As the BTS comeback era kicks off, all eyes are on V (Kim Taehyung)—a man of many faces: idol, artist, actor, fashion muse, and now, one of the world's top 3 most influential people on social media.
But while the lights shine brighter than ever, Taehyung’s recent late-night confession from Paris showed us something deeper: behind the global fame is a human still healing.
👑 V Ranks #3 Among Global Influencers
In July 2025, Taehyung officially outranked celebrities like Selena Gomez, Kylie Jenner, and even Taylor Swift to become the #3 most powerful global influencer, according to HypeAuditor.
- Followers: 68+ million on Instagram
- Engagement rate: 20.6% (insanely high for any global star)
- Influence: Fashion, music, art, and luxury brands like CELINE, Cartier, and LV can’t get enough of him
He’s the #1 Asian artist in this ranking—and the only K-pop idol in the top 5.
😔 “I Don’t Sleep Like Before”: An Honest Moment
While attending Paris Fashion Week in late June, V went live from his hotel. Soft-spoken and vulnerable, he shared this with fans:
“I don’t sleep like before. Even the smallest noise wakes me up.”
That quiet sentence sent ripples through ARMY. It was a glimpse into the lingering emotional impact of military service—something not often talked about openly. Fans trended #WeLoveYouTaehyung and #AlwaysWithV to show support.
🎨 The Artist Returns
Now that V has completed his military service, fans are anticipating more solo work soon. Here's what's buzzing:
- Possible second solo album (post-Layover)
- Collaboration rumors with international indie artists
- Return to acting? Whispers of new dramas are circulating
Whether he’s painting, photographing, composing jazz, or modeling in Paris, V is a universe unto himself.
💜 Why Taehyung’s Story Matters
Taehyung reminds us that true stardom isn’t about perfection—it’s about depth, honesty, and staying soft in a hard world. His influence is global, yes, but his appeal is deeply personal. He makes millions feel seen, loved, and inspired.
