BTS gave their fans good news to wrap up the weekend with: A new song is coming, and soon!
“We have prepared a new single for ARMY, scheduled for August 21. We are preparing an album for the second half of this year, but we decided to release a single because we wanted to reach our fans as soon as possible.” Boy band shared live via Korean streaming app V LIVE. “Because of COVID-19, people around the world have been through difficult times and we wanted to share some positive energy with our fans.”
They also revealed that the digital single, which they did not share the name with, will be in English. “The song is upbeat and is sung in English, just like ‘MIC Drop’ and ‘Waste It on Me,'” they revealed. “We thought the song sounded perfect since it’s in English. We recorded the guide version and felt that the result was something totally new and fresh.”
The boys added that, just like their fans, the global coronavirus pandemic has been tough on them and that music has helped them get through these tough times.
“We also needed a breakthrough during these unforeseen times, so we worked on this new song. This is a new challenge for us as well,” the band said. “When we first listened to and recorded the song, we were full of energy and our spirits were lifted. We can’t wait to share this song with you all and enjoy it together.”
This good news comes shortly after it was announced that BTS would be among the artists performing for the iHeartRadio Music Fest 2020, which will air on September 27.
