Music Video Drop
BTS Jungkook’s track “Dreamers” was officially released on November 20th and premiered as an epic performance with Fahad Al Kubaisi at the FIFA opening ceremony in Qatar. The music video was also filmed in Qatar and the video also featured singer Fahad Al Kubaisi. The song celebrates the athletes who achieved the honor to play in the World Cup and tells them to never stop believing in themselves. The track also promotes healthy sportsmanship, respect, and positivity.
The music video showcased harmony and unity with multiple people happily waving their flags. Every BTS music video involves fan’s heading to Twitter to interpret any symbolism within the scenes and as usual, like every BTS music video, fans pointed out some symbolism. Jungkook’s music video used symbolism through animals in the video by adding CGI scenes of whale sharks in the music video pertaining to the fact that Qatar’s coasts have the largest congregation of whale sharks and this was beautifully portrayed in the music video.
In addition, whales also carry a lot of meaning within the BTS Army fandom adhering to one of BTS’s earlier songs “Whalien 52”. Another thing the fans noticed was that there were seven whale sharks in the music video which the fans pointed out represent the seven members of BTS.
