BTS’s V (Kim Taehyung) shared a warm and romantic greeting with fans to celebrate the season’s first snowfall.

On November 27, V posted a photo on the BTS fan platform, Weverse, showing him standing in front of a coffee shop he had previously modeled for, dressed in a military uniform. The second photo captured the beautiful snow-covered landscape from the day’s first snowfall.

V wrote, "How are you doing? Did you see the snow? Winter is starting now. ARMYs, are you all having fun? Let’s have a busy time next year with BTS, okay? Huh? Huh?"

V, who enlisted in the military on December 11 last year, is currently serving in the military police unit at the Army’s 2nd Corps in Chuncheon, Gangwon Province. He is expected to be discharged on June 10, 2025.

Although V is on a break due to his military service, he continues to impress with his popularity. His digital single FRI(END)S, released before his enlistment, made it to No. 65 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.

In exciting news, V will release a new digital single titled Winter Ahead on November 29 at 2 PM. The song, a jazz-pop duet with singer Park Hyo-shin, was inspired by V’s wish for fans to enjoy a warm and joyful winter. V, who has released winter songs every year, collaborated with his close friend Park Hyo-shin to create the track.
