BTS V's Birthday is Right Around the Corner: Here's What Fans Have Planned

Distance won't stop ARMYs! Even though they are physically far, fans still have plans to celebrate BTS member V's birthday. Here is what to expect on BTS V's birthday.

Let's Learn About V

Prior to becoming BTS's V, the idol was known simply as Kim Taehyung. He was born on Dec. 30, 1995, making him 25 years old this year. V was born in Daegu, South Korea, and was raised in the Geochang Country. Most casual fans probably do not know that V actually has siblings; they are three siblings, with V being the oldest. He has a younger brother and sister.

Though V has wanted to be a singer ever since he was in elementary school, he thought he would end up becoming a farmer, as he was born to a family of farmers. He was raised by his grandmother for more than half of his life, as his parents were busy working trying to provide for the family. The male only fully realized his dream after he began learning the saxophone in early middle school.

Now full wanting to pursue a career in singing, V started taking dance lessons as well, as he believed all singers should know how to dance too. In the ninth grade, he followed his friends to a Big Hit Entertainment audition and was scouted by a rookie development staff. After getting permission from his parents, he auditioned for the company and was the only person from Daegu to pass!
