Seoul: K-pop boy band BTS singer V (Kim Taehyung) surprised his fans with the release of a portion of his new song on the social media platform. He captioned the tweet, “sleep.”
The clip, which featured only the audio, had V singing a mellow song similar to that of a lullaby.
The song was a mix of Korean and English lyrics.
“Can I go to bed and sleep tonight? May I lean my body on you now. I’ll come back to tell another story of mine,” were the lines in English, as partly translated by fans.

BTS’ V sings in a slow-pitched voice as if the song is a new lullaby created by him.
A BTS fan, with the handle @btstranslation7, translated the Korean lines. “The silent night approaches me/and when i look towards the window with an empty gaze/i see the clouds outside are still walking [in the sky]/and the ruffling of my bed covers/ slowly, slowly fades away/ slowly, slowly the night fades away,” the translation revealed.
V has been working on his solo mixtape, which has been dubbed as KTH1, for a while now. On numerous occasions, he shared musical spoilers to tease fans.
