BTS Lyrics Analysis

Keyword Extraction

Goal: a method for English-speakers to learn vocabulary of a foreign language is to listen to content in that language and have a short list of keywords that you listen for

Using keyword extraction method RAKE and English-translated song lyrics, I extracted some keywords for each BTS song. A future improvement would be to do the extraction on the original Korean lyrics to ensure the correct Hangul vocabulary is used.
