Has Kim Taehyung aka V reached his target body weight? BTS star shares update with ARMY

Kim Taehyung took to Weverse and wrote, “Are you enjoying the holiday? I hope you have a great time during this long holiday!” The singer added, “I’ve been working out a lot in the military! It won’t be long now! I want to see you soon.”

V had enlisted for his mandatory military service in 2023. His discharge date is set for June 10, 2025. The decision by BTS to enlist in the military helped avert a sticky situation for South Korea's government.
