Jin of BTS officially released the full version of his hit solo track "Super Tuna" on Friday, much to the delight of fans worldwide. With the addition of a second verse, the song has once again captivated listeners, following its initial release in a shorter format in 2021.
Jin first showcased the full version during BTS’s annual festival, “2024 Festa,” in June, where fans reacted with enthusiasm. Shortly thereafter, he dropped it as a digital single, accompanied by a special video filmed in North Gyeongsang Province, highlighting the song's playful energy in a picturesque setting.
A day before the release, Jin had teased fans on Weverse, the fandom platform, hinting at the new version of "Super Tuna." The anticipation from his global fanbase, known as ARMY, quickly built up, leading to significant achievements on various music charts soon after its release.
The original version of "Super Tuna" was first revealed in 2021 as a special video for Jin’s birthday, featuring just one verse. Despite its brief length, the video became a viral sensation, accumulating 100 million views on YouTube as of last month. The song's infectious melody and lighthearted theme resonated widely with fans.
Upon the full version’s release, "Super Tuna" skyrocketed to the top of the iTunes Top Songs Chart in 57 regions and claimed the No. 1 spot on Billboard’s World Digital Song Sales Chart. These accomplishments followed Jin’s well-received performance at the 2024 Festa, further amplifying the song's popularity.
"Super Tuna" reflects Jin’s passion for fishing, a hobby he often shares with fans. The song’s humorous lyrics about fishing and its upbeat rhythm have endeared it to audiences of all ages. The new version of the song, enriched with additional sounds and melodies, showcases Jin’s creativity and playful approach to music.
Commenting on the success of "Super Tuna," Jin expressed his gratitude, saying, "I wanted to bring joy to the fans," and added, "I never imagined the song would become so loved." His humility and sincerity have further endeared him to his fans.
Beyond its catchy tune, "Super Tuna" serves as another testament to Jin’s artistic range and musical experimentation. Fans around the world eagerly await Jin’s next musical ventures, confident that he will continue to surprise and delight.
