The wait is over for millions of fans worldwide. Kim Taehyung, globally known as V, the charismatic member of K-Pop superstar group BTS, was discharged from South Korea’s mandatory military service today, June 10, 2025. His return has ignited a massive euphoria among the “ARMY” (BTS’s fandom), who have been eagerly awaiting this moment.
The widely circulated image shows V with a refreshed look and a physique that hasn’t gone unnoticed. Dressed in a casual outfit—a black short-sleeved t-shirt and dark shorts—Taehyung showcases his arms, notably toned and with prominent veins, a detail that has set social media ablaze. His relaxed and confident demeanor, posing next to CELINE cardboard cutouts and an impressive bouquet of purple flowers, symbolizes not only his return to civilian life but also the beginning of a new chapter in his artistic career.
V’s discharge, along with that of RM (BTS’s leader), marks a significant milestone in the group’s progression towards their highly anticipated reunion. Although agency Big Hit Music has urged fans not to gather at military bases for security reasons, the enthusiasm has been undeniable, with expressions of support through global donations and fan-organized events.
During his service, Taehyung not only fulfilled his duties but also demonstrated his commitment and adaptability. His return has reignited conversations about BTS’s future projects, and fans are already speculating about new music, performances, and appearances by the full group. V’s image is a clear indication that he is ready to reclaim his place on global stages, with an even more impactful presence.
This return is not just entertainment news but a significant cultural event. BTS’s influence transcends music, and every move by its members is closely followed by millions. Taehyung’s image, healthy and vibrant, is a message of hope and excitement for all who await the reunion of the seven BTS members and their return to the pinnacle of the music industry.
