Even though V is currently serving in the military, he remains one of the hottest celebrities on social media. Any detail related to him excites fans.
Most recently, fans were surprised to discover that V made a cameo appearance in a popular Chinese drama. As soon as this news broke, discussions about his appearance quickly became a trending topic.
If you missed it, check out the details below along with some of ARMYs’ reactions:
The last time V acted in a drama was nearly a decade ago when he played Han Sung in Hwarang. His natural acting, comedic charm, and stunning visuals left a lasting impression on fans. Since then, au∂ιєnces have eagerly awaited his return to the small screen as actor Kim Tae Hyung.
However, given his demanding schedule as a singer, taking on acting roles has been nearly impossible for V. Over the past year, he has also been fulfilling his military service alongside his BTS bandmates, making his appearance in any drama highly unlikely.
But surprisingly, this has actually happened—in a recent Chinese drama!
That’s right! ARMYs were thrilled to spot V in a brief cameo in the trending Chinese drama The First Frost, which has gained mαѕѕive popularity across Asia. A low-resolution screenshot from the drama quickly went viral on social media. Despite being only 144 pixels, V’s unmistakable visuals were still incredibly clear, making it impossible for fans not to recognize him.
The viral image comes from episode 26, where the female lead’s phone screen displays a contact saved as “V1 Kang.” This profile picture was recognized by ARMYs as a photo from V's time on the reality show BTS in The Soop. His signature curly hair and blue ѕтяιρed suit are unmistakable.
This tiny detail sparked excitement among fans, leading many to start watching the drama just to catch the moment:
