[NEWS] #BTS spoke about the album and their activities through Big Hit Music (4) Q. One thing that hasn't changed compared to the past - RM: When I am with the members, the side of myself that I like the most comes out. It is things like the innocence and childlike wonder of my childhood. We often say that we have the most fun when we are together. It is not easy to meet friends who are like family. - Jin: If I had to pick something that has improved rather than changed, it would be that the members have become closer. The atmosphere of naturally laughing and joking around when we are together remains the same. Even now, if there is a good restaurant, we often go out to eat together. - Suga/V: I don't think our passion for the stage and our love for it will change. - Jimin: There will be difficulties whenever we take on new challenges in the future. So, we must continue to ponder what is right and make choices. Nevertheless, our attitude of swimming forward without stopping, just like 'SWIM,' will not change. - J-Hope/Jungkook: Our feelings for ARMY remain unchanged. We are always grateful and love you. Q. Message to ARMY - Group: We sincerely thank ARMY for waiting for us for such a long time. We missed you all a lot too, and the fact that the seven of us can be together again is more precious than anything else. We will come to you through music, performances, the upcoming world tour, and various other activities. Please feel free to enjoy yourselves, and are you ready to enjoy it with us? We have prepared many stages for you to enjoy together, in addition to the album, so let's have fun together. We truly love you. m.entertain.naver.com/home/article/6…

[NEWS] #BTS about Song of the Year 'SWIM' - RM: As it is the title track, we spent the longest time deliberating on it. We tried for a whole month to create a song that surpasses 'SWIM,' but it wasn't easy. When I first heard the song, I felt it had a clean and smooth charm, much like Pyongyang cold noodles. The more I listened to it, the more I felt a desire to "swim along with it." - Jin: Rather than a song that immediately grabs your attention from the start, it was a song with a power that remains unforgettable the more you listen to it. In particular, the rhythmic point that appears in the middle of the song (sounds like "ddong-tta-da-dang") is memorable. When listening to that part, I lose track of time. - J-Hope: We strived to create a performance where the song is clearly audible even while watching the stage. There are details such as movements that express waves or points where we quietly sink as if diving. At first, I was worried that it might feel "boring" amidst songs with strong impacts, but as I listened more, I found myself naturally blending into the sound and feeling comfortable. It also matched the theme we wanted to convey the best, so we chose it as the title track. - V: Amidst the songs with strong sounds, "SWIM" felt the most understated. At first, I didn't think it was a stimulating song, but the more I listened to it, the more I felt that it was something I could cherish and listen to for a long time. - Jungkook: The more I listened to it, the more I felt, "This is the right fit." The lyrics capture moments that showcase "the current BTS," and the performance features new points different from our previous work, so I hope you will pay attention to them. - Group: Just a song like life. We hope it is a song for everyone who simply swims day by day, splashing and breathing in and out. It is a song that gets warmer the more you listen to it, so we hope it becomes a source of strength for everyone as they go through their own lives. Also, just like 'Arirang,' which was passed from mouth to mouth and remained by people's side for a long time, we hope 'SWIM' will remain in the hearts of many for a long time. m.entertain.naver.com/home/article/6… #BTS_ARIRANG
