First-ever English single available now

Global superstars BTS has released its long-awaited new song “Dynamite,” accompanied by a brand new music video. BTS has addressed their hardships, sufferings, and fears in an honest and personal confession through their fourth studio album, Map Of The Soul : 7, which was released on February 21st via Big Hit Entertainment.

In their new single “Dynamite,” which comes only six months after their last album, BTS sings of joy and confidence, treasuring the little things in life that make life truly valuable and special. The song aims to bring a new surge of much-needed “energy” to reinvigorate the global community in the midst of COVID-19. Creative contributors to “Dynamite” include David Stewart and Jessica Agombar, known for “What A Man Gotta Do” by the Jonas Brothers and “I Love You’s” by Hailee Steinfeld.

This vivid disco pop track marks the superstar group’s first-ever song to be released completely in English; having sought a “breakthrough” to overcome a sense of disheartenment stemmed from the new global climate, BTS embarks on a new challenge through “Dynamite.” Though they had not initially planned to release a digital single, the seven members’ eagerness to be with their beloved fans as soon as they could won the day. The band is excited to be able to share the single’s fervent cheers and encouragement with the listeners around the world.

The accompanying new music video of “Dynamite” is colorful and bright, featuring retro concept props, hairstyles, and attire. The overall mood is lively and vibrant from start to finish, perfectly capturing the joyful energy of the song’s melody and lyrics.

A brilliantly dynamic performance amplifies the vivid and catchy rhythms of “Dynamite.” The choreography is edgy and upbeat with movements that highlight the distinct charms of each BTS member. Simpler movements are tastefully connected, allowing each member to sing and express themselves to their hearts’ extent. The magnificent splash of solo and group choreography of “Dynamite” is sure to bring forth a vibrant and witty charisma that seizes all eyes and ears.

It opens with the image of BTS as they stand gathered but soon scatter. The members one by one express their own style and individuality in different spaces.

BTS delivers dynamic performances in and out of various locations, including a room, doughnut shop, record shop, basketball court, luxurious stage, and open field. The “Dynamite” music video shows off not only remarkable group choreography but also improvised dances, as well as solo and unit performances. The members perform with seriousness and charisma, but also brighten the mood with playful expressions.

The second half of the music video features vibrant “color powder” rocketing into the sky, accentuating the explosive energy and joyful performance of BTS as they dance on an open field.

The first TV performance premiere of “Dynamite” will be at the 2020 MTV Video Music Awards on August 30th at 8 pm EDT.
