South Korea has repeatedly surprised the world with its musical talents. Now this is a group bts, working 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 band was formed in 2010, it was the performance at a music show in June 2013 that 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 the stage, but also the fact that they invented all this themselves. Before the 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, it is necessary to work long and hard on the composition of the team, the quality of the musical material, and its performance. And the producers did a 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, the improbability of the choreography was presented in the trailer for ten tracks of the album.
The team began to win fans outside the country in 2015, performing in Japan. By the end of 2016, the musicians have already released three albums and dozens of videos. What distinguishes them is 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 Anyana, and never thought that fame awaited 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 skills and dancing skills. Success for Jin Kim Seokjin is an opportunity to work on himself more and more. The guy knows how to move forward. And despite the excellent external data, he wants to lose weight. And it's 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 fluent Chinese and English and is a good driver because he has a driver's license. His best friend in the group is V.
Average height - 176 cm, with a weight of 54 kg, Suga Yoongi has a pale face, for which he was nicknamed Sugar. Yes, he wears white clothes. But for him, life is a search for suitable rhymes, rhythms. He composes all the time when he's not in the gym. He also gives his all to training. But he fills small respite with lazy doing nothing 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 got the nickname daddy.
Suga has a sharp tongue that Jimin often gets caught on. A friend likes to play a joke, make fun. When the guy gets excited, he switches to the dialect of Daegu, where he was born in March 1993.
The group's dancer and rapper, Jay Hope, Jung Hongseok is from Gwangju. He is an athletic guy, but despite his weight of 65 kg with a height of 177 cm, he does not like to exercise. Member is distinguished by accuracy. After rehearsals or training, you don’t have to clean up after him - in this he is an example to follow.
Of the musicians, Jay is especially familiar with Jelo and Ange from the group V. A. R. The love for dancing is especially inherent in the boy - he can pick up movements for any track. Before joining the team, he was a member of the street dance group, auditioned at IUP. Now he is a dance choreographer in BTS, and in free time busy assembling Lego, which he spends a lot of money on. Of the devices, he chooses only Apple.
Fans need to know what's for a rapper main feature beautiful girl must have long hair and mind. Those who do not know how to think, reason, he bypasses. After all, Jay graduated from the university, and believes that the experience of participating in the group will be useful to him in the future.
The group's vocalist Park Jimin is fine without a pseudonym. He just wasn't picked. Maybe there was not enough time for this, since Jimin joined the team a year before the debut. He was invited to the group right on the street. He dances well and has a great sense of rhythm. He wants to dance with EXO's Kai.
But the guy has no craving for writing, although there were attempts. But friends advised him not to write songs, otherwise his compositions would simply lull the audience. Jimin's good quality is his ability to make friends. No wonder both Suga and V like 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, New Zealand. He can communicate perfectly in the languages spoken in these countries. The constant desire to replenish their knowledge, improve the language is typical for Rap Monster.
He takes the position of a black-wearing rapper in the group. And how hard it was for him at first to master the dance moves! Basketball was much closer to his soul. But over time, thanks to constant training, the choreography succumbed to him.
The youngest member of BTS, Jungkook Maknae, born in 1997, started making music professionally at the age of 13. The versatility of his position in the team is surprising - a dancer, vocalist, rapper. Suga, Hongseok take care of Jungkook like a little brother.
Maknae's favorite pastime is drawing, so his room is always a mess. And he loves bright, contrasting colors - red, yin-yang.
Wee Kim Taehyung is friends with all members of the boy band, although at first they treated him with caution, did not understand his quirks. But soon the unusual behavior of the guy began to appeal to many. V is from a large family in which the main role belongs to the father. It was him that 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 for the fact that once at the zoo a chimpanzee spat at him.
The group was conceived as a duet consisting of Rap Monster and Iron. But over the course of three years before the debut, the plan was revised, and the BTS group was formed - Bulletproof Boy Scouts - which means Bulletproof. If at first it made the guys laugh, now the name has become familiar, and there is no need for another.
The group 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 Jay Hope joins them for writing 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 leave the chosen path, to follow the dream. And the choreography for this composition was put by Jay Hope along with the former member of the team Donghyuk.
The most popular members of the group are Jimin and V, who have the most fanboys.
Interestingly, the members are 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 getting bigger day by 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.
The latest clip of Young Forever in the iTunes chat took the sixth position in 2016. The composition Fire was highly appreciated by four million listeners, and it is in the top twenty of the best-selling songs.
2015 was a fruitful year for the band for music awards, including the World Rookie Award, presented annually in Monte Carlo.
A lot of BTS fans note that their tracks mix different styles, but it's done with great taste. Particularly pronounced style diversity in the song I Need U. No wonder the band's albums are sold out instantly. So it was, for example, with the album Run, which occupies the thirteenth line 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 Vi has a brother and a sister.
According to polls of journalists, the musicians unanimously named the lion as their favorite animal.
Dreaming in the future, ten years from now, South Korean members will remain on the crest of fame, continue to make music, be cool and famous. And J-Hope believes that he will become one of the unique in the Banqtan group.
