I was reminded of the Dollars when I entered ARMY. It's pretty funny to compare a fanbase to a gang, but like the Dollars, we're colourless and numerous, so maybe it's an effective simile?

Last night, ARMY worked together to get the song "Blood Sweat & Tears" to 30 million views and beat a former record. The comments were all things like "American ARMY signing out at 1 am" and people would respond like "Asian ARMY here! We're taking over, thanks for your hard work" or "Leave it to the European ARMY, we just woke up", or "It's evening in Australia, we're good for a few more hours."

Anyway, it reminded me of how the Dollars operated from remote places in Ikebukuro and all worked together for a smooth, efficient workforce! So here's a proper post:

BTS (Bangtan Boys, Bulletproof Boys) are a 7-member k-pop group that debuted in 2013. They originated from a small company but rose to major international fame through their unique lyrics and dances. Their fanbase is called ARMY.

Here are 3 songs that I think everyone will enjoy!

Song #1: Dope

Lately I've been trying a thing with strangers where we exchange song recommendations, and every person so far has sent me a fascinating song that I would never have found otherwise. It's great because for 5 minutes, we can both listen to amazing music. Some of the songs were so good that I went on to learn more about the singer. That's what happened with BTS - a stranger sent me Dope a month ago and I fell in love.

So comment below with some of your band/song recommendations! I'll check all of them out. You never know if you like it until you try it.
