When did BTS debut?

BTS began its formation in 2010 after  Big Hit Entertainment CEO Bang si-hyuk met with group leader RM and was impressed with his rapping. BTS was originally supposed to be a  hip hop group, but between their initial formation and their debut, Bang Si-hyuk decided that the contemporary youth needed instead “a hero who can lend them a shoulder to lean on, even without speaking a single word”. The group was meant to debut in 2011 and featured on several tracks by artists. The lineup was then finalized with jin, Suga, J-Hope, RM, Jimin, V, and Jungkook in 2012 when Jin, the oldest member of the group, was twenty years old. Six months prior to their debut, they began to gain attention for their presence on various social media websites, as well as song covers on Youtube and Soundcloud.

On June 12, 2013, BTS released their debut single album 2 cool 4 Skool, the first installment of their “school trilogy” series, simultaneously with its lead single No More Dream, which peaked at number 124 in Korea before quickly falling off the charts. While the album peaked at number five in South Korea and eventually sold over 145,000 copies, it was not a major hit, selling only 24,000 copies in 2013. Their subsequent single “We Are Bulletproof Pt. 2” failed to chart.

In 2 Cool 4 Skool, BTS employed an old-school hip-hop sound with scratches from the 1980s–90s and excessively fierce visuals. BTS have stated that from their inception, they were convinced that telling their story was the only way for the younger generation to relate to their music. The lyrics of the album primarily reflected on the misunderstanding and prejudice towards them, criticism of the society that diminishes their dreams, and their anxiety and determination towards their future.

The single album’s release was followed by several appearances on Korean music shows. Despite being unpolished, critics say these early live performances demonstrated BTS’ potential with their intense and charismatic stage presence

 In September 2013, BTS released the second part to their “school trilogy,” the extended play O!RUL8,2?, along with its single “N.O,” which peaked at number 92 in Korea. Later in the same year, they were recognized as Best New Artist at South Korea’s Melon Music Awards, their first major award.

The song got the group their first win SBS MTV’s ‘The Show’, and made many people shocked by the song.

After this BTS started getting break down the records of music through their songs they didn’t stop, 2018 they released IDOL Love Yourself: ANSWER this is a history-making piece.
