BTS’s V Returns To Social Media With A Heartfelt Request For ARMYs

He hung around to interact with them.

BTS member V is currently fulfilling his mandatory military service in the elite “Special Duty Team” (SDT), the anti-terrorism unit directly under the supervision of the Blue House.

Having enlisted in late December last year, most of V’s service tenure is still left. While fans are waiting eagerly for his return with all the other BTS members, it seems that the feeling is mutual on both sides. On March 2, KST, V stopped by social media platforms to interact with ARMYs and give them a few updates.

First, he posted a story on his individual Instagram account with an old dance practice video of all seven members together. In the caption, he requested fans to keep BTS in their hearts while they are away.

The combination of the video and the caption immediately had ARMYs emotional, and they rushed to reassure the idol that all the fans are still waiting patiently for their return.

 

One such post on the fan community Weverse, caught the eye of the singer, and in response, he expressed that he was relieved to know his feelings were not one-sided.

OP: Taehyung-ah
I’m thinking of [you] as naturally as breathing
[You’re] always sparkling in my heart, I won’t forget [you]

So be healthy and comfortable. I’m still here without changing.

V: Then thats a relief~ thought it was just one sided for me.

V continued to interact with a few more fan posts on the platform, giving his progress updates in his goal to bulk up while in the military.

OP: Taehyung-ah is the exercise going well? Are you doing well ?

V: Wait just a teenie bit, okay? Because in a years time, I’m going to just lose weight and film ultimate muscle man 2!

Given that he is expected to be discharged from his duties on June 10, 2025, it is highly possible that ARMYs might be welcoming a majorly beefed-up V for the next chapter of BTS. The question is, are we even ready?
