Blog 4: Music

Hello everyone, today I will tell you about my favorite musical group.

My favorite group is BTS (Bangtan), which is a South Korean band composed of 7 members who debuted on June 13, 2013. Bangtan doesn't have an established music style, they are versatile artists who have worked with a mix of genres and styles like hip hop, R&B and EDM throughout their musical career.

They are my favorite artists because they are simply wonderful and talented people, they compose and write their songs which mostly speak about mental health issues, self-love, consumerism, among others, and in 7 years have helped many ARMY (fandom) throughout the world, have been able to break the language barrier and xenophobia paving the way for other Korean groups looking to enter the international market.

My favorite albums are Dark&wild, Love Yourself: tear and Map of the soul: 7, the latter is their most personal album as it tells the story of the 7 members and was released for its 7th anniversary.

My favorite genre is BTS, I don't like to be recognized as "kpop" because it's the term used for an idol manufacturing industry whose purpose is to sell without delivering a message, BTS get involved in their music, they write, compose and produce their albums, deliver a beautiful message, create their own styles and that's why the genre is bts. (In addition to them I can hear other genres like hip hop, trap, R&B)
