Welcome to the Army: Understanding What It Means to Be a New BTS Fan

Are you a new BTS fan, just like many others around the globe? Yes, you are a baby ARMY, and we are thrilled to have you as part of our vibrant and loving community. This is your space to become a true member of the ARMY, and we are here to guide you every step of the way.

What Does It Mean to Be an ARMY?

Many new fans may wonder if they qualify as an ARMY. If you became a BTS fan because of their appearance or just one member, then you are not necessarily an ARMY. An ARMY is someone who genuinely loves and supports the group, not just because of their looks or one member, but because of their talent, music, and the impact they have made.

Qualifications to Be an ARMY

According to our experiences, here are a few qualities that solidify your status as an ARMY:

Love and listen to most of their songs. Know all the members names, both in Korean and English. Respect them for their work and their personal journeys. Watch and appreciate their funny, iconic moments. Express your love for them in various ways.

Becoming an ARMY

If you are uncertain if you are an ARMY, do not worry. Anyone who listens to their music multiple times and shows interest in following them becomes an ARMY. You don't have to have been with them since the beginning or even know every detail about their history to be a part of this incredible community.

Main Qualifications

The easiest way to gauge if you are an ARMY is by asking yourself these two questions:

Do you love BTS with all your heart? Do you love BTS equally, even if you may have a bias or a bias wrecker?

As long as you support and appreciate their music, you are definitely an ARMY.

Being Welcomed into the Fandom

We are so thrilled to welcome you into this amazing fandom. If you are unsure of where you stand, remember that there are only two main qualifications: loving BTS with all your heart and supporting them equally. Every member of the ARMY makes the group stronger and more vibrant, and your presence is cherished.

So, dear new ARMY, welcome to the family. We are here to support you and guide you through your journey as a BTS fan. Let's love, support, and celebrate BTS together!

Lovely,
THE GOODARMY
