BTS V (real name Kim Tae-hyung) opened an official TikTok account, wowing fans around the world.

V officially joined TikTok on the 13th under the username @tete_kimv. According to foreign media, V's account exceeded 434,000 followers in just a few hours after its opening, and exceeded 1 million as of the afternoon of the same day. BTS members J-Hope and Jungkook were among the first followers, which made headlines.

The process of fans discovering V's account also drew attention. On the 12th, a day before the account was opened, Jungkook unfollowed most of the accounts on his TikTok following list and left only the official accounts of J-Hope and BTS. The next day, fans noticed at once that it was V's account as they discovered that a new account had been added to Jungkook's following list.

Fan @i_am_AnkitaD burst into laughter, saying, "How can you get to know V's TikTok through Jungkook and know Jungkook's Instagram through Taehyung?" Fan @heyFeera also responded, "Thank you j-hope and JK for 'leaking' Taehyung's account."

There is also a background that further raises fans' expectations. V and Jungkook previously expressed their intention to challenge together when a fan suggested a TikTok dance challenge in an interview with GQ. In response, fans are excited about the expectation that the realization of the challenge will be soon over V's joining TikTok. @everythingTaeSg wrote, "Finally! I think there's going to be a lot of dance challenges. I'm looking forward to it," he wrote, and @rosymono couldn't hide his excitement, saying, "The TikTok challenge is coming, I'm totally ready." @kiii9ina99 wrote, "Be careful, tiktokker taehyung is coming!!The words "!" represented the fans' expectations.

With V's joining, three BTS members have TikTok personal accounts, following J-Hope and Jungkook. Attention is focusing on whether V's TikTok activities will further heat the comeback ahead of the release of his fifth full-length album "ARIRANG" on March 20.
