BTS: “Our Biggest Goal for This Year Is to Win First on a Music Show”

BTS recently took part in a pictorial and interview with star and style magazine THE STAR.

The concept of the pictorial emphasized the manly yet innocent sides of each member.

During the interview following the photo shoot, the members of BTS talked about their passion for music and plans for this year. Leader Rap Monster expressed, “I’ve always been into ‘African-American music’ so I have never once been away from my earphones since my school days. Even when I studied, when I ate, before I went to sleep, I listened to music.” J-Hope shared, “I plan to reveal my very own songs or dance videos often through our blog this year.” Member Suga also said, “I will lock myself in the studio for a few hours a day to focus on making songs even if we have busy schedules.”

When asked about the group’s goal for the year of 2015, member V revealed, “I want to leave a mark in the music world. I would like BTS to become a turning point in the Korean music industry and hope to give rise to a sensation.” Rap Monster added on, “Winning first place on a music program is all of the members’ biggest wish. We work hard to create songs believing that with a good song, we will be able to win first when the time comes.”
