On February 13, 2017, Spring Day was made available as the first single of You Never Walk Alone. It is a reissue album of BTS’ second Korean studio album Wings, which arrived in 2016.
Born from the iconic duo RM and SUGA’s incredible songwriting skills, Spring Day is considered one of the most powerful songs by BTS, and it is still a favorite among ARMYs.
The heartbreaking lyrics pay tribute to the Seoul Ferry Tragedy victims, bidding them a last goodbye. Combined with each member’s unique voice and a somber melody, it is still one of the most listened songs by fans across the globe. Having won the Song of the Year at the 9th MelOn Music Awards, Spring Day is the perfect example of BTS’ flawless and powerful discography.
