At first, I was hesitant because of the schedule, but V's attitude and päṩṩion, as well as his unfamiliar timbre, were interesting. I prepared music that reflects V's taste and at the same time I want to suggest. Rather than a familiar style, we focused on the music we want to do and the music we can digest well. I was busy without blinking my eyes, but it seems like an interesting work has come out.”
Meanwhile, in response to his upcoming solo album release, V first shared: “This is an album with my taste intact. There will be plenty to see. I prepared it thinking that ARMYs would be happy, so I hope you look forward to it. You will be able to see a new side of V as a solo singer, different from V of BTS.”
