![Members of BTS are reportedly single – but that doesn't curb our curiosity. We want to know if there's a special someone making V smile.](https://filmdaily.co/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/bts-lede-1-1-1536x975.jpg)
Is BTS’s V smiling over a lucky fan? Inside the rumored relationship
Their angelic voices, beautiful smiles, amazing dance moves, and trendy outfits make it hard not to be obsessed with K-pop group BTS. Lucky for us, all the members of the seven-man group are single – or so it seems. When asked about their love lives, BTS members constantly contend ARMY is their only significant other; however, fans are beginning to wonder if this is actually true or not.
The harsh truth
In reality, K-pop artists are held to a higher standard compared to their Western counterparts. In fact, they’re often forbidden from disclosing personal details, with some even having a “no-dating” clause in their contracts.
The pop music industry is a huge business, and K-pop groups not only endorse big brands but also become big-time brands themselves. According to Korean music industry executive Bernie Cho, K-pop bands are viewed as “investments.”
“The K-pop industry has very smartly built itself around creating incredibly dedicated fan bases. Fans with enough time on their hands could see their favorite idol on a music show on Monday, a fan sign event on Tuesday, a radio show recording on Wednesday, and on and on,” says Jenna Gibson, a Korea specialist at the University of Chicago.
“Fan communities also take more personal responsibility for promoting their favorite group and keeping the group’s public image clean,” said Gibson. Supporting K-pop groups can include making donations in the members’ names to boost their public image or paying for independent advertisements promoting tours or new albums.
“In a perverse way, because fans put in so much effort to promote and publicize a good image of their idol, some of them get the idea that they should have some say over the idol’s actions and personal life,” Gibson added.
Trench coats & binoculars
If BTS were to reveal details of their personal lives, there could be a lot of angry & jealous fans out there – fans that could potentially hurt their career. Thus, it’s nearly impossible to find out facts about the BTS members’ personal lives, causing fans to come up with their own speculations & theories; BTS member “V” has been the latest target.
Earlier in 2020, V shared stories of himself riding the subway – but seeing a huge celebrity riding a dirty, old subway wasn’t the weird part. Fans noticed that another Korean star had also been on the subway that day: actress Kim Yoo-Jung. Coincidence? Fans don’t think so.
V & Yoo-Jung had been on the subway only hours apart causing some ARMYs to believe the two were involved in a secret romance; however, neither celebrity confirmed the rumors.
This wasn’t the first time V had been rumored to be in a secret romance. Fans began to speculate about his personal life when he kept mentioning a girl named Hi in his Instagram posts. Although it wasn’t obvious at first, the numerous posts with the name “Hi” convinced fans something was going on.
The facts alone don’t make for evidence of a secret relationship; however, fans began to notice V had begun wearing a ring. Many began to wonder if the ring was given to him by a special someone. Before the rumors got too wild, BTS’s management team cleared the air by announcing no secret dating was going on.
What does V have to say?
A pile of rumors has stacked up regarding V’s love life – but what does he have to say for himself?
V denies all the rumors regarding his love life. He says he used to be romantically active in his pre-debut days, but nowadays, he hasn’t found the time to date. V’s ideal type is a woman who could help him manage his finances because it’s easy to blow a lot of money when you’re a celebrity. Thus, he thinks money-managing savvy would be a valuable trait for his special person to have.
V also says he likes an affectionate girl. Although many fans have tried to match V up with other K-pop artists who fit his description, he hasn’t admitted to participating in these relationships – or any relationships, for that matter.

Although it’s hard to imagine BTS members as anything less than idols, we need to remember they’re humans who need privacy & respect just like us.

THIS IS BAD , WHY WOULD FANS WILL GET ANGRY AND JEALOUS , DON’T IDOLS HAVE THEIR OWN LIFE , THEY DO THERE CARRIER FOR MAKING US HAPPY AND WHEN IT’S OUR TURN TO MAKE THEM COMFORT THEN WE STEPPED BACK . ALTHOUGH IF OPPA V IS LOVING SOMEONE WHAT’S WRONG IN THIS DON’T HE HAVE HIS PERSONAL LIFE . IF SOMEONE INTERRUPTS IN OUR LIFE BOW WOULD WE FEEL .
October 16, 2020LOVE YOU BTS AND LOVE YOU ALL BROTHERS OF BTS. PURPLE YOU 💜💜💜💜 THE

Obviously yrr what if they are idols and they all are having fans it doesn’t mean that they should forget to enjoy the life. In the part of life love is normal and trust is important it is mandatory that we assure them that whatever happens we all are with them doesn’t matter with any relationship. It doesn’t look good they are considering us like a family and just because of our stupid behavior this trust can not be braked………….. Right !! 😊😊😊 we all are love of them we should maintain this strong trust !! 😊😊

We are fans so we shouldn’t interfere in their personal life. And they do date someone we should be happy for them may they have a life partner who would give them all the love and care in the world.

I really don’t have any problem if they are in relationship or anything because I’m happy if they are happy. Nothing is more important than their happiness.

If anyone thinks they can say if BTS can date or not get jealous is not a fan,plus they’re human beings and are some grown adults,and can do whatever they want and y’all can’t change that

I like how respectful this article is and it only scratches the surface of how hard it is to be a celebrity, lord knows some articles come up with crazy theories and spread them into “rumors” and that can hurt the images of celebrities. Overall it was interesting to read!

They should be allowed to date and make a life for themselves. Fans should be happy for them and just treasure them from afar if they have romantic lives. Their fans should want them to succeed without any other intentions. Let them be happy and be with someone they love or just like even if it’s just to have fun. They need something else in their lives other than being idols, so guys find someone and be happy.

If all of us Army love them as much as we show and say, then we should only wish for them to be happy, successful, and blessed with a partner and family that loves them as much as they deserve. 🥰💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

They may be anti fans who spread rumors like these 😶 bczzzz real fans will be happy if they hear anything about their relationships . It’s their personal life and they can do whatever they want to. They should be given a freedom to like someone and live their lives. Even though we are the fans but still we don’t have right on their personal rights and lives. They should be allowed to spend the lives in a way they want to spend and with whom they want to be. Real fans will always support them and be happy seeing them living a happy life . 😊😊 So it’s my request to all fans plzzz🙏don’t interfere in their personal lives they are humand tooo and they e also have privacy. They don’t always need to clarify things about them to fans 😊let them live freely and happily 😊😊 thnkuuu
October 17, 2020Wish you a happy happy life bts 🤗🤗

Thank you so much for add the last part about privacy and respect! People always seem to forget that it’s not their BUSSINESS who ANY member of BTS chooses to be with and if they wish to share that with us. The reason we are called ARMY is because we chose to love and respect them, not DIG INTO THEIR PERSONAL LIVES. They deserve as much privacy as you would want for your selves let’s not forget they are HUMAN BEINGS NOT OUR TOYS.

Let’s all remember why we are called ARMY, we are here to provide support, love, and a helping hand at any time for BTS. We are here to protect them to best of our abilities and that means LEAVING ANYTHING ABOUT THEIR PERSONAL LIVES ALONE UNLESS THEY CHOOSE TO DISCLOSE THAT INFORMATION TO US. Please y’all I really love these people, don’t destroy their careers because of your selfishness.

I know BTS loves ARMY, but Guy/Gals please remember, these guys are human and have feelings just like we do. So, let’s leave their personal lives to them and only them. Their career is on Fire and our job as Fans/Army is to support their career, love this beautiful journey, and encourage them during this time. Thank you guys for everything you do for your passionate fans.✌🏻
