BTS’ Jung Kook Teases His Second Single “3D” Featuring Jack Harlow

BTS member Jung Kook is once again taking the music world by storm, as he prepares to release his second solo single “3D” featuring American rapper Jack Harlow. The teaser for the highly anticipated track was officially unveiled, generating a wave of excitement across the internet. Scheduled to drop this Friday, September twenty ninth two thousand twenty three, “3D” follows the massive success of his debut solo single “Seven” featuring Latto. Fans have been eagerly waiting to see what direction Jung Kook will take next, and with this new collaboration, expectations are at an all-time high.

The announcement of “3D” was made in dramatic fashion at the two thousand twenty three Global Citizen Festival held in New York City. Jung Kook headlined the event and delivered a powerful and charismatic performance that left the crowd in awe. As his set concluded and he walked off the stage, a mysterious teaser video appeared on the screen, flashing the words “Jung Kook” and “3D.” The clip, though brief, set the internet ablaze. Speculation ran wild as fans tried to decode the clues and guess what the project could be. Just hours later, the mystery was solved when BIGHIT MUSIC officially confirmed that “3D” was indeed Jung Kook’s next solo single and would feature the chart-topping American rapper Jack Harlow.

BIGHIT MUSIC shared more details about the track, describing it as a pop rhythm and blues song that creatively conveys emotions felt toward someone who feels out of reach. The concept is said to play with the idea of perspectives, using the metaphor of the first, second, and third dimensions to represent the complexities of desire and longing. The statement from the agency read, “Jung Kook’s second solo single, ‘3D featuring Jack Harlow,’ is a pop R and B track with clever expressions of feelings toward an unattainable person from the perspectives of first, second, and third dimensions. Get ready to meet an even more mature side of Jung Kook following ‘Seven featuring Latto.’”

The maturity and sophistication of this concept indicate Jung Kook’s continued artistic growth as a soloist. While “Seven” introduced fans to a breezy, romantic, and summer-ready tune, “3D” promises something deeper, more introspective, and sonically more layered. The inclusion of Jack Harlow adds another dimension no pun intended to the collaboration. Known for his laid-back charisma and lyrical finesse, Jack Harlow is a dominant force in contemporary hip-hop. His collaboration with Jung Kook not only expands the musical landscape of “3D” but also emphasizes the global reach and versatility of Jung Kook as a performer who can seamlessly blend genres and cultures.

Prior to the release of “3D,” Jung Kook hinted at his future plans on “Suchwita,” a popular online talk show hosted by fellow BTS member Suga. During his appearance, Jung Kook revealed that he planned to release another single and follow it up with a small mini album. This strategy mirrors how many international artists build momentum through staggered releases, allowing each project to shine while building anticipation for the next. Jung Kook’s willingness to take creative control and navigate his solo career at his own pace demonstrates a new era of independence for him as an artist.

The promotional rollout for “3D” has been masterfully executed. Alongside the teaser video shown at the Global Citizen Festival, BIGHIT MUSIC released a batch of concept images and video teasers in the days that followed. The visuals feature Jung Kook in striking outfits, exuding confidence and charisma. One standout look includes a hip-hop inspired ensemble set against a sleek white and silver backdrop, reinforcing the futuristic theme of the single. The cover art for “3D” also embraces this aesthetic, with a light blue gradient and bold typography displaying the track title and artists’ names. The design is clean yet impactful, setting the tone for what promises to be a modern, genre-blending hit.

The response from fans and the general public has been overwhelmingly positive. Social media platforms have been flooded with reactions, countdowns, fan theories, and celebratory posts. Hashtags related to “3D” quickly climbed global trending charts, and fan-edited videos of the teasers have racked up millions of views within hours of release. Jung Kook’s star power continues to shine as he dominates digital spaces, proving once again that he is not just a member of a globally successful group, but a powerhouse in his own right.

What makes “3D” even more exciting is its position in Jung Kook’s larger musical narrative. With just two solo songs, Jung Kook has already shown immense range. “Seven” was lighthearted and catchy, ideal for summer playlists. “3D,” in contrast, is shaping up to be more experimental and emotive. Together, these singles offer a glimpse into Jung Kook’s versatility and hint at the musical variety that his upcoming mini album may contain. Whether he is singing about youthful love, personal growth, or existential desire, Jung Kook brings sincerity, skill, and star quality to every performance.

This new phase of Jung Kook’s career is also emblematic of the broader evolution of BTS members as they pursue solo ventures. Each member has taken time to explore their own artistry, and Jung Kook’s journey is especially significant due to his position as the youngest member. Often called the “Golden Maknae,” a term that celebrates his all-around talent and endless potential, Jung Kook is now redefining what it means to be a solo artist in a post-group setting. He is not resting on the laurels of BTS’ massive success, but instead forging a path that is uniquely his.

In conclusion, “3D” is not just a song it is a milestone in Jung Kook’s solo career. With its imaginative concept, international collaboration, and strong promotional campaign, the single represents a bold step forward for the artist. The excitement leading up to its release reflects the immense love and support Jung Kook continues to receive from fans around the world. As we wait for “3D” to officially drop on September twenty ninth, one thing is certain Jung Kook is once again poised to make history, and the world is watching.

Soon after, BIGHIT MUSIC made it known that “3D” was a brand-new solo digital single featuring Jack Harlow. The agency wrote,

“Jung Kook’s second solo single, ‘3D (featuring Jack Harlow),’ is a pop R&B track with clever expressions of feelings toward an unattainable person from the perspectives of first, second, and third dimensions. Get ready to meet an even more mature side of Jung Kook following ‘Seven (featuring Latto).’”

Prior to this, Jungkook stated on Suga’s talk program “Suchwita” that he intended to release “one more single, and then… a small mini album later” following the release of his successful solo debut song “Seven” in July.
