BTS JiMin has returned with a new solo album. According to Big Hit Music, JiMin released the audio of his second solo album ‘MUSE’ and the music video for its title track ‘Who’ simultaneously worldwide at 1 PM (KST) on the 19th.
‘Who’ is a hip-hop R&B track that sings about the poignant situation and confusing feelings of longing for someone never met. The contrast between the sexy and bold beat and rhythm, and the pure and naive lyrics about wanting to find true love, is a key point of appreciation.
The ‘Who’ music video, posted on the HYBE Labels YouTube channel, captures JiMin’s journey to find true love. JiMin showcases his excellent expressive power by conveying the story of the song through dance. He wanders through the streets like a person exploring love, falling into confusion. Later, he maximizes the emotional line of the song by retracing his past and returning to his original place. The video ends with a scene of JiMin’s back, feeling empty, leaving a lasting impression.
JiMin expressed a lonely stroll through the streets and scenes of passing through crowds as a performance. He reveals sensuality with captivating choreography while exuding rough charm through dynamic group dances, creating a stage out of the urban nightscape that forms the music video’s backdrop with a blend of delicacy and strength.
The camera movements that highlight JiMin’s performance add visual interest to the music video. Additionally, LED signs featuring the titles of the album’s tracks appear throughout the video, adding a touch of fun. Posters reading ‘1995s TOP love song’ and scenes shot to appear as if taken with a camcorder enhance the vintage atmosphere.
Meanwhile, JiMin’s second solo album ‘MUSE’ is an album that candidly unfolds the journey of finding inspiration surrounding ‘me.’ This new release includes seven tracks on the theme of ‘love,’ including the title track ‘Who’ and the pre-released song ‘Smeraldo Garden Marching Band (feat. Loco).’
As fans’ expectations converge on JiMin’s new musical attempts and growth, his future activities are highly anticipated.
