BTS member V (Kim Taehyung) has become such a global sensation that he’s overshadowed the actual letter “V” on Google searches! Fans and non-fans alike are noticing how the K-pop star’s fame dominates even the alphabet.

On January 16th, a BTS fan shared a funny story online. The fan’s younger sister, a teacher at a special education school, noticed something surprising during class.

One of her students was working on a slideshow featuring images of each alphabet letter. But when the student searched for the letter "V", instead of seeing the usual alphabet visuals, the results were flooded with photos of BTS’s V!

The student, who wasn’t even a K-pop fan, was both amused and confused. The teacher shared the funny incident with her sibling, who posted it online.

Fans quickly confirmed the claim—searching “V” on Google Images indeed brings up a flood of photos of Kim Taehyung, leaving traditional “V” images nowhere to be found.

This unique phenomenon shows just how powerful V’s influence is. According to Google Trends, V has been the most-searched BTS member since their debut in 2013, with peak search volumes recorded in 2021, 2022, and 2024.

Even during his break for military service, he maintained his spot as the most-searched Asian star. His impact is especially strong in Asia, where his popularity is unmatched.

V’s dominance isn’t limited to Google. He’s also a top-ranking star on platforms like Instagram and Wikipedia, proving that his global superstar status goes beyond music.

Outshining celebrities from all fields, including sports and Hollywood, V has truly solidified himself as Asia’s most prominent and influential icon.

It’s safe to say, BTS’s V isn’t just a name—it’s a brand, a phenomenon, and now, a replacement for the letter “V” on the internet! Fans are loving the moment, and many agree: "Kim Taehyung doesn’t follow trends; he is the trend!"

Big news has rocked the drama world! Director Lee Byung Hun has officially stepped down from the director’s chair for the upcoming Netflix series Everything Will Come True, starring Kim Woo Bin and Suzy.

Reports from the broadcasting industry on January 27 revealed that Lee Byung Hun left the project last year during filming due to personal reasons.

The production team confirmed the news, stating, “It is true that Director Lee Byung Hun left the project due to personal reasons.” After his exit, PD Ahn Gil Ho, who directed the hit Netflix series The Glory, stepped in to lead the project.

Despite Lee Byung Hun’s departure, Everything Will Come True wrapped up all its filming by the end of October 2024.

Fans are still eagerly awaiting this romantic comedy that tells the story of Genie (played by Kim Woo Bin), who holds the power to control life and death, and Ga Young (played by Suzy), who lacks emotions.

The two characters make three wishes that could change their fate in ways they never imagined—bringing either fortune or punishment.

The buzz around the project has been huge, thanks to its writer Kim Eun Sook, the mastermind behind iconic dramas like Secret Garden, The Heirs, Goblin, Descendants of the Sun, and Mr. Sunshine.

Fans were excited about the combination of Kim Eun Sook’s storytelling and Lee Byung Hun’s directing talent. Everything Will Come True was one of the most anticipated Netflix releases for 2025.

Currently, the drama is in post-production, with a lot of technical work and CGI still to be done. The team behind the show is putting in extra effort to make sure it’s the best release of the year, with specialists from various fields working together to complete it.

Stay tuned for updates, as Everything Will Come True is set to release later this year!
