In spite of thinking the chorus was too high for him, the video opened with Jungkook hard at work in the studio and singing "Dreamers" with ease.

He took a seat for a candid chat in between takes and revealed that his firm had texted him to let him know that he would be singing the World Cup's opening song.
Surprisingly, he admitted that he had originally believed he would perform alongside the other BTS members. He didn't know it was a solo project until afterward, when he "came out in cold sweat."
When he realised it was just him, he comically thought he would only be recording the song and not singing it live.
The group's maknae performed flawlessly and gratefully accepted the honour of joining the list of outstanding musicians who have contributed songs for the World Cup.

His team members showered their maknae with support even though they couldn't be there in person to cheer him on.
