BTS V‘s recent activities during his military service are captivating fans worldwide. On March 15th, V shared a glimpse into his life in uniform, visiting a coffee brand store he endorses with the playful inquiry, “Hi, Compose?” Despite being half-hidden by a mask and showcasing a shorter hairstyle, V’s charming visuals remained unmistakable.
Moreover, V’s presence was also spotted on a fellow service member’s social media, suggesting a group outing. His comrades celebrated the release of his new song with a party, highlighting, “Congrats on the new song today, Taehyung.” V, holding a cake and sharing laughs with his fellow soldiers, drew attention to their strong camaraderie.
The photos also spotlighted V’s physical transformation since enlisting. Before joining the military in December last year, he had announced during a live broadcast, “I’ll build up my stamina. I’ve lost weight to 62kg but will increase it to 86kg,” setting an ambitious goal. Later, on February 14th, he updated fans via Weverse, “Here’s a mid-report. Achieved 72.5kg. Will be back. Salute.”
On this day, V released his new digital single FRI(END)S, a sweet confession song perfect for spring, which dominated the iTunes Top Songs chart in 87 regions as of 7 AM on March 16th KST.
His fellow BTS member Jungkook also shared a rare update on his military life on March 16th. Posting on Weverse, he greeted the fans, “ARMY, how have you been? I am doing well.” He continued, sharing his diligent routine, “I’ve been working out hard. I’ve been cleaning thoroughly up to the ceiling. And I’m also cooking well,” hinting at his duty as a military cook.
His special affection for ARMY was evident as he expressed, “It’s already mid-March. I’ll visit you again. I miss you a lot. Unity!” showcasing his ever-resilient charm.
