BTS’s V Shocks Fans With Muscular Physique Ahead of June Military Discharge
BTS (Bangtan Sonyeondan) member V is making waves online with his sculpted physique as he prepares for military discharge on June 10. On June 3, bodybuilder Choi Hanjin shared a series of photos on Instagram, featuring V working out to his solo track ‘Slow Dancing’ as background music.
In the photos, V flaunts his toned body in a tight sleeveless workout top, highlighting his chiseled abs, defined waistline, and well-developed muscles. His transition into an even more charismatic figure during his military service has left fans in awe.
Choi Hanjin praised V’s discipline and intensity, stating, “To see these two young men, whom my wife used to watch in videos, right in front of me—it’s surreal. His calm yet solid energy and unwavering focus during training show his dedication. You can tell how well he maintained himself during military service just by looking at his body.”
Choi further added, “If the previous routine worked for you, let’s continue with it next time.” The photos also featured fellow BTS member Jung Kook and actor Song Kang, adding to the excitement. V and Jung Kook playfully posed by flexing their arms together, while in another photo, V and Song Kang flashed thumbs-up gestures, sparking curiosity about their friendship.
Following the reveal, the name KIM TAEHYUNG quickly topped the Worldwide Real-Time Trends. V’s fitness photos surged across Google Trends in over 50 countries including the United States, United Kingdom, France, and Canada, highlighting his enduring global impact even during his military service.
V enlisted in December 2023, joining the elite military police special mission unit under the 2nd Army Corps. He reportedly volunteered and passed through a selective recruitment process. Rising to the rank of sergeant early, V ranked first in both shooting and urban warfare drills, earning him a commendation for excellence in service and multiple anecdotes about his admirable character among fellow soldiers.
As June 10 approaches, anticipation builds among fans for V’s return—not just as a member of BTS—but now as a stronger, more mature artist ready to dominate once again.
