The Rundown: BTS | Dying For Drama

Annyeong!

This is a little segment I'm going to do from time to time since I could have used something like this when I was starting out in k-pop so I thought it would be cool for other people who are starting out to give them a helping hand. Basically what I'll be doing is giving a rundown of a specific group (male or female).


Today I'm going to be talking about my favourite group, BTS.

Name: BTS/Bulletproof Boyscouts/Bangtan Boys/방탄소년단
Debut: 2013 - No More Dream
Agency: BigHit Entertainement

Members:
V
Real name: Kim Tae Hyung
Age: 20 (30/12/1995)
Position: Vocalist
Fun Facts:  He opens him mouth subconciously.
                  His role model is his Dad
                  He has a habit of saying "Mom" or "It hurts" often, biting his nails and touching anything he finds cute.
                  His favourite animal is a lion.
                  His stage name V was given to him by Bang Si Hyuk PD but he was originally confused on how to pronounce it.
                  He always asks one of the other members to get him a glass of water before bed.

                  He's the Mum of the group.
                  He's the best cook.
                  He can't dance to save his life.
                  He likes Disney princesses and the colour pink (so his fans often nickname him Princess Jin).

Suga
Real name: Min Yoon Gi
Age: 23 (09/03/1993)

Fun Facts: His favourite thing to do is sleep.
                  He is very proud of his legs, saying that they are as nice as any Girl's Generation member.
                  He trained for such a long time, he threatened to leave BigHit if he was not able to debut soon.
                  He used to be an underground rapper before joining BigHit and has been shunned by a lot of the underground rapping community for it.
                  He is often known as the grandad of the group because he sleeps a lot and doesn't tend to move unless it's absolutely necessary.

Jungkook
Real name: Jeon Jeong Guk
Age: 18 (1/09/1997)
Position: Main Vocalist, Rapper, Main Dancer, Maknae

                  He's the youngest in the group.
                  He is nicknamed the "Golden Maknae".
                  He learned b-boying in 7th grade with some friends in a club.
                  When he was just 15, he want to Movement Lifestyle Studio in LA to work on his dancing.
                  He is very good at girl group dances and likes showing them off with Jimin and J-Hope.
                  
Jimin
Real name: Park Ji Min
Age: 20 (13/10/1995)
Position: Lead Vocalist, Main Dancer
Fun Facts: He is one of the smallest of the group and is often teased for it (even by Jungkook, who is younger than him yet taller).
                  He takes a lot of pride in his skincare and it has an important place in his day.
                  He has been dancing (namely popping) since the 8th grade.
                  He practises a lot. Jin once said in an interview that he feels like he has an addiction to practising and that he gets scared he may die practising.

                  He hates anything to do with ginger because it makes him throw up.

Position: Leader, Main Rapper
Fun Facts: He's a really bad dancer.
                  He openly supports gay rights.
                  He can't cook anything (and no one lets him cook because he could probably burn down the kitchen if he tried).
                  He speaks fluent English.
                  He is the messiest member of Bangtan.
                  Rap Mon is the only member of the original Bangtan Boys line-up.
