A Korean netizen recently shared a heartwarming story about BTS member V, also known as Kim Taehyung, and his mother. The post, which quickly gained attention on social media, recounts a conversation the netizen had with Taehyung’s mother several years ago, when BTS was preparing to enter the U.S. market and was already popular in Korea. At that time the netizen was not familiar with the group or its members, but was struck by the anecdote the mother shared about her son’s childhood.
Taehyung’s mother recalled that her son often arrived late to elementary school because he would stop to observe flowers, ants and other small details along the way. Rather than scolding him, she asked the school to accommodate his nature, allowing him to be late as long as he eventually made it to class. The netizen found both Taehyung and his mother remarkable, noting that such an approach to parenting is not easy.
The story sparked a wave of appreciation from fans, who praised Taehyung’s gentle and loving nature. Many attributed his personality to the way he was raised, emphasizing his mother’s supportive approach as a significant factor in shaping him into a considerate adult. Fans also highlighted Taehyung’s sensitivity and perceptive nature as a child, observing that his parents understood his needs and allowed him to grow at his own pace.
In related news, Taehyung recently shared his 2025 Spotify Wrapped results, revealing that he listened to 4,611 songs and 27,729 minutes of music throughout the year. He was also recognized as Male Artiste of the Year at the Jupiter Music Awards and ranked fifth on Forbes Korea’s “Korean Idols of the Year” list. BTS is preparing for a spring 2026 return, with plans for their first group album in almost six years and a world tour to follow. The group’s upcoming activities are highly anticipated, and fans are eager to see what the future holds for Taehyung and the rest of the members.
