RM must be in a celebratory mood these days. The leader of BTS (Bangtan Boys) tastes sweet success after releasing his debut solo album, "Indigo", on Friday, December 2.
Comprising of 10 tracks, the project stole the No. 1 spot on iTunes' Top Albums charts in at least 67 different countries, including Germany, France and Italy. The album's lead single "Wild Flower" ft. Youjeen, meanwhile, topped iTunes' Top Songs charts in at least 87 regions such as United States, Canada, France and Germany among others.
Another single from "Indigo", "Bicycle", peaked at No. 2 on the worldwide iTunes Song Chart and at No. 10 on the European iTunes song chart. On Billboard's Hot Trending Songs, RM claimed the entire top three with "No.2" ft. Park Ji-yoon, "Forg_tful" ft. Kim Sa-wol as well as "Lonely".
RM dropped the new album along with a music video for "Wild Flower". The visuals itself already surpassed 26 million views on YouTube per Monday, December 12.
In the Woogie Kim-directed clip, the South Korean sensation is seen watching a mesmerizing firework lighting up the night sky. The clip later cuts to the singer/rapper standing at the top of the hill at the end of the field. Before it concludes, the video shows RM hitting the stage at a packed stadium concert.
Of the song, he explained to The Atlantic, "I think of a field with tons of wildflowers that you don't even know the names of. You just hold the flowers and throw them into the sky, and they come down so suddenly, maybe after five seconds... I want to have a life like more of a wildflower."
