BTS's Jimin has once again captivated fans with his enchanting live performances. On August 4, Jimin released live clips of "Rebirth (Intro)" and "Slow Dance (feat. Sofia Carson)" from his second solo album, "MUSE," on the official BTS YouTube channel, delighting fans with a special rooftop performance in Seoul.
A Rooftop Performance with a View
Filmed on a rooftop of a high-rise building in Seoul, the live clips feature Jimin performing with a live band against the backdrop of the city’s stunning skyline. The open-air setting perfectly complements the fresh and romantic vibes of both songs, enhancing the overall experience for viewers.
Capturing the Essence of Each Song
Jimin masterfully timed each performance to reflect the emotions conveyed in the songs. "Rebirth (Intro)," which explores the excitement of falling in love, was filmed against a sunset backdrop. The lyrics, "You're the light in my darkness / Like the vibe the sun brings / Slowly spreading," beautifully matched the orange hues of the setting sun.
In contrast, "Slow Dance (feat. Sofia Carson)" was performed against the glittering city nightscape, highlighting the deepening emotions of love. Sofia Carson, the American singer and actress who features on the track, made a surprise appearance in the video. The combination of Jimin's captivating high notes, Carson's husky voice, the rich live band arrangement, and the sparkling night view created a cinematic experience.
Dominating the Global Music Scene
Jimin's latest album "MUSE" and its title track "Who" have taken the global music market by storm. "Who" topped Spotify's "Daily Top Songs Global" chart for 11 consecutive days (July 23 to August 2) and maintained its number one spot on the "Weekly Top Songs Global" chart for two consecutive weeks. The track also debuted at number 14 on the Billboard "Hot 100" (as of August 3), while "MUSE" secured the second spot on the Billboard "200."
