BTS is set to kick-off for their upcoming comeback album this February 21 titled, "MAP OF THE SOUL:7", but before that, the group teases fans as they released a pre-MV of their track featuring the artistic dance of MN Dance Company, a group of foreign Slovenian professional dancers.
The dance exudes an outstanding work and collaboration of their parts of the body, leaving an impressive impression on the fans and viewers.
The lyrics of the song that was written by RM himself, member and leader of the group took on an in-depth quote coming from Martha Graham, who is a well-known dancer as well, flashing to the video saying, "A dancer dies twice--- once when they stop dancing, and this first death is most painful."
The song wanted to unleash and portray the inner selves of an artist, wherein a hidden shadow is present. This shadow represents their concerns, fears, or struggles that time will come; music will not be the same as they were to them.
However, this song aims to move an artist that the moment an artist faces the "Black Swan" inside of them, a realization may come, and the true meaning of music can be understood.
This is a confession of what the members feel, and "losing fans" is not their only fear, but "losing the passion for music."
It is always a massive struggle for every musician when looking for a new concept to do, a new idea or genre that will make their fans happy and connected to them due to the growing population of musicians all over the world.
Due to the artistry, "Black Swan already top around 93 countries in the world for iTunes chart, and the pre-selling for their upcoming album reached almost 3.5 million copies that were sold.
On the other hand, BTS is set to showcase their first "Black Swan" performance in the US, through the show, "The Late Late Show with James Corden this upcoming January 28.
Due to this, ARMYs can't help themselves but anticipate if what kind of choreography will BTS pull out this time. Given that their comeback always features a different type of genre such as "Fake Love," Boy with Luv," "Blood, Sweat, Tears," "DNA," and many more, "Black Swan" is expected to focus on more classical and contemporary dance.
However, during BTS reaction video for the MV through a live video streaming, the members confirmed that they will be doing another choreography unlike what MN Dance company did.
Though it is said that they will not be recreating the full of emotion dance like in the art film MV, BTS will not disappoint their fans and give their best dance exceeding the expectations of other netizens.
Meanwhile, fans then noticed the connection of the dance choreography of the art film to the past performance of BTS last 2018. This is making fans more excited and point out the witty idea of the group.
MN Dance Company will be performing as well along with BTS during the said show, though, if it is joint or unrelated is yet to be announced.
