Countdown to Reunion: V's Touching Update

With only days left until his much-anticipated return, BTS member V (Kim Taehyung) has lovingly engaged with fans, igniting excitement ahead of his military discharge.

On June 1, V took to his Instagram Story, sharing a screenshot from a military countdown app that read "Sergeant Elio D-9," marking just nine days until he's back on June 10. The anticipation is palpable!

Curiosity Sparks Fun Engagement

V also swapped his profile picture to a charming shot of him in uniform feeding a sheep, leaving fans buzzing with curiosity. Later that day, he connected with fans in real-time on Weverse, the global fan community platform.

When a curious fan asked about the name "Elio" and the sheep in his photo, V humorously revealed, "That’s my English name from fairy tale classes! Yes, I bought grass for it!" His playful banter further endeared him to his loyal followers.

Excitement Builds for the Reunion

As the countdown continues, fans eagerly posed questions about his post-discharge plans. When one fan inquired if he was ready, he enthusiastically replied, "Yes! What do you want to do together?" His eagerness to reunite with them reflects his deep affection for the ARMY.

Another fan asked about his first plans after coming home, to which he responded sweetly, "I want to see ARMY right away! You’ve waited long enough — let me know what you want!" His words radiate warmth and sincerity.

A Heartfelt Farewell and a Joyful Return

Before enlisting on December 11, 2022, V shared a poignant message expressing how much he would miss his fans, saying, "Not being able to see ARMY is the hardest part. Let’s create more special memories when I return. I love you so much; please wait for me!"

Now, as his discharge day approaches, V's heartfelt prompt, "You waited, so what do you want?" beautifully encapsulates his genuine love for his fans. With this imminent return, the excitement and anticipation are building to a crescendo!
