"I made it for the ARMYs who I am always grateful for"
'BTS' Jungkook specially celebrated the 9th anniversary of his debut. At 0 o'clock on the 13th, the new song 'My You' was released on BTS' official blog, YouTube, and Sound Cloud.

Jungkook expressed his heart through a letter. "When I think of (Army), I feel overwhelmed. Sometimes I thought, 'What if all of this disappeared, or what if it was a dream?'" he said.
He continued, "So I decided to write a song based on those contents. I filled the lyrics with pretty words for fear that the mood of the song would become too depressing."
He added, "It's a song only for you. I hope that the ARMYs who listen to it, including me who made the song, can be more hopeful, shine on their own, and be get strength."
He expressed his gratitude to the fans who have been by his side for 9 years. "I am always thankful to ARMYs. Let's make many better memories in the future. I love my ARMYs."
