Jin (BTS) speaks out about not being credited in Arirang album

DƯƠNG HƯƠNG |

Jin (BTS) directly spoke out about his failure to appear in the songwriting and production credits of the album "Arirang".

In a recent interview video with Rolling Stone, male singer Jin shared his feelings about the moment of reuniting with BTS members after completing military service. He said that he feels most comfortable returning to work with the group.

Previously, BTS released the studio album "Arirang" on March 20 - marking their return with a full 7-member lineup after a long period of interruption.

The media has promoted "Arirang" as a meaningful album, when the whole group participates in the process of composing and producing songs.

Even, to focus on making a new album, in the second half of last year, 7 BTS members went to the US together, gathering at a luxurious villa in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles.

However, when the album "Arirang" was released with 14 songs, fans discovered that Jin was the only BTS member who did not appear in the credits (composition and production) of any song.

In an interview with Rolling Stone, Jin said that his not being named in the credits for the album "Arirang" was not due to being eliminated, but because the schedule was overlapping during the important production stage.

According to Jin, when he participated in the project, the album was deeply deployed, with "more than 100 songs created" in BTS's joint writing camp, most of the work was almost completed.

Jin only has a short period of time from 7-10 days to participate in song selection and recording practice sessions.

On the other hand, Jin's personal tour schedule has been scheduled in advance, making it difficult for him to participate more deeply in the songwriting process of the album "Arirang".

The male singer admitted that he was a little regretful but emphasized that postponing the album just to participate fully was unreasonable and the circumstances at that time required making a realistic decision.

Saying I don't regret it is not right, but if I try to extend the time, the album will be postponed. Considering that fans have been waiting, that is the best decision at that time. There will always be other opportunities ahead," Jin expressed.

The eldest brother of BTS also shared about the challenges of becoming an idol in his 30s. The physical requirements are increasing, but he still tries harder to bring quality performances.

Speaking about BTS's identity, he said that after many discussions, the members came to the conclusion that: "It is what we do that defines us", emphasizing the commitment that BTS always tells their own stories.
