ARMY

,,Stan a group that will stan you back."😄

ARMY or A.R.M.Y(아미) is BTS's official fandom name. It was officially established on 9th July 2013. It stands for "Adorable Representative M.C. for Youth" and it carries quite some meaning behind it, given that "Army" is associated with the military, body armor, and how those two things are always together, the fandom name basically means that fans will always be together with BTS. In 2017 was told another meaning that BTS and A.R.M.Y are almost mirrored mages of each other and they have a relationship that is affected by each other. The symbol of A.R.M.Y is expressed as a door on their viewpoint who is waiting and welcoming BTS on the opposite door when BTS opens a new door. Wholesome isn't it?😍

Interesting fact: In ARMYPEDIA, Namjoon revealed that ARMY was only one of the choices for the fandom name. If ARMY didn't get selected as the official fandom name, fans might have been called "Bangwools" or "Bells".
