K-media reported about the overwhelming fandom support given by Kim Taehyung's Chinese fan club, 'China Baidu VBar,' for BTS's anthology album 'Proof.'

On the 1st day of 'Proof's release, Vbar announced that they jointly purchased a total of 160,913 copies of BTS's new album, which cost about 4.5 billion KRW or 3.5 million US dollars.

This is the highest joint purchase albums sold on the first day of an album's release. Baidu V Bar purchased an overwhelming number of "Proof" albums, accounting for 40% of total fandom joint purchases in China.

Netizens on a trending post on PannNate with more than 80,000 views discussed the topic and shared their thoughts:

1. Baidu V bar raised 500 M won last year in just one minute to support V's birthday. They are almost banned from mentioning BTS because of the government ban on Hallyu, and BTS can't even go to China for concerts. But their love is true love

2. Even though V's Chinese fans are criticized for liking BTS because of the government ban on Hallyu, they are also working very hard. But V is so good to his fans, and V proves V bar's support several times. So they are happy.

3. For V's birthday, Chinese fans built an elementary school, built a bridge, held a lighting event at Cheonggyecheon, and advertised his birthday for the first time at Burj Khalifa in Dubai. The scale is crazy.

4. It is also amazing that they held the birthday events of Burj Khalifa, Dubai, on V's birthday for two consecutive years. It's a place where Dubai royalty and global companies only advertise.

5. We need to acknowledge Baidu V bar's love, but they seem to do a really good job. They are great at cooperating with companies and local governments, such as Cheonggyecheon events and murals.

6. Even though BTS doesn't have promotions in China, V bar supports V with pure love, and V, who keeps showing us proof of their support, are both so touching.

On another trending post under HOT Category on theQoo, netizens also gave their two cents:

1. As expected. Their fandom is a wall.

2. They can't even promote in China. This is real love.

3. V's core Chinese fans are no joke. This isn't even his solo album but a group album, but they bought so many of it. I'm happy because as an all-fan (T/N: fan of all members), their album sales are going upㅋㅋㅋ

4. I'm really impressed every time; the scale is beyond.

5. Bangtan never promoted in China, no? 

6. Wow, I'm curious as to what would happen if they promote in China ㅋㅋㅋㅋ.
