BTS is one of the biggest boy groups in South Korea. They have seven members: Jin, SUGA, j-hope, RM, Jimin, V, and Jung Kook. From practicing in a small studio in Seoul, South Korea, to performing in sold-out stadiums across the world, BTS isn’t just turning K-pop on its head, but the entire music industry.

The group wasn’t always so famous. They came from a small entertainment company, Big Hit Entertainment. Debuting had been mentally and physically challenging. Members wanted to call it quits many times. But as BTS’s fanbase, ARMY, grew, so did their fans’ love for them. BTS produced better music, put out more albums, and went on world tours. They won the Top Social Artist award at the 2017 Billboard Music Awards. They performed at the 2022 Grammy Awards. Learn more about BTS, from their music to their activism and more.
