"HE'S SO PRECIOUS" — Fans react as BTS' Taehyung makes a brief appearance in Kakao group chat before exiting

On September 9, 2024, Kim Taehyung aka V of BTS surprised his fans after dropping in a random KakaoTalk group chat to interact with his fans. A day before, he did the same by joining a random fan group chat and introducing himself as Kim Taehyung of BTS. In response, fans didn't believe him and assumed that he was a regular online user who was trying to prank them.

So, the BTS idol clicked a mirror selfie in his military uniform and posted it in the group chat as proof. He shared that he was on a day off from his ongoing enlistment and was heading back to the military barracks. Then he came back on September 9 and talked to his fans in the same group.

As soon he rejoined the chatroom, he was stunned to see over 90,000 ARMYs waiting in the group chat to welcome him. Furthermore, the group chat admin started hiding messages to filter them and make it easier for Taheyung to talk to them.

The Love Me Again singer-songwriter expressed his gratitude before he exited the group and wrote,

"What is it, there are so many people. Have you already planned out what you're going to do if I come now? But there's so many, around 90,000. So, I can't read them all. Hi. Hey you don't have to hide them!! Byee. It's okay hahaha. Hahahaha. Now I have to go exercise! Take care everyone and I'll come back again. Byee." (as translated by Google Translate).

Fans found it hilarious and endearing to see the BTS star look surprised when he realized 90,000 admirers were waiting for him. One ARMY wrote on X,

"HE'S SO PRECIOUS"

Others underscored Taehyung's willingness to walk the extra mile to interact with his fans.

"Taehyung is not your ordinary idol. He will go the extra mile to interact with his fans. Sweetest munchkin ever. I love him to bits, I love him tons," one fan wrote.

"Our tae always liked to find ways to interact n get to know armys on a more personal level from rookie days n m glad he’s stil d same. Same wid other members always finding tym to connect. Theyr so endearing," another fan said.

"Humble King, still in disbelief there's millions of people supporting him. You deserve all the love Tae!" another fan added.

The KakaoTalk group chat admin/moderator was lauded by several fans for removing some messages from the group so that Taehyung wouldn't feel uncomfortable.

"Bro has no idea of what the internet went through when he decided to share that pic," one fan joked.

"It's honestly so nice how Armys always priotize BTS members. The moderator hiding some messages so that Tae can feel comfortable is so sweet. I mean there r times when things can go worng so taking precaution is great," another fan said.

"idk why this reminds me of that one show they had in Japan where they were doing the amibam wave and ARMYs were doing it so fast, the boys had to tell them to stop," one other fan joked.
