BTS' V, otherwise known as Kim Tae-hyung, made his solo debut with the release of his first studio album, LayoVer, in September 2023. The album held the track Slow Dancing as its title track, and the album was also created in tribute to the relationship that the idol shared with his now-late pet dog, Yeontan.

Soon after this, the idol enlisted in the South Korean military to fulfill his mandatory service. He served as a Sergeant under the Special Duty Team, also known as an elite counter terrorism unit. Regardless of his enlistment, the idol released three new pre-recorded singles in 2024. The first was FRI(END)S in March 2024.

One was with Park Hyo-shin called Winter Ahead, and the other was a posthumous collaboration with the American singer and actor, Bing Crosby, called White Christmas. Additionally, the idol also rolled out his own photobook called Type 1 in July 2024, which captured the idol's moments of comfort and relaxation.

On the other hand, he was discharged from the military in June 2025. While he spent much of his time reconnecting with his fellow BTS members and ARMYs through Weverse livestreams, he made his first public appearance in July. He attended the Paris Fashion Week as Celine's ambassador for the brand's Spring-Summer collection fashion show.

He also collaborated with W Korea as Celine's brand ambassador for his cover feature in the magazine's September issue. Additionally, all the BTS members also announced that they had commenced their preparations for their next group comeback, which is set to release in Spring 2026.
