BTS’ V, also known as Kim Taehyung, has once again captured the hearts of fans worldwide with a surprising update from his military service. On March 22, 2025, V posted a gym selfie on Weverse, showing off his toned muscles and revealing that he lost 10 kg. This update follows earlier news of him gaining over 10 kg (22 lbs) after enlisting. Fans are now buzzing with excitement over his BTS V fitness journey and the secret behind his impressive six-pack abs.
A Transformation in the Making: V’s Weight Loss Journey
Before starting his BTS V military service, V was known for his slim build, weighing about 62 kg (137 lbs) at 179 cm (5’10”). But in February 2025, he shared that he had bulked up to 72.5 kg (160 lbs), jokingly aiming for 86 kg as part of a “bulk-up competition” with BTS members RM, Jimin, and Jungkook. Now, with his latest BTS V weight loss of 10 kg, he’s back to a leaner frame.
“But recently…! I lost a lot of weight, right? I lost 10kg… Hahahaha, I’ll try harder,” V wrote on Weverse.
Fans speculate that V might be following a “bulk and cut” process—a fitness technique where you gain muscle by eating more, then lose fat to reveal a defined physique. Whatever the method, his hard work is clearly paying off!
Charming Fan Moments on Weverse
V didn’t just share his transformation; he also delighted fans with his playful BTS V Weverse update. One fan noticed his change, commenting, “Taehyung-ssi, Why did your body become so big? You seemed like a baby bear but you’ve just become a bear now. Oh my god, being handsome amongst all this too. Also what’s with the Pororo?”
V’s response? Pure gold. He explained, “That (Pororo sticker) came out of a yakgwa, they sell it at the convenience store.. my adorable junior who’s 10 years younger than me, bought me yakgwa so I go around with (the sticker) pasted (on my phone).” Fans couldn’t get over how cute this little detail was.
The fun didn’t stop there. When asked if he sings at the military base, V cheerfully replied, “Of course!” Another fan said, “I wanna see Taehyung so bad,” to which he quipped, “I wanna see J-Hope’s concert so bad…” These small exchanges show how much he misses his BTS brothers and his ARMY.
The Six-Pack Abs Secret: Shy But Proud
The highlight for many was V’s subtle tease about his BTS V six-pack abs. When a fan boldly asked, “Oppa, can I see your six pack belly?” V responded shyly, “It’s okay on its own.. it’s just that I’m shy/embarrassed.” His modesty only made fans more curious!
Later, when a fan asked for weight loss tips, V shared his simple secret: “If you eat less, there’s weight loss… Fighting! Try eating a meat-focused diet!” This hint suggests he’s been sticking to a protein-heavy diet to sculpt his toned muscles while shedding the extra weight.
Fans Can’t Get Enough of V’s Updates
V’s fans showered him with love, with one pleading, “Please give a lot of photos. It’s not enough.” He replied, “I’m at the base right now… If I could, I’d give you 100 selcas…” His words show how much he values his connection with ARMY, even from afar.
As BTS members continue their military duties, these rare updates from V keep fans going. His latest post proves he’s staying healthy, active, and as charming as ever during his BTS V military service.
