Netizens are talking about how Big Hit Music was before BTS debuted.
Recently a post on a popular online community gained traction after casting a question about Big Hit Music before BTS debuted. Originally titled, "Was Big Hit not famous before BTS debuted?", the original poster asked if no one really knew what company Big Hit was before BTS.
Netizens who remember the very beginning days of the company replied:
"Yeah, they did manage 2AM later but the company itself wasn't well known at all."
"Bang Si Hyuk was better known than the company."
"No one knew what Big Hit was but Bang Si Hyuk was well known for multiple hit songs."
"After BTS did well people used to say this is a miracle of a crew/club, not even a miracle of a mid to small-sized company lol"
"They didn't even have many employees in the beginning. Literally crew-sized. People who knew Bang Si Hyuk used to tell him that his company will flop."
"Well, I bet most people didn't know what Big Hit was even after BTS debuted at first."
Meanwhile, Big Hit Music started out as Big Hit Entertainment in 2005. The company was later re-branded as Big Hit Music in March 2021. BTS debuted in 2013.

Bang Si Hyuk had Golden instincts. Signing RM as soon as he heard him must have taken a lot of trust in his gut feels. So much risk, but it paid off as many know. RM became a responsible leader worth following and one of the best concept creators for BTS.
