BTS V (Kim Taehyung) was invited as a guest to tvN’s ‘You Quiz on the Block’ on the 6th and talked about various topics. In particular, after the broadcast, curiosity about the vehicle V gifted to his father increased.
V appeared to promote his first solo album, and shared the members’ reactions to it, saying, “I recorded at Jungkook’s house. Jungkook directed it.”
On this day, V shared the story of changing his father’s car after receiving his first payment. He recalled, “My dad has been in the clothing business for a long time. Since we kept driving, the distance was quite long. He said he had decided to change the car
And when V said, “Since then, I’ve changed the car once or twice,” Yoo Jae-seok was curious about the current car type. V responded with a smile, saying, “It’s the best one.”
In a personal interview, V said, “The amount of hardship ABBA must have been contained in the number of kilometers in the car. Her father’s hardships were contained in 500,000 km,” revealing filial piety.
He continued, “I think ‘I have to be a good son’ and try hard, but I can see that my dad is also working hard, thinking ‘I have to be a good father’. It hurt so much,” he revealed as an adult.
V explained, “That’s why I wanted to change the car even if my dad didn’t want to. I think I wanted to help my dad. He didn’t like it when he cried so maybe he cried quietly behind his back.”
As a result, curiosity about the car V gave to his father as a gift exploded among netizens. Recently, attention was paid to the fact that Hyundai Motor Company and BTS collaborated. This is because the fact that V showed interest in the ‘Genesis GV80’ at the time spread.
While filming BTS’ own entertainment program, ‘Run Bangtan’, at Hyundai Motor Company’s showroom, V was fascinated by Hyundai Motor’s concept song, Prophecy Design, and took several pictures with the car. The fact that V bought a ‘Genesis GV80’ after the filming was finished was posted on Hyundai Motor Group’s media channel HMG.
However, after that, a representative from Big Hit Music interviewed, “V did not purchase the GV80,” and the HMG Journal also corrected, “There were members who showed personal interest in the Hyundai Motor Company model during the filming process, but it did not lead to a purchase.” Also, at the time, a Hyundai Motors official said, “Even if the purchase is true, we cannot disclose the exact facts because it is personal information.”
An industry insider said, “It is true that BTS has done a lot in the global market with Hyundai Motor Company, but it is unknown whether they actually purchased a Hyundai Motor Company or Genesis brand vehicle. It is normal not to reveal it. Therefore, it would be appropriate to refrain from unreasonable speculation about personal matters.”
Meanwhile, the sound source of V’s first solo album ‘Layover’ and the music video of the title song ‘Slow Dancing’ will be released at 1:00 pm on the 8th.
