Since everyone is talking about "Into the Sun" and V, I thought I'd share this article again, it feels especially relevant right now.
BTS's V Participates in Writing and Composing "Into the Sun" ~~ "Taehyung Hyung Really Nailed It"
BTS member V's song "Into the Sun," for which he took the lead in both songwriting and composition, has been receiving continuous praise from critics.
Recently, BTS spent time introducing the tracks on their album Arirang. When it came time to discuss the outro track, "Into the Sun," Jungkook remarked, "Taehyung hyung really nailed it again." V shyly responded, "Somehow, this song ended up being added to the album at the last minute."
Despite having written and composed the song himself, V was initially opposed to including it on the album. Explaining his reasoning, he said:
> "Just because I wrote it doesn't mean it should automatically be included. We have to look at whether it truly fits the album in an objective way. There were so many great songs written by the other members, so I wondered if this track really needed to be on the album. But I didn't expect the members to like it this much."
RM shared his thoughts, saying,
> "What makes this song so beautiful is that it feels like the silhouettes of seven people running toward a sunset."
Jin commented,
> "It's a song that suits the ending perfectly."
Suga added,
> "It's an excellent outro."
Producer NiiTi, who participated in the making of the Arirang album, also spoke highly of the track:
> "The moment we started working on Into the Sun was truly special. I remember V picking up the microphone and experimenting with a crazy vocoder. Pdogg, Tyler Johnson, Diplo, and a few of the members started playing chords together, and we spent about 20 minutes just jamming and having fun. It was one of the most enjoyable moments of the entire songwriting camp. I'm really proud to have been part of this song."
"Into the Sun" has also earned widespread acclaim from music critics.
Rolling Stone wrote in its review of the Arirang album:
> "Its falsetto harmonies and slow, shimmering tempo create the feeling of watching a majestic sunset with BTS while witnessing the limitless possibilities that lie ahead of them."
The New York Times praised the song, saying:
> "Into the Sun combines mournful guitar melodies with whistling that seems to push against them, while a chorus that sounds as if it were borrowed from Fountains of Wayne creates a hypnotic and soothing atmosphere."
The Hollywood Reporter highlighted BTS's musical growth, stating:
> "With Into the Sun, BTS is moving into a new territory of their own."
BBC described the track as:
> "An experimental and entertaining song that manipulates the members' voices through digital effects, adding a tender and mysterious quality to their message of eternal love. In its final minute, it transforms into a grand stadium-rock anthem."
Meanwhile, The Guardian wrote:
> "One final surprise remains. Filled with vocal effects and stripped down to recreate the feel of a live-band jam session, Into the Sun delivers an intriguing and memorable finale."
The publication praised the strong impression left by the track.
In addition, V also participated in writing and composing the album track "2.0."

#taekookau ; where
Taehyung lay on Jeon Jungkook’s bed, the same Jeon Jungkook who was married to his sister. He lay on his sister’s marital bed, n*ked, with her husband beside him, equally exp*sed,
I am #noticing that indie band who posted the Into The Sun cover to be that kind of a fan. They had been interacting only with 🐻 antis who are discrediting his work in Into The Sun.
I wouldn’t hype their contents tbh
#taekookau where college diva Taehyung starts receiving cute little notes & gifts anonymously from a secret admirer. Little does he know it's nerd Jungkook, who spends his days watching Tae from afar & wondering, "I watch you from a distance, & I wonder if you ever wonder too."

A #taekookau where Taehyung calls his husband “Daddy” at the breakfast table purely to tease their kids,but he doesn’t expect Jeongguk to match his energy and reply with, “Yes, Mommy.”
