Map of the Soul: Persona is the sixth extended play by South Korean boy band BTS. It was released on April 12, 2019, via Big Hit Entertainment with "Boy with Luv" as its lead single. It is the follow-up to their 2018 albums Love Yourself: Tear and Love Yourself: Answer, and preceded the band's Love Yourself: Speak Yourself world tour. American singer Lauv appeared on a version of the track "Make It Right" that was released on October 18, 2019, as the album's second single.

The EP debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200, making BTS the first band since the Beatles to have three number-one albums in less than a year. The album also topped the UK, Scottish, New Zealand and Australian charts, making BTS the first Korean act to achieve a number-one album in each of these countries. Moreover, the album sold 3.2 million copies in one month, making it the best-selling album in South Korea, replacing the previous record-holder of 24 years.

Background and release

BTS first announced Map of the Soul: Persona on March 11, 2019, pre-orders began on March 13.[8] The EP marked a "new era" in the band's discography, after the completion of its Love Yourself series in 2018 with the release of the Love Yourself: Tear and Love Yourself: Answer albums.[9] It was set for release before the band embarked on the stadium extension of its Love Yourself world tour, named Love Yourself: Speak Yourself.[10]

On March 27, the group released the official "comeback trailer" for their album, named "Persona" which would later become the introduction to the extended play. The solo featured RM, the leader of BTS, and was described by Refinery29's Natalie Morin as "a colorful, dynamic song" and "nodding to the band's coming-of-age and self-discovery themes," which lyrics such as "Who am I? The question I had my whole life..." and "The flaws of mine that I know...The regrets that I don't even get sick of anymore."[11]

On March 31, Big Hit released the first two of four sets of concept photos labelled as Versions 1–4. "Version 1" showed "BTS playing around in a photo booth", with solo shots "show[ing] off each member in a variety of poses". "Version 2" highlighted "different sides, or personas, of each BTS member", as described by Billboard.[12] The final two versions were released on April 3. "Version 3" showed the band members posing with roses in rose-toned rooms. "Version 4" featured them posing with either grapes or strawberries while wearing elegant clothing and jewelry.[13]

On April 7, the band released the first music video teaser, revealing that American singer Halsey would be on the track and that the name of the title track would be named "Boy With Luv."[14] One day later, on April 8, the group released the tracklist and album cover of the album, unveiling the seven tracks of the EP.[15] On April 10, BTS released the final, second teaser of the song which featured a longer sample of the track. A new version of the B-side track "Make It Right", featuring American singer Lauv, was released on October 18 as the second single from the album.[16]

Composition and production

Map of the Soul: Persona has influences from various places. The album itself is based on the book Jung's Map of the Soul, about the theories Carl Jung created for psychology.[17]

The lead single, the Halsey collaboration "Boy with Luv," has been described as a funk pop song about happiness and love.[18] It serves as a parallel track to their earlier song "Boy in Luv".[19] In the video for "Persona" words such as "persona", "shadow", and "ego" were in it which directly references Carl Jung's theories.[20] It has been described as a song that is trying to answer the question of "Who am I?"[18]

"Mikrokosmos" and "Home" are songs dedicated to the fans, as they are the home that comforts BTS when they are tired and lonely.[18] The track "Mikrokosmos" is named after the Greek word for "microcosm", and the song's Korean name, 소우주 (romanized as so-u-ju), means the same.[21] BTS stated that "Mikrokosmos" would "paint the world through human interest".[19] "Mikrokosmos" co-writer Ryan Lawrie, who releases music as KOOLKID, has explained he wrote the song's signature guitar riff in his bedroom at 3 in the morning, and says that working with BTS "literally changed [his] life."[22]

"Make It Right" is a collaboration between BTS and Ed Sheeran,[19] and "Jamais Vu" is a unit song consisting of the members J-Hope, Jin, and Jungkook.[18] The EP also features references to Greek mythology, with a track called "Dionysus", the Greek god of grapes and wine, and their concept photos depicting a few of the members holding grapes.[17] It was described as a strong hip hop track with an intense beat, significant rock influence, vocoder effects and features Jin's rocking adlibs throughout the song.[18]

On March 27, the trailer for the album was released named "Persona".[25] The solo featured RM, the leader of BTS, and was described by Refinery29's Natalie Morin as "a colorful, dynamic song" and "nodding to the band's coming-of-age and self-discovery themes."[11]

Neil Z.

Douglas Greenwood of The Independent, however, gave the album a mixed review, pointing out that, "When they stand on their own two feet without the major co-stars, BTS are still fully confident of their own sound" but "the music, production-wise, falls a little by the wayside when it comes to breaking new ground."[48]
