The group BTS will release a new song, "Come Over," at 1 p.m. Friday, its agency Big Hit Music said.
"Come Over" was a track included only on the deluxe vinyl (LP) of the fifth studio album "ARIRANG," released April 3. The song is being officially released as part of the "2026 BTS FESTA" event, which BTS holds each year around June 13, its debut anniversary.
"Come Over" was produced by Suga, with leader RM and j-hope participating in the composition and lyrics, adding to its significance. Combining a stadium anthem with a pop sound, the track blends grand synthesizers with powerful vocals to deliver a strong resonance. In particular, it captures the feeling of ultimately turning toward a precious presence even in moments of being lost and wandering, and can also be read as a message to ARMY, the fandom that has stayed by their side for a long time. The song was previously unveiled at the "BTS WORLD TOUR 'ARIRANG'" concerts, where it drew an enthusiastic response from audiences.
A limited-edition vinyl, "ARIRANG (613 Limited Edition Picture Disc Vinyl)," will also be released the same day. This album includes all tracks from the fifth studio album along with bonus tracks such as "Voice Message: Love Song" and "NORMAL (Korean Ver.)," for a total of 16 songs. "Voice Message: Love Song" features conversations among the members on the album's core question, "What Is Your Love Song?"
BTS has been creating special memories with fans through "2026 BTS FESTA." Beginning with the flagship content "Family Photo," released June 4, the "Hooligan" performance video, "NORMAL LOG," and a new episode of "Run BTS 2.0" were unveiled in sequence. With the addition of the new song release, the vinyl release, and a Busan concert, the festive mood has been heightened further.
Meanwhile, BTS will exclusively release the music video for "Merry Go Round," a track from the fifth studio album, on the global music platform Spotify at 6 p.m. on June 19. The song uses the motif of an endlessly turning carousel to tell a story of moving forward even within the cycle of life.
