* ''BTS World'', a mobile game released on June 26, 2019. It's an [[Episodic Game|Episodic]] [[Visual Novel]]/[[Gacha Game]] where the player takes the role of the group manager and has to go through several journeys with the group members from their pre-debut era to the current day.

* [[Pep Talk Song]]: since their stated mission is to give people a respite from their difficult lives with their songs, this is a given. Among their most notorious are "Not Today", "No More Dream", "21st Century Girl" and "A Supplementary Story: You Never Walk Alone".
* [[Pretty Fly for a White Guy]]: due to their heavier hip-hop/rap leanings around their debut era, their initial image threaded towards a "gangsta" line. However, after 2014 and their boot camp in actual hip-hop culture for ''American Hustle'', they dropped this image like a hot potato, with RM even publicly apologizing for his initial gaffes and putting it under [[Old Shame]].
* [[Protest Song]]: "No More Dream" and "N.O" are protests against the Korean education system. "Baepsae", meanwhile, does so towards the Korean class system and their contradictory bouts of [[Tall Poppy Syndrome]] towards people who want to socially ascend and victim-blaming towards the ones who cannot do so. "Am I Wrong?" is a call out to the youth that doesn't care about the state of the world and disentangle them from politics, paradoxically helping bad politicians with their indifference. "Go Go" is one towards people who lives day-to-day because of YOLO-ing and overspending their money in pointless luxuries because they don't really see any reason to save money as things like mortgages for a home and having a family are even more above their paycheck.
* [[Rated "G" for Gangsta]]: Played with. Their styling and sound are notoriously softer than the ones they had around his debut era and early years (just compare the MV of "No More Dream" to the ones for "I Need U" or "DNA"), but the themes they tackle in their songs had become harder and more serious.
* [[Reality Subtext]]: Given the way the group tend to process their issues though their lyrics, it happens a lot. Some examples:
