BIOGRAPHY

Kim Tae-hyung trained at Big Hit for several years before BTS debuted — his trainee period was kept secret even from friends, a common but unusual practice. He has pursued acting alongside music, appearing in the Korean historical drama 'Hwarang' in 2016. His debut solo album 'Layover' (2023) leaned toward jazz and retro-pop influences entirely distinct from BTS's hip-hop roots, demonstrating a creative voice fully his own.

Beyond K-pop

Painting and visual art — he studied fine arts independently — saxophone (which he began learning during the pandemic), and collecting vintage film photography.
