BTS (BTS) V was praised by the New York Times for being the most passionate and powerful vocalist.
BTS released its fifth full-length album "ARIRANG" on the 20th. On the 21st, the next day, a new song, including the title song "Swim," was released for the first time at Gwanghwamun Square in Seoul. "BTS THE COMEBACK LIVE | ARIRANG," which was broadcast live on Netflix, ranked No. 1 in 77 countries.
The New York Times said, "K-pop superstar BTS' new album 'Arirang' has high commercial expectations and contains the spirit of artistic experimentation."
"BTS, which has reunited after serving in the military, is more confident and unique than before. The tracks on the album "Arirang" are wild, intense, throbbing, ingenious and sometimes wild. Rather than being carefully composed, it feels like it was made to achieve maximum grandeur," he added.

The New York Times said, "Although the roles are well divided among the members, 'Arirang' is much closer to a showcase for rappers than a vocal," adding, "V is the most passionate and powerful voice among the vocals," noting V's clear presence as a vocalist in the album.
V raised the mood of each song in "Arirang" with a variety of tones, drawing great repercussions at the concert hall in Gwanghwamun Square. With a firmer vocal, he decorated the highlight section from groaling, the singing method of rock and metal, to sincerity and falsetto in high notes as well as soft bass.
V, who has a low baritone but wide range, makes BTS's music richer with various vocal singing methods such as palseto, belting, and vibrato. By showing a stage dominance with a perfect performance as well as a captivating vocal, V is proving the brilliant presence of a stage genius on the comeback stage after four years.
