Making a dance for BTS’ ‘Butter’ remix was J-Hope’s idea

In BTS, J-Hope, Jimin, and Jungkook are part of the septet’s dance line. The “Butter” remix performance video marks the first time J-Hope, Jimin, and Jungkook have collaborated on a dance in quite some time.

“We haven’t done something like this in a while,” Jungkook said.

“That’s right,” Jimin agreed.

After filming even more takes, Jimin shared his thoughts about the performance video and went into detail about why the three BTS members decided to make it.

“The reason we did this dance is that it was Hoseok’s idea,” Jimin said in the Bangtan Bomb. “‘Wouldn’t it be nice to show ARMY this new side of us?’ I think that thought started it… I think it’s been around four years since 3J last gathered.”

“Butter (feat. Megan Thee Stallion)” is available on streaming and music-purchasing platforms.
