Book excerpt: Jin, Suga, J-Hope, RM, Jimin, V and Jungkook, seven good-looking boys who can dance and sing, are tearing up the global music charts. Nothing fresh? Again, think. BTS, which rose to fame in 2013 in their native South Korea and sings almost entirely in Korean, is now an international sensation. K-pop has steadily garnered a huge following among social-media-savvy teen girls over the last three years. And BTS are leading the advance with their clean-cut good looks, fabulously choreographed and perfectly executed dance moves, and catchy blend of pop, soft hip hop and r&b. They were recently profiled in US Vogue, the first K-pop band to receive such an honor; they won the 2017 Top Social Artist Billboard Music Award, beating Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande and Selena Gomez; they were listed on Twitter in March 2016 by Forbes as the most retweeted artist, and their fanbase has ballooned since then; they were named in Time magazine's "Top 25 Most Influential People on the Internet 2017;" and they've recently embarked on a sold-out tour across the globe. Extensively researched, and written in an upbeat and accessible style, this book interweaves the success stories of each of the boys with how the band got together, while documenting their amazing rise to fame in Southeast Asia, and then the world.
