LAYOVER IS OUT

Grammy-nominated K-pop group BTS member V has set a new all-time record with his first solo album “Layover.” 

“Layover” was released on Sept. 8 and according to Korea’s Hanteo Chart, the album sold a total of 1,672,138 copies on the first day of release and topped the daily physical album chart. 

With this, V has set a new all-time record for the highest first-day sales for an album of a solo artist in Hanteo Chart history. 

“Layover” has six tracks: “Rainy Days,” “Blue,” “Love Me Again,” focus track “Slow Dancing,” “For Us” and bonus track “Slow Dancing (Piano Ver.)”. The first five tracks each have an accompanying official music video.

“Since I’m the last one to release a solo album among BTS members, I am nervous, but I’ll show everyone what I’ve been working on one layer at a time,” said V.

He added, “Layover is an album that captures the essence of who Kim Taehyung is as a person. It’s fresh, surprising, and relaxing.”

🇺🇸 Slow Dancing has reached #1 on US iTunes Music videos chart!

Finally.. I am so emotional right now... Thank you US army..

HYBE underestimates #BTS #V's (Kim Taehyung) selling power leading to 500,000+ sales of 'Layover' not being counted on the 1st day after they couldn't meet the high demand

Prior to the final count of 1st-day sales, it was announced on Hanteo's real-time chart that 'Layover' had sold over 2.2 million copies in less than 7 hours.

Following the Hanteo change, 'China Baidu VBar,' Taehyung's Chinese fan club, issued a statement clarifying what happened and providing receipts of their purchase.

A retailer they ordered from confirmed that their order was too large, and the limited supply was not enough to accommodate it.

'Kpop Merch,' the retailer who was responsible for the fiasco, issued a statement apologizing for taking fans' money without checking inventory and securing the album stocks from HYBE.

Regardless of the situation, Taehyung did sell over 2 million albums in one day, and it will officially be reflected on his 1st week sales records.

[INFO] Slow Dancing debuts at #1 on Worldwide iTunes and European songs chart

For Us and Blue debut at #3 and #4 respectively. Taehyung occupies the #1, #3, #4, #6 and #7 spot on Worldwide iTunes song chart

BILLBOARD : BTS’ V Spends the Day at the Beach With Friends in ‘Slow Dancing’ Video: Watch

The visual was released alongside the vocalist's debut solo album, Layover.

V‘s solo album, Layover, has arrived, and along with the release, the BTS vocalist dropped a serene music video to accompany the track “Slow Dancing” on Friday (Sept. 8).

The video sees the K-pop star heading on a road trip with his friends to the beach. As the cars wind and weave through the mountains, V takes the opportunity to soak up as much sunshine as possible and sticks his head out of the window to catch additional breeze before going back into the car for some fun Polaroid photos with his buddies in the passenger seats.
