“I think electricity will create a new world. I feel like the world will change a lot with electricity, and I wonder how it will change, it’s scary, and it’s going to be fun. I think there are so many things to think about when it comes to electric cars.”

I put ‘hope’ in my name to be a hopeful existence in the group.

I actually don’t preoccupy myself with ‘I’m going to do this kind of rap in this kind of genre’ kind of thinking when I work.

I started dancing first, but felt I could also tell my story through my music.

I feel we have achieved the goals that we set out to achieve.

We set out with nothing but music as our dream, but we didn’t know where we were going, whether we were going uphill or downhill, or as we took a break after becoming tired, whether around the corner there was a paradise or a pitfall. That’s how we started.

When I hear the word electric, I think of Pikachu!

I felt that group vocals for ‘Airplane’ coming from all the BTS members who’ve been together through this journey would create an even more heartfelt song.

We’re working out, watching Netflix and learning to play instruments. I think we’re doing a lot of self-development, and also just trying to stay active.

The way I work uses a very on-the-spot flow, and I write the lyrics and the music when I feel them coming.

I don’t think you should feel too pressured about a mixtape. Just do what you want to do and show the music you want to show. You’re not trying to win something big with it.

We started out because we love music and dancing.

It’s such a great honor to be mentioned along The Beatles.

When I was a little boy, my wish was to be on an airplane. My wish was to get on a plane and fly to the sky.

Everyone liked me when I went up on the stage at a talent search in elementary school, and that’s when I decided to become a music artist.

I remember being captivated by Jules Verne’s ‘Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea’ when I read it as a kid.

The music helped me sympathize with our young generation and also empathize with them. I’d like to create and write more music that represents them.

Merely quantitative differences, beyond a certain point, pass into qualitative changes.

The greatest discovery of all time is that a person can change his future by merely changing his attitude.

It is not possible for any thinking person to live in such a society as our own without wanting to change it.

I guess some people never change. Or, they quickly change and then quickly change back.

People always fear change. People feared electricity when it was invented, didn’t they?

We’re only going to keep getting better. Let’s keep growing and changing the game.

The worse feeling is when someone makes you feel special, then suddenly leaves you hanging, and you have to act like you don’t care at all.

I never want to change so much that people can’t recognize me.
