BTS's Jimin released a live video for a couple of his songs MUSE solo album on Sunday (Aug. 4), including a version of “Slow Dance” that features a guest appearance from the song's singer, Sofia Carson. In the first half of the six-plus minute clip, Jimin takes his falsetto to the top of a building, where he performs the midtempo MUSE track “Rebirth” with his live band with the city stretching out on the horizon behind them.
Wearing a black jacket with geometric patterns on the sleeves, Jimin croons the lyrics about being 'special only for you' during the golden hour, with a light orange haze hanging in the air. The scene then changes to night as the title “Slow Dance” fills the screen with a string light font, announcing Carson's arrival.
As the band lean into the song's sharp groove and the city lights burn in the distance, Jimin croons the ballad and Carson slowly appears as she climbs onto the roof in black shorts, a matching jacket and tuxedo-style shirt. The two singers then face off in the middle of the screen and exchange vocals as one of Jimin's band members pulls out a soprano sax solo and the two singers slowly circle each other.
“Thanks to the band for playing with us today,” Jimin says in Korean as the tune ends, adding in English, “thanks for slow dancing with me Sophia.” The “Applause” singer replies, “I enjoyed slow dancing with you, Jimin,” as the pair take their bows and thank each other. The video ends with a pan in the sky and the message, “Special thanks to Jimin's muse, ARMY.”
Jimin left track seven MUSE last month, marking the K-pop star's second solo album. The effort was preceded by the pre-release track “Smeraldo Garden Marching Band” (featuring Loco) and “Closer Than This,” which was released in December.
