By now, you must already know that BTS idol, V, got enlisted in the mandatory military service on 11 December 2023. Fans are already saddened as they will not be able to hear him for a long time. However, he has left behind a surprise for his fans.
As the title suggested, V is set to appear in IU’s upcoming video, which will be released next year. Because of his military enlistment, they had to rush for the collaboration.
Taehyung aka V’s prominence, is nothing to be explained. We all are aware of his bold, deep voice and cute looks. This was his solid debut year. Guess, what? He achieved massive success with his works – Love Me Again, and Rainy Days. Besides music, V even starred in the 2016 series – Hwarang: The Poet Warrior Youth.
On the other hand, IU, originally known as Lee Ji-eun, has been doing wonders in the music industry since 2008. Some of IU’s other notable musical works are – Last Fantasy, Modern Times, Love Poem, Strawberry Moon, Can’t Love You Anymore, Peach, Lilac, etc.
Despite being a huge IU fan, not everyone knows that she is an actress too. We saw her playing in the 2023 sports comedy-drama – Dream. She also starred in the film- Hotel del Luna.
Moving on with IU’s collaboration with V, as the news came out, fans went crazy and became impatient too. However, it’s not their first team, sharing how good friends they are. Because, previously, V also appeared on her YouTube channel, Ijejam. This time, it will be their on-screen pairing.
IU’s Collaboration With BTS V: Everything To Know
Well, IU got busy in recording a new album. It is to be noted that the production wants to release it in the first half of 2024. This also calls for the knowledge of V getting enlisted in the military service on 11 December. In other words, he would not have time for the recordings. Because of that, the duo hastily worked on it, adjusting V’s schedule.
So, when will IU’s new musical work released? Sadly, a specific release date is not yet announced. In other words, details about the project are still kept under wraps. It was IU’s agency – EDAM Entertainment which made an official announcement regarding their collaboration. It said, “IU has finished filming the music video with BTS’s V.” Later, BIGHIT Music also confirmed the ways is true.
Fans took this discussion about Lee Jin-eu and V’s newfound friendship. Everyone is super excited about the release. One fan wrote, “Yayyyy finally the much needed.” Another commented, “Omg. Is this serious? Are we getting the new power collab?” Some expressed their hope that it will surely be a chart-topping collaboration. We need to see how it goes.
Among all the comments and reactions from the fans, one thing felt very weird. That was the comparison made with the BTS golden maknae. Yes, we are talking about the Standing Next To You singer, Jungkook. On this note, the comment was like – “Poor Jungkook, he missed the chance.” Don’t you think it was very mean?
Keeping the negativity aside, let’s just hope that IU’s new album will reach a massive success, as always. We are eagerly waiting for the release.
