BTS’ V‘s “Love me again” became popular, surpassing 700 million streams on Spotify.
“Love me again” recently surpassed 700 million streams on Spotify, the world’s largest music platform.
V‘s preliminary song “Love me again” for his solo album “LAYOVER” has surpassed 700 million streams based on K-pop solo songs. It is also #1 on iTunes in 100 countries.
“Love me again” is an R&B genre song with warm and sacred gospel elements based on 1970s soul. The song’s dreamlike atmosphere and V‘s rhythmic, engaging vocals harmonize well to give a unique vibe hard to find in K-pop.
In “The 2023 K-POP Yearbook“, the American music media “Consequence of Sound” selected “Love me again” as “a song that balances pop and R&B sound and shows a rich baritone and selected it as ” the single that’s worth it”.
The clip was well received as “a sophisticated music video designed to focus on the essence of V‘s face, music and voice by minimizing lighting, scenery and scene changes“.
When the music video was released, it became a popular YouTube video in 87 countries, including the United States, United Kingdom, France, Japan and Canada, and topped all “Itunes Music Video” charts, “Apple Music Video K-Pop,” and “YouTube Music Video.”
V chose “Love me again” as his favorite track from “LAYOVER”. V‘s debut solo album, “LAYOVER”, topped the iTunes charts in 107 countries. He also became the first K-pop solo artist to surpass 100 million streams on Spotify, and the first Asian solo artist to break the record for selling over 100,000 units in the United States.
