BTS' youngest member, Jungkook, has released a new single titled 'Never Let Go' ahead of the group's 11th anniversary. The song is a heartfelt tribute to the unwavering love and bond between BTS and their dedicated fanbase, known as ARMY.
The Golden Maknae, as Jungkook is fondly called, poured his emotions into this track, which celebrates the strong friendship between the group and their fans. Upon the song's release, fans flooded social media with praise. One fan tweeted, "Jungkook's angelic voice feels so soothing and melts our hearts...Kookie, please come back soon. We miss you and the other members too. ARMY will never let go of BTS." Another fan added, "We miss you so much, JK. We will never let go. Thank you for this beautiful song."
Jungkook has released several solo songs, including '3D' featuring Jack Harlow, 'Too Much' featuring The Kid Laroi and Central Cee, 'Seven' featuring rapper Latto and 'Standing Next to You'. These tracks have topped music charts globally, showcasing his versatility and talent.
Formed in 2010 and debuting in 2013 under BIGHIT Entertainment, BTS—comprising Jin, Suga, J-Hope, RM, Jimin, V and Jungkook—has become a global phenomenon. Their debut single album, '2 Cool 4 Skool,' and their first studio albums, 'Dark & Wild' and 'Wake Up,' released in 2014, set the stage for their meteoric rise.
BTS made a significant impact on the global music scene with their single 'Mic Drop,' which earned them Gold Certification from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Over the years, they have produced numerous hits such as 'Fake Love,' 'Fire,' 'Blood, Sweat & Tears,' 'Dynamite,' 'Boy With Luv,' 'Idol,' 'Butter,' and 'Permission to Dance.'
Jungkook also took to Weverse to express his gratitude and share his thoughts with ARMY. He wrote:
"ARMYs, did you get my song gift? I hope you like it :) I worked on the song from the start thinking of you. Maybe it could feel like the hook is lengthy and repetitive, but actually, I wanted to show you a dance performance of the house genre with this song. It was intended as a song for performance, but I didn’t have time to proceed with it. I regret it so much. If I could turn back time, I would do all I can to film it. I'm leaving this post to ask for your understanding on that part. Anyway, it's already our 11th anniversary haha. Thank you for always being with us. I hope you don't get sick and stay healthy always. It's now summer, and the weather's gotten really hot, so be careful of the heat! Goodbye."
