BTS’ V to mark solo debut
Reports previously claimed that Kim Taehyung’s solo album will most likely released in September. However, nothing has been confirmed by their agency BigHit Music.

On collaborating with Min Hee Jin
On Wednesday, Soompi quoted Min Hee Jin saying in an interview, “I received an offer at the end of last year. I hesitated at first due to the schedule, but I was intrigued by V’s attitude and passion as well as his voice tone, which I wasn’t familiar with. This time, I want [listeners] to focus on the music. We prepared music that reflects V’s preferences while simultaneously is music that I want to recommend. Rather than a familiar style, we placed focus on music that we want to make and music that we can pull off well. We were terribly busy, but I think an interesting production emerged.”
V’s debut on solo album
Talking about the solo album, V shared, “I’m nervous but happy.” “It’s an album that captures my tastes. There will be abundant spectacles. I prepared while thinking that ARMY will be happy, so I hope you can anticipate it. I think you will be able to see a new side of solo artist V that is different from BTS’s V,” he added.
