If you are a fan of BTS, you probably know that V is one of their most popular members. But did you know that he is also the most talked-about entertainer in Korea right now? According to the RACOI Analysis, V topped the list of the “Most Mentioned Entertainment Performer” in the first week of May, beating out other famous celebrities and idols. This is not surprising, considering his amazing skills and charisma as both a singer and an actor.
V, whose real name is Kim Taehyung, debuted with BTS in 2013 and has since become one of the most influential artists in the world. He has released several solo songs under BTS’s name, such as “Stigma”, “Singularity”, and “Inner Child”, which showcase his unique voice and style. He also participated in the soundtrack for the historical drama Hwarang: The Poet Warrior Youth in 2016, where he also acted.
But V is not only a talented musician. He is also a rising star in the TV industry. He recently starred in Jinny’s Kitchen, a Korean variety show which followed Lee Seojin as he ventured to Mexico to run a Korean street food restaurant there. V was an intern at the restaurant who often got into trouble, but also amused and impressed with his adorable antics and hard work. The show was a huge success and received positive reviews from critics and viewers alike. It was also streamed on Amazon Prime for international fans who wanted to see V’s acting skills.
Being a part of ‘Jinny’s Kitchen’ gave Taehyung the opportunity to showcase his endearing personality and wit to an audience beyond the realm of K-pop, solidifying his position as a popular figure in the entertainment sphere.
The RACOI rating system is widely respected as the most credible chart for actors and entertainers. The system gauges the level of public interest in a celebrity by analyzing factors such as social media engagement and viewership ratings.
Moreover, Taehyung has been topping “Good Data’s” list of the most talked-about non-drama TV appearances for several weeks. He has also earned the title of the “Main Character of K-culture” due to his contribution in promoting Korean cuisine through the show.
With his versatile talents and charming personality, V has proven that he is more than just a member of BTS. He is a global entertainer who can dominate any field he chooses.
