Although the group loves all their fans, Pied Piper was a sassy approach to deliver a message through a track. Coming from their album, Love Yourself: Her, the song uses the 'Pied Piper' story as a metaphor to encourage fans to strike a balance between their support and their responsibilities in real life.

“a year or two flashes by. This song is a reward I give you”

To imitate obsession, the song intentionally uses a minor key and a repetitive beat. The septet acknowledges their impact, understands that they rely on it, and asks fans to stay positive.


4) Heartbeat
