BTS V's Songs Featured in 3 K-dramas

When Will BTS V Drop His Mixtape?
Even though BTS V has already recorded songs for three K-dramas, he has not released his debut solo album unlike other members of his K-pop group.
Last year, BTS V hinted at the possibility of releasing his debut solo album before the year of the year. But this did not happen.

He told Rolling Stone that there's so much pressure when it comes to releasing a debut solo album that's why he wants to make it as perfect as possible.
This could be the reason why BTS V is taking his sweet time before he unveils his mixtape.
BTS V Shares His Biggest Goal
In December 2021, BTS V spoke with GQ Australia to share what his hopes and goals are as an artist.
He said that he wants to be able to write a song that he would be very proud of. In the past, BTS V said that he has already written some songs, but they always fall short of his expectations.
BTS V also said that his thoughts and experiences change a lot so his songs also differ in terms of lyrics and melody.
At the end of the day, he wants to release a track that he could perform in front of ARMYs.
