Why V’s Cameo on YouTube’s ‘Gym Jong-Kook’ Stole the Show
BTS’s V brings laughter with his surprise voice cameo for Haha’s album promotion
A Star-Studded Cameo
On October 19, fans were taken by surprise when BTS’s V made a voice appearance on Kim Jong-kook’s YouTube channel, ‘Gym Jong-Kook.’ Appearing alongside Haha, the episode also featured bodybuilder Ma Seon-ho. The highlight, however, was undoubtedly V’s unforgettable voice cameo, which elicited laughs and excitement among viewers.
Haha Promotes New Album
The main purpose of Haha’s appearance was to promote his new album, alongside his son, Dream. Describing the content, the team at ‘Gym Jong-Kook’ mentioned, “We had some ‘world star’ friends of Haha dropping by to send their support for his new song ‘Sunny Day.’ We appreciate all the encouragement!”
An Unexpected Guest
As promotions went on, Kim Jong-kook could be seen holding back laughter and teasing Haha about a special guest, hinting at V’s presence. “Could you congratulate Haha on his album release?” Kim Jong-kook asked, leading to V’s voice cheerfully exclaiming, “Congratulations on the album, Haha hyung!” followed by a thumbs up. Haha, caught off guard, could only smile brightly while making a ‘V’ sign with his fingers, refraining from explicitly mentioning V’s name.
Past Connections
Haha recalled fond memories with V, reminiscing about how V once shared Haha’s song on Twitter, stating, “When I was young, this song gave me a lot of comfort.” He praised Haha’s performance at MBC’s ‘Infinite Challenge’ where Haha’s song ‘Little Kid’s Story’ was featured. Interestingly, V’s Twitter post referenced Haha’s song lyrics, which include “Feeling BTS like V,” a sweet nod to BTS’s influence.
V’s Charisma
Haha also recounted how BTS, including V, appeared on ‘Yaman TV’ in 2015, where he was awestruck by V’s good looks, often exclaiming, “You’re really handsome.” It’s clear that the mutual admiration between Haha and V is long-standing and endearing.
Fans’ Anticipation
It’s worth noting that this installment of ‘Gym Jong-Kook’ was filmed prior to V’s enlistment, hence only his voice made it to the broadcast. Nonetheless, fans are eagerly anticipating a full appearance by V on the show in the near future.
In a blend of humor and fondness, this episode of ‘Gym Jong-Kook’ showed the charming rapport between V from BTS and Haha, reinforcing the spirit of camaraderie in the Korean entertainment industry.
