In recent hours, V has been at the center of social media attention after throwing the ceremonial first pitch at the game between the LA Dodgers and the Cincinnati Reds at Dodger Stadium. From his encounter with star pitcher Ohtani to his flawless bare face, everything has sparked lively discussions among fans.

Although he has been absent for two years due to military service, upon his return V has once again proven his undeniable influence as a global K-pop superstar!

Not only do his appearances at major events draw attention, but even the smallest of V’s actions quickly become hot topics online. With just a single random photo, ARMYs are able to weave together a series of theories.
Aside from the baseball event, the latest buzz among fans has shifted to details believed to be connected to V’s possible second tattoo.

Specifically, a photo circulating on Twitter shows a “prince” tattoo on an arm, accompanied by a few meaningful lines of poetry. The image was originally posted on Instagram by Dr. Woo, a renowned tattoo artist in Los Angeles whom both V and j-hope have visited multiple times. In fact, Dr. Woo is the one who recently revealed j-hope’s new “hope” tattoo on his thigh.

What fueled the speculation even further is that this tattoo perfectly matches a colored illustration V posted on his own Instagram three days ago with the caption: “I hope you like it~”. This coincidence sparked theories that the tattoo might actually belong to V himself.

Fans, however, soon began investigating in order to avoid spreading misinformation. It turned out that the tattoo photo had originally been uploaded by Dr. Woo back in 2024. And of course, since then, fans have never spotted any tattoos on V’s body—other than the well-known friendship tattoo “7”—especially not in such a visible area like his arm.

The more reasonable explanation is that V may have seen the tattoo design while visiting Dr. Woo’s studio or scrolling through his Instagram, and then randomly decided to share the colored illustration simply because he liked it.

Still, ARMYs are not ruling out the possibility that V might actually be considering a tattoo of his own. Some noticed that the prince in the illustration had the letter “V” written on his leg. When combined with the fact that j-hope recently got “hope” tattooed on his leg, V and j-hope have visited Dr. Woo’s studio together in LA many times, and V’s playful caption, fans can’t help but wonder if V might eventually follow in his hyung’s footsteps.

In the end, all of ARMYs’ interpretations remain pure speculation, and no one knows for sure what V’s true intentions are. Still, the discussion continues to heat up online:

- HONESTLY SOBBING. He gave us a hint with his insta story. I never thought it would be a tattoo

- think Taehyung saw this story at the tattoo artist's and posted it. It's impossible for him to post soмєтнing random.

- Did he get his name on his leg same a Hope? I mean he didn't tattoo prince but can add "V" on his biceps

- He wrote a V on the boys leg. Hobi got a leg tattoo. Maybe Tae also got another leg tattoo

- I have an amateur theory. The letter V is the number 5 in Roman numeral so…

- Is that the new tattoo?? He can't post soмєтнing random with caption: "I hope you like it". 

- WAIT!! DID HE GOT IT TATTOOED ON HIS KNEE???? BROO IT WAS ALL IN FRONT OF OUR EYES!!

- Are they all getting the new tattoos or what…

- Only V can cause this much chaos with just ONE picture. Now we’re all turning into detectives over a possible tattoo

- The fact that the prince drawing has a ‘V’ on the leg?? I can’t stop thinking about it… this feels too intentional 

- Imagine if Taehyung and Hobi actually planned this together at Dr. Woo’s studio… my delulu brain is winning today

- At this point, whether he has the tattoo or not doesn’t even matter… he already knows ARMYs will go wild over the smallest clue.
