Samsung Electronics, is set to release a new single called “Open Always Wins” in collaboration with K-Pop icons TOMORROW X TOGETHER (TXT), consisting of SOOBIN, YEONJUN, BEOMGYU, TAEHYUN and HUENINGKAI.

Set to an energetic guitar riff, “Open Always Wins” is an alternative rock track featuring the powerful vocals of TXT. Band members SOOBIN, YEONJUN, TAEHYUN and HUENINGKAI participated in penning the lyrics and based them on their own feelings and experience of openness.
“We are proud to have collaborated with our Galaxy Ambassadors, TOMORROW X TOGETHER, to create a brand anthem that encapsulates the spirit of openness authentically,” said Jamie Park, VP & Head of the Experience Marketing Group, Mobile eXperience Business at Samsung Electronics. “We hope it inspires listeners to embrace openness in their own lives, and the experiences and opportunities that come with it.”
The track is brought to life in a new music video that intertwines scenes of TXT preparing for a performance, with appearances from Team Samsung Galaxy athletes, celebrating their efforts and challenges across various sports.
The new single launches at 1PM (KST) today across multiple music platforms — including YouTube Music, Spotify, Melon, Genie, Bugs, Flo and Vibe — and the accompanying music video will be available to watch on Samsung’s official YouTube channel.
In conjunction with the music video release, the “Open Always Wins” dance challenge will kick off as well, encouraging fans worldwide to show their support and cheer for their favorite athletes.
“We’re excited to collaborate on this meaningful project with Samsung. We’ve infused our single with a sincere message of encouragement, rooting for everyone to bravely face challenges without being disheartened by failure,” said TOMORROW X TOGETHER. “We believe those who overcome and progress through obstacles are the true champions.”
