BTS talked about their prior debut that they might be debuted with different group name.
On the broadcast of Mnet’s “Yaman TV,” they stated that there were other names that might be choosen before they decided on ‘Bangtan Boys.’
During the broadcast, one of the MCs asked, “What’s the meaning of ‘Bangtan Boys?’” J-Hope replied, “The meaning of ‘bangtan’ is to guard against something. So our name means that we will boldly defend our music and our value/worth.”
The MCs then gave another question, “’Bangtan’ doesn’t have anything to with the last name Bang?” referring to Bang Si Hyuk, producer and CEO of Big Hit Entertainment. Suga responded, “Some people think that our name means ‘Boys Created by Bang Si Hyuk,’ but that’s not true.”
When they were asked what other names suggested before ‘Bangtan Boys,’ the members laughed and shared, “There was ‘Big Kids’ because our agency is ‘Big Hit,’ ‘Young Nation,’ and more.” After telling these possible names, J-Hope commented, “Hearing these other names makes me think that ‘Bangtan Boys’ is a lot better,” causing laughter.
Meanwhile BTS is preparing for their follow up promotion with "Dope/Sick". The music video will be released on June 24.
