The rumors of a possible collaboration started, and it all became official this Monday when BTS announced a remix coming out Friday.

In the remix Laxed – Siren Beat we can listen to Jungkook singing the catchy verses along Jason. The surprise comes when Suga‘s and J-Hope’s verses in Korean start, their lyrics questions love being a temporary feeling, giving a different meaning to the whole song. Besides the Korean lyrics they also changed their parts to be gender neutral. We’re talking about thoughtful kings here.
BTS has spent the whole week on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, playing games, talking about Dynamite, the Hot 100, a new album, Grammys and delivering amazing performances of their songs. Hopefully we can watch the group doing the challenge one more time, but on the show!
Who will be doing and redoing the TikTok challenge with the BTS ‘Savage’ remix?
