Family story revealed after 10 years

BTS' V recently appeared with RM on the YouTube comedy channel 'BDNS' and revealed for the first time a family story that had been kept completely private.

V recalled his childhood by talking about his younger sister. According to him, his younger sister grew up wearing designer clothes because she was the only daughter in a large family, but he did not. V humorously confessed, “I never thought that was a problem, but when I saw my younger brother’s nice clothes, my clothes were a bit like that.”

Hot debate within the fandom

This statement attracted attention in an unexpected way. There was surprise among fans that this was the first time V had mentioned his younger sister on air, but some began to analyze that this story conflicted with the previously known background of V's growth.

Meanwhile, there was a perception among ARMY that V spent his childhood with his grandparents who farmed and grew up in an environment that was not financially well-off. However, claims were made that the statement that the younger sister wore designer clothes did not fit with this 'poor family theory'.

On the other hand, some fans raised their voices of criticism, saying that this analysis itself was problematic. It is pointed out that it is not appropriate to excessively speculate and define a celebrity's private life and family environment.

Family privacy of BTS members

BTS members have maintained honest communication with their fans for over 10 years since their debut, but have strictly maintained privacy regarding their families. V's remarks this time are therefore being regarded as even more unusual.

Meanwhile, fellow group member J-Hope has also recently been at the center of controversy on social media after appearing on YouTube, and interest in BTS members' media exposure and fandom reactions is growing again.
