BTS V looks like Mr Darcy according to ARMYs in his recent Photo-folio series
The concept film and teaser photos earned rave reviews from fans, making them incredibly excited for it.
For his solo concept, BTS V opted for an exemplary retro image of a British gentleman of the 19th century who is an old-soul romantic. However, the Sweet Night singer has reinterpreted the concept to his own taste.
It includes everything one sees in classic English books like Pride and Prejudice - riding a horse, having the quintessential cup of tea, soaking in the sun and a trip to tend to himself.
The Sweet Night singer wanted the Photo-folio series to play out like a silent film from the yesteryear era. Fans have declared that he looks like Mr Darcy of Pride and Prejudice and have taken to social media to share their reactions about the classic Photo-folio series.
In other news, V has been confirmed to star in the spin-off of Youn’s Kitchen and will be joining his Wooga Squad members Park Seo-joon and Choi Woo-sik.
The spin-off is produced by PD Na Young-suk and is titled Seo Jin’s where V and his friends will be managing a Korean restaurant in a foreign country. The broadcast is expected to air sometime in 2023.
