From "2 COOL 4 SKOOL" to "Dynamite," BTS has captivated fans around the world.

BTS recently spoke to Esquire about "Dynamite," the K-pop group's first chart-topping song to hit No. 1 in the United States from the album, "Be."

"We were trying to convey the message of healing and comfort to our fans. World domination wasn't actually our plan when we were releasing 'Dynamite,'" Jin told Esquire, with RM noting it "wouldn't be here if there was no COVID-19."

RM explained the group's relationship with their fans, known as ARMY.

"When we feel exhausted, when we hear the news all over the world, the tutoring programs, the donations, and every good thing, we feel responsible for all of this," he said. "We've got to be greater; we've got to be better. All those behaviors always influence us to be better people, before all this music and artist stuff."

Jung Kook chimed in, adding that "the most important thing for us now is to sleep."
