Taehyung Opens Up About the Person Who Has Deeply Influenced His Personality Throughout His Idol Career

Among the BTS members, V is often regarded as a “social butterfly”—someone who is outgoing, friendly, and naturally good at connecting with people around him. He has close friendships with numerous celebrities both inside and outside the entertainment industry, often surprising the public whenever he reveals another famous friend.

The BTS members have also shared that V’s optimism, love for life, and cheerful personality help create a positive, energetic atmosphere within the group. His infectious energy and charming nature have also drawn in many of the people around him.

However, few people know that V was not always as outgoing and full of energy as he is today. Behind the personality everyone has come to love lies a journey of change and personal growth, shaped in part by an extraordinary source of inspiration. The people who helped V become a more confident and positive version of himself are none other than the fans who have always stood by his side—ARMY!

First of all, V believes his personality has been influenced by reading ARMY’s posts. He has developed a habit of checking their updates and sharing things on social media naturally, much like the way he sees ARMY doing.

"I guess my personality turned out this way due to ARMY. ARMY tells me what they did on that day on their posts. After I read them continuously, I become ARMY-ish. I post a story about what I did on that day, it was natural for me some time," he said.

V also revealed that he regularly follows fans on social media, which helps him maintain a positive state of mind. He shared, "I guess I always did that when I was dy1ng of boredom I wonder what ARMYs are doing. I wonder how they’re doing. I do that. I quietly watch what ARMYs do."

As V reads ARMY’s posts, time seems to fly by, and the negative thoughts in his mind gradually fade away. He comes across all kinds of updates, from exciting moments to the challenges fans face in their everyday lives.

He explained, "Time goes by when I read them. There are letters from them telling me what they did today, what was hard, and what was fun. Time pαѕѕes by when I happily read them."

Perhaps this is also why V is often among the BTS members who are quick to update social media and actively interact with fans. What ARMY cherish, however, is not simply how often he appears online, but the sincerity, warmth, and spontaneity he brings to every interaction. Whether through a face-to-face conversation or a small moment shared on social media, V makes fans feel that the bond between them goes far beyond the distance that usually separates an idol from their au∂ιєnce.

Perhaps the most beautiful thing about V and ARMY’s relationship is the way their affection flows both ways. Fans find happiness in his simple, everyday interactions, while V draws comfort, inspiration, and motivation from the love they give him. They are not merely the people cheering for him from beneath the stage; they have also become part of his journey of growth, helping him learn to open up and embrace the world with a more positive outlook.

Ultimately, a beautiful relationship between an idol and their fans does not have to be proven through grand declarations or extraordinary gestures. Sometimes, the most precious thing is the ability to bring each other happiness, warmth, and the strength to become better versions of themselves.

Isn’t this the kind of healthy relationship between an idol and their fans that we all hope to see? We truly admire this wonderful person!
