Calling all BTS Army and Blinks! Do you know who has more heart in K-pop? Are Boy bands or Girl groups more likely to share their feelings? Global music streaming service Deezer teamed up with LyricFind, the world's leader in licensed lyrics, to analyze the most used English words and phrases in the top 10 BTS and top 10 Blackpink songs worldwide.* Deezer's data, alongside lyrics powered by LyricFind, show how both K-pop bands are more likely to use specific words and phrases in English to emotionally connect with their fans.
When analyzing the two bands, we noticed several crossover words in English. While 'love' was one of the most popular words sung by both groups, boyband BTS love 'love' the most as they use the word a whopping 65 times compared to Blackpink at 43. The all-boy group is also more likely to use emotive language to express how they feel as they sing 'Love you so bad' 8 times in their mega hit, 'Fake Love.' But their need for love and affection isn't always an easy path as they mention pain 13 times in 'On.'
While the mega boy band takes a more touchy-feely approach, the ladies in Blackpink are unapologetically direct in what they want. The fierce foursome use 'sorry,' in a not-so-sorry way. It was used 11 times on their hit tracks including 'Kill this Love,' and 'Kiss and Make Up.' But the ladies also have a sweet side as they use 'kiss' 65 times in the featured songs, compared to the BTS fellas who only use it twice.
Blackpink are also all about girl power! Our top 10 list found that while both bands enjoyed success collaborating with Western artists, Blackpink love to support fellow female artists. The girl group peaked at #3 with supporting vocals on Lady Gaga's 'Sour Candy' and #6 on 'Kiss and Make Up ' with Dua Lipa. BTS seems to be more gender agnostic as they've worked with both male and female artists including Halsey in 'Boy with Luv,' and 'Make it Right' with LAUV.
Blackpink is also all about 'you.' The ladies sing about 'you' 98 times, compared to BTS at 54 times. There's really no 'you'without 'me,' so it makes sense that Blackpink would sing about 'me,' 53 times, while BTS play it cool with 49 times. Logic tuner.

BTS is always up to something behind the scenes, and word on the interwebs is that a special surprise is coming soon!
Deezer, a French music streaming service like Spotify, recently dropped a hint about BTS. If you're new to Deezer but the name sounds familiar, that could be because Deezer accidentally leaked BTS content last year.
Last February, Deezer posted a promo video that was meant to be released after MAP OF THE SOUL : 7 dropped on February 21. In it, BTS teased the album while dressed in never before seen outfits. Deezer quickly removed the video and apologized for the mishap.
We sincerely apologize to @BTS_twt and #BTSARMY. pic.twitter.com/zUipjML1qu
