During the press release on November 2, Jungkook was asked some preliminary questions about his solo album debut ahead of its release, as reported by Newsen. The 26-year-old singer from BTS, who has debuted as a soloist outside of his famous group, fielded questions during his press release video, where he spoke about his solo album GOLDEN, and more.
The artist behind the Billboard toppers, SEVEN and 3D, explained that his decision to go for an all-English album was to take over the overseas music market. The artist continued by adding that he did his best to enunciate the English words correctly in each of his songs.
"As this album is an album prepared for the overseas music market, I chose all English songs. While recording, I decided to pronounce the songs in English. It was very difficult. Although it was difficult, I worked hard, but I’m so glad that the entire song came out well in the end.”
On top of that, Jungkook expressed his desire to experiment with various music genres, piquing the curiosity of his fans as they speculated about his future projects.
