On July 9th, 2013 ARMY was established as BTS' official fandom. Every year though, when BTS celebrates their debut anniversary on June 13th, there is always a gift for ARMYs from BTS. How many years have you been with these seven great men? Whatever it is, hopefully, we will get more solid and fabulous with them.
When I first heard the word ARMY, my mind immediately went to the military and body armor, two things that cannot be separated. Just like us, ARMY, and BTS will always be together. Guys, you know that every year there are surprises from the members, right? Well, in this blog, I want to introduce you to the songs that BTS has given to us, ARMY, as gifts every year that is released when celebrating their debut with ARMY.
For BTS’ first anniversary in 2014, they released “So 4 More” as a video to celebrate their debut. The video starts with the members in a recording studio and RM talking about how the rap line have written their thoughts and feelings into the song. “Even when a year passes, and even when another year comes” their feelings of wanting to be better at what they do will continue. The video is on BANGTANTV and the song is on SoundCloud So 4 More. Lyrics can be found on Doolset.
In 2015, we were given a song called "We Are Bulletproof Part. 1." The music of this song is enough to make a scene, once you listen to this song you will become addicted, hehe :D. All the members have created things that are more interesting and pleasant for us to hear. In RM's part, there was the lyric, "history in the making" and now they have indeed made history. Their achievements are everywhere. I’m waiting for this song to be on Spotify :(. Here's the SoundCloud link though if you want to hear it again We Are Bulletproof Pt. 1
We were surprised by the song "I Know" in 2016 performed by our leader RM and maknae Jung Kook at FESTA as the opening song. This song really touches my ears because of its calming melody and smooth lyrics. I really like the lyrics "Know you love me, girl, so that I love you" I will again give the SoundCloud link to this song I Know - RM & Jung Kook. Let's listen to it again and you too will feel at peace and full of admiration.
In 2017, there was “4 O'Clock” dedicated to us, sung by V and RM, written and self-produced by themselves. This song is in my lullaby playlist, hehe. This one lyric "Yes, we live and die at the same time" really touched my little heart. They always handle the songs well and never disappoint, always managing to make us cry (especially me, I'm such a crybaby). Come on, stream “4 O’Clock” by clicking this link - 4 O'Clock - RM & V
It was the Rap line's turn to present us with a rap song with the title, "Ddaeng" in 2018. Hey, who's listening to this song and can only sing along with the "Ddaeng" part? Hahaha, it's me. They wrote, composed, and produced this song themselves. “Ddaeng” is at once addictive and thought-provoking, making you want to meet, read lyrics and watch the video at the same time. Here, let’s watch “Ddaeng” again! Ddaeng - RM, SUGA, & j-hope
We were surprised by a song called "Tonight (이 밤)" by Jin in June 2019. This song is a ballad genre, written by Slow Rabbit, Jin, Hiss Noise, and RM. When releasing this song, Jin said that it was written when thinking about his pets. This song is also in my sleep playlist hehe. Jin's voice really makes my heart calm and peaceful. Here’s its link Tonight - Jin
In 2020, Jung Kook again presented us with a song called "Still With You." This song was written by Jung Kook along with Pdogg, and produced by the two of them as well. I really like this lyric, "Nuneul bogo marharraeyo bogo sipeoss-eoyo" which means according to Doolset’s blog, "I'll look into your eyes and tell you, I've missed you". The melody is also really cool. I think this song represents someone who is longing for someone. To hear Jung Kook's voice so that you can feel more deeply, you can click this link. Still With You - Jung Kook
Our leader again brought a song called "Bicycle" as a gift for us. RM released this song in 2021 and made it a part of Festa. This song was written and produced by RM and John Eun. It is one of my favorite comfort songs. RM also wrote a letter when he released this song. “If you’re sad, let’s ride a bicycle!” Bicycle - RM
Then this year, in 2022, Jungkook released a song for ARMY entitled "My You." Jung Kook wrote and produced this song along with Hiss Noise. Jung Kook's heavenly voice really brought so much comfort to me. He wrote his feelings for us in this song. I love these two lyrics, “all this time is precious due to you” and “I will try to shine brighter than now” - Jung Kook loves us very much. Let’s just listen to the song My You - Jung Kook
Those are the songs that BTS gave to ARMY. Happy birthday, BTS! Happy birthday, ARMY! Let's be happy together, and see each other again soon!
