BTS' Kim Taehyung reveals that he cried during J-Hope, Jungkook's solo concert performances; take a look
It’s not every day fans get to hear BTS’ V talk about tearing up but J-Hope’s post-military performance was one of those rare moments
If there’s one thing BTS has not been doing since their military return, it’s holding back on content. From behind-the-scenes moments to personal reflections, the members have been letting ARMY in on just about everything. Now, in a new interview with W Korea released today on August 11, V opened up about an unexpectedly emotional moment he experienced while watching his bandmates’ solo shows.
When asked to reflect on the members’ first-ever solo concerts, V shared, “First of all, the concert styles of the two members were so different. I think they were really fun. I remember Jin’s Rope It performance. And actually, I shed a few tears during Hobi’s performance. I quietly shed a tear by myself. During the duet with Jungkook, I got choked up. I was too embarrassed to say anything.” He added, “I watched the performance confidently.”

Whether it’s laughter backstage or tears during a heartfelt duet, their connection continues to inspire ARMY worldwide. And with more solo tours and group activities ahead, it’s moments like these that keep fans’ hearts full.
