The album marks the group’s first full release since 2020 and arrives after several members pursued individual music projects during the past few years.
Members take active role in songwriting and production
BTS said the album reflects the collective experiences of its seven members — RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V and Jungkook — over the course of their 13-year career.
The members were directly involved in the creative process. RM contributed to every track on the album except the interlude. Suga and J-Hope are credited on several songs, including “Body to Body,” “Merry Go Round,” and “Normal.”
Jimin participated in the creation of "they don’t know ’bout us" and "Into the Sun,” while V worked on "2.0" and also contributed to "Into the Sun.” Jungkook is credited on four songs, including "Hooligan.”
The group previously said the album’s title draws inspiration from the traditional Korean folk song “Arirang.” BTS described the project as an exploration of emotions such as longing and love, themes the band believes will resonate with audiences around the world.
World tour to follow album release
Alongside the album announcement, BTS confirmed plans for a major world tour supporting the release.
The tour will begin in Goyang, South Korea, on April 9 before moving to North America later in the month. The United States leg will start in Tampa, Florida and run through September, concluding in California.
