The new single & video are available now
Jimin of 21st-century pop icons BTS has unveiled his solo single “Closer Than This” along with an accompanying music video via BigHit Music.
“Closer Than This” is dedicated to his fans with the lyrics expressing a heartfelt message to Army. The track conveys Jimin’s sincere appreciation and love for his fans. It sings of never letting go of ‘your’ hand even throughout the changing of the seasons, offering a sense of assurance and comfort with a promise that ‘even if we’re temporarily apart, we’re always together.’
“Closer Than This” is an easy-listening track with an intriguing blend of a calm, so othing beat and hip-hop rhythm. Jimin’s vocals layered with that of a children’s choir add a hopeful and heartwarming feel to the tune. Jimin sings over the repetitive guitar riff, uplifting listeners while exuding a sense of melodic tranquility.
The accompanying music video opens with an intimate behind-the-scenes look at Jimin working on the track. It then takes viewers on a nostalgic trip down memory lane with footage of BTS’ debut in 2013, their sold-out stadium concerts with Army, countless chart-breaking records, and unforgettable moments at prestigious global music awards.
The track also marks the finale for #ThisIsJimin, a series of short-form content that Jimin has shared with his fans over the last three months. The artist released a slew of performance videos on social media channels, which included a snippet of the performance to “Closer Than This” to tease the single before its release. Bringing #ThisIsJimin to a completion, “Closer Than This” acts as an unforgettable gift that will hold a special place in fans’ hearts.
