BTS once again showcases their unparalleled talent and charm with the vibrant atmosphere of "Permission to Dance." The song's gentle voice brings comfort, and the clear, refreshing performance further draws listeners in.
As the lyrics "We don't need permission to dance" suggest, "Permission to Dance" sends a message to everyone who has faced the walls of reality and had a tough day that "you can freely dance to your heart's content, without any permission."

"Listen to your Heart's Rhythm"
Listen to the rhythm of your heart... A message for all of us from BTS
"Permission to Dance" brings to mind the blue sky and vast ocean, free from any restrictions or limits. The lyrics flowing over the clear melody tap on the shoulder of everyone who has had a hard day, suggesting moving according to the rhythm of their heart.
The message of "Permission to Dance" is proactive and direct, encouraging everyone to listen to their heart's rhythm and dance freely, overcoming the tough situations and continuing life with a cheerful encouragement and a calm consolation that "we don't need permission to dance." BTS conveys courage to start anew and the energy to dance joyfully with lyrics like "we're just getting started," "live just like we're golden," and "the wait is over / the time is now so let's do it right."
This is vividly felt in the music video of "Permission to Dance." Amid the pandemic situation where we have no choice but to wear masks, BTS releases a purple balloon symbolizing 'hope' on a day in the future when COVID-19 has ended. As BTS dances energetically indoors and outdoors, people who find the purple balloon dance freely without any restrictions or constraints. In the final scene, where the seven members dance with the crowd, a special choreography appears. The 'special performance' utilizing international sign language provides a profound resonance worldwide. The music video, radiating bright and lovely vibes from the first scene to the last, injects a pleasant energy into the viewers.
