Behind the global stardom of K-pop phenomenon Bangtan Sonyeondan is not only remarkable dancing and singing talent, but the genuine music in the bandmates' own words to deliver a message to fans.

In creating its first single album, “2 Cool 4 Skool,” that started the band's journey on June 13, 2013, the bandmates were involved in composing and writing the lyrics based on the principle that hip-hop musicians should speak through their music.

In the debut lead track “No More Dream,” the band from the outset talked about the need to break free from society’s restrictions to achieve one's own dreams and not someone else’s.

The following album, the band's first EP “O!RUL8,2?,” also delivered the message of looking for one's own happiness and life before it’s too late.

Bangtan Sonyeondan continued to expose society for forcing students’ misfortunes by turning them into "studying machines" without giving them time to actually think about their future.

Bangtan Sonyeondan wrapped up its teen-focused series with its second mini album, “Skool Luv Affair,” singing about teenage love.

The album that actually won Bangtan Sonyeondan notice from the public was its third EP, “The Most Beautiful Moment in Life,” with lead track “I Need U,” released in 2015.

In the first part of “The Most Beautiful Moment in Life” series, Bangtan Sonyeondan shows solidarity with those in their 20s simultaneously facing the most fruitful and most insecure time of their lives.

If previous efforts had mostly been produced by the trio of RM, Suga and J-Hope, this album mostly came thanks to Jin, Jimin, V and Jungkook’s production.

With the following “The Most Beautiful Moment in Life, Pt. 2,” BTS made its first entry into the Billboard 200 chart.

A book exploring K-pop megastar Bangtan Sonyeondan 10-year career will be released next month to commemorate its 10th debut anniversary, the group's agency said Thursday.

"Beyond the Story: 10-year Record of BTS" is set for release on July 9 to coincide with "Army day," which celebrates the anniversary of the formation of the group's loyal fan base Army, according to Big Hit Music.

The book is mainly composed of interviews with the band while demonstrating "their efforts, hardship, and growth starting from the band's first gathering to becoming the 21st century pop icons," the agency said in a statement.

The book will be published in 23 languages, including Korean, English and Japanese, it added.

The septet is holding the BTS 10th Anniversary Festa for the next two weeks to commemorate the anniversary, which fell on Tuesday, jointly with the Seoul metropolitan government, in various places in the capital.
