W Korea Reveals That V Will Return As An Actor, Starring In A Movie Before Enlisting

As the only member of BTS to ever have the opportunity to officially start acting, V made a strong impression in the movie Hwarang and revealed his acting ability in many of the group's artistic products. However, V's first movie was from 2016 and until now, actor Kim Taehyung has not returned to any movie that fans crave.

But fortunately, before saying goodbye to his fans for 2 years to serve in the m̷i̷l̷i̷t̷a̷r̷y̷, he gave his fans a surprise gift. That is, he will act in a "movie" as an actor after more than 7 years. This news was just revealed in an article on the 14th of this month by W ̾k̾o̾r̾e̾a.

Below is the news about V's return to acting and fans' reactions to this remarkable news:

V's acting talent has been proven since 2016 through his role as Han Sung in the movie Hwarang. Since then, as his idol career has grown, V's reputation has become increasingly prominent and has become a top face that many directors wish to have him appear in cinematographic works.

However, during his busy period with BTS, V did not have a free schedule to participate in filming. Therefore, fans have been looking forward to his acting for the past 7 years. But recently, on December 11, V performed his m̷i̷l̷i̷t̷a̷r̷y̷ service, so this fan's wish seems to last for at least another 2 years until he is discharged.

Fortunately, W ̾k̾o̾r̾e̾a knows how to "comfort" ARMYs by providing news about actor V's return during this difficult time. Specifically, on December 14, W ̾k̾o̾r̾e̾a clarified that V will appear in "a movie rather than a music video" of IU. This news quickly made fans look forward and curious about this collaboration project of the two actors - idols.

Specifically, IU's EDAM Entertainment made a statement when conducting an interview with W ̾k̾o̾r̾e̾a: "It's not a music video, it's a movie". Along with that, W ̾k̾o̾r̾e̾a also added that it will be interesting to see Kim Taehyung and IU share the same frame as well as the aesthetic they will bring with their outstanding visual and soulful vocals. The article mentioned: "Good news amidst the disappointment! Although all BTS members are on military leave, we can meet V in the first half of next year. It's through IU's new song. It is said that right before enlistment, V filmed the music video for IU's new song, which will be released for the first time in about two years. It's already driving me crazy to see what kind of scene these two musicians, who stand out and shine so brightly even when alone, would create."

Previously, on December 5, IU's EDAM Entertainment confirmed V's participation in one of the Hotel Del Luna actress's upcoming music videos. She is also expected to release a new album in the first half of next year. Not only that, the management company also said that because V quickly enlisted in the army in mid-December, they arranged to film the MV in advance to fit his schedule, even when news of IU's upcoming album wasn't announced. 

When this news was released, fans were really eager to see actor Kim Taehyung's acting after 7 years:
