Q) I heard that your team’s name meant “to block out the world’s bullets" It’s unique; what do each of tu think of the meaning?

V: I first heard the name “Bangtan" two years hace and it was really awkward. I thought “What is this?" and also “It’s probably temporary. We’d change it when we debut, right?", but the más I heard it, the más I felt that it fit us the best.
