BTS Shares Their Personal Side Through “NORMAL”
According to BigHit Music, the concept highlights BTS’ more ordinary and unfiltered side.
The teaser also confirmed that a photo previously appearing in New York Post and San Francisco Chronicle ads was actually a scene from the “NORMAL” music video. The newspaper-style promotions had already created curiosity among fans before the reveal.
“NORMAL” is an alternative pop track that focuses on the members’ daily experiences and thoughts. The song features strong drum kicks, snare-based production, and melodic rap performances from the members.
Unlike some of BTS’s large-scale performances, the track takes a more personal approach by showing a quieter side of the group.
After its release, “NORMAL” gained the attention of listeners around the world and achieved a strong performance on the charts.
According to AllKPop, the song debuted at number 41 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart as of April 4, showing continued global interest in BTS’ music.
The upcoming release of the music video also adds another chapter to the success of “ARIRANG”. The album maintained a strong presence on the Billboard 200 chart, ranking at #25 on the July 18 chart. This marks the album’s sixteenth consecutive week on the chart.
