Bts’s Secret - Volume 1 Chapter 10
I was driving the members to Bighit Entertainment some members were going to produce more music while others were going to practice dancing. Jin was fiddling with broken objects to see if he could fix them all and seemed very happy. “I see that you showed Jin new ways to use his powers but I thought you would be training us to make our powers stronger or something.” V said while looking at me. “Oh I thought you guys knew.” I looked at the group a little suprised. “You guys haven’t realized it yet?”
“What do you mean?” V looked confused.
“The source of your powers comes from love and devotion. Your powers first came from your family of course then your friends. But the more people love you the stronger your powers will grow. That’s the reason why your powers aren’t that strong yet but when you get more fans I’m sure that your powers will grow exponentially.”
Everyone looked astonished, we arrived at the company and everyone piled out and did their own things.
They were getting ready to release the first Bangtan Bomb and the BTS Showcase a couple of weeks later.
In between they finally had a break but they were cooking something up from the looks of it.
“What are you guys up to?” I asked curiously.
“We were thinking of an official name for our fans.”
“Oh and what have you come up with?”
“Hm we’re Bulletproof Boyscout so something associated to that would be good.”
“So maybe things along the line of the military or something?”
“Oh that’s good but maybe something shorter military is too long.”
“How about an acronym?”
“Yeah that would be good”
“Oh I got it how about ARMY”
“Ok then the acronym would be…”
“A for adorable.” Jin said.
“R for representative, I mean they represent us and our Hope’s and dreams.” J-Hope said.
“M how about military?”
“Nah that doesn’t really fit the fans”
“Ok M oh got it MC like master or the arts, you know high level meaning we are special to them.” RM thought.
“Wow that’s very clever.” I told him.
“Alright last letter Y….hmmmm yougurt, yellow, young. Oh got it youth since most fans will be young”
“Alright BTS and ARMY the body armor and military are always together so the fans will always be together with us.”
“Perfect!” Everyone started high fiving.
On July 9th, 2013 BTS officially announced the fans name as ARMY.
