About the song “Euphoria”
“Euphoria” has a light, uplifting melody with a touch of pop EDM. At its core, the song is about love, affection, and the happiness you feel when you’re with someone you cherish.
You can see this clearly through the friendship between the seven BTS members in the music video. The track also serves as the intro, titled Theme of LOVE YOURSELF 起 Wonder, and acts as a gateway to the BTS Universe storyline (HYYH), which runs through the Love Yourself trilogy: Her, Tear, and Answer.
According to popular ARMY theories and the webtoon The Most Beautiful Moment in Life pt.0: Save Me, “Euphoria” connects to Jin’s storyline as a time traveler trying to save his friends. From this perspective, the song isn’t just about happiness with loved ones, but also about beautiful moments that feel fragile and could disappear at any time, just like the tense opening scenes of the music video.
Linguistically, “euphoria” means a feeling of happiness that’s intense but temporary. In psychology, the term is often used to describe a manic phase of joy before an eventual emotional drop. This idea fits perfectly with the song, which captures joyful moments shared among the members while subtly asking for that happiness to stay forever, even if only in a dream: “You are the cause of my Euphoria”.
Jungkook performing “Euphoria” on the Love Yourself tour
The live performance of “Euphoria” feels almost the opposite of its deeper, bittersweet storytelling. Sung by BTS’s maknae, the stage itself is anything but ordinary.
Jungkook famously performs the song while flying above the crowd during the Love Yourself world tour. Major venues like Wembley Stadium, the Rose Bowl, and Tokyo Dome were specially transformed so he could soar across the stadium, creating an unforgettable visual moment for fans.
According to Rolling Stone, Jungkook has personally said that “Euphoria” is one of his favorite BTS songs. For him, it represents a transitional phase between boyhood and adulthood that he experienced firsthand during the recording process.
He also mentioned changes in his voice at the time, since he was only 20 years old when the song was released. That’s part of what makes “Euphoria” feel especially personal and meaningful to him.
So, that’s a closer look at the lyrics of “Euphoria” and the story behind it. Now the big question is: what song will Jungkook perform at BTS’s 2026 concert? Stay tuned for the latest updates!
