BTS’s V Shares Military Selfie with Fans After Training, Showcasing Manly Look

On September 8th, a post titled “V came to our chatroom and posted a military uniform selfie” gained significant attention on platforms like X (formerly Twitter) and various online communities.

In the post, V was spotted visiting an open KakaoTalk chatroom that was created by fans to show their support. He greeted fans with a friendly, “How have you all been?” and humorously remarked, “Other rooms had passwords that were too complicated, so I came here.”

It seems V was on the lookout for a casual chatroom where fans were hanging out. When he didn’t receive immediate responses, he prompted, “Aren’t you going to play with me? What have you been up to?”

Some fans were initially skeptical about it being V. To confirm his identity, he shared a surprising selfie in his military uniform, leaving fans in awe.

In the image, V’s short hairstyle drew significant attention. Compared to his youthful appearance prior to enlistment, he now presented a more mature and robust look, radiating a strong “manly” vibe.

Fans expressed their astonishment with comments like “Huh?” and “Wow!” as they admired his transformation. After sharing the photo and a brief farewell, “Bye!” , V exited the chatroom.

It was subsequently revealed through fan communities that V had taken a short break before the evening roll call to engage with fans, showcasing his dedication by utilizing his valuable personal time for this interaction while in the military.

Netizens shared reactions such as, “Is his personal color ‘military’ now?”, “Number 1 guy who looks best in a military uniform”, “He looks like he came straight out of ‘Descendants of the Sun’”, “He’s become so manly”, “More handsome and still as sweet as ever,” and “How can you not love this man?”

V enlisted in December and is expected to complete his service on June 10th, 2025. Fans eagerly await his return and future activities, excited to see his growth and maturity.

Additionally, V was voted first in the “Idol Who Looks Best in a Military Uniform” poll hosted by The Fact and MBC Plus’s “Idol Champ,” which ran from June 6th to 20th. He received an impressive 14,691 votes, securing the top position.
