BTS’ Jung Kook Shares ‘Golden’ Concept Photos Ahead of Album Release
The rollout for Jung Kook‘s debut solo album, Golden, continues! The BTS vocalist’s label, BIGHIT Music, released a trio of concepts for the album on the group’s respective social media pages, much to ARMY’s delight.
The final set of concept photos, titled “SUBSTANCE,” arrived Saturday and features the BTS member posing against a graffiti backdrop with numbers and words that are special to him, such as 0613 (BTS’ anniversary date), ’97 (his birth year) and the logo for BTS ARMY. The other two photos feature the singer striking a sultry pose in between two more graffiti walls and peacefully shutting his eyes, with his rings and piercings on full display.
The previous two concept photos — “SHINE” and “SOLID” — arrived throughout last week and highlighted the K-pop star’s outward facing personality seen by others and the side of himself that fans do not get to see when he is alone. The “SHINE” images show Jung Kook outfitted in a black suit jacket and jeans with his multiple silver chains and piercings, while the “SOLID” photos show the singer stripped back in casual clothes, like plain white tanks, crewneck sweaters and sweatpants.
Golden is set to arrive Nov. 3. The set has been proceeded by previous singles “Seven feat. Latto” and “3D feat. Jack Harlow.” The tracks peaked at Nos. 1 and 5 on the all-genre Billboard Hot 100 chart, respectively. Leading up to the album release, Jung Kook is set to feature on The Kid LAROI’s forthcoming single “Too Much” alongside Central Cee on Oct. 20. Following the release of Golden, Jung Kook will perform a special album concert in Seoul to celebrate the LP’s release on Nov. 20.
