We don’t like to name a BTS favourite, that’s like picking between children or favourite chocolate bars, but it seems like the public has spoken.

Believe it or not, some people had yet to come across BTS before their Jimmy Fallon appearance (where have they been?!) but it’s never too late for the Army to expand, and it would seem these newbies have their eyes on V.

The singer, real name Kim Taehyung, became the unsung hero of the group when he wowed fans with his performance on the show, leaving the viewers at home calling ‘who is the guy in the green jacket’ and giving a lot of love for ‘the blonde one.’ That’s our V and yes he’s a cutie.

During his Fortnite dance challenge with Jimmy, his expert moves doing the flapper dance, the reanimated move, ride the pony, and of course the floss won him a whole new legion of fans.



After their appearance, Kim Taehyung trended on Twitter in New York at number 11, France at number 10, Singapore at number seven, and US at number five.

Fans also noted the 22-year-old’s beautiful deep voice that often has listeners swooning.

As well as being interviewed and taking part in the Fortnite challenge, V also proved his worth to his new fans when he and the rest of the group performed their new tracks Idol and I’m Fine.

During their chat with Jimmy, RM opened up about his speech for the UN, revealing he’d been super nervous.

‘I was so nervous,’ he said. ‘I’m holding up the paper and if you see I’m shaking. It was a big deal.’

When asked what the group’s message was, RM explained: ‘The message is about speaking yourself instead of letting other people speak to you, to truly know yourself, know who I am and what my voice is.

‘We want to stay humble and enjoy the ride.’
