Ahead of his solo album release, BTS member Kim Taehyung, who goes by his stage name V, dropped three of his previous solo songs on official streaming platforms. 

On August 28, the artist’s company BIGHIT MUSIC, shared that “Scenery”, “Winter Bear”, and “Snow Flower” are now available worldwide via streaming platforms Spotify and Apple Music.
