- Mar 20, 2026They finally get to take everything they learned, everything they explored, and bring it all back to the group where it began. That’s the power of Arirang — seven different voices, but united again and stronger than ever.
- Mar 20, 2026Seven members attack the music with a ferocity that feels earned and personal. The album feels more often like seven individuals with real chemistry than one polished unit. The solo years gave each member a sharper creative identity, and RM’s instincts hold the whole thing together.

- Mar 20, 2026On Arirang, they’ve made an album that makes good on their status as the planet’s biggest pop phenomenon, and that’s more than enough.
