Jin, SUGA, RM, j-hope, Jimin, V and Jungkook are not just members of the same band called BTS, they are friends who have spent over a decade together. Therefore, the bond between them is now like brothers in a family.
That's also the reason why the boys always protect other members in any situation so that their members don't get нυят. One of the admirable stories, when members do not hesitate to protect their brothers, is when V openly criticized an ARMY when this person mocked j-hope's visual.
Even if it was one of his fans, he couldn't bear it and stood up to defend his brother fiercely so that he wouldn't be нυят by the the joke
V is known as one of the idols with a straightforward personality and does not hesitate to express his thoughts to fans. He has repeatedly instructed ARMY on how to behave between fans and idols and to change their inappropriate behavior when they act impolitely.
Because of this personality of V, the relationship between fans and idols becomes closer and healthier. One of the ways V can do this is to directly speak during his live broadcast or comment on their posts on Weverse Live when he sees content that does not meet standards.
In particular, there was a time when V expressed his dissatisfaction and asked fans to stop making fun of j-hope's appearance, causing true ARMY to praise him. Specifically, that was the time V discovered an ARMY post on Weverse with an unpleasant meme photo of j-hope.
In that photo, j-hope has an unpretty expression because he is in a scared state. This person posted the article for humorous purposes but edited it in a ridiculous way and did not respect j-hope's visual. This article will also not include that image to protect j-hope and comply with V's request!
Therefore, as soon as he noticed that j-hope's photo was being ridiculed, V did not hesitate to leave a comment expressing his anger and asking this person to stop this action immediately, even if it was one person. V also emphasized that in the future he will not chat with fans who post "bizarre" photos like this.
V commented frankly under the post: "Please protect our hyung. From now on I won't reply to ARMYs that post such weird and bizzare pictures".
Obviously, Weverse is a good platform for fans and idols but there are fans who go too far. The line between what's funny and what's offensive isn't always clear, and V isn't afraid to show that fan exactly how offensive what they did was. V once again reminded fans that an idol's boundaries need to be respected.
Not only that, V's actions also warn those who intend to humiliate j-hope's appearance or make fun of any BTS member's appearance. Meanwhile, fans praised V for his straightforwardness and the way he protected j-hope from toxic fans:
