Despite being in the military, BTS star V continues to turn heads with his surprising public appearances.
Kim Taehyung, popularly known as V from BTS, enlisted in mandatory military service in December 2023. Although he has been mostly out of the public eye since then, the idol remains connected with his fanbase through unexpected appearances and engaging social media updates. Recently, he was spotted at a military orchestra event.
According to Koreaboo, Taehyung attended the performance alongside fellow servicemen, dressed in his military uniform and a white mask. Videos from the event showed him seated in the audience, visibly enjoying the music. His unexpected attendance surprised many fans, who quickly took to social media to express their admiration for his appearance, mask notwithstanding.
Prior to this outing, V’s recent comment on an older Instagram post drew significant online attention. He commented on a picture he shared on February 4, 2022, saying in Korean, “I love you so much, Tanah,” accompanied by a heart emoji. The post featured a rare glimpse of the star with his pet, and as comments on that post were limited, fans shared the screenshot of his heartfelt message widely.
In addition to his latest public engagement, a gym selfie featuring Taehyung and his actor friend Kim Min-Jae circulated on social media and sparked considerable buzz. The image depicted V showcasing an impressive physique in a black tank top and grey shorts, which had fans expressing their excitement about his fitness transformation.
Before beginning his military duty, V released his solo album, *Layover*, in September 2023, which includes six tracks with the lead single “Slow Dancing.” Even while in service, he continues to work on various projects he completed before enlisting. V is not only celebrated for his musical talents but is also recognized as a prominent figure for luxury brands like Celine and Cartier. It is anticipated that he will complete his military service by June 2025.
