BTS spread the melody of "Arirang" around the world through the animation of its fifth full-length album.

Big Hit Music released an animation containing the message of the new report "ARIRANG" on its official SNS in BTS at 11 a.m. on the 13th.

The video begins in 1896, illuminating the seven young men gathered in front of the phonograph. When the gramophone is turned around, the rhythm of the Korean folk song "Arirang" flows out to immerse viewers in an instant. Afterwards, those who crossed the Pacific Ocean in giant boats record songs in unfamiliar countries and play them to local people. The background shifts to modernity and the BTS on stage appears. The members perform passionately with cheers from the audience at the concert hall with purple lights. The animation ends with a scene in which a BTS that conveys hope and comfort through music stands proudly in front of Gwanghwamun.

The video was inspired by the record of the first recording of "Arirang" in Washington, U.S., in 1896. Using this historical moment as a motif, it sheds light on the actions of BTS contributing to promoting Korean culture around the world. Big Hit Music said, "I wanted to tell people who don't know 'Arirang' well about this song. I hope many people will be able to find the lyrics of "Arirang" and sympathize with the unique Korean sensibility in the song."

BTS first released a group photo of the new report "Arirang" along with the animation. The members showed a sophisticated appearance in suits that the seven people in the video come to mind.

Meanwhile, BTS will release its fifth full-length album "Arirang" at 1 p.m. on March 20. Chairman Bang Si-hyuk is in charge of general production and contains 14 songs containing "BTS of the moment." On the 21st, the day after its release, BTS Comeback Live ｜ ARIRANG will be held in Gwanghwamun Square. The stage will be broadcast live worldwide on Netflix.
