Congartaulations Jin!
Super Tuna is a trot song about fishing that was released by Jin on his birthday on December 4, 2021. Later, on October 21, 2022, it was officially released along with a performance video.
In an interview, the BTS member dished on the story behind the playful track and its performance. He said that all he wanted to do was go to the beach with a rough composition in mind, and that’s how the video for was created. He further added that he wanted to showcase his love for fishing through this song.
However, to Jin, Super Tuna is still as ‘embarrassing’ as it could get. On multiple occasions, the singer mentioned how this song is the opposite of the high-quality music BTS puts out. So he felt a little ‘awkward’ about the song going viral.
He said that wanted Super Tuna to be solely known to the ARMY community. Needless to say, that didn’t work out quite well, when the performance video exceeded 100 million views, demonstrating the power he holds as a global K-pop star.
