Arirang the POWERFUL meaning behind BTS Album Name

Описание: BTS has officially announced their new album title, Arirang — a word that carries centuries of history, sorrow, resistance, and collective memory in Korea.

As a mexican fan, I wanted to understand what this title means and why BTS may have chosen it for their 3rd chapter

In this video, I explore academic research, Korean history, and BTS’s own recent experiences to better understand Arirang as a tradition, a symbol of survival, and a form of artistic resilience.

If you’ve been wondering what Arirang represents, how it connects to BTS’s separation, military service, silence, and return... then, this video is for you.
