Earlier on in the week, BTS released an update video on the Big Hit YouTube channel which officially announced the change of their overall group’s branding. While they will remain to be known as BTS, they made the decision to add the new meaning for their group name “Beyond The Scene” . Since their debut, the meaning of BTS was formerly known to fans as being “Bulletproof Scouts” which was the rough translation of their Korean name “Bangtan Sonyeondan” (방탄소년단).
