BTS 10th Anniversary: It has been a decade since the superband BTS made its debut and set on a mission to make every individual fall in love with their music and philosophies in life. The members - BTS V aka Kim Taehyung, Jungkook, RM, Jimin, Suga, Jin, and Jhope made their debut on June 13, 2013, and now, after 10 long years, they are easily the most popular names in the world because of their massive popularity and their fans aka BTS ARMY. The social media has been flooded with memories of their journey as fans share their most favorite parts of BTS' career. In gratitude, BTS members have also shared unseen photos and videos and wrote letters of thanks to the fans.
Jin, who is currently serving in the military, shared a picture on Instagram and wrote 'ARMY' with a heart. He also shared a heartfelt letter on Weverse, expressing his gratitude on completing 10 years as a member of BTS. Kim Seokjin wrote, "I'll be with you on the 11th anniversary." Jin said, "Our ARMY, thanks to you we are able to have our 10th anniversary. There's a saying that mountains and rivers change in 10 years but I am amazed by how BTS and ARMY's love hasn't changed. I also definitely want to give you some type of 10th-anniversary content but... I just have a sad heart because I am not able to be with you all. Before enlisting, I should have filmed more content. I'm not sure how to deliver this sorry heart."
"I'm aware that the members who are felt will work hard to proceed with the 10th year anniversary content but... as I have 365 days, a year left of the military, as soon as I am done with my service, I won't go home but go to the company and meet you all through weverse live."
"Of course, it's early so I can stay home and come back, but I won't make any plans and I'll be with you on the 11th anniversary. I'm so happy to say this at least.. haha.. Thank you so much for being with us for our 10th anniversary and i hope you stay with us until our bodies can perform on stage."
BTS V aka Kim Taehyung loaded his Instagram stories with many unseen videos of the members including their dance practice videos or goofing around with Jungkook and Jimin or just eating together. As soon as he dropped the videos, fans got emotional. BTS V also wrote, "It's already been 10 years since we debuted.. Thank you for being healthy for our members for 10 years and for making good memories together, thank you so much ARMYs and thanks to you, we're doing our best." Check out the posts here-
On the other hand, BTS leader RM aka Kim Namjoon and singer Jimin shared heartfelt posts on Weverse to thank their fans for the support and love they have been bestowed with all these years.
RM wrote, "It’s a really special thing to be enchanted by certain words. Until a noun becomes a pronoun; when BTS becomes BTS and when ARMY becomes ARMY…There was a lot of rain and wind, and also love. We built our own world that no one could possibly understand. Thanks to the ARMYs and so many people who helped us, I was able to experience something special that I won’t be able to experience again. Looking back, I became used to kicking open the door and leaving after being absorbed in reminiscing briefly. Even now, I’m still imagining our part 2. It feels like it can be anything."
Jimin said, "I’ve told you ARMYs a few times already, it’s not easy to support and love someone and give them strength for no particular reason,” the translated message reads, according to AllKpop.com. “That is why I am able to understand how happy we are. You, who made us feel this way, should feel overflowing happiness and receive love. You must. Understand? ARMY, whom I am always thankful to and love, Let’s be happy for a long long time."
BTS rapper Jhope is currently serving in the military but he took out time to express his gratitude to the fans. He wrote, "ARMYs, you’re all doing well, right?? About now, I’m probably in an extremely nervous state with my military discipline!! In a sort of ‘scheduled text message’ vibe… To comfort all of you going through this Hobi-less time, I will send my greetings through letters on special days like this, even though it’s short!!"
BTS Suga aka Min Yoongi took to Instagram and said, "I appreciate and love you all" He shared a photo of all the members bowing down to the fans on stage to show gratitude.
