As Jungkook's solo album's name suggests, fans are reminded of the time when the group's leader, Kim Namjoon, gave him the title of "golden maknae" because of his ability to excel in all fields. Fans are now proud that his first-ever full-fledged album is named GOLDEN and can't stop expressing their pride in him.
The upcoming album will consist of eleven songs, among which Seven and 3D have already been released in July and September, respectively, and have since created and broken many records.
The agency has also released the album's cover image, which is green with a golden/yellow border. The word "GOLDEN" is engraved in the middle of the cover picture, with the release date and time mentioned below it. Another layout is in light golden color blended beautifully with white and has golden border lines, following a similar pattern to the green layout.
The announcement of Jungkook's album has created a buzz among fans who can't stop sharing the achievements the album has already accomplished before its official release, referring to the streams and records of 3D and Seven.
