Famous BTS Quotes

“It's difficult to put a finger on exactly how, no matter what the situation, BTS managed to do their work, while sending their intense love to ARMY and demonstrating how trustworthy they were. Maybe it was because BTS and ARMY had always gone through everything together, or perhaps it was the members' inborn nature, or because they'd naturally communicated and shared their emotions with their fans from the very beginning.”

“FAKE LOVE" is not, as the title would suggest, about fake, or false, love. As the opening lyrics convey, the song is about the intentions and concerns of a person hiding their pain before the one they love, trying to show them only the best of themselves. On the surface, these lyrics might appear to tell a universal story of the pain of love, but they also represent the BTS members' minds at the time, standing before ARMY.”

“In LOVE YOURSELF (Tear's first song, "Intro: Singularity," the final lyrics go, "Tell me / Even if the pain was fake / What should I have done," while the next song, "FAKE LOVE," opens with, "For you I could pretend like I was happy when I was sad." These lyrics are saying that, no matter what pain the person is going through, they can show a happy face in front of the one they love. Then, in the following song, "The Truth Untold" (Feat. Steve Aoki), the lyrics go, "I'm afraid / I feel small / I'm so afraid / Will you end up leaving me as well / I put on a mask and go to you again." These lyrics tell the story of someone who is afraid that the one why love will turn away if they see their true face, and so, they wear a mask.”

“It was really hard to respect the fact that we were all different people. I used to be very extreme and trapped in a black-and-white mindset. My immature mind would think, "Why is he thinking that way? Shouldn't a normal human being think this way?" And eventually I went beyond thinking, 'That guy is different from me,' to accepting, 'That person is just being themselves.' It did take a bit of time.”

“Dewey Finn (played by Jack Black), the main character in the movie School of Rock, is a nameless musician under false pretenses gets a job at an elementary school in place of a friend who is a licensed teacher. When he realizes how talented the students are, he tries to put them together into a rock band. The students, however, know nothing of rock music, and Dewey ends up teaching them the history of rock-and-roll during class instead of the usual curriculum.”

“For RM and the others, it was inevitable that they would seek out a reason for doing what they did. RM adds, I looked up and studied so much about insults and hurts, and I got even more passionate. "Oh, I really have to do better." Do what better, I wasn't sure, but I'd already made my debut, and already got dissed, so I wanted to somehow do something that was within my scope, and really empty myself out.”

“It was the perfect opportunity for RM to clarify his own thoughts as he struggled between his identities as a hip-hop artist and an idol. —It was extremely important to me, having unloaded something like that. The hurt was still there, but [the interview] comforted my heart in some ways...Bad things have to happen for there to be good things. And I thought at the time, "Oh, something like that happened, but thanks to that, people are coming to reach out to us.”
