[Just a note that the Amazon title for this is not correct. I am not sure why it shows as 'Behind the Veil' when the album's name is Layover ]

The first solo EP from V, a member of the famous South Korean musical act - BTS, this album is a refreshing departure from the usual pop sound one is accustomed to in popular music today.

For those who are familiar with V's musical tastes, it should not be much of a surprise to find that he leans more towards R&B, Soul, Jazz, Classical music and its variants.

'Layover' is an introductory homage and insight into what V is all about. He is more than just another flashy K-Idol, but a true musician at heart. He loves to experiment with different sounds and this album gives him an opportunity to not just do that, but to showcase his incredible versatile vocal range.

For those who enjoy R&B, Soul, Jazz and wanting to step out from the familiar sounds of pop music.

All the tracks are unique and wonderful. With only 6 tracks (where one is just another version of the title track), this mini-album is a 'no-skip' one; meaning all songs have to be listened to in order for the full experience.

It was too short! We need more songs from you, V!

Listen to it all over again.

Incredibly proud of how far V has come from his roots as a member of the group, BTS. As a long time fan of that group, it's been wonderful to see V branch out to do something different than the rest. A risky move in such a difficult industry, but he is a musician at heart and that comes first.

In addition to the wonderful songs, V also made music videos to accompany each, and they all tell a story in linear progression; so please start from 'Love Me Again', to 'Rainy Days' to 'Slow Dancing' to 'Blue' and 'For Us' just might be the love song to his fans that is bound to bring you to tears.
