BTS's Kim Taehyung, aka V, is set to embark on a highly anticipated solo journey with his forthcoming album 'Layover,' slated for release on September 8

The solo venture promises a collection of six captivating tracks, headlined by the mesmerizing lead single 'Slow Dancing'

Taehyung has already dropped two tracks from the album, 'Love Me Again' and 'Rainy Days' along with the music videos and ARMY, BTS's massive global fanbase, could not be more excited. Promotions for V's album are underway - and the artist and BigHit music, the label that manages BTS recently released pictures from the official photoshoot for the album

Breaking away from convention, V's album promotions will showcase a distinctive approach. That music videos are being released for not only the title track, 'Slow Dancing,' but also for 'Layover's' B-side tracks is an innovation that sets a new standard in the realm of K-Pop promotions. This bold move shows V's vision and commitment to deliver an immersive artistic experience to his booming fanbase

Taehyung is BTS's resident fashionista and is well-known for embracing an eclectic and singular fashion sense. The Layover photoshoot also captures his striking fashionable persona and combines it with a playful aesthetic 

Yeontan, Taehyung's pet dog is undoubtedly the greatest love of his life. Over the years, ARMY has joined V in watching Tannie grow up from a cute, frolicking puppy into a grown dog. Yeontan features as an integral element of the album, and his photo is also part of the official cover

Taehyung is the embodiment of the classic American hero in his raglan t-shirt and denim

Apart from his heavenly vocals, Taehyung also has distinctive artistic sensibilities and can often be spotted splashing paint onto a canvas - whether in BTS's pandemic reality show 'In The Soop' or their gaming/variety show 'Run! BTS' In this photo, Tae cutely poses with Yeontan and the artwork spotted in the mirror's reflection seems signature V!

What can beat a black-and-white closeup of Taehyung's profile, tousled hair and all?

This photograph perfectly captures Taehyung's playful stylistic sensibililty. He looks super cute in his green-blue cool-toned tank top matched with some funky colouful neck jewellery

Picture Taehyung in a suave grey blazer, matched with formal shorts, layered over a striped and collared blue shirt - capped over with literally a red baseball cap. No one, we repeat, no one could pull this off except for Taehyung! Yes, Yeontan, we would look at V like that too if it were us

Yeontan even features in Taehyung's 'Rainy Days' official music video. Or so we thought - until V recently revealed in a livetstream that the fluffy Pomerian was in fact his doppelganger, belonging to a friend in Spain!

Taehyung looks ultra-cool and relaxed in this photo - of course he does, he can rest assured that 'Layover' is going to set unprecedented records upon its release!

And that hair! Taehyung sported a mullet during BTS's 'Love Yourself: Tear' era, but this is definitely the longest his hair has ever been during any musical promotion. BTS has been making ARMY go gaga in their long-hair era - and we are here for it!

As Seokjin would say - 'Two flowers in one frame.' It is understadably why Taehyung's sensual vocals combined with his breathtaking visuals are enough to blow ARMYs away

ARMYs look forward to seeing all of BTS's furry companions, whether it is Jungkook's pet dog Bam, or Yoongi's dog, Holly. What fans especially fell for was that the entire 'Rainy Days' MV is tinted in hues of blue and yellow - the only colours that dogs are able to perceive!

Taehyung captioned these photos with a (baby emoji > adult man emoji) and ARMYs couldn't agree more! The Bangtan members have grown up faster than ever and we miss seeing baby Taehyung prance about with the other members, be it on holiday, on stage or in the dance practice studio. This photo embodies Taehyung's 'inner child' (if you haven't listened to his other solo song, 'Inner Child,' what are you doing?)

The entire 'Layover' photoshoot is tinted with a retro vibe that points towards the mood of the album itself. Unlike Tae's more flashy stage persona, his previous solo singles like Winter Bear, Sweet Night and Scenery have alluded to the softer and more atmospheric jazzy, R&B, soul sounds that the artist leans towards and is inspired from

And as if right on cue, Taehyung poses in an understated black hoodie with 'Jazz is freedom' lettering in the background!

On August 10, Taehyung dropped the music video for 'Love me Again.' If Jungkook unleashed his inner lover boy with his solo digital single, 'Seven,' 'Love Me Again' features Taehyung as heartbroken lover fervently serenading his significant other and reminiscing bygone memories

The video captures Taehyung in a never-seen-before avatar - even as he croons about a lost love in his rich, deep baritone underlaid with a smooth R&B melody, he doesn't forget to make a fashionable style statement

Taehyung appears in a red fishnet top as well as a glittering gold ensemble complete with rings and earcuffs - with his blond hair - he looks part artist and complete royalty!

In the 'Rainy Days' music video, Taehyung masterfully crafts a song rooted in the pop R&B genre for, infusing it with a distinct vibe by blending vintage percussion sounds seamlessly with contemporary drums

In the accompanying music video, calm and subdued in nature, encapsulates V as he spends a leisurely day at home, seemingly thinking of someone special

Do you see Taehyung gazing into your soul? That's him telling you to give lots of love to his debut solo album, 'Layover'! His album drops on September 8, 2023
