In 1953, Seoul lay in ruins. Seventy years later, a band from the same city was filling stadiums on five continents, with audiences singing back lyrics in a language most of them did not speak. How did this happen?
The conventional answer is talent, hard work, and a dedicated fanbase. All of that is true. The seven members of BTS spent years training before they ever performed for a paying audience, wrote and produced much of their own music, and built a relationship with their listeners that few artists in any era have matched. But it is not the whole story, and it is not the most interesting part. How BTS Conquered the World is an analysis of the infrastructure that made BTS possible - the half-century of broadband networks, studio software, recommendation algorithms, smartphones, and translation systems that, between them, dismantled the gatekeepers of the twentieth-century music industry and built something new in their place.
