"Once upon a time, many years from now... Music is forbidden across the spheres. On three different planets, three different bands defy the ban. DJ Kafrique on the ralien radio ship, unites them via Holoband. All the while they are hunted by the silencers," the text in the video reads before the song unfolds. The bands in question are BTS, Coldplay, and Supernova7.

As the interview began, Chris Martin spoke about how the collaboration between Coldplay and BTS came into being. He said, "I heard from BTS that they wanted to work on a song together." He also mentioned that his friend once used the phrase, 'My Universe' and he thought it was a 'cool' title. He said, "I thought it was a cool title, so I wrote it down and took it to my friend and said, 'Okay, let's do this demo for BTS'."

Previously, BTS and Coldplay recently met in New York. The K-pop group had traveled to the US as South Korea's Special Presidential Envoy for Future Generations and Culture at the 76th United Nations General Assembly. During the trip, BTS also gifted Coldplay with modernised hanboks.
