Known for their sincere and close relationship with each other, the BTS members have built friendships over the past decade and even forever. Their friendship is even better even when they don't live in the same dorm.
Even V once shared his thoughts on the members' relationship as well as the connection between BTS and ARMY. His sharing will surely move you.
BTS is known for their enduring friendship and the sacred number 7. Whenever they separate for just a moment, as in individual vlogs, each of them immediately refers to the others.
This makes ARMYs really admire and move because they always keep a close relationship. But actually, more than friendship and work relationship, BTS has formed an affection like a family.
Specifically, V once delved into the “non-business” relationship between the boys. From the moment he meets them during the first difficult time, he treats them not only as colleagues but also as family.
V shared: "We formed a solid rapport because we got our start with a small agency. My mindset was also very different. From that point on, I thought of my group as a new family".
V also mentioned that besides the support of his family, the members are also a great source of motivation for him. The members have always been by his side to understand and comfort him through all difficulties.
V said: "Many people already know this, but what my father used to say is, ‘It’s no big deal!’ and that still gives me strength to this day. Also, my groupmates tell me that I can lean on them and talk to them whenever I’m having a hard time. When I’m struggling, they comfort me as Kim Taehyung, not V."
This real relationship doesn't just exist between the members - It extends to their love for their fans. V confessed that he and the members wanted to connect with ARMY on a deeper level - a communication of hearts, not simply communication between idols and fans.
He honestly said: "I want to be close friends with the members of ARMY, and I talk to them on Weverse whenever I have a problem or something I want to share. This is how I want to interact all the time — I don’t like a business-like approach to anything."
V even said that he considers his close relationship with his fans to be "fate" and something that greatly influences his life. That's right, because ARMYs and him and BTS have been together since they had nothing in their hands until they climbed to the top of the world.
And finally, V once mentioned that what he currently dedicates to ARMY is not for business purposes but for: "I take photos because I like to, I do things because I like them and I approach people because I like them. I accept that you sometimes need a business mindset, but I’m not very good at that. That’s my weakness."
“Because I’m loved by many, I want to share that love,” V shared, returning the great love he receives from fans in any way he can. Really, even if V doesn't reveal these secret words, we all know that he has a huge affection for BTS and ARMY. The strong connection between us over the past decade proves this!
