Dazed on Taehyung:
"Everywhere V goes, he is accompanied by screams. Whether he’s attending a fashion show, performing at a sold-out arena or even making the short trip from his blacked-out SUV to the foyer of a five-star hotel"
Q. How would you define your role in the group, musically and also in terms of personality?
“I think of myself as someone who helps to balance the energy within the group. If the mood gets too high, I will try to bring it down and create a sense of calm, and if things feel a little too quiet, I’ll try to lift the vibe. I feel like I help create the right balance”
🗣️:What makes you feel confident?
🐯: I feel the most confident right after a performance. When I walk back into my hotel room after a show, I’m usually filled with so much energy and confidence because I’m still carrying the excitement from the stage. I come back to my hotel, take a shower and get ready to sleep feeling really content and proud, but because the adrenaline is still there it’s not always easy to fall asleep right away.

👤Hi V. How would you describe this current chapter of your life?
🧸We've been really busy [lately] with our BTS WORLD TOUR ARIRANG in Europe, and I've had the chance to experience so many different cities along the way. Every place feels unfamiliar at first, but I've been finding small moments of happiness that feel comforting and make me feel at home.
👤Your life has been very busy for a long time. What helps you feel grounded?
🧸What helps me stay grounded when everything moves so quickly is learning to appreciate the present moment. I'm trying to focus on the fact that I can have a good day without always having to rush or achieve something. I've realised that, even during a busy life, it's important to slow down and enjoy where I am right now.
“Everywhere V goes, he is accompanied by screams. Whether he’s attending a fashion show, performing at a sold-out arena or even making the short trip from his blacked-out SUV to the foyer of a five-star hotel, the BTS star’s life is soundtracked by an unbroken chorus of ear-splitting shrieks”
