With ‘Golden,’ the November 3-released debut solo album of BTS star Jung Kook, dominating digital and streaming outlets, industry analysts are already predicting the project will make a handsome opening in the top 5 of next week’s Billboard 200.

To help it reach even higher heights on the coveted count, the 26-year-old is pounding the pavement in its support – most recently spotted at ‘The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.’

On hand to act as Monday night’s lead interview (November 6), Jung Kook also rocked the late nite talk series with a live performance of his latest single ‘Standing Next to You.’

Hop inside to see how he fared.

With a history-making Hot 100 #1 hit, ‘Seven‘ (featuring Latto), and top 5 smash, ‘3D‘ (featuring Jack Harlow), to his credit, BTS star Jung Kook came out the gate swinging for his debut solo era.

A dynamic setup for his first album by his lonesome, the November 3-dropped ‘Golden,’ Jung is undoubtedly hoping the project will see a similarly historic response on the Billboard 200 by the end of its inaugural sales tracking week.

In a bid to aid its success narrative, the 26-year-old K-Pop star has gifted another song from the 11-track studio effort the video treatment: the Watt & Cirkut-produced ‘Standing Next to You.’ Donning a military jacket with metallic embellishments and tassels in the clip, he pays subtle homage to Michael Jackson in the choreography-laden visual – even emulating some of the the King of Pop’s signature dance moves.
