B1Ts

B1Ts is a term that has emerged in online communities, particularly within fandoms. It is generally understood to refer to individuals who are fans of the K-pop group BTS. The term is a portmanteau of "BTS" and "ARMY," the official fandom name for BTS. While "ARMY" is the widely recognized and embraced term for the fandom, "B1T" is sometimes used as an alternative or a more casual descriptor by some fans.

The usage of "B1T" can vary. Some individuals may use it to identify themselves as fans of BTS without necessarily aligning with all aspects of the larger ARMY fandom. Others might employ it in a more playful or ironic manner. The numerical "1" in "B1T" is often seen as a stylistic choice, replacing the letter "i" for aesthetic or informal reasons common in internet slang.

It is important to note that "B1T" is not an official designation and its popularity and acceptance can differ across various online platforms and fan groups. The term is not universally used by all BTS fans, and "ARMY" remains the predominant and officially recognized term. The context in which "B1T" is used can also influence its meaning, and it is generally understood within the specific communities where it originates.
