V often does not hesitate to share stories about his father when given the opportunity and fans also love the way V and his father love each other. Through the stories, fans learned what a great father V's father is and that he is even an ideal role model for his own son.
In particular, a story recently told on MBC Radio revealed the true personality of V's father and also showed the reason why V has a hobby of playing golf. The show's participants were surprised by the story being told while fans felt happy that V has a wonderful father.
The story below will show you why we have such a beloved Kpop superstar today:
Fans all know that the parents of BTS members are the ones who have a great influence on their successful careers today. In particular, V's father is seen as someone who has accompanied him a lot from when he was a trainee until now. He not only gave V useful advice but he was also the most solid rock for him to develop to be a top Kpop star.
Fans who have followed V since his debut days must know that he is always proud and loves to talk about his father. V also did not hesitate to admit that for him, his father was his "childhood hero". He said: "Like I’ve always said, my hero is my dad. There’s always this moment where you say ‘wow’ and even the smallest actions seem cool. I was raised by my grandma and my dad came home on the weekends. There was this coin box in the car that was used to pay at the tollgate and my dad would grab a bunch of coins and give them to me. At that young age, I thought ‘my dad is the best!’. It’s all because of my dad’s support that I am here today."
However, it was not until the story about V's father shared by the host of MBC Radio spread that ARMYs deeply understood that V is truly a "copy" of his father. Specifically, in MBC Radio star’s latest episode, the radio host Kim Gu-ra shared that V's father lives in the same neighborhood as him and his youngest (child) once received an allowance from V's father.
After hearing this, Comedian Kim Gook-jin unexpectedly revealed his friendship with V's father, saying, "V's father is really good at golf”.
Since then, ARMYs realized that V was raised by a friendly, loving father and so now, he is also a sociable person who always knows how to care for others. V is nicknamed as "Social butterfly" because he has many famous friends and is always praised for his good personality by the insideers. He developed this personality thanks to his father.
Not only that, V is also famous for his hobby of playing golf, and perhaps this hobby was inspired by his father. V has many times shared videos or photos when he went golfing with Wooga Squad or close friends. Even before enlisting, V spent time playing golf, showing how endlessly pa̾s̾sionate he is about this sport.
As V has mentioned before that his father is the role model he wants to be, he is actually a "younger" version of his father. Fans felt extremely emotional when witnessing these things:
