BTS ARMY across the world is celebrating as the popular K-pop group turns 10 on June 13.
The members of the boy band have also shared special wishes for their loyal fans.
BTS leader RM penned a heartfelt letter on their fan community Weverse which read, ‘It’s a really special thing to be enchanted by certain words. Until a noun becomes a pronoun; when BTS becomes BTS and when ARMY becomes ARMY. There was a lot of rain and wind, and also love. We built our own world that no one could possibly understand.’
‘Thanks to the ARMYs and so many people who helped us, I was able to experience something special that I won’t be able to experience again. Looking back, I became used to kicking open the door and leaving after being absorbed in reminiscing briefly. Even now, I’m still imagining our part 2. It feels like it can be anything,’ RM added.
Jimin also expressed his gratitude towards his fans. He wrote, ‘I’ve told you ARMYs a few times already, it’s not easy to support and love someone and give them strength for no particular reason. That is why I am able to understand how happy we are. You, who made us feel this way, should feel overflowing happiness and receive love. You must. Understand? ARMY, whom I am always thankful to and love, Let’s be happy for a long long time.’
V shared a series of behind-the-scenes and unseen visuals of the BTS members on social media. These sum up their 10-year-long musical journey.
It read, ‘It's already the 10th anniversary since we’ve debuted. For 10 years, our members thank you for being healthy and making good memories together ARMYs thank you so much and thanks to you, we’re able to do this while gaining strength!’
J-Hope, who was the latest one to join the military, surprised fans with a special note.
He shared, ‘ARMYs, you’re all doing well, right?? About now, I’m probably in an extremely nervous state with my military discipline!! In a sort of ‘scheduled text message’ vibeâ€æ To comfort all of you going through this Hobi-less time, I will send my greetings through letters on special days like this, even though it’s short!’
BTS consists of RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V and Jungkook.
