Big Hit Entertainment Announces the New Album „BE” from

BTS
Seoul, South Korea (28th September 2020 – Big Hit Entertainment is thrilled to
announce the release of the latest album from BTS. „BE” will be available worldwide
on November 20.

BE is the fifth Korean-language studio album by South Korean boy band BTS.


Created in response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, BE is inspired by the
thoughts and feelings that BTS were experiencing during the conception of the
project. The record sees the band members contributing to various aspects of the
album including songwriting, development, production, visual aspects, and direction.
BE is primarily a pop record, encompassing hip hop, EDM, and disco genres with
elements of synth-pop, neo soul, funk and R&B. Described by BTS as "a letter of
hope", BE touches upon themes of comfort, loneliness, anxiety, depression,
frustration, restlessness, sadness, hope, connection, and joy. BE received generally
positive reviews from music critics; most of them praised the album's authenticity
while a few also found it unadventurous. At Metacritic, which assigns
a normalised rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album has an
average score of 81 based on 10 reviews, indicating universal acclaim.
The album can be pre-ordered on WeVerse Shop Global, Amazon and Kpopmart.
