Jin’s ‘Happy’ Album: Every Track Ranked

With Jin finally feeling like it was the “right time” to release his first solo project, Happy is a radiant ode to explore his favorite genre in rock music as well as the gratitude he wants to share with fans.

While the BTS superstar’s participation in the album’s production is evident all the way through the final track “I will come to you,” a poignant ballad he wrote for ARMY fans, Jin also enlisted a cast of global collaborators to bring his Happy feelings to life. The electrifying main single “Running Wild” was co-produced by Gary Barlow of British boy band Take That, while the pre-release track “I’ll Be There” marks the latest team-up between BTS and “Lights Down Low” singer MAX. There’s also Taka and Toru of Japanese rock group ONE OK ROCK, Wendy of K-pop girl group Red Velvet and some of Jin’s longtime collaborators like PDOGG, all present so that Happy presents Jin as a versatile vocalist unafraid to experiment with new styles without losing his authenticity.

While listeners have been treated to solo songs by Jin for years — including his Billboard Hot 100 hit “The Astronaut” that had contributions from Coldplay — this tight, six-song EP finally gives fans a longer Jin listening experience while exploring universal themes like love, joy and personal growth.

From the singles “Running Wild” and “I’ll Be There” to new solo songs including “Heart on the Window” and “Another Level,” check out our ranking of every song from Jin’s debut solo album, Happy.
