Jung Kook, Never Let Go [📷: Brent Faulkner/The Musical Hype; BIGHIT MUSIC; Clker-Free-Vector-Images, Królestwo Nauki, OpenClipart-Vectors, Pete Linforth, Tumisu from Pixabay]South Korean pop superstar Jung Kook shares his gratitude to his fans (BTS ARMY) in the fun and infectious single, “Never Let Go.”

If the handsome, talented Jung Kook makes nothing else clear in his single, “Never Let Go”, he’ll “Never let go, go, go, go, go, go.” Period.  The irresistible single from the BTS standout is sleekly produced, characterized by its dance beat.  Bak, Sim Fane, star boy, and Outtatown fabulously produced “Never Let Go” constructing a colorful accompaniment to fuel the pop star’s fire. The South Korean superstar co-wrote “Never Let Go” alongside the producers, Jesse Bluu, Melanie Joy Fontana, and Michel “Lindgren” Schulz. Lots of cooks in the kitchen but it works out well. 

Jung Kook, Never Let Go [📷: BIGHIT MUSIC]Jung Kook sings sublimely – always the case.  The melody lines are rhythmic and tuneful.  Thematically, he shares gratitude to his fans. “Oh, every day, I wonder if this all is just a dream,” he sings in the first verse, adding, “I tried to put it into words, but it don’t measure up / My pen and paper could never do quite enough.” In the second verse, he sings, “You were the light that led me to you.” Aww.  The lyrics not only show gratitude but also show love.  “Never Let Go,” could double as a love song – part of its charm.  Ultimately, it’s a simple but enjoyable, fun, and well-rounded pop song from Jung Kook. There’s no doubt the ARMY will eat this one up.
