This week, ARMYs and Coldplay fans can look forward to a special episode of YouTube’s “Released.”
BTS confirmed that they will appear in a special episode of “Released,” YouTube’s weekly music series, right before the premiere of their “Permission to Dance (Shorts Challenge Ver.)” Coldplay frontman Chris Martin will interview the septet, with the video airing on September 9, 11:45 p.m. ET (September 10, 12:45 p.m. KST).
The trailer for BTS “Released” starts with RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook greeting their fans. BTS leader Kim Namjoon then confirms that they will chat with Chris Martin. ARMYs can look forward to hearing straight from the boys about the “Permission to Dance” challenge, featuring people worldwide dancing to the group’s second English-language song. The original song debuted in July, replacing their own song “Butter” as the No.1 song on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
