Jeon Jungkook (JUNG KOOK), the youngest member of the famous group BTS, is finally releasing an album aptly entitled GOLDEN.
JK’s solo album is appropriate because he is named the Golden Maknae of BTS because he is the youngest and has the ability to do almost anything, from singing to dancing to rapping, to boxing, to painting, to martial arts, to running, to writing poetry, and various activities.
Jungkook’s solo album, GOLDEN, is scheduled to be released on November 3, 2023, Friday at 1 PM (KST) or 12 AM (ET).

GOLDEN contains 11 tracks with two singles, Seven and 3D, already released.
At present, Seven is still charting at #2 on the Billboard Global 200 Chart and the Billboard 200 excl. US at #2 as well, on its 11th week.
Previously, Seven debuted simultaneously at #1 on three of the Billboard charts, which is an unprecedented achievement for a K-pop soloist.
Upon the release of 3D, it also gained #1 on iTunes in more than 105 regions around the world.
Seven by Jungkook featured Latto, while 3D featured Jack Harlow.
In one of his chats, Jungkook stated that he is a Korean but he would like to be
“the one and only singer who can cross back and forth between gayo and pop songs.”
He further expressed his desire to do all music genres.
“I want to conquer all genres and perhaps do Latin music, opera and classical singing.”
GOLDEN by Jungkook’s Tracklist?
The album will, of course, include the two pre-released songs and these predicted tracklist:
1. Seven
2. 3D
3. A K-pop song
4. A rock song
5. An R&B song
6. A classic song
7. A ballad
8. An EDM song
9. A Latin-vibe song
10. A rap song
11. A song dedicated to ARMY
The GOLDEN album will surely break records again because as of today, the singles, Seven and 3D already gained more than 900 million streams on Spotify alone.
JK’s album is expected to be the first K-pop solo album in history to hit the 1 billion mark prior to its actual release because of the singles, Seven and 3D.
You can pre-order Jungkook’s GOLDEN album starting October 4, 2023, Wednesday from 11 AM (KST) onwards.
