BTS came together in 2013 and took their name from the Korean expression Bangtan Sonyeondan, which translates to Bulletproof Boy Scouts. In 2017, they announced, for English speakers, their acronym would be changing to stand for "Beyond the Scene."

BigHit Entertainment, their entertainment agency, told Korean media the new branding "symbolizes youth who don't settle for their current reality and instead open the door and go forward to achieve growth," according to Billboard.If you haven't heard of BTS yet, it's a prime time to get familiar—because the seven-member South Korean boy band has sky rocketed to the top of the music world since their debut in 2013.
