BTS’s Jimin Reveals What Inspired ‘Smeraldo Garden Marching Band’

BTS’s Jimin recently released a behind-the-scenes video on the BANGTANTV YouTube channel detailing what went into the filming of the track video for “Smeraldo Garden Marching Band.” The single, which debuted on June 28, is the first taste ARMYs got of Jimin’s upcoming second solo album, MUSE, which is scheduled to drop on July 19. In the Track Video Behind, the K-pop phenomenon opened up about what inspired “Smeraldo Garden Marching Band (featuring Loco).” 

“It’s actually the first song we worked on,” he revealed. “It came together effortlessly while I had the time of my life in America. We started it because we wanted to capture the happy feeling after we finished the FACE album. It’s the song I liked the most and this is exactly how I wanted you to see it. I’m so happy that it came out exactly as I imagined.”

“From the beginning, I made this song thinking about things you’d like,” he added, addressing the fans. “How can I show you the sides of us that you love the most? This dance, set, and song are the product of that. I hope you can love us exactly as we are. Please love and enjoy it.”
