He has already started curating his solo discography with songs like “Lie,” “Serendipity” and “VIBE.”
BTS – consisting of members RM, Jin, SUGA, j-hope, Jimin, V and Jung Kook – have taken the world by storm following their 2013 debut. The group has collected six No. 1 Billboard Hot 100 singles since 2020.
