This is not a drill, BTS fans! The group's youngest member, Jungkook, has officially launched his solo era. While the maknae has released numerous singles as gifts to fans through the years and collaborations like "Left and Right" with Charlie Puth and his World Cup anthem, "Dreamers," with Fahad Al Kubaisi, the July 14 release of "Seven" marks the start of his career as a bonafide solo artist.
Fans have been waiting for this single since July 6, when Big Hit Music started rolling out Jungkook's promotional content for "Seven," including a short film and concept photos featuring the star showing off his physique in various outfits (one - loose-fitting jeans paired with an oversized blazer - even gives a peek at his abs). On July 7, it was also revealed that Jungkook's first performance of "Seven" is already planned.

BTS’ Jung Kook has released a new music video for his solo single, “Dreamers,” which is part of the 2022 World Cup soundtrack.
Jung Kook debuted the song at the opening ceremony for the World Cup in Qatar last week. The new video for the song — which was produced by RedOne and features Qatari singer Fahad Al Kubaisi — is, to put it mildly, very much a shiny advertisement for the controversial host nation, with Jung Kook exploring various parts of the country.
Additionally, the “Dreamers” video is only available to watch...

BTS's Jungkook debuted his new single for the 2022 FIFA World Cup, "Dreamers," at midnight last night before giving a rousing live performance at the World Cup opening ceremony.
"Dreamers" is a high-energy anthem about believing in oneself imbued with emotion, much like the FIFA World Cup songs that came before it, like "Waka Waka" by Shakira, "The Time of Our Lives" by Il Divo and Toni Braxton, and "La Copa de la Vida (The Cup of Life)" by Ricky Martin.
While the official track released on Spotify only features Jungkook singing lead vocals, Qatari singer Fahad Al Kubaisi joined Jungkook during the live performance at the World Cup opening ceremony to sing a verse in Arabic, with both stars surrounded by dancers. Shortly after the performance, Fahad posted on Twitter about the experience, writing, "I can't express my gratitude and happiness for my participation in the biggest event of all...

Opening ceremonies to major sporting events are, in the robust opinion of a committed sports fan, a sop to the people who love the drama and spectacle of international commingling, but have little interest in the games being played.
At the Olympics, they have become an enormous, gaudy art form in their own right – from the jaw-dropping show at Beijing’s Bird’s Nest to the cringe-inducing fantasia of London 2012 – but they’ve never been such a big part of World Cups. Perhaps the only lasting memory of an opening ceremony is Diana Ross missing, with the goal at her mercy, during the 1994 curtain-raising bonanza. On Saturday, Gianni Infantino, the polyglot head of FIFA, set the tone for this tournament’s opening.
Sat at a press conference, an array of sponsored items laid out before him like The Generation Game conveyor belt, Infantino gave an impassioned defence of the tournament.
