BTS is continuing to keep ARMY on its toes, with the band unleashing a surprise hidden ARIRANG track on Friday (April 3) that’s only available on the project’s deluxe vinyl.
The special red-and-white disc, which is available now to purchase on the boy band’s website, arrives exactly two weeks after the 14-track — well, 15-track — album dropped, debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. Fans who received their vinyls have been posting videos of the bonus song titled “Come Over” on social media.
“I’m lost, can I come over?” the ethereal dance song’s hook goes. “I just wanna say I’m sorry.”
The septet comprised of RM, Jin, SUGA, j-hope, Jimin, V and Jung Kook first announced the hidden track’s existence during a Wednesday (April 1) livestream on Weverse, during which they also celebrated ARIRANG‘s debut atop the U.S. albums chart as well as lead single “SWIM” entering the Billboard Hot 100 at No. 1. Toward the end, SUGA told viewers, “A song that I produced is coming out soon — it’s finally coming out, a special song on the LP.”
RM also teased, “For those coming to the Goyang concert next week, you might be able to hear it.” (The group’s world tour in support of ARIRANG kicks off April 9 with three shows at Goyang Stadium in South Korea.) Several of the guys also agreed on the livestream that “Come Over” will be the next “Take Two,” their 2023 single that reached No. 48 on the Hot 100. When Jimin asked whether the new track would be shared on streaming services, the consensus was that it’ll remain exclusive to the physical deluxe vinyl.
ARIRANG was released on March 20, finally putting an end to BTS’ yearslong music drought that was necessitated by the members enlisting in the South Korean military and working on solo projects. But even before their temporary break from band activities, ARMY hadn’t gotten a new full-length from BTS since 2020, the year Be topped the Billboard 200 and spawned No. 1 U.S. singles “Dynamite” and “Life Goes On.”
