Global K-pop superstars BTS have revealed the full 14-track listing for their fifth studio album ‘Arirang’, arriving March 20 via BigHit Music. Inspired by the traditional Korean folk song of the same name, the project reflects the group’s roots while capturing where they stand in 2026. It is positioned as a defining statement, channeling their shared journey into a cohesive body of work shaped directly by the members’ creative direction.
The album opens with “Body to Body,” followed by “Hooligan,” “Aliens,” “FYA,” and “2.0,” before reaching the interlude “No. 29.” The lead single “Swim” anchors the second half, flowing into “Merry Go Round,” “Normal,” “Like Animals,” “They Don’t Know ’Bout Us,” “One More Night,” “Please,” and closing with “Into the Sun.” Centered on resilience, “Swim” frames perseverance as devotion to life itself, with RM leading the songwriting.
RM holds writing credits across every track except the interlude, while Suga and j-hope contribute to multiple cuts including “Body to Body,” “Merry Go Round,” and “Normal.” Jimin lends his touch to “They Don’t Know ’Bout Us” and “Into the Sun,” V appears on “2.0” and “Into the Sun,” and Jung Kook plays a key role on four songs, including “Hooligan.” The record reflects a unified creative push from all seven members.
