Wings is the second Korean and fourth overall studio album by South Korean boy band BTS. The album was released on October 10, 2016, by Big Hit Entertainment. It is available in four versions and contains fifteen tracks, with "Blood Sweat & Tears" serving as its lead single.[2] Heavily influenced by Hermann Hesse's coming of age novel, Demian, the concept album thematically deals with temptation and growth. It was later reissued as a repackage album, titled You Never Walk Alone, on February 13, 2017,[3] a continuation of the canon for Wings. Three new songs were added to the track listing, with "Spring Day" and "Not Today" promoted as the lead singles.

Both albums received positive reviews from critics. They sold a combined 1.8 million physical copies worldwide,[4] the group's highest record sales at the time.[5] This earned BTS the title of "million sellers" due to the outstanding financial reception.[6] According to Gaon Chart, Wings was the best-selling album of 2016 in Korea.[7]

Background and release

[edit]

On August 31, 2016 Big Hit Entertainment released a statement announcing BTS's third global official fan club concert where they would perform new material for the first time.[8][9] From September 4 to 13 Big Hit Entertainment released a series of short films for each member to promote the upcoming album.[10][11] The short films started with Jungkook's "Begin",[12][13] followed by Jimin's "Lie",[14] V's "Stigma",[15] Suga's "First Love",[16] RM's "Reflection",[17][18] J-Hope's "Mama",[19][20] and ended with Jin's "Awake".[21]

Wings

[edit]

On September 25, BTS released a comeback trailer on YouTube,[22] featuring member J-Hope rapping solo. The video depicted a boy's mind meeting a devil called 'temptation'.[23][24] From September 28 to October 4 Big Hit Entertainment released concept photos of the album[25][26][27][28] on official Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook pages revealing the album will be available in four physical versions designated: W, I, N and G.[29] The album's track list was then released on October 5 on the official website and Twitter account.[10][30] A music video teaser[31] was also released on October 7 on YouTube, indicating "Blood Sweat & Tears" would be the lead single. Big Hit Entertainment lastly revealed the design and details of the physical album which would include a photobook, polaroid, mini standee and poster.[32]

During the press conference for the release of the album, leader RM explained, "The harder a temptation is to resist, the more you think about it and vacillate. That uncertainty is part of the process of growing. 'Blood Sweat & Tears' is a song that shows how one thinks, chooses, and grows."[33] Symbolism such as the 'wings' were representations of growth, with Suga adding, "The song relays an optimistic determination to use our wings to go far, even if we are met with temptations in life."[33] Jungkook explained during the group's preview show on V Live, that his solo track, "Begin", was about his journey to Seoul and meeting the BTS members.[11] V described his song, "Stigma", as "a song under the neo-soul genre". J-Hope described his song, "MAMA", as unforgettable, as it was about his childhood emotions for his mother. "Awake" was Jin's first experience in co-composition.[34] RM revealed the 14th track, "Two! Three! (Still Wishing For Better Days)" ("둘! 셋! (그래도 좋은 날이 더 많기를)") was the first official fan song.[34] The album credits[35] Kevin Moore as co-writer and co-producer.

Wings combined the themes of youth presented in their previous "youth series" with temptation and adversity and, for the first time as a major group effort, included seven solo tracks that demonstrated each member's individual strengths as independent musicians.[36]

You Never Walk Alone

[edit]

On November 18, 2016 Big Hit Entertainment released a teaser trailer[37] for an upcoming concert tour of Wings[38] while revealing the ticketing schedule[39] with ticket sales starting on December 21. They later announced BTS would be back[40] on February 13, 2017[41] with part two of Wings. On February 2 and 3 concept photos[42][43] were released on the group's official Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter accounts, indicating that the physical album would be available in two versions, designated 'Left' and 'Right'. The track list[44] was then released on BTS' official homepage and Twitter account on February 7, revealing the track "Outro: Wings" as a remake from their previous album. A music video teaser[45] was released on YouTube on February 10 hinting at the new lead single, "Spring Day". They also released the design and details of the physical album, accompanied by a photobook, photocard, mini standee, and poster.[46] On February 11, the second music video teaser was released on YouTube, which indicated that "Not Today" was another single from the album.[47]

You Never Walk Alone is a continuation of Wings and contains stories that were not included in the previous album.[41][48] The album also contains messages of hope and consolation meant to heal the youth of the generation.[49][50]

"Blood Sweat & Tears" then broke the record for fastest K-pop music video to reach 10 million views.[77] Billboard stated that it was the most-viewed K-pop video in America in the month of October 2016.[78][79]

Shortly after release, the group achieved an 'all-kill', simultaneously holding the No. 1 position on all major South Korean music charts.[80][81][82][83][84] The album's lead single, "Blood Sweat & Tears", became the group's first domestic No. 1 hit on Gaon Digital Chart.[85][86][87][88] All 15 songs on the album charted in the top 50 of the Gaon Digital Chart, garnering over one million digital downloads and over eight million streams.[89][90][91][92] Thirteen of the album's songs charted on Billboard World Digital Songs with the lead single debuted at No. 1 on its first week.[93]

You Never Walk Alone

[edit]

You Never Walk Alone received a record-breaking pre-order of over 700,000 physical copies, the highest pre-order record for the first half of 2017.[102] The "Spring Day" music video broke the record set by "Blood Sweat & Tears" for the fastest K-pop music video to reach 10 million views,[103] which was then broken by the music video for "Not Today".[104] BTS also set a record for shortest time between consecutive concerts at the large Gocheok Sky Dome venue for 2017 BTS Live Trilogy Episode III: The Wings Tour in Seoul. Tickets for both domestic and international concerts on the tour sold out within minutes.[105][106][107]

Within an hour of its midnight release, lead single "Spring Day" reached the top spot on eight online music streaming sites, including Melon, Mnet, Genie and Naver Music. The high demand caused an error on Melon where it temporarily became inaccessible.[108][109] It earned BTS four first-place trophies on local music program awards.[110] "Spring Day" debuted at No. 15 on the Billboard Bubbling Under Hot 100 and No. 1 on the Billboard World Digital Songs, selling 14,000 digital downloads. Together with "Not Today", "Outro: Wings" and "A Supplementary Story: You Never Walk Alone", the four new tracks held the top four slots on the World Digital Songs chart[111] making BTS the first K-pop act to do so.[112] "Not Today" surpassed "Spring Day" in the following week, rising up the chart to No. 1 and recording BTS' fourth entry as chart-toppers on the ranking.[113]

The album You Never Walk Alone debuted at No. 61 on the Billboard 200, extending BTS' record as the K-pop act with the most entries on the chart.[112] This eventually led to their 6th entry on the chart, unique for a Korean artist at the time.[114] The album debuted at No. 1 on Billboard World Albums, giving BTS their third chart-topper album on that ranking.[112] Upon its release in China, the album sold 144,400 in the first week on QQ Music, and charted at No. 1 on the best-selling albums of the week.[115] In South Korea, the album charted at No. 1 on Gaon Weekly Chart with 373,750 albums sold in one week, earning the band their 7th weekly chart-topper and breaking the record set by Wings.[110][116] It also topped February Gaon Monthly Chart, the highest physical sales for the first half of 2017.[117]

Critical reception

[edit]

"With Wings, the 2016 follow-up to BTS’ spectacular breakthrough The Most Beautiful Moment in Life, the group channeled their ambitions for global domination, proving that they could remain true to their hip-hop roots while exploring new soundscapes.

 — Joshua Calixto from Billboard[118]

Wings received mostly positive reviews from critics, for tackling social issues such as mental health and female empowerment. Jeff Benjamin of Fuse wrote, "The rising K-pop phenoms' new album is doing it right by letting their seven members spread their artistic wings and solidifying their individual identities—all while keeping the band identity strong as ever."[11] Fuse listed Wings at No. 8 on their list of the 20 Best Albums of 2016, praising the album's "vulnerable and honest song material" and diverse tracks.[121] The album also topped Billboard's "10 Best K-Pop Albums 2016" list. Billboard branded the album an "accomplishment all its own", praising BTS' involvement in co-writing and producing and the compositional choice to allow each member a solo song reflecting individual musical styles, showing that "they can compete with top pop acts." The music chart also described BTS' music as "forward-thinking", referring to the tropical house and EDM sounds on the album and lyrics that discussed the darker side of mental health issues.[122]

Rolling Stone's Nick Murray named Wings "one of the most conceptually and sonically ambitious pop albums of 2016."[123]Billboard's Tamar Herman wrote an article on the repackaged album You Never Walk Alone, in which she described the single "Spring Day" as an "alt hip hop song infused with rock instrumentals and EDM synths" combining the rap elements for which BTS has become known with "dreamy vocals and yearning lyrics." Herman called "Not Today" the dual single counterpart to "Spring Day", a power anthem for "all the underdogs in the world."[57] "Spring Day" ranked No. 1 on Dazed Digital's "20 Best K-Pop Songs of 2017" list, and the magazine described the song as "an intelligent, compelling and elegantly restrained study of loss and longing" that "deliberately avoids cliché pomp and drama".[124] Wings was included in Billboard's list of "The 25 Greatest K-Pop Albums of the 2010s".[118]
