RM's "Persona" Music Video Surpasses 100 Million Views After 5 Years

RM of BTS has achieved a remarkable feat with a 5-year-old video.

On March 22, Big Hit Music announced that the music video for RM's solo track "Intro: Persona" from BTS's 6th mini album "Map of the Soul: Persona" surpassed 100 million views on YouTube at around 6 PM the previous day.

  • RM's "Intro: Persona" is the first music video from BTS's "Map of the Soul: Persona" era to reach 100 million views.
  • It is the 33rd music video by BTS to surpass 100 million views.
  • BTS is currently the most-viewed artist on YouTube, with over 22 billion total views.

This is a significant milestone, especially considering the video's age.

RM released the song in 2019. The video itself is reminiscent of a science fiction movie, utilizing 2D graphic animation and 3D scanning to create a digital humanoid.

The video captivates viewers with its diverse graphic techniques.

RM's performance is complemented by dynamic camera angles and motion capture technology, which brings his larger-than-life persona to life.

"Intro: Persona" samples the intro track beat from BTS's debut album "2 Cool 4 Skool."

It features guitar sounds, trap genre hip-hop rhythms, and organ.

Meanwhile, RM and his fellow BTS members are currently fulfilling their mandatory military service.

They are expected to resume full group activities in the second half of 2025.
