BTS member V, also known as Kim Taehyung, has once again captured the hearts of Indian ARMY after being spotted in a shirt from an Indian brand, making fans beam with excitement.
The world-renowned figure, who recently garnered media attention for tossing the ceremonial first pitch during a Los Angeles Dodgers game, made a smooth return to South Korea. V accessorised his ensemble with stylish accessories and a beanie, wearing a cool ivory white shirt with jeans and a basic undershirt.
The fact that the shirt was from the Delhi-based Indian design firm Kartik Research added even more significance to this ensemble for Desi BTS fans. The brand immediately brought their craft to the attention of the world by reposting images of V wearing their hand-embroidered item on Instagram.
Kartik Research specialises in menswear and is well-known for its modern takes on vintage designs, frequently incorporating elaborate details like hand embroidery. In addition to showcasing his unique sense of style, V's decision to wear their design brought attention to Indian craftsmanship worldwide.
Fans were quick to celebrate this moment online, expressing how proud they felt seeing their idol don an Indian label. Many took to X to gush about the look.
One fan wrote, "Taehyung wearing shirt from an Indian brand ‘Kartik Research’ oh my Indian heart. And he looks so beautiful look at his eyes." Others shared how meaningful it was to see a superstar like V embrace Indian fashion, calling it a proud moment for Indian ARMY.
As they prepare for their eagerly anticipated new album, V has reconnected with the other members of BTS, including RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, and Jungkook, in the United States. The project will have its roots in hip-hop, the genre that initially made them famous, signifying a return to their origins.
Adding to the excitement, BTS is also planning a world tour in 2026 following the release of the album, making fans worldwide eagerly count down the days.
