Bts : Song by Song: Chapter One

With their debut on Korean television on June 13, 2013, BTS announced that they were a group worth following. Exploring themes of disenfranchised youth, the power of self-love, and the struggle for inspiration, they have built a song library full of inspiring songs that have touched the hearts of their fandom, ARMY, worldwide. But the path from their hardscrabble days as a new band on the Kpop scene to accomplished musicians who sell out stadiums was a bumpy one filled with uncertainties. Their hopes, dreams, and fears as the seven members grew up together and became a family are reflected in their song lyrics and performances, from the School era right up to the release of their chart-topping hit “Butter.” As the band turns their career to Chapter Two—a time to focus on solo activities and fulfilling their military service obligations—it’s the perfect moment to take a deep dive into their Chapter One discography. Explore every song from “No More Dream” through to “Permission to Dance” and discover why even their deepest of album cuts is a treasure worth savoring.
