To commemorate Layover and V’s solo debut, Spotify is releasing a series of new episodes on its K-Pop ON! YouTube and Video Podcast channels for fans to learn more about the music of Layover and V as a solo artist.

In Spotipoly V Edition, V gives his all to complete missions and earn opportunities to introduce his new album to ARMY in person. Between challenges that had the self-proclaimed gamer fishing against the clock, making rain, and producing beats with miniature instruments, V takes us on a voyage through Layover, revealing the stories behind each song.

V juggles surprise missions, unboxing, and answering some of ARMY’s most pressing queries on the UNBOXING SHOW. From his current hobby to the little things that bring him pleasure, his fur-baby ‘Yeontan,’ and behind-the-scenes details from the filming of Layover, this interview with a twist reveals the many charms of the global superstar.

“In life, going directly to your final destination is pretty rare. So through this “Layover”, I hope people can take a break, self-reflect, and look back on your goals. I wish that everyone, including myself, would not neglect themselves because they are too focused on their work. When working or doing something, I hope they can think about their health and happiness and other aspects of their mental well-being. Sometimes, taking a break is okay,” says V in the UNBOXING SHOW.
