The tallest is Rap Monster. According to the constitution, one can also note the same weight, not exceeding 60 kg.
BTS fans are growing more and more every day. After the debut performance four days later, about three thousand fans of the group registered in the fancafe, before that there were no more than two thousand.
Young Forever's latest video took sixth position in iTunes chat in 2016. The song Fire was highly rated by four million listeners and is one of the top twenty best-selling songs.
2015 was a fruitful year for the group for music awards, including the World Rookie Award, awarded annually in Monte Carlo.
Many BTS fans note that their tracks are mixed different styles, but it was done with great taste. Particularly pronounced stylistic diversity in the song I Need U. No wonder the group’s albums sell out instantly. This was the case, for example, with the album Run, which ranks thirteenth in the iTunes chat.
It is interesting that in the families of each of the participants there is either an older or younger brother or sister. And V has both a brother and a sister.
According to journalists' surveys, the musicians unanimously named the lion as their favorite animal.
In the future, ten years from now, South Korean members dream of remaining on the crest of fame, continuing to make music, being cool and famous. And Jay Hope believes that he will become one of the unique ones in the Banqtan group.

As an underground rapper, I used the name Runch Randa. This nickname comes from a character my friend and I looked after in Maple Story. I read a lot of books and various written sources while writing raps to increase my vocabulary. But I haven't done much of it since debut since we're so busy. But as soon as I have an idea or remember Nice words, I always write them down in a notebook. For a while I had the nickname "The Dance Miracle" - I was so bad at dancing that my dance teacher and company staff nicknamed me that. The difference between the things I'm good at and the things I'm not good at is quite obvious. About dancing, I thought, “Well, that’s not my calling. Everyone has things they are good at and things they shouldn’t do.” But it turns out that anything is possible. Now they tell me that I dance like the very a common person. Although the participants may not agree with this (laughs). Although I don't show it, I get very nervous on stage. I'm used to seeing people on TV coming out of the illuminated doors on Mnet M! Countdown, so doing it yourself is very exciting and exciting. One day I went on stage without any microphone equipment, so I started to worry about that too. But when I stepped on stage, I had the feeling that I was in charge of this place. I think that kind of mentality is necessary for hip-hop. Because I have a strong image, I often think, “I’m the best here.” But, unlike what you see, in real life I'm quite shy. The guys say that there is a huge difference between me on stage and off. (Suga: “He wears sunglasses on stage and puts on a powerful image, but in reality he loves cute things. The Pokemon ball he got at a book signing is always on his bed.”) I have a habit of singing loudly at night in the dorm. I always sing, so I never thought that it would interfere with the participants. I realized this after some time, but the guys never said anything against it - apparently because I am the leader and was the first to move into the dorm (laughs). I think I improved by 7.80 percent. I'm always up to date latest news and topics discussed. It's very easy to forget about what's going on around the world due to our busy schedules. I am not happy with this arrangement of affairs, so I am following the news. If I ever have a non-celebrity girlfriend, I want to write her a song apologizing for being an idol. Imagine how much a girl will not like the fact that I am famous, since I am always busy and there are many fans who will still love me despite having a girl. I wish she knew that “I’m not as bad as you think.” Because no matter what others do or say, I know myself better. Also, even if it sounds arrogant, I want to say that I have not yet shown even one-fourth of my abilities. I have many talents and I hope to showcase them in the future.

Just imagine how much a girl would hate the fact that I'm an idol because I'm always busy and have a lot of female fans. I would like her to know that I am much better than she can imagine." - Repmon.
