For the first time, BTS released a song entirely in English. “Dynamite” exploded onto the music charts and YouTube’s trending page during August 2020, and included a few adorable shots of these K-pop performers. Here’s what Jimin said about one scene with the youngest member of the group, Jungkook. 

BTS released their music video for ‘Dynamite’

This K-pop group is lighting up the music charts with their new single, “Dynamite.” The music video for BTS’ recently-released song features bright colors, a retro vibe, and an uplifting feel, as BTS members hoped to bring a little bit of happiness to fans during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. 

“This is a situation that everybody else around the world is facing, so we just started to explore what can we do right now, what can we do really good?” BTS rapper, Suga, said of the single, according to an interview with USA Today. 

The music video for “Dynamite” highlights the K-pop performers drinking milk, eating donuts, and freestyle dancing. There’s even one adorable moment when Jimin jumps onto Jungkook’s back.

A few moments in ‘Dynamite’ were ‘freestyled’ by the BTS members

According to fans, RM asked if the creators behind the music video asked Jimin to jump on Jungkook’s back. Jimin responded, saying it was “freestyle.” When the boys reacted to the music video for the first time during a V Live, they called the moment “so sentimental.”

Jimin smiled in response. This wouldn’t be the only time Jikook stole hearts in the “Dynamite” music video. The two of them dancing and taking off their jackets together? Iconic and adorable.

Some even pointed out the similarities to Jimin’s solo dancing and Michael Jackson’s dance moves. Not all of the dances were unscripted, of course.

The boys danced together in their pastel clothes, further showcasing their talents. This is just the beginning of this retro era, though, as RM confirmed a new album is already in the works.
