The massively popular K-pop group BTS had fans over the moon when they announced their latest album Map Of The Soul: 7 in January. The 7 in the title refers to a number of things like BTS’ seventh studio album, the group’s seven members (V, J-Hope, RM, Jin, Jimin, Jungkook, and Suga), and the seven years since the band was formed.
The popular group had recently unveiled the teaser of the title track ‘ON’ on TikTok. It went on to break the internet. The highly anticipated album was finally released early morning Friday and contains 20 songs, including the lead single “ON.” The tracklist boasts 14 new songs, such as “Interlude: Shadow,” “Outro: Ego,” and “Black Swan.” The album also features six tracks from BTS’ 2019 EP Map of the Soul: Persona.
In the days leading up to its release, Map of the Soul: 7 became the most-preordered South Korean album of all time, with more than 4 million advance purchases, according to Forbes.
BTS will be busy to promote their new effort, including appearing on The Tonight Show on Monday and joining James Corden for “Carpool Karaoke” on The Late Late Show on Tuesday. A drama series about the group’s rise to the top is set to be released in the second half of 2020.
