BTS continue to tease their highly-anticipated comeback single 'SWIM'
It's out this week
It's been a long time coming, but finally the wait is almost over. Earlier this year, BTS announced their tour, and album 'Arirang'. Then, it was announced that the band would be the subject of two Netflix shows, a documentary, following them as they return to music after their hiatus, and the other, a live stream of their comeback gig in Seoul, South Korea.
Now, as the date for the first song from their upcoming album is nearly here, the band have been teasing fans with short clips from the music video. The first clip to be shared, earlier this week, showed a woman, wearing a long flowing dress and coat, walking up to see a model of a tall ship, encased in a glass cabinet, in a museum.
The second clip features a real tall ship, as the song plays in the background. The camera pans around to show all seven members of the band, standing on the deck of the ship looking out to sea, wearing black coats.
Following these teases fans have been left very excited, with one writing: 'Kim seokjin 's voice is an ethereal masterpiece that heals the souls.' (sic)
Another commented: 'Jin’s voice is literally perfect, it leaves me speechless'.
