The first Idol group that attracted me: BTS

BTS

BTS is a KPOP idol boy group that debuted in South Korea in June 2013. Their debut in Japan was in June 2014. At the time of their debut, they were told that they would "never be famous." They were rare as a KPOP group to mainly release hip-hop. They were said to be "unsuccessful" because they were rappers dancing and acting as idols. 

Even though they had won some rookie awards, it took them about two years to get to number one on the music shows that were broadcast daily on various stations in Korea. It was in May 2015 that they got their first number one hit with "I NEED U". After that, all of the songs they released reached number one, and they won the grand prize at the year-end awards ceremony in 2016, solidifying their popularity.

As I described in blog #3, I got hooked on KPOP after watching BTS's "Blood Sweat &Tears" music video. At the same time, I fell in love with BTS. Other than that, I also like the song "Mic Drop".　BTS has 7 members with 7 different colors and they are all very attractive. My favorite member of BTS is Suga. I really like the lyrics he writes and his voice. 

I went to BTS's first performance at Tokyo Dome in November 2018. I remember their voice echoed in the spacious venue and their singing and dancing were amazing and touched my heart.
