4. About Time

V, like many of his bandmates, combines elements from his favorite films, novels, and other media into his music. The proposal sequence from this 2013 British romantic comedy-drama was a source of inspiration for V's song "Winter Bear," which was released in 2013.




 

There is a scene where he proposes when she is about to go to sleep…She was sleeping and the man was kneeling. He was kneeling to propose. That scene was so impressive.” - V


5.  Itaewon Class

Sweet Night, a song by V, is featured on the soundtrack of Itaewon Class, a K-Drama starring his buddy, actor Park Seo Joon, that will premiere in 2020.
