BTS V and IU Spotted Dining Together; Fans Speculate Birthday Celebration
This is not the first time V and IU have been seen together. Earlier this year, they starred in IU’s music video Love Wins All, where they played lovers in a dystopian world. Their chemistry in the video was widely praised.
V also attended IU’s concert in September 2024 while on military leave. He shared photos from the event on Instagram, showing his support for her. Their continued friendship has led to speculation about a possible future collaboration.
IU recently announced her new album Flower Bookmark 3, set to release on May 27. Some fans wonder if V might be involved in the project. Others think their meeting could simply be a friendly catch-up.
Neither IU’s nor V’s agencies have confirmed the details of their meeting. However, fans are happy to see their friendship grow. Many hope they will work together again soon.
“Are we getting another Taejun collab soon? I see the film guy & V both wearing a pink flower in their hair? They even posted a flower in the caption. Today I see IU’s Flower Bookmark 3. There go those pink flowers again. Was the invisible flower on purpose? Are we getting some form of collab?” – an X user commented.
“Okay but Taehyung and IU? What are they cooking exactly??? Why do I lowkey feel a collab or some secret project is about to DROP?” – another fan remarked.
V is currently serving in the military and is expected to be discharged in June 2025. IU is busy with her upcoming album and drama projects. Despite their busy schedules, fans appreciate their supportive friendship.
The viral photo has reignited interest in their past collaborations. Their Love Wins All music video remains a fan favorite, with many hoping for a sequel or new project.
