Meet BTS (Bangtan Boys)

Bangtan Boys (방탄소년단)

or.. BTS (Bulletproof Boy Scouts)

I really like the name. Bulletproof Boy Scouts. Has a really good ring to it. 

Their official fanclub name is A.R.M.Y ( Adorable Representative M.C for Youth)

BTS is really unique as far as Kpop groups go. They have a more hip hop feel to them. And they're bulletproof. :P 

One thing that really stands out to me about BTS is their dancing. They're PERFECT. No one is ever off-beat, late with moves, early, anything. They're like dancing robots! I find it very amazing to watch them dance. Because their dances aren't really that easy, but they make it look so simple. If you want an example, here ya go!

My favorite song by them is "We Are Bulletproof pt 2". It sounds great and it has a great dance. Also, the lyrics to the song are actually really cool. But more on that in another blog. 

About:

BTS is a 7 member hip hop boy group developed by Big Hit Entertainment. They debuted on June 12, 2013 with "No More Dream". The group was suppose to debut in 2010, but I'm really glad they didn't. Why? Because they didn't debut because of members leaving. The only member that was in the original lineup that is still in the group is Rap Monster. 

But before their actual debut they released 2 cover songs.

Jin, Rap Monster, and Suga released "School of Tears" which was a cover of Kendrick Lamar's "Drank" It's a song about modern society and it's backwards ways. 

J-Hope, Jungkook, and Jimin made "Graduation Song"  which was a cover of Wiz Khalifa's "Young, Wild, and Free".

If you're wondering where "V" is.. They kept him a secret until the teasers were released so he wasn't featured in any of the songs. 

Also, BTS has their own reality show called "Rookie King: Bangtan"

Members:

Since they are a newer group, I do not have much on them. But what I do have, and my opinions, I will share with all of you. 

Jin

Birth name: Kim Seok Jin (김석진)

Stage name: Jin (진)

He was born on December 4, 1992. He is the oldest, but he is NOT the leader. He is a vocalist. Because you want to know apparently his blood type is O. His favorite color is pink. Respect for that, Jin. His favorite number is 4. His favorite animals are dogs. And he likes cooking. He's the perfect boyfriend, girls. Not many guys actually LIKE cooking. 

I like Jin. Can't say that I LOVE him, but I like him for the most part. He's cute and has a really good voice but when I watch him sing the only thing I can look at is his lips. Not because they're huge or deformed or anything. But I think it's just the way he shapes his lips while singing. It's very attention grabbing. lol 

He is the most composed, a tad bit serious, and very strict on himself. 

Suga

Birth name: Min Yoon Gi (민윤기)

Stage name: Suga (슈가)

He was born on March 9, 1993. He is a rapper. His blood type is O. His favorite color is white..... Does he like the white race? Because I'm white. Does that mean he likes me? SUGA LIKES ME!!! AHAHAHA! Ahem.. Anyways... His favorite number is 3. He is silly, playful, knows random stuff most people wouldn't, and he becomes a different person at work. 

I really like Suga, but they try to make Suga look so "hard" since, you know, he's in a hip hop group and because he's a rapper. But honestly I think he looks better not trying to be all big and bad.  He's actually freaking adorable. But when I see him in "We Are Bulletproof pt 2" I'm very disappointed because he actually looks kinda ugly in the music video. 

J-Hope

Birth name : Jung Ho Seok (정호석)

Stage name: J-Hope (제이홉)

He was born on February 18, 1994.

He is a rapper and dancer. His blood type is O. His favorite color is green. His favorite number is 7. He likes puppies. His favorite season is Spring. He's funny, playful, and outgoing. I'm not a huge fan of J-Hope. He's great, yes. And his dancing is amazing. He's an extremely talented dancer. But I'm just not too fond of him. And I really can't find much more to say about him. 

Rap Monster

Birth name: Kim Nam Joon (김남준)

Stage name: Rap Monster (랩몬스터)
He was born on September 12, 1994. I guess since he is the only member from the original lineup this makes him the leader. He is not the oldest, but Rap Monster IS THE LEADER of BTS. Alot of people get confused. He is the main rapper and he is BEAST. He gets his name for a reason. His blood type is A. His favorite color is black. His favorite number is 1. I guess that's because he's #1! Haha! He looks so serious, but he's actually quite playful and goofy sometimes, and is quite a good leader. He does speak fluent English. I do not know if he is from America or not. But he sure does sound like it. He's completely fluent. Not a trace of accent or anything. I personally LOVE Rap Monster. He's not my favorite. But I LOVE HIM! He's SO COOL!!! One thing about Rap Monster is that he use to be a HORRIBLE dancer. He even tried quitting the group because of the dancing because it was not his thing. But he's gotten pretty good and he hopes that one day he can be Rap Monster and Dance Monster. Another thing is that I don't like Rap Monsters eyes. Maybe it's because he always has them covered up and I'm not use to seeing them. But when I look at him without glasses, I just think that his eyes are way too small for his face. Maybe everyone else thinks so too and that's why he's always wearing shades. Idk. 


Jimin
<3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 

What? I'm not totally in love with Jimin or anything. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA I lie. I love Jimin. Ok.  So...
Birth name: Park Ji Min (박지민)
Stage name: Jimin (지민) 
He was born on October 13, 1995. He is actually a few months younger than me thats crazy. He is a vocalist and a dancer. His blood type is A. His favorite color is blue. His favorite number is 3. He doesn't think he's cute... He thinks he's chubby and he wants to lose weight. and for this someone should smack him back to reality.. Because he's totally cute. But on the other hand he does think he's charming and thinks he brings charm to the group. Honestly I don't care what Jimin thinks.. He has to know he's cute. And he knows he has nice abs too. Because even when other members aren't showing off his abs... He always is. Why is Jimin my favorite? Because he's really funny to watch, he's extremely cute, has an amazing voice, and his dancing... OMG HIS DANCING. I have a hard time watching anyone other than Jimin dancing because I love to watch him dance. Oddly enough I have a Korean friend that is a little darker than Jimin, but looks almost identical to him. Haha! Turns out me and Jimin aren't compatible though. Why? Because his favorite number is 3. And I HATE THE NUMBER 3. But oh well. :P 


V

Birth name: Kim Tae Hyung (김태형)
Stage name: V (뷔)
He was born on December 30, 1995. He's a vocalist. His blood type is AB. His favorite colors are black and white. His favorite number is 10. And his favorite season is Autumn.  I like V because he's adorable and and a great singer. But honestly I dont know if its because hes just not popular or because hes just mysterious.. But I really don't know much about him other than this... I can't find anything else... :/ I love you, V, but I don't know anything about you. 

UPDATE AS OF 2017 -- TAEHYUNG IS AND WILL FOREVER BE MY BIAS! 


Jungkook

Birth name: Jeon Jeong Guk (전정국)
Stage name: Jungkook (정국)
He was born on September 1, 1997. He is a vocalist, rapper, and dancer. He does everything. He's also the maknae. The youngest member. His blood type A. His favorite color is red. His favorite number is 1. He likes painting. Nice. Apparently he spaces out alot. lol. That's cute. He thinks he's chubby.. What's up with them thinking they're chubby?? He is a bit clueless and lost at times. Haha. And he really looks up to Jin.  With Jin being the oldest I can see how he would look up to him.
