Looking back at memorable moments of BTS's pet V - Yeontan: 7 years in the blink of an eye
A series of adorable moments of Yeontan - V's (BTS) puppy - were shared by fans on various platforms. The puppy's passing was something fans could have predicted, but everyone was sad because they had watched this "little boy" grow up with V since he was a tiny "cotton ball". On the afternoon of December 2, V (BTS) made fans heartbroken when he announced that his beloved puppy - Yeontan - had passed away.

Yeontan first "debuted" to the public in December 2017, on the livestream of the oldest member Jin's birthday. Immediately after that, Yeontan "caused a storm" with her round, soft appearance. |
According to fans' speculation, "Yeontan" means charcoal briquettes used indoors, mainly for cooking and heating. Thus, V named this dog not only because the dog has a warm body, but also because it is a comfortable and peaceful place for him.
Around 2018, V made fans "melt" when he continued to show off his "son" in a livestream. Yeontan at that time was only tiny, having to run quickly following V's "so long" footsteps like a stuffed dog, both adorable and funny.
After that, Yeontan became hot again thanks to "uncle" j-hope. On the occasion of V also bringing Yeontan to the backstage, j-hope immediately gave the little dog a "training" course on the song Mic Drop to "become a shapeless person". Although they could not understand the dog's mood, fans told each other that Yeontan must have been "squealing" a little in his heart.
In 2023, the puppy made another "shock" when it appeared on the cover of the album Layover - V's solo debut album.

Not only that, Yeontan even became the first K-Pop idol's pet to have a fancam released by the station. |
On September 14, 2023, Yeontan appeared on the M! Countdown stage as a special guest. In the song Slow Dancing, the dog just walked around and looked around, but still received 2.2 million views, proving its position as a "real top-notch product" in the K-Pop idol pet village.

Since 2021, V has shared that Yeontan has had many health problems. The dog has a very narrow airway, causing difficulty breathing. Yeontan has therefore undergone many surgeries. Fans are currently continuously sending words of encouragement to V via social media.
