BTS' 'Life Goes On' video is a comforting anthem for these hard times

You're probably sick of hearing about how horrific this year was, but it's still going, unfortunately.

Luckily, K-pop monarchs BTS are here with a comforting new anthem for these times we're in, with the ongoing coronavirus pandemic prompting continuing lockdowns and social distancing measures. It's a time of continued isolation for many, staying home to protect others. And "Life Goes On," is a small reminder that while things are tough, we'll eventually get through it.

Taken from the superstar group's brand new album BE, the single's video shows the band hanging out in their PJs, playing video games, getting pizza — little uplifting home activities that have become somewhat daily to some of us — but also acknowledging a world that's pretty much come to a standstill outside.

It's the Friday shoulder-pat we kind of really needed while this thing keeps on. And with the ARMY already mobilising, perhaps we'll see another YouTube record?
