This record went like this:

The Beatles -> Michael Jackson -> Adele -> BTS

If BTS was to break this record, Black Swan had to be the one. I recommend to those that haven't heard it to give it a try and also listen to the orchestral version.

Black Swan tells the story of an artist, who fears the death of their passion for music. The moment when music no longer touches B

TSs hearts or stirs their passion is the moment when the specter of that their most painful first death appears. This song is truly haunting and beautiful, well deserved.
