It was previously rumored that V had returned to South Korea to spend some time back home.

The star replied to a comment on the fan community platform Weverse, confirming that the discharge happened today and that he was present at it. However, he was also surprised at how quickly the news had been shared online. He also replied to a fan asking when he would visit China, sharing that he would go any time if only they invited him.


Fans also believe that he returned to South Korea on July 21 and reached out to a music composer/vocalist friend of his. This has raised rumors of new solo music being released by the Layover singer. He previously hung out with famed DJ Peggy Gou and has excited his fans for what lies ahead in his solo career.
