An Overseas Student Speaks Out About The Difference Between V Online And In Real Life After Seeing Him In Person For The First Time

As expected, wherever and whenever V appears, that place instantly becomes the center of attention! Paris is now drawing mαѕѕive attention from fans and global media as BTS’s superstar has arrived, ready to attend CELINE’s fashion show during Paris Fashion Week 2025.

On the very evening he landed in the fashion capital, V lit up the streets with his flawless visuals in a long overcoat and a black turtleneck sweater, exuding the aura of a true world-clαѕѕ star. Escorted by CELINE’s luxury cars and a team of bodyguards, he looked every bit like a young, wealthy CEO out for a stroll.

Since the main event has yet to begin, V had some free time to enjoy the city — he was even spotted having dinner with the rookie boy group TWS.

Although the spotlight has now shifted to Paris, fans still can’t stop talking about V’s airport look from yesterday at Incheon Airport. A recent post from a Chinese student studying in кσяєα, who shared an honest review of V’s visuals after seeing him in person at the airport, has added even more buzz online.

The student wrote on her personal account with all her excitement: “Now I finally understand why everyone says Kim Taehyung isn’t photogenic. Holy sh*t—he’s so tall, so handsome, and so insanely captivating in real life. He’s beautiful to the point of being unreal ahhhhh. The difference between how he looks online and in person is just crazy. Online, he looks like a perfectly sculpted doll, but in real life—oh my god—he’s tall, magnetic, and so overwhelmingly attractive that I literally just wanted to run up and hug him.”

That day, not only the original poster but also the media and fans present were completely stunned by V’s unreal beauty the moment he stepped out of the car. V pulled off a clαѕѕic look by pairing a CELINE checkered shirt with a loosely tied black necktie, perfectly embodying his signature mix of charm and cuteness.

V’s visuals have long been recognized globally — he has repeatedly topped international rankings of “The World’s Most Handsome Faces.” His refined, clαѕѕic features and flawless proportions are often described as a universal beauty, transcending both Eastern and Western aesthetics. Experts also note that V’s appeal isn’t just about his looks — it’s the unique aura and presence that set him apart.

Echoing the same sentiment, ZEROBASEONE’s Zhang Hao recently mentioned a similar experience when host Jojo Wright asked him, “Have you ever fallen for a celebrity?”. He immediately said that, “It was during a recording of Inkigayo. I once saw BTS’s senior member V without any makeup on, and I was really ѕнσ¢кed by how handsome he looked even barefaced.” Jojo Wright agreed, saying, “He’s really handsome. I think so too.”

In addition, four out of seven members of ENHYPEN — Jake, Sunwoo, Jay, and Sunghoon — have openly admitted that V is their role model and that they aspire to be as perfect as he is.

Whether fully dressed up or barefaced, V’s visuals are universally acknowledged. Fans and netizens couldn’t help but nod in agreement with these remarks, further praising the timeless visuals of the BTS superstar:

- He’s giving me whiplash. He looks so gorgeous everywhere, everytime

- He always fine but parishyung is soмєтнing different. The city goes well with his vibe

- Whenever a fansite follows him around to take photos, they always whisper, “He’s really not that photogenic". Not photogenic?! If that’s what “not photogenic” looks like, then what would he look like if he were? His visuals in pictures are already insane — even AI couldn’t beat you, Taehyung!

- He’s “not photogenic,” yet every single photo of him looks that stunning — if he were actually photogenic, he’d probably turn into a literal god. I just want to see him in real lifeeeee!

- At this rate, if I ever see him in person even once, I might be obsessed with him for the rest of my life

- He’s seriously breathtaking — like, he actually radiates this aura. I’ve seen him in person before, and it really felt like he and everyone else were from two completely different worlds. He’s like an angel from heaven, and we’re just ordinary humans down here, haha

- After all these years, he’s still the legendary visual of K-pop — just one look at him and my heart races, my hands and legs go weak

- Has there ever been a time when V wasn’t at the peak of his visuals? There are no ups and downs — he’s just always handsome

- Every day feels new and almost magical — he somehow manages to showcase his visual in so many different styles

- V looks so much more handsome in real life — his features are so three-dimensional that photos and videos can only capture about one-tenth of his real beauty.

- He’s always been good-looking, but after returning from the military, there’s an even deeper, more mature aura about him.
