Recently, V was announced as the first global ambαѕѕador of the кσяєαn cosmetic brand Tirtir, known for its viral Mask Fit Red Cushion Foundation. Right after V became Tirtir’s global ambαѕѕador, the brand drew significant attention on social media, showing just how successful they have been in connecting the global appeal of K-pop with the steady rise of K-beauty.

Taking advantage of the influence of their global ambαѕѕador, the brand quickly launched its first pop-up experience in Los Angeles from November 15 to 23. Naturally, V appeared as the main highlight of the event, along with several entertainment figures and many beauty influencers.

The “star of the night,” V, stood out with his mesmerizing visuals in a sleek blazer and a black tank top. He added a touch of drama to his minimalist look with a leopard-print scarf — a pattern he absolutely loves — along with layered pendants and necklaces as accessories.

From the moment V entered, all attention from the crowd at the event immediately shifted toward him. Celebrities attending the event continuously shared the videos they took of him on social media, expressing their amazement at his extraordinary handsomeness. Social media was completely abuzz with the BTS superstar’s dashing appearance at Tirtir’s event.

In particular, a video showing V’s reaction to a tricky challenge from a reporter at the event quickly went viral. Fans loved how smoothly and intelligently he handled the question — and most importantly, how he still maintained his adorable, lively energy.

Specifically, the reporter suddenly said to him, “Taehyung, if we make eye contact, we’re dating!” — a delulu-style joke that is quite popular among fans. However, V seemed to “shut down” the delusion by avoiding direct eye contact with the camera, shyly covering his eyes, and then making a V-sign in front of the lens so that his face went out of focus.

What’s remarkable is that he didn’t need to say a single word to turn down the “date” request, yet he was still far too handsome and cute for anyone to feel disappointed. D*mn it, we’re obsessed with him — and with this whole moment!

The video quickly spread across social media. The comments were filled with admiration for the world’s most handsome man and praise for his charming reaction.

Meanwhile, the reporter also received some criticism, with many saying the question was inappropriate. Even if the reporter intended to make the video on behalf of fans, it was still lacking in tact. Fans shared various opinions about the situation:

- “Taehyung said: ‘Eye contact? I don’t know her.’ Absolute king of dodging imaginary relationships

- Well she may think it’s cute but it’s not specially when is an interview. It’s not okay… But Taehyung dealt it so well

- Okay but what if I already made eye contact through the screen? Does that count?

- Not him being a TEASE instead to avoid eye contact. He is too handsome and cute

- He used his V fingers to say no. She was trying her cards game, but Tae said nope, not today girl.

- He's done with dating. Taehyung said I'm anti romantic. Meanwhile, what caught my attention the most was his radiant, striking handsomeness

- The almost rolling eyes. I mean you have the possibility of asking interesting questions but insteed are always these type ones...superficials

- Taehyung’s reaction was so smooth and adorable! His shy smile just melts my heart. He’s too handsome for words

- His cuteness and awkwardness in that moment made me fall for him all over again. Absolute king

- That question from the reporter was totally inappropriate, but V handled it like a pro. Respect!

- Seriously, why would the reporter even ask that? V’s reaction saved the moment, as always

- The reporter was out of line, but our boy stayed composed and adorable.
