When Jin titled his new solo track “I'll Be There,” he didn't do it so lightly. According to the BTS star, he really wants to give his listeners comfort, starting with the lead single from his upcoming album Happy.
In a new Dolby Atmos video interview shared exclusively with Bulletin boardthe 31-year-old South Korean singer explains that he wrote his new song — which was released on Friday (October 25) — in hopes of “bringing happiness” to his fans. “When ARMYs feel tired and lonely, I hope this song gives them strength,” Jin says in the clip.
“I have a very clear idea of what kind of emotions I want to share with our fans,” the performer continues. I want our fans, our ARMY, to be happy.
The interview comes as part of Jin's new collaboration with Dolby Atmos in honor of his new solo music. The “Super Tuna” artist also shot an alternative music video with the audio tech company — which Bulletin board premieres exclusively below — with Jin driving a convertible through swirling, colorful lights, performing “I'll Be There” in a futuristic glass room, flirting with some actors on set, and dancing with a group of people in an airport.
Jin also released a standard music video for “I'll Be Alright” on Friday, just weeks before the November 15 release of his debut solo album, Happy. In his new interview, the star revealed that – like “I'll Be Alright” – songs on the six-track LP “have choruses that everyone can sing along to.”
“It's a song that will make you smile,” he added of his new single. “I hope to convey these feelings to my fans because they give me so much energy, laughter and joy.”
Jin's album will make him the latest BTS member to release a solo LP, following previous projects by Jung Kook, Jimin, V, SUGA, RM and J-Hope. The group's full-band activities are currently on hiatus as five of the members complete their mandatory military service, which Jin was the first to complete in June, followed by RM earlier this month.
