Big Hit Music announced on March 4 that the title track of BTS's fifth studio album, "Arirang (ARIRANG)," is "Swim (SWIM)."

On this day, BTS released the tracklist for their new album on their official social media channels. The album contains a total of 14 tracks, including "Swim," "Body to Body," "Hooligan," "Aliens," "FYA," and more.

The title track, "Swim," is an upbeat alternative pop song that expresses the determination to move forward at one's own pace, even amid the waves of life. RM took charge of most of the lyrics, enhancing the authenticity of the message.

The first track, "Body to Body," is a shout-out to enjoying the moment with the audience, while "Hooligan" reflects the time spent blazing a trail around the world. The album also features "Aliens," which contains their aspirations toward the world; "FYA," capturing the excitement of their comeback; and "2.0," representing the present of all seven members.

The story of enduring life's burdens continues in the sixth track, "No. 29," and "Merry Go Round." The album also includes "NORMAL," which deals with emotions on and off the stage; "Like Animals," conveying their will to live; and "they don't know 'bout us," showcasing their confidence. "One More Night" sings of an ecstatic moment, while "Please" delivers feelings of companionship. The final track, "Into the Sun," is themed around confession.

The album's production involved Grammy Award-winning producers including Diplo, Ryan Tedder, and El Guincho. Last summer, the members held songwriting sessions in Los Angeles, USA, to prepare for this new release.

The new album will be released worldwide simultaneously at 1 p.m. on March 20. On March 21, "BTS Comeback Live: ARIRANG" will be held around Gwanghwamun Square. The performance will be broadcast live on Netflix.
