Seventeen's unit V8 has begun full-scale preparations for their comeback by releasing the first concept film and photos for their first mini-album, "V8," via official social media. The album's version title, "RATS NEST," metaphorically expresses the chaotic state of youth.
The released concept photos capture traces of youth, such as wreckage, torn wallpaper, and wildflowers in a room. This rough setting further highlights the raw charm of members Xu Minghao and Vernon.
The unit V8, composed of Xu Minghao and Vernon, embodies the meaning of racing forward, powered by a unique sensibility much like an 8-cylinder engine. They are scheduled to release their first mini-album and hold a solo concert on the upcoming 29th.
