BTS's V Sparks Excitement with Basketball Skills, Dubbed 'College Sports Hunk'

BTS member V is continuing his busy schedule post-military discharge, and has once again captivated fans with his charm, this time on the basketball court.

On the 18th, V appeared on a live broadcast via Weverse, showcasing his 1-on-1 basketball skills. Dressed in comfortable sportswear, he displayed a 'college sports oppa' visual that seemed almost too good to be true, drawing the attention of fans.

Despite the short broadcast, V demonstrated a variety of basketball techniques, from checking his shooting form to attempting mid-range, jump, and three-point shots, impressing with his high-level skills. He started by casually warming up with a three-pointer, then moved on to display admirable speed, ball handling, and shooting.

As the game heated up, V shed his jacket, revealing a sleeveless shirt. His tall stature, long legs, and toned arm muscles were on full display, exuding a healthy, athlete-like appeal. The sight of him confidently sinking a layup with a flick of his wrist, wearing a cap backward over his sleeveless shirt, sparked reactions among fans calling him 'My No.1 type, the college sports oppa.'

It's well-known that V possesses outstanding athletic abilities not just in basketball, but also in various other sports such as scuba diving, shooting, equestrianism, golf, tennis, and more. He was even once cited by SBS Morning Wide as a 'Star to Send to the Olympics,' and his rapid learning curve is evident in golf, where he achieved a driving distance of 182 meters in just three weeks.

V's presence was also notable at the baseball field. On August 26th, he threw the ceremonial first pitch at the LA Dodgers vs. Cincinnati Reds game at Dodger Stadium. The broadcast commentators emphasized his 'global sensation' status and 'undeniable mega-star' power, even praising his pitch as a 'fantastic breaking ball' that would make them want to sign him immediately.

Even after his discharge, V is navigating a whirlwind schedule including baseball ceremonial pitches, commercial filming, and attending fashion weeks and pop-up events. Despite this, he consistently communicates with fans through spontaneous Weverse live broadcasts. Expectations are high for how his versatile sportsman energy and fan love, once again showcased on the basketball court, will unfold on future stages.

Fans reacted enthusiastically to his healthy appearance and versatility, commenting, 'I hope V releases a solo album,' 'He's truly multi-talented,' and 'Did he just go to the military to play sports?'
