Line 147:
* [[Fan Community Nicknames]]: Their official fan club is named ARMY. Internal nicknames within the fan clubs involve the Korean side calling the international fans "i-lovelies"; they return the favor by calling the Korean fans "K-diamonds"
* [[The Fashionista]]: V, who loves all things Gucci and always wears something from the brand every time he's in public, and J-Hope, a self-admitted shopaholic.
* [[Fan Hater]]: BTS is really... ''there'' for a lot of people who listen to them. Not for their fangirls, the ARMY, however - for ARMY, BTS is a religion and a way of life. And so, it comes with all the expected elements of cringeworthy behaviour from fangirls - shipping, being obsessed with the idea of being dated by one of the band members, and attacking anyone else who even dares to even ''slightly'' criticize BTS (or tells that BTS isn't their cup of tea). It's telling that the BTS fandom has become the new stereotypical definition of the [[LooneyLoony Fan]], outdoing even all the American boyband fandoms in the sheer level of cringeworthyness and utterly pathetic, mockable behaviour.
* [[Fun with Acronyms]]:
** The international name of the group is an initialism for "Bangtan Sonyeondan (which is given the official translation "Bulletproof Boyscouts"). They decided that since 2017 it would also mean "Beyond the Scene".
