Boy group BTS (BTS) was also the name of the album.
On the afternoon of the 20th, 'Studio Notes | Arirang' was broadcast live on Weverse, a fan platform of BTS (RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V, Jungkook).
On this day, Jimin confessed honestly about his fifth full-length album, "ARIRANG." He said, "When I heard the title of the album, I thought, 'Is it okay?' Arirang folk song itself is a word that Koreans have naturally known since they were young, and it is a folk song, so I wondered, "Can we use this word?"
RM then said, "We're all Koreans, aren't we from Korea. He explained, "I thought of it as a 'village' in a really dry sense, so I carefully thought about it and chose it."
V was satisfied with 'Arirang'. He said, "The word 'Arirang' itself is lovely and meaningful. Beyond that, I thought there would be a lot of things we could express," Jin said, smiling, "In fact, when I first heard it, I thought, 'Our company is finally making Arirang?'
