I do like to try different things. I figured I'd be able to have a variety of experiences if I were an idol and an actor at the same time. Reality had other plans.” YouTube videos featured members dancing, rapping, spending Christmas together; individual vlogs were made in the style of confessional interviews; Jin launched his own “Eat Jin” vlog in which he filmed himself eating. Suga himself was challenged on this notion when he had to work with in-house producer El Capitxn to complete “ Ddaeng” (2018) in the necessary time frame. Though he’d been afraid of “slight imperfections,” he realized that the level of work didn’t suffer because of it. This change of philosophy freed him to pair with El Capitxn to produce for other artists like Epik High, Heize, IU, and Psy.

When we get lots of awards like that... it got ridiculous. Because we’d said only the things we thought we could never achieve, and then we achieved all of them. I think it’s strange.” It was a super pleasant read (gulped it down in 2 days), but it was akin to the In the Soop or Bon Voyage interviews when I guess what I was looking for was a bit more of the spontaneous V Live candidness or even the raw storytelling that comes out on Suchwita.Now, however, no matter what the world might say, BTS are BTS. They no longer need any other word to describe themselves.” SUGA recalled that their American television debut, in 2017, had been on the same stage for the same awards show (at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles). When the group won artist of the year, he couldn’t help thinking someone had made a mistake — or the world was playing a prank on him. Beyond the Story: 10-Year Record of BTS” is the first biography of the group, published in time for their 10-year anniversary. Written over three years, the book weaves in an oral history with group interviews by the biography’s author, Myeongseok Kang. Fans might be surprised at the shaggy underdog tale contained therein. Here are some major takeaways. BTS was born in a K-pop dormitory Published in celebration of BTS’s 10th Anniversary, stories that go beyond what you already know about BTS, including unreleased photos, QR codes of videos, and all album information.

BTS shares personal, behind-the-scenes stories of their journey so far through interviews and more than three years of in-depth coverage by Myeongseok Kang, who has written about K-pop and other Korean pop culture in various media.

Actually, I don’t think we were people who lived life thinking about so many things. In fact, if we had thought a lot, it would have been harder, and because we were just seven really simple people, maybe that was what made it possible.” If I didn’t love them enough before, I love them even more now. Their message. Their values. Their purpose. Icons. 💜 The book, which unwraps around interviews with the stars, is published in 23 different languages including Korean, English and Japanese. The trainees sign contracts and must live in a dormitory, where they eat, sleep and breathe K-pop until their debut. Jin describes the dorms as having “clothes strewn everywhere, cereal scattered on the floor” and plenty of dirty dishes, explaining that they worked 14-hours days and were simply too busy to live tidy lives.

In 2017, Big Hit Entertainment unveiled a new brand identity for BTS. With it came an additional name for BTS, “Beyond The Scene.” It didn’t catch on. But the name does officially indicate “the group’s mission to always aim for the horizon.” That language of the horizon is something Kang draws out twice in Chapter 6, “The World Of BTS”, which sits between Chapter 5, “A Flight That Never Lands,” and Chapter 7, “We Are.” The image of BTS cruising on a plane, following the horizon as the sky gently blends the golden tones of sunset, serves well as a metaphor for where they are now. 7.

The group’s seven members — RM, Jin, SUGA, j-hope, Jimin, V and Jungkook — have performed at the Grammys and the American Music Awards, and most of their music videos have over 1 billion views on YouTube.

Chapter three, four and five are called ‘Love, Hate, ARMY’, ‘Inside Out’ and ‘A Flight That Never Lands’, featuring clips from their 2015 breakout 2015 hit ‘I Need U’ and more. Positives, though. Despite me not being a big fan of the author, he does seem to know the subject well.

And then one day, I randomly watched the Boy In Luv music video on YouTube and my ARMY journey started right there and then. There's literally no kpop group or artist that I don't stan or enjoy listening to, but BTS will ALWAYS be number 1 for me. Their vast and diverse discography filled with songs about self-love, self-acceptance, self-discovery, friendships, relationships and so many other important issues along with their sincere lyrics, their outstanding performances and their humble, entertaining and genuine personalities are just SOME of the reasons why BTS will always have a special place in my heart.
