Bts: Icons of K-Pop Paperback – May 1, 2021

I gifted the book my daughter, 11 years for one of birthday gifts. She became a big fan of BTS after she watched RM of BTS speech, Love Yourself in UN. His speech was powerful and amazed all my family.We all turned around to read the book then have figured out how each of seven members have made a lot of efforts to be populist a boy band on the planet. However, the book, BTS is beyond it.

This is so funny, my daughter is all about K-POP! She just loves BTS, I'm just glad that they are still "somewhat" pure.

Arrives in good condition and early I love it

This took a very long time to arrive however it came in perfect condition and the pages with pictures are nice to look at. The book is written simply so that it's easy to understand for more ages.

I am giving this a 5-star rating because my granddaughters love the book; not because I, personally, actually read anything in it!

My daughter was very happy with this book. Recommend it for any BTS fan/army

Ordered for my niece and she loves it!

This book is young-level reading material, say middle to high schoolish. The author writes lots of trivia-like detail, and I did learn some things, but overall it whitewashes the harsher aspects of BTS's journey, saying things like the boys were criticized for certain things, or they had a hard time, but it doesn't explain how or go into any analytical depth about these events. So those looking for in-depth research and the boys' responses about what actually happened will be frustrated by this book. Also some ideas are unresearched and thus incorrect. For instance, in regard to fans' tweeting "ThankYouJimin" in early 2018, the author only says it was random, not that it was in response to him being mass criticized by antis and that fans were trying to make him feel better by saying, Thank you, a phrase Jimin is known for often saying to his fans. So I wonder what else was incorrect or incomplete that I don't know about. Also, I'd bet $100 the author is a V stan, which makes the book feel unprofessional since there's a sense of bias in it. Typos abound, especially as the book goes on. The author also often uses amateurish words as well, like once when referring to their creative content, s/he uses the word "stuff," so this book can feel fairly amateurishly written. To sum up, I might buy this book for a young BTS fan who wants to know more about them from a general, positive viewpoint with a light touch. I'm still waiting, though, for that brutally honest, in-depth BTS biography that I can really sink my teeth into.
