Netizens are reacting to V's striking transformation at Chuncheon Songam Sports Town

Amid the electrifying atmosphere of the Gangwon FC vs. FC Seoul match in the 2024 K League 1 Round 4, BTS member V made a surprising appearance at the Chuncheon Songam Sports Town on March 31. The internet was set ablaze as fans caught sight of V, revealing a remarkable change in his physique since his military service began.

Images captured at the stadium showcased V looking robust and vigorous, his upper body noticeably more muscular than before. Netizens couldn't contain their astonishment at V's transformation, with comments pouring in expressing admiration for his newfound rugged charm. 

Currently serving in the Army's 2nd Corps in Chuncheon, Gangwon-do, as part of the Military Police Special Task Force, V's discharge date is set for June 10, 2025. Netizens speculate that his disciplined routine in the army has clearly paid off, leaving a lasting impression on netizens who are now more enamored with him than ever before.

Netizen comments include:

"SO HOT"

"I usually go for the slender figures but V looks fine even after a bulk-up....?"
"Still looks cute even after the bulk-up haha"

"Why does his face look younger after going to the army though"

"He looks so thick now omg he used to be so slender"

"I've come to like V even more now"

"The SDT mark is what's so crazy about all this too though"

"Didn't he say he gained weight by about 10 or 20 kg, though? Was all that just muscle weight?"

"I heard it's hard to be an SDT without strengthening one's body like that so this is good"

"I'm sorry, but can't he star in a lead for a drama with an army theme or something..? He looks so good"

"When you go to the army you're forced to have a regular lifestyle with a set routine so he's eating three meals a day and exercising...so this is actually his normal body now"
