BTS have released the comeback trailer for Suga’s new song Shadow adding to the Army’s excitement for the K-pop group’s new album.
Shadow is one of the first singles to be teased ahead of Map of the Soul: 7, which is set to arrive in February.
Suga takes centre stage in the visuals for his solo track, which sees him lying on a floor of neon blue panels, and being chased through a hotel corridor by a group of masked men. He later takes to the stage to perform in front of fans before making his way through the crowd.
Lyrics include: ‘I wanna be a rap star, I wanna be the top. I wanna be a rockstar.
‘I want to be rich, I want to be the king. I wanna go win… I got a big dream, I wondered everyday how far I’d go, I came to my senses and I find myself here.’
It later takes more of a darker turn as Suga raps: ‘I’m afraid, flying high is terrifying, No one told me. How lonely it is up here, I can leap in the air but also plunge, Now I know running away could be an option too.’
Intense.
