The announcement comes shortly after BTS member Suga revealed he had begun the process of enlisting for Korea’s mandatory military service, becoming the third group member to do so after Jin and J-Hope. BTS has been on hiatus since 2022 due to the military service requirement, but that hasn’t stopped its members from embarking on successful solo endeavors. V himself has released several singles over the years, including the 2021 holiday song “Christmas Tree,” which made him the first BTS member to make it on the Hot 100 chart solo, per Forbes. Meanwhile, Jungkook, RM, Jin, J-Hope, and Jimin all released solo projects in 2022, and Suga released an album called “D-Day” in April. Additionally, the group’s memoir, “Beyond the Story: 10-Year Record of BTS,” hit shelves on July 9.

V’s “Love Me Again” Lyrics in English

VERSE 1
You left me
Took those memories with you
But even now I can’t
Let you go
Let you go

Is that all you have to say
One word, that’s it?
If ever you regret this, won’t you
Let me know
Let me know

PRE-CHORUS
Fine, I will be honest with you
Put it all out there
I think about you all the time
Where you are, who you’re with
Lost without you baby

CHORUS
I wish you would love me again
No I don’t want nobody else
I wish you could love me again
Again

I wish you would love me again
No I don’t want nobody else
I wish you could love me again
Again

VERSE 2
Am I the only one like this?
Are you OK if I’m with someone else?
Let’s take it way back, slowly
Make it feel better
Yeah make it forever

Don’t say it’s OK
Said I’m all right
Said I’ll be fine
I’m sorry
They’re all lies
Please don’t leave
Please don’t go, so far away

PRE-CHORUS
Fine, I will be honest with you
Put it all out there
I think about you all the time
Where you are, who you’re with
Lost without you baby

CHORUS
I wish you would love me again
No I don’t want nobody else
I wish you could love me again
Again

I wish you would love me again
No I don’t want nobody else
I wish you could love me again
Again

I wish you would love me again
No I don’t want nobody else
I wish you could love me again
Again

V’s “Layover” Album Tracklist

HYBE’s official statement described each song on the project. “Rainy Days” is a track that “melds beautifully with the sound of rain and everyday white noises, tugging at the listeners’ heartstrings,” it read. “Blue” is “a homage to old-school R&B with a modern twist, adding a special flair to the song,” and “Love Me Again” is “a light and captivating R&B track with an alluring vibe that lingers long” and lets “V’s signature baritone [shine] through.” Additionally, “Slow Dancing” is described as “the focus track of this album, a ’70s romantic soul style track that exudes a laid-back and free-spirited feeling, just as the title suggests,” while “For Us” is “a pop R&B track that leaves a lasting impression of the entire album” and “serves as an epilogue, stirring up deep emotions with V’s vocals and unique lyrics.” Finally, “Slow Dancing (Piano Ver.)” is “a piano arrangement of the focus track ‘Slow Dancing,’ which offers a different allure from the original as a bonus track.” According to Billboard, the album was made in collaboration with ADOR president and NewJeans creative director Hee Jin Min.
