Global K-pop superstars BTS have officially revealed the 14-track list for their upcoming fifth studio album, Arirang, marking their first group comeback in nearly four years.
Big Hit Music shared the full track list for Arirang on Weverse on Tuesday, confirming that the album will be released on March 20 at 1 pm KST (9:30 am IST).
The 14-song project includes the lead single SWIM alongside tracks titled Body to Body, Hooligan, Aliens, FYA, 2.0, No. 29 (Interlude), Merry Go Round, NORMAL, Like Animals, They Don't Know 'Bout Us, One More Night, please, and Into the Sun.
Fans, collectively known as BTS ARMY, flooded X (formerly Twitter) with excitement following the announcement.
One fan wrote, “This track list is screaming mature bangers. BTS really said post-service era we coming DIFFERENT.”
Another commented that the album title and song names signal “evolution, rebellion, and anthem energy all in one.”
Many praised the mix of high-energy tracks like Body to Body and Hooligan with more introspective titles such as One More Night and Into the Sun, predicting a versatile and emotionally layered album.
A major comeback after Hiatus:
Arirang will be BTS’ first group album since Proof, released in June 2022. Following that anthology project, the group announced a hiatus to complete South Korea’s mandatory military service. During that period, members focused on solo music ventures before confirming their reunion in a July 1, 2025 livestream.
In a previous statement, the group shared, “Since it will be a group album, it will reflect each member’s thoughts and ideas. We're approaching the album with the same mindset we had when we first started.”
The album features production credits from Diplo, Ryan Tedder, Kevin Parker, and longtime collaborator Pdogg. In addition to the album release, two behind-the-scenes Netflix specials are scheduled to premiere the same week.
Comprising RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook, BTS are also planning a tour following the album’s release, signaling the beginning of a new chapter for the global phenomenon.
With anticipation at an all-time high, ARMYs worldwide are counting down to what many are already calling a defining moment in BTS’ post-service era.
