POST 4 

Hello everyone, I'm glad you're here.

Today I want to talk about a person I would like to meet, although it is actually a musical group 😂😂

Since 2018, I have listened to them, which has made them become an important part of my days. I am referring to the South Korean band, BTS (whose name means Behind the scene), the group is made up of 7 members from different parts of South Korea: Kim Namjoon (RM), Kim Seokjin, Min Yoongi (Suga), Jung Hoseok (J-Hope), Park Jimin, Kim Taehyung (V), and Jeon Jungkook.

The music of this group is a mixture of Pop, R&B and Hip-Hop, being composed by themselves. They are divided according to their abilities, the rap part is made up of: Min Yoongi, Jung Hoseok and Kim Namjoon (who in turn is the leader of the group), on the other hand, there is the vocal line composed by: Kim Seokjin, Park Jimin, Kim Taehyung, and Jeon Jungkook, and lastly, there's the dance line: Jung Hoseok, Park Jimin, and Jeon Jungkook.

Although they debuted in 2013, I feel like I've known them all my life, they are happy, funny and always wanting to give more on stage for their fans. I think that something I admire about them is the ability to express their feelings through the lyrics of their songs, more than once they helped me to understand my own thoughts and, sometimes, to reconcile with them 💖

Regarding their achievements, I would not know how to list them, they were the first Korean act to perform and receive a Grammy nomination, they have been at number 1 on the Billboard's list, they have the Guinness record for the fastest music video to reach 100 million views, as well as filling Wembley Stadium, the stadium where Queen performed when the legendary Live Aid was held in 1985.

Personally, BTS has been a fundamental part in my process as a designer artist, I have drawn references from their music videos, which are spectacular, I have felt accompanied at dawn while I work on my homework for the university and, because of them, I have opened up to listen to new music groups appearing in the Kpop industry.

Thank you very much for reading, see you next time 💫
