LEARN LYRICS

Picture waking from a dream, opening your eyes to an empty room, yet feeling someone’s heartbeat right beside you. That is the emotion BTS captures in “Stay.” The lyrics jump between quiet whispers and bright bursts of hope, repeating the promise “I know you always stay.” Even when miles apart, the members reassure each other (and their fans) that their bond is stronger than distance or time. Lines about casting spells, chasing clouds, and seeing the present “shine like a pearl” turn separation into a magical adventure where friendship is the guiding light.

Released during a time when concerts were canceled and the world felt isolated, “Stay” became BTS’s love letter to ARMY. The cheeky “We connect to 7G” nods to the seven members and their futuristic wish for limitless connection. By the end, the song feels like a group hug: a reminder that no matter where you are—under city lights, by the sea, or alone in your room—the music, the memories, and the promise of “always” will keep us together until we meet again.

BTS (방탄소년단) are a seven-member pop and hip-hop group from the Republic of Korea. Also known as Bangtan Boys, they debuted in 2013 and grew into a global phenomenon with energetic performances and polished storytelling. Their music blends rap, pop, and R&B, with lyrics about youth, self-love, and mental health. Hits like Dynamite, Butter, and Boy With Luv topped charts and expanded K-pop worldwide.

For Korean learners, BTS are ideal because songs feature clear hooks, repeated phrases, and everyday vocabulary. Listening with lyrics helps you notice verb endings, particles, and pronunciation patterns while staying motivated by catchy choruses.
