BTS' new single Black Swan is out

South Korean pop super stars

BTS

have released their first single

Black Swan

from their upcoming studio album Map Of The Soul: 7. The track has broken

Psy

's iTunes record for

Gangnam Style

. The track is accompanied by a powerful art film with choreography performed by Slovenia’s MN Dance Company. Fans are in for a double treat, as the track has two versions. The first one features string instrumentals with BTS’ a capella vocals while the studio version features piano and a rolling trap beat. Black Swan is different from what the band has attempted before. It’s raw, dramatic and beautiful. Clearly, Map Of The Soul: 7 seems to be going in a different direction. If the first single is anything to go by, it seems contemplative, and so far the focus seems to be the deep connection an artiste shares with his creative work.
The single looks at how the passage of time affects an artiste. It seems to echo the struggle of the popular band, and their relationship with
