2. Their songs have very catchy English lyrics for you to shout if you don't speak Korean.
3. Their choreography is 🔥DOPE🔥.
4. Even the other K-pop groups can be caught showing off some BTS moves.
Here's GOT7, another very popular band, dancing to BTS's "I Need U."
5. Their fanbase, called A.R.M.Y., is worldwide and growing stronger by the day.
6. According to Forbes, in March (2016) they were re-tweeted MORE THAN KANYE AND JUSTIN BIEBER.
7. And BTS is the second K-pop act to land on the Billboard 200 twice in a row.
G-Dragon was the first!
8. They friggin' LOVE their fans and treat them all like baby angels.
This song was written as a thank you to their fans for their three year anniversary, for sticking with them and loving them all that time.
9. They're almost always doing something funny.
10. Especially on social media. Here's a time Suga posted this photo saying it was "taken without his permission."
...Yet Jimin posted a photo showing he is CLEARLY posing for V.
And then there's JIN's photo of Jimin taking a photo of V taking a photo of Suga.
And the final masterpiece; J-Hope taking a photo of Jin taking a photo of Jimin taking a photo of V who very obviously got permission to take a photo of Suga.
11. They know how to give the people exactly what they want.
12. Even if it's just a piece of confetti.
13. ...or a peek at the casual abs situation.
14. They work incredibly hard.
15. And they don't take anything for granted.
16. Every single performance they give is amazing.
17. But they remain so, so humble.
18. Well, mostly...
19. They're just a big, dorky family.
20. They take care of each other.
21. But they also relentlessly tease each other.
Like the time they all decided to copy Rap Monster's selfie and number them 2-7:
22. They are the best at awards shows.
23. Because they're not afraid of looking like weirdos.
(Ft. EXO looking both confused and impressed.)
24. Seriously, sometimes it's hard to distinguish actual choreography from them just messing around.
25. And at the end of the day, they truly love each other and it's heartwarming and beautiful and good.
26. Come on, just look at them. Are you a BTS fan yet?
