Now, the short film has been released. It featured multiple artist videos that showed the word “friends” before leaving only “end.”
Since the short film dropped, eagle-eyed netizens noticed something. There was also a shot of a newspaper, which included a paragraph for a press release describing a new album. It listed five tracks and a bonus track, which is recommended to listen to from start to finish. This was almost identical to the statement BIGHIT MUSIC released ahead of Layover, V’s solo EP.
it's the same text of when they announced layover pic.twitter.com/SFe51AqwIT

ARMYs believe that this inclusion in the short film is a clue. They suspect that “FRI(END)S” is technically a bonus track or extension of Layover.
Five tracks and a bonus albums flow recommend start to finish?
Is it bonus track of Layover?🤔 pic.twitter.com/OtL1kIEDZk

so, this song will most likely be a continuation of Layover (would we finally have a good ending? lol), to promote the song I suggest to make edits about HYYH on tiktok with this song and HOTS main poster will be released soon???

Taehyung really wants his fans to use their brains to decipher his clues.
I love his sexy brain.
Anyway Friends is the Sequel of LayOver. So we are definitely getting Sequel for Friends means we are getting kth2 soon. 🤡

All the clues are coming together now. Another ARMY remembered how a spot was empty in inclusions from their Layover album.
During his Layover one of the spots was left empty.. is that for FRI(END)S? pic.twitter.com/Rij4FhnWLs
