Switched on Pop · BTS is back. But K Pop is not the same. · 21 Apr 2026 podcast

You hear that in the lyrics.

So again, that's what Cheon-num means.

It's their state of mind of being like the underdogs that they still seem to carry.

I know the focus has mostly been on the Korean roots and culture and heritage and all that.

But in the documentary, there's a discussion of what Arirang means or how the members are processing the meaning.

And one of the terms that gets mentioned is legacy in motion.

So and, you know, Arirang is powerful, not because it represents Korean people's sentiment and feeling.

You know, the song first, we don't even know the origin, like when it first started or who came up with it.

But, you know, we still sing it.

So it's the passage of the song from one generation to the next.

And I think that's how BTS is thinking about the meaning of Arirang, not necessarily the cultural, you know, connection.

but the survival of the song.

And they want to create Arirang with this album.

They want their songs to be something that they can consider as part of their legacy, that people can sing along to in years to come.

And I think that's the real meaning of Arirang.

if you think about it, not just about the Korean-ness, not just about the Korean Bruce and heritage and identity, but about where it fits in their legacy now that they're no longer these like teen boy bands.

They're, you know, they're in their thirties and they're thinking about the next step.

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to participate.
