BTS Releases First-Ever Live Performance Album
BTS (RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V, Jungkook), representing Big Hit Music, will release their live performance album "PERMISSION TO DANCE ON STAGE - LIVE" on July 18th at 1 PM. This marks BTS's first-ever live recording release.
The album will capture songs performed during the tour of the same name from 2021 to 2022, including audience cheers and support, delivering the vivid emotions of those moments. After releasing their first live performance album, the members will gather in the United States to begin work on their new album scheduled for spring next year and prepare for upcoming performances.
TXT Concludes Star Chapter with Fourth Studio Album
TOMORROW X TOGETHER (Soobin, Yeonjun, Beomgyu, Taehyun, HueningKai) will release their fourth studio album "별의 장: TOGETHER" (The Star Chapter: TOGETHER) on July 21st at 6 PM. The title track "Beautiful Strangers" is a hip-hop genre song with trap rhythms, telling the story of growth through strength received from others and the beauty found in being different together.
Having built a solid narrative through previous releases "The Dream Chapter," "The Chaos Chapter," and "The Name Chapter," TOMORROW X TOGETHER will conclude the Star Chapter storyline with this album. Notably, this album will feature solo tracks by each member for the first time since their debut, expected to bring great satisfaction to fans.
New Boy Group Debuts with Creative Credentials
The final act features Big Hit Music's new boy group, their first in six years. The rookie team consists of Martin, James, Joohoon, Sunghyun, and Gunho, and will debut on August 18th. All members are teenagers, showcasing the youthful energy befitting the label's youngest artists alongside exceptional creative capabilities.
Despite their young age, they are described as a "young creator crew" who create music, choreography, and videos with completely new and original sensibilities. They have announced plans to work through "collaborative creation" methods, with all five members contributing rather than being limited to specific positions, generating significant curiosity.
Cross-Generational Musical Collaboration
Musical exchanges between Big Hit Music's senior and junior artists are noteworthy. Martin is credited on TOMORROW X TOGETHER's new song "Beautiful Strangers." Additionally, Martin and James have previously contributed to TXT's earlier works "Deja Vu" and "Miracle (기적은 너와 내가 함께하는 순간마다 일어나고 있어)." James also participated in creating choreography for "Deja Vu," building special connections with their senior group.
Global Music Market Leadership
From BTS and TOMORROW X TOGETHER heating up this summer, to the new group inheriting the baton from these two teams leading the global music market, Big Hit Music artists are set to reach fans worldwide with diverse musical offerings.
