Who is your favorite boy band and Why?

Music is a universal language. Hence, here I am wanting to unite us all through music. When I was younger, I listened to Elvis, Matt Monroe, Frank Sinatra, and the boy bands that I listened to were: N'SYNC, Westlife, Boyz to Men, and the rest. However, I have never been an avid fan of any of them. So, now, at my old age, I never thought I would become an AVID fan of a boy band from South Korea. If someone told me beforehand, I wouldn't have believed it. This is what happened. I have at least 9 blogs, but I'm not providing any links in this post because I know it's prohibited. I usually research on Google for popular topics to write about. I found out that BTS was one of the most popular topics. Furthermore, my granddaughter has been raving about them, buying their pics and endlessly listening to their music. I asked her, "What's so special about them?" Because all I see are 7 young men. Yes, they're good-looking, but all boy bands have handsome members. "They're different, Grandma," she replied, smiling. "Do you know that they won an award from the US Billboard award show?" I was surprised as I had never heard of any foreign boy band winning the Best Group at the Billboard. This further prompted me to research and feature them in my blogs. The blog traffic increased with their articles. Hence, I researched and wrote more about them. As I researched more, I learned more about each of their personalities and their good deeds behind the curtain. I came to know astonishing things about them: they have spoken at the United Nations Assembly about youth and several significant topics. They were the guest of the US president at the White House, they snagged the Top 1 song on Billboard's Hot 100 songs in the U.S., etc, etc,. During each of their birthdays, they donated to charitable institutions. People of all ages can relate to their songs because many of their songs talk about loving one's self, overcoming the "shadows" in one's life, and that life goes on despite all challenges that come one's way. Even their songs, when they seem to be clowning, are about social problems. Like this song about the younger generation being exploited by some employers. You may want to watch the song here, which was interpreted by another Korean. If you have watched the video, you may now know what I mean. Aside from all the things I mentioned above, they are also extremely talented - dancing complex dance choreo while simultaneously singing in perfect pitch. This is an amazing thing to do. They have great personalities as well. They're so kind, generous, and humble. People talk about them greeting even the cleaning staff when they happen to meet them. They bow to everyone, even the younger singers (usually established singers don't bow to the new or younger singers), and they help clean up their spaces after events. It's no wonder their ARMY (BTS fans) also clean up their own spaces after concerts. AND, yes, I am an ARMY! BTS fans are of all ages. Not only teens. Many are aged 30 and above. A lot are also 50 and above. I am 68 myself. I saw a grandma of 91 attending a concert. Well, I think I've given enough reason. What about you? Who is your favorite boy band and why?
