BTS are a k-pop boy band from South Korea – the name is an acronym for the Korean phrase Bangtan Sonyeondan which translates to "Bulletproof Boy Scouts".
However, they are also known as Bangtan Boys and have adapted their BTS name to also stand for "Beyond The Scene".
The group formed in 2010 before signing with Big Hit Entertainment in 2013. While releasing music through Universal Music, they have released eight studio albums throughout their career, the most recent being "Be," which was released back in 2020.
Their first English-language single, "Dynamite," was released that same year and broke the YouTube record for the most viewed premiere.
BTS have become a global phenomenon over the past couple of years and are considered the biggest boyband in the world, with a net worth of $50 million.
The South Korean band is the best-selling artist in the country's history and also became the fastest group since The Beatles to earn four US number one albums, doing so in less than two years.
The popular boyband broke the record of the most Youtube views in 24 hours back in August, with their "Dynamite" video reaching 101.1 million views in just a day.
In the same month, the group made their MTV Video Music Awards debut with the first live performance of "Dynamite" and won four awards: best group, best choreography, best pop video, and best K-pop.
Earlier this year it was revealed that BTS was named the top Global Recording Artist of the Year for 2020 by the IFPI.
On March 4, 2021, it was also revealed that BTS became the first non-English act to be named the top Global Recording Artist of the Year of 2020.
