BTS’s V has claimed the top spot in a community poll, proving once again that he truly is the “Entry Fairy.” He has been recognized as the “male idol who instantly makes fans stan him,” further strengthening his reputation.
From September 8 to 14, V topped the poll conducted by the K-pop idol community Choeaedol in the category of “male idol who attracts new fans.” Despite his stylish and cool appearance, V quickly won hearts with his playful and lively personality. On stage, his charisma transforms completely, earning him the nickname “Ipdeok Fairy”—the idol who makes fans fall in love at first sight.
Even before his debut, V was kept separate from the other members and was introduced as BTS’s “secret weapon.” BigHit explained, “BTS was complete, but we needed a special momentum. V’s extraordinary looks and personality promised a huge impact, so we thought revealing him last would be most effective.” His fan-pulling power was evident from the very beginning.
During the Boy In Luv promotions in 2014, when BTS started gaining public attention, V stood out as a natural fan magnet. His bright orange hair created such a buzz that Ryeowook on Kiss the Radio commented, “Whenever you search for BTS, the orange hair appears first.”
V’s reputation as the “Entry Fairy” grew even stronger internationally. At the 2017 Billboard Music Awards, he was noticed as “the man on the far left,” and during BTS’s appearance on America’s Got Talent in 2018, his brief “1-second smile” captured the hearts of audiences worldwide.
