‘Slow Dancing’ by BTS’ V surpasses 500 mln Spotify streams
BTS member V’s 2023 hit single “Slow Dancing” has garnered over 500 million streams on Spotify, his agency said Friday.
The song hit the milestone on the world’s largest music streaming platform Wednesday, becoming his third song to do so, BigHit Music said.

It’s a pop R&B track based on 1970s soul sounds, featuring a unique atmosphere with jazz elements. V’s romantic and relaxed vocals, along with the improvised flute performance in the latter half, are particularly captivating.
