Yes,the translation may be a problem.
But i got to say,i listened to other asian bands,and was able to understand the lyrics and the meaning behind it.
BTS uses some methaphors/wordplay to describe things,i simply dont think that those are good enough,or that the thematic they are used for,is worth it.
The last video you posted,isnt that bad,lyric-wise and i understood the meaning,but i have seen better.
,,I can understand why you wouldn't though, as you aren't a big fan of rap (Or much music in general it seems.) and probably lack the ability or effort to try that.''
Like i said,im not a fan of rap,but i am a fan of music.
Pretty much my whole family is into music(my dad also earned money with his music).
But in my eyes,BTS is just a overhyped boy band that gets attention for their looks/mainstream thematics/marketing/dancing/interviews but not because of the music itself,i dont even know if they write all of their songs themself.
Its like when gangnam style became popular....this happened because PSY is a good entertainer,thats what he is good at.
As for my personal preference of music:Power metal,rock,punk(not much anymore),jazz,classical music....i dont care how they look or if they can dance,or have a cool backstory,i simply want to listen to good music and i have no problem with taking time to find out a songs meaning and read about it-if i actually enjoy that song and think the lyrics are worth it.
For example,i like songs about society and its norms and hypocrisy,or things that people usually dont talk about.
A good story,is fine as well,as long as its nothing generic that you would hear on the radio everyday anyway.
With 20,youre older than the target audience,thats right.
Still....i really doubt you would listen to it in 5 years 
The reason why i said,,growing out of'',is that this kind of music isnt simply aiming for a certain group of people,who like a certain style of music.
Its aiming for young people(mostly girls who adore the band members).
When people get older,they usually dont have much use for the topics/style of those bands,and there is a reason why boy bands are generally young.
But youre welcome to prove me wrong.
Lets stay in contact,and in 5 years,you let me know if you still listen to them 
Just because a musician has a backstory/dance moves etc doesn't mean their music is bad. And from your last post I figured you said you didn't like music. Yes, they do write their own songs actually and tbh you shouldn't say an artists song has no meaning. If you can't see a meaning it just means you can't understand it. I personally believe every musican has a meaning behind their music if they are serious. (Even screamo scum have a meaning even if I disagree their music can even be classed as music.)
End of the day it is preference. If you think they are "an overhyped boy band that gets attention for their looks/mainstream thematics/marketing/dancing/interviews" just from listening to the songs I sent, then that's your opinion. Personally I feel that is a little judgy without actually knowing much about them but that's just me I guess. I am not one to go too deep into dissing musicians just from a handful of their songs. xD
Ty for your opinion regardless. Even if you do come across as some hipster wannabe trying to avoid the "mainstream" like it is a plague. Also, everyone I know who liked them have been late teens. But hey-ho. I don't judge a musician by age range? Seems more like a hipster wannabe thing to do than someone into music for music.
@Snoopy I know SHINee and G Dragon, both also very good <3
