Thanks for watching with us! You should check out a video that includes Chris Martin's speech in Argentina. It's Jin's 1st performance of Astronaut and last performance before he goes into the military. It's beautiful and really special. https://youtu.be/bSUJ92dh0gU

Coldplay help Jin write this for him but it is kind like a goodbye song since he is going to the military I think at the end of this month and he performed the song with Jin at his concert last night the video of up of him performing you should check it out and also check out the speech Coldplay did before Jin came out bey it was an emotional speech for the fans to hear

The awkwardness you see is his “alien” persona I think. He went to university for theatre, and it’s always his eyes, he knew exactly how to portray it. He crashed on earth and a family took him in, you see he doesn’t know how to show affection like people on earth, his clothes don’t fit right, he doesn’t get earth norms and people keep bumping into him trying to get him to stop and not leave and once his space ship was fixed he was gonna leave, but decided that family was his home after all.. but towards the end when he realizes, he smiles :) also the lil girl with the purple helmet is suppose to represent ARMY I think. This was his gift before he goes away a while, not saying goodbye but see you later 💜

Wow. That's heartbreaking. A powerful tribute. I appreciate the context.

That is absolutely beautiful.

This is a beautiful song and a great debut, it's a single album so it will be just this song on the album, and there's a physical with a beautiful cover and some photos/posters included. That's a popular thing in SK. This song was an 'I love you and goodbye for now' type song of Jin, Chris Martin revealed how the song came about during their concert last night. Very emotional. Chris and Jin seem to have hit it off the most during their last song together as a group in 'My Universe' so this new single is no surprise for any of us, Jins been a fan forever. Chris Martin didn't sing the main chorus but you can hear a high pitched and then a low pitched smaller background vocal and that's him and his son Moses singing along with Jin, but Jin did indeed sing all the main lyrics. Jin usually sings higher notes but he chose a soothing deeper voice for this track and I love it. He also wrote the korean lyrics which are beautiful. The storyline seems to be that Jin was an alien who crashed on earth, similar to how he was a college kid who wanted to be an actor but BH found him walking down the street and he was suddenly in a hip hop band. Jin is emotionless for most of the vid, similar to how some members said Jin used to be very different at the start of the group. But as Jin spent time with the little girl, he started to smile more- similar to how irl Jin grew to love bts and the fans, just as he grew to love and make memories with the little girl- teaching her to ride a bike and etc just as he became a singer, dancer, writer when he never had before- and when the time came to leave (the spaceship being repaired) Jin chose to stay on earth with his new family (the last word he filled in on the crossword is family), he also has braille on his neck that spells "Army". Very beautiful video, the song is on loop.

It was on repeat for me this morning. Chorus hits hard!

Idk if Chris Martin is singing maybe background. But he is the news anchor in the MV 😂

I listened to the song about 20 times when it first came out, the chorus hits hard and it has such an uplifting vibe. I love this concept for Jin too, it really suits him. The song, the MV, and the performance with Coldplay is a beautiful gift and send off. Made me feel really grateful to be living alongside BTS!

Like others said this was his goodbye message for Army, he called Chris Martin and said he needed a song that says goodbye to everybody for a while. In the video he is from a different planet and finds a family on earth (the little girl reperesents Army, but I think possibly BTS as well). He has to go back to his home planet for a while to do his duty but in the end decides to stay on Earth were his loved ones are. He teaches the Army girl how to ride a bike on her own which made me cry the first time. And in his live later he explained that he had planned to leave months ago already because he didn't want to go to the military in winter but the others convinced him to stay until the Busan concert for Army, which made me cry a second time. Like I said before his live was apparently very honest. The final subs are not up yet but from what I've read from translators you can really get a good picture about their original plans and thought processes, now.

Jin is The Little Prince. He's definitely Our Prince.
