Background and release

On January 4, 2026, BigHit Music announced BTS's comeback after a four-year hiatus during which they completed their mandatory military service and released solo work.[1][2] The title of the album, Arirang, was revealed on January 15, referencing the Korean folk song of the same name.[3][4] On March 3, BTS revealed the album's track listing and production credits, with "Normal" revealed as the album's ninth track.[5][6] The song was included as the B-side of the Target-exclusive tiny vinyl release for the album's lead single "Swim".[7] A Korean version of "Normal" was included as a bonus track on a special-edition vinyl version of Arirang, released on June 12, 2026, to commemorate the group's 13 year anniversary.[8] On July 13, 2026, it was reported by Billboard that "Normal" would be promoted to US pop radio on July 27 as the album's second single.[9] The group published teasers for the song's single release in the July 13 and 14 issues of San Francisco Chronicle and New York Post, respectively, with the headline "BTS Seen in Bathroom Amid Mysterious Late-Night Gathering" accompanied by an image of the group standing at urinals in a bathroom.[10] Following these teasers, Big Hit Music announced that the music video for "Normal" would be released on July 17, 2026 exclusively on Spotify, followed by a YouTube release on July 19.[11]
