Which BTS Songs Did Each Member Write?

In short: RM has the most writing credits, on 150 of the 200 songs. Suga follows with 117 and j-hope with 110. Then come Jungkook (19), V (11), Jin (8) and Jimin (8). Suga has the most production credits (16).

| Suga | 117 | 16 | Body to Body (2026) |
| j-hope | 110 | 2 | Body to Body (2026) |
| Jungkook | 19 | 4 | Hooligan (2026) |
| V | 11 | 2 | 2.0 (2026) |

How these credits are counted
- A writing credit means the member is listed as a lyricist and/or composer in the album credits. A production credit means the member is listed as a producer of the track.
- Credits come from the official track listings of each album, as compiled in Wikipedia's album articles. RM was credited as "Rap Monster" until 2017. Both names count as RM here.
- Each song counts once. Remixes and Japanese versions are not counted again.
- Credits vary a lot by era. In 2013–2015 the rap line (RM, Suga, j-hope) wrote on almost every song. The vocal line (Jin, Jimin, V, Jungkook) had only a handful of credits in those years, such as "Outro: Circle Room Cypher" (2013) and "Boyz with Fun" (2015).
