“Yet To Come (Hyundai Ver.)” is a British rock remix version of BTS’ “Yet To Come (The Most Beautiful Moment),” which emphasizes the climax to deliver the cheering message for ‘Goal of the Century’ and anticipation toward the World Cup.
“As one of the most influential global artists in the world, BTS and their music greatly influence our society to develop in a positive direction. Through the World Cup campaign with BTS, we hope to create an opportunity for people all over the world to unite towards one goal of sustainability and cheer each other up,” said Jaehoon Chang, President and CEO of Hyundai Motor Company
The campaign song utilized the original lyrics and added lines such as “Now the vision is clear, the Goal of the Century is here”.

The campaign message is also conveyed in the one-minute preview of music video, which was pre-released today, showing BTS’ GOTC campaign song delivered all around the world by people singing it together in the stadiums. The film visualizes the world that Hyundai wishes to create through the 2022 FIFA World Cup™, expanding the solidarity of those united together in football to achieve the ‘Goal of the Century.’
