On the 24th of May, BTS’ agency – Big Hit Entertainment released the band’s activities for the first two weeks of June before their 8th anniversary on the 13th of this month. So far BTS has released interesting profiles of all the members. For the 7th of June, the BTS Festa 2021 schedule read RM Bicycle. The BTS ARMY all across the world was very confused initially about what this meant. It is not a secret that the leader of the biggest band on earth – RM is a big fan of bicycles. He often posts pictures of the same on BTS’ Twitter account that all the members share. In several BTS vlogs, ARMY saw RM ride a bicycle. In fact, he has said that he cannot drive cars but he loves bicycles. The ARMY was expecting something along the lines of a new song.
RM Bicycle – The BTS Leader Gave A Surprise To The ARMY
On the 7th of June, at midnight KST, BTS uploaded a song called RM Bicycle on their BANGTANTV YouTube Channel. The song was tagged under Festa 2021 and was also uploaded to BTS’ Soundcloud account. Later on in BTS’ blog, RM posted the official lyrics along with his motives and ideas behind making this song. RM Bicycle has been credited to RM and John Eun for production, lyrics, and arrangement. The cover art used for the song is that of a bicycle. The artwork was created by RM’s favorite artist – Sungsic Moon. RM wrote that he wants this song to be a gift for his fans since his last mixtape came out in 2018. You can check out the video of the song below.
In the letter that accompanied the lyrics of the song, RM wrote about how he feels truly at liberty when riding a bicycle. He wrote that it riding makes him both happy and sad. He thanked everyone who helped him get the song out. A song about a bicycle had been in RM’s mind for a very long time now. But since he doesn’t have any concrete plans about the future or isn’t working on anything big at the moment, he decided to use the opportunity of Festa 2021 to release the bicycle song. RM interestingly notes that most of the lyrics for the song were written while riding a bicycle. He also wrote that the song was prepared in the months of February and March earlier this year. RM hopes that the song stays on the playlists of all ARMYs for a long time. He signed the letter with his actual name – Namjoon. We love the song!
