In his BE-hind 'Full' Story, Jungkook shared: "I love 'Euphoria'... I think my voice at that time was somehow between my baby-like voice of the past and my current stable voice. I think my voice was somewhat natural and my feelings and my efforts were included [in the song]."

'Euphoria' is Jungkook's solo track from BTS' Love Yourself: Answer album. Co-written by DJ Swivel, Candace Nicole Sosa, Melanie Joy Fontana, ”hitman” Bang, Supreme Boi, Adora, and RM, and produced by DJ Swivel, the track was also used in the season 1 finale of the HBO series Euphoria

A viral hit from 2012, the 'Gangnam Style' has birthed endless memes and influenced pop culture around the world. The song also peaked at number 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, the highest Hot 100 chart position for an Asian act at that time. It stayed on the chart for over 26 weeks, setting a record for the longest-staying song on the Hot 100 chart by a Korean act - which BTS' 'Dynamite' eventually broke last April when it reached 32 consecutive weeks on the chart. Its iconic official music video was the first-ever video on YouTube to break 1 million views. It currently has over 4.2 million views.
