Map of the Soul: 7 held a few gems for BTS fans. That includes a subunit comprised of singers Jimin and V, and their song together, titled Friends. Heres what V and Jimin had to say about their subunit and what set them apart from other members of their K-pop group, BTS.

When BTS released Map of the Soul: 7 during 2020, it held a few surprises for fans. There were solo songs from rappers Suga and J-Hope and even songs from subunits within the K-pop group, like Suga and RM who collaborated on the song Respect.

One of the other subunits featured singers in the group, V and Jimin. Together, they named their team 95s and dropped a song together featured on Map of the Soul: 7, Friends. It became a favorite among BTS fans, earning millions of streams in a matter of days.

Friends touched on V and Jimins life together even before they were in BTS. The two actually went to school together and although theyll sometimes fight like brothers, as the lyrics state, theyre soulmates and theyll always be there together.

Their subunit nickname, 95s, actually is a nod to the year they were both born. When asked what set V and Jimins group apart from the other BTS members during a YouTube video, V answered, They dont have members of the same age.

Thats true, Jimin continued, speaking about 95s. Other subunits dont have members of the same age and I think our team feels more relaxed than others. We always look happy, bright.

Technically, Jimin and V released the song Graduation together, which discussed their time together at school. That song was never officially added to a BTS album, though. That means after seven years of performing with BTS, Friends is the first time Jimin and V released a song as an official subunit.

I liked it because it wasnt predictable, it was so original, V said. He further elaborated, saying that he would definitely collaborate with Jimin on future projects.

Aside from their duet on Friends, both V and Jimin have their own solo songs with BTS. For V, that includes Singularity off of Love Yourself: Answer. For Jimin that means Serendipity off of Love Yourself: Answer.

Fans can see BTS perform live during their Map of the Soul world tour, which has since been postponed due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Music by BTS, including the single Stay Gold and Map of the Soul: 7, is available for streaming on platforms like Spotify and Apple Music.
