About this song
The song adopts the big us-against-the-world sentiment common in many 2000s pop songs, and it sits over a dramatic jazz-funk and disco-pop instrumental with a retro romantic feel. The music video is dominated by performance and strenuous choreography that recalls Michael Jackson, set in abandoned, warm golden-toned scenery, and Ukrainian model Pasha Harulia plays Jung Kook's love interest.
What it's about
The lyrics express the strong feelings the narrator has for a loved one, drawn from simply standing side by side with them. Small nods in the lyrics seem to reference Jung Kook's past solo songs and some earlier BTS projects.
