BTS has officially released the music video for “Merry Go Round,” adding another visual piece to the group’s ARIRANG era. The video became available on June 19 at 6 PM KST and is streaming exclusively through Spotify for Premium subscribers.
The release arrives after the BTS FESTA 2026, the annual celebration marking the group’s anniversary. Fans can now watch the visual through Spotify’s K-Pop ON! Hub or directly on BTS’ artist page.
The announcement was originally made on June 11, when Spotify confirmed: “‘Merry Go Round’ Spotify Music Video, only on Spotify. Stay tuned for @bts_bighit’s ‘Merry Go Round’ Spotify Music Video, coming to our K-Pop ON! Hub on June 19, 6PM KST!”
Now that the video has arrived, Spotify is once again directing fans to its dedicated K-Pop ON! platform, posting: “BTS’ ‘Merry Go Round’ Spotify Music Video is available now, only on Spotify.”
Where to Watch BTS’ “Merry Go Round” Music Video
The “Merry Go Round” music video is available exclusively through Spotify.
To watch it, users need:
- A Spotify Premium subscription
- Access to Spotify’s K-Pop ON! Hub or BTS artist page
- Availability within supported regions
Unlike traditional BTS music video releases that premiere simultaneously on YouTube and other platforms, “Merry Go Round” follows a streaming-first strategy designed specifically for Spotify’s video ecosystem.
The release marks the fourth official music video from BTS’ ARIRANG campaign. Earlier visuals for “Swim,” “2.0,” and “Hooligan” helped establish the album’s narrative and visual identity.
Momentum around ARIRANG has remained strong throughout June. BTS FESTA 2026 ran from June 4 through June 13 and featured a packed schedule that included BTS Family Photo, B Side Film, Normal Log, and the return of Run BTS! 2.0.
Interest in the album cycle also received another boost on June 12 when BTS released “Come Over” to commemorate their 13th anniversary. The track quickly entered the Top 20 of Spotify’s global rankings.
