On this day, V threw the ceremonial first pitch at the game between the LA Dodgers and the Cincinnati Reds held at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, USA. He was also seen sharing a warm hug with נαραиese baseball legend Ohtani before the game began.

When this special photo was released, fans in кσяєα, the U.S., and נαραи responded enthusiastically, calling it “the meeting of GOAT and GOAT”!

Alongside this particularly impressive moment for baseball fans, V’s appearance became the focus of global attention thanks to his flawless bare face, handsome smile, and athletic physique. Although this was V’s first time taking on the role of throwing the ceremonial first pitch in a game, he did it very well and truly shined.

Every moment of the K-pop superstar at Dodger Stadium was closely followed by the au∂ιєnce and media, all the way until he left. On social media, V’s name and the event remained at the top of trending and hot search lists, while hundreds of domestic and international articles reported on the event, proving his endless fame.

While V overwhelmed netizens with his popularity, he himself was also surprised by his fans. A video capturing the moment V reacted in astonishment, even covering his mouth with his hand when he saw soмєтнing behind him, quickly went viral on social media.

You can clearly see his amusing reaction to what he saw, and even the friend sitting next to him burst into laughter when turning back to look. It must have been soмєтнing quite remarkable!

As speculations arose, some fans denied the theory that V had seen the airplane project with a 60-meter-long banner carrying "One & Only My Superstar V" by the fanclub VBAR, as that project had already ended before the game began.

Meanwhile, the most widely supported speculation, according to accounts from some fans who were present at the stadium, was that it might have been the moment V noticed many ARMYs wearing jerseys and hats with the number 95 and “Taehyung” — his real name.

V himself was surely overwhelmed by the support of ARMYs, from the cheering projects at the stadium to the live chants. Many fans came to the stadium solely to see him throw the ceremonial first pitch and cheer him on, rather than focusing on the game.

ARMYs laughed at V’s adorable reaction but were just as proud, knowing that their love for him had been witnessed:

- My heart is so full. Thank you to everyone who went to support him 

- My baby deserves all the love and more

- He still doesn’t know he’s V. Te big guy known by 1 letter

- Why are you so ѕнσ¢кed?!! Do you not know banners are sold out because of you - Kim Taehyung. ARMYs did good job

- I can’t believe how powerful ARMY is! Seeing all those jerseys with 95 and ‘Taehyung’ made me emotional too. No wonder V was ѕнσ¢кed

- The way he found the entire stadium turned into his fans… goosebumps! I felt the love even through the screen

- V’s reaction was literally my reaction too. ARMYs went all out and the support was overwhelming. I’m so proud to be part of this fandom

- His hand covering his mouth… so precious. He really wasn’t expecting THAT much love

- Dodger Stadium turned into ARMY Stadium for a night. Taehyung deserves every bit of this love
