BTS ACHIEVEMENTS
BTS ARMY
BTS and A.R.M.Y are nearly mirrored versions of one another, and their relationship is influenced by one another. When BTS unlocks a new door, the symbol of A.R.M.Y. is depicted as a door from their viewpoint, waiting and welcoming BTS on the opposite door. “Adorable Representative M.C. for Youth” stands for “Army” and has a lot of meaning behind it. Because the army is associated with the military, body armour, and how those two things are always together, the fandom name means that fans will always be with BTS.
BTS is the magic shop for the army, as they confide in them and their songs and also find their peace and relief.
Two years after the group’s debut, Big Hit Entertainment announced the launching of BTS’ official fan lightstick. BTS’ official lightstick design was presented at the group’s fan café on March 10, 2015. This light stick has a translucent, spherical form that resembles the design of a globe, symbolising how the band has taken over the world with their expanding international success. All of the members also uploaded images of themselves posing with the light stick.
BTS has received numerous accolades, including Teen Choice Awards, MTV Video Music Awards, Soompy Awards, Radio Disney Music Awards, iHeartRadio Music Awards, American Music Awards, and others. Their single “Dynamite” alone smashed iTunes, Spotify, and YouTube records in 2020.
