V Confirms ‘Layover’ Is Connected to BTS’ ‘HYYH’ Era

There is little doubt that the “Hwa Yang Yeon Hwa” series is still one of BTS’ most memorable eras. In fact, the iconic music from the albums continues to be a favorite for most fans. So it’s no surprise that ARMYs are not the only ones who can’t get over the “HYYH” era. According to V, his solo album ‘Layover’ is influenced and strongly connected to the supergroup’s ‘The Most Beautiful Moment in Life’ era.

V Discusses Love for Jazz and Not Being Over the ‘HYYH’ Era

In a recent Rolling Stone interview, V delved into the creative inspiration behind his latest project, ‘Layover’, drawing special influence from the world of jazz. He recounted his journey of falling in love with jazz music, noting that his affection for the genre didn’t blossom instantaneously. Instead, it was a rediscovery that eventually led to a profound and genuine appreciation.

The interviewer then ventured into the realm of nostalgia, curious whether V’s affinity for jazz implied a nostalgic streak in his personality. To this, the idol nodded in agreement, sharing that he indeed feels a deep connection between his fondness for jazz and his memories of “The Most Beautiful Moment in Life.”

“I think you can think of it as connected to BTS’ ‘The Most Beautiful Moment in Life’ series, which showcased the theme of youth,” V said. “You know, when you look back into your past and feel sentimental about those old memories. That strange feeling that comes with reflecting back on your old self, and thinking, ‘I wish I could go back to those good old days…’

How ‘HYYH’ Influenced ‘Layover’

He further added that the influence is evident in most of the songs in ‘Layover’.

“I think that overall sentiment is also reflected in this album,” V said. “Particularly the song ‘Love Me Again’ is about reminiscing and wanting to return to the past. I think those ideas are reflected in the music video as well. So in short, my youth is not over. Right?

The BTS discography’s ‘HYYH’ (Hwa Yong Yeon Hwa) era encompasses a collection of albums known as “The Most Beautiful Moment in Life.” During this period, BTS delved into diverse themes associated with the trials and tribulations of transitioning into adulthood. The three albums in the series include ‘The Most Beautiful Moment in Life, Pt. 1’, ‘The Most Beautiful Moment in Life, Pt. 2’, and ‘The Most Beautiful Moment in Life: Young Forever’.
