Most of the time, we humans are self- oriented and we focus on supplying our own needs. So we follow a livelihood.  But in the present world, few people attempt to give their best to the world. Bangtan sonyeondon or BTS is  a boy band that gives the  world inspiration, comfort, strength beyond  piling up success and victory using their dancing,  singing and performing talents. And also today they are a main part of the South Korean economy. 

They are a huge inspiration to the modern youth to achieve their dreams despite their hard beginning.  Rather than being mere artists, they act as motivational workers, volunteers, ambassadors, social workers, messengers of love etc. There are seven members in bangtan boys.  They are Kim Namjoon, Kim Taehyung, Park Jimin, Jeon Jungkook, Min Yoongi, Kim Seokjin, Jung Hoesok.They debuted in 2013 with seven different members with different talents. Their agency was founded by their chairman Bang Si Hyuk.

At the beginning they started from a dorm with menial facilities. They used social media platforms like YouTube to create and upload their own content and dance practice videos. At the beginning they invited the people for the free concerts across the streets. They started from composing the song “no more dreams", criticising the social and cultural pressure faced by the teens from all over the world.

The most specific feature of them is their content. Most of the songs in the world, performances are focused on arousing the feelings, passions of the people. These songs could arouse the Romantic feelings and urges of the youth and make them distracted from the reality. But comparatively to them, BTS songs are focused on personal growth, success, the value of hard work, equality, humanity, human emotions, human psychology, reality of life etc.

The songs like dope, not today,  Tomorrow, moving on, wings, never mind, paradise,  pied piper, on, so what, silver spoon conveys about the importance of hard work and success.  Solo songs like Moonchild, Seoul by Kim Namjoon, August D, Daechithwa, give it to Me by Min Yoongi and airplane by Jung Hoesok are about personal growth and personal success.

And songs Magic shop, Anpanman,  pied piper, make it right, love yourself,  young forever, life goes on,  stay alive, universe are composed with the intention of giving spiritual and mental healing, comfort , hope and strength to the struggling humans so as not to give up and believe in humanity. Actually in their songs, they are telling what every human wants to hear.          All these lyrics in their songs are so full of wisdom and have a deep meaning. The songs like bulletproof, yet to come, run bts, idol, mic drop, airplane pt. 2, blood sweat and tears, black swan talks about the hard journey they can throughout these 9 or 10 years.
