Weeks after their # 1 charting song Butter came out, BTS is back with a new single, Permission to Dance. Both the song and the MV have details that are worth checking out, so let's begin.


1) Don’t give up; you can do this


There's always something that's standing in the way

But if you don't let it faze ya

You'll know just how to break

Just keep the right vibe, yeah


We can use this as motivation whenever we are faced with a bad time. But with COVID-19 in mind, I think that it is a way of saying that this pandemic situation is just a rock in our lake of possibilities. And BTS is the perfect example. After their MOTS: ONE tour was canceled, they faced a hard time. But they found a way to deal with this situation by making music. Thanks to it, they are the biggest stars in 2021. So the moral of the story is that even when it is valid to feel defeated by the situation, you can't let it take everything from you. You need to get up and keep fighting.

2) COVID-19 pandemic has been rough for all age groups

In the MV, we can see some other characters apart from our main seven guys, from children to the elderly. We can see how during the last year, we have all been affected by the pandemic. I personally applaud this cause I have seen how this year of covid has emotionally affected the kids around me. Some kids have developed depression and social anxiety because of this situation, and parents don’t know how to deal with it cause it's new for them.

3) Yes, Koreans speak other languages too
For their #STOPASIANHATE statement, they said that some people asked them why Asians spoke English. They have proved that anyone can speak the language they desire, it doesn’t matter where you from. And actually, they have incredibly improved their English since DYNAMITE. They sing their verses in fluent English, and with each song, the complexity of the lyrics grows.



4) BTS = Vocals
BTS rap line shows off their versatility by taking over the song with their amazing vocals. They did it too for the BTS cover of Fix you, and their voices blended perfectly with the vocal line members' voices. Definitely, BTS is filled with talent.


5) Dance in sign language

In the MV, you can see all the members make a movement with their hands.


This means dance in sign language. It is beautiful how they find a way to make everyone feel included.

Some fans with deaf family members shared what this meant to them

 



Just wait a little more ARMY, this nightmare is almost over. We will see each other soon.
