BTS member Jimin's solo track "Lie" from BTS' 2016 album "WINGS" made a surprise appearance in the newly released Amazon Prime series "Étoile." The show, which premiered on April 24, 2025, was created by the team of Amy Sherman-Palladino and Daniel Palladino, known for hit series like "The Marvellous Mrs. Maisel" (2017-2023) and "Gilmore Girls" (2000-2007).

In the very first episode, "Lie" plays during a tense moment involving lead character Cheyenne Toussaint, a star ballerina caught in a tug-of-war between two rival companies. The deal occurs while she's away on a fishing boat, and upon returning to the dock, she is suddenly arrested.

After her release, she storms into her company's studio, furious about being replaced.

Jimin's solo track Lie explores temptation, identity, and inner struggle

Released in 2016 as part of BTS' WINGS album, Jimin's solo track "Lie" is co-written by Bang Si-hyuk, DOCSKIM, Pdogg, SUMIN, and the singer himself. The song explores complex emotional themes, including internal conflict, deception, and identity. Musically and lyrically, "Lie" delves into the psychological struggle of being trapped in a falsehood, yearning to return to innocence but feeling unable to escape a constructed reality.

The song is often viewed as a continuation of "Boy Meets Evil," the album's intro track performed by j-hope. While "Boy Meets Evil" introduces the allure of temptation, "Lie" reflects the aftermath—being consumed by it. The lyrics hint at the dissonance between the image one presents to the world and the person within, a theme particularly relevant for artists under constant public scrutiny.

While some fans' interpretations suggest the song might touch on the vocalist's personal experiences with body image and the pressure to meet certain expectations, these interpretations remain speculative and unconfirmed. As with many tracks from "WINGS," "Lie" also contributes to the broader storytelling within BTS' HYYH (The Most Beautiful Moment in Life) universe, tying into the group's ongoing exploration of youth, temptation, and growth.
