BTS’ Kim Taehyung, better known as V, has been named the world’s most influential musician by Instagram analytics platform Top Nine.
Despite being in the middle of his military service, V secured the top rank as the leading Korean influencer in the Music category. He also ranked number one across all categories in the United States.
The rankings are based on audience reach, engagement, and overall influence. V earned several top honors, including Most Influential Musician Globally, Most Influential Korean in the World, and Most Influential Asian Male. His global popularity remains unmatched, even while away from the public eye.
V is expected to complete his military service in a month. Until then, fans continue to celebrate both his achievements and his dedication.
A fellow soldier recently shared a heartfelt message online, praising V’s hard work, discipline, and support during service. The soldier revealed that V excelled in physical training and received a special award, all while dealing with injuries.
In addition to V, several other South Korean stars like Jin, J-Hope, Jimin, RM, Lisa, Jennie, Jisoo, and Cha Eun-woo made it to the top ranks. Taylor Swift was the only American artist to join the list dominated by K-pop icons.
Fans, especially BTS ARMY, are now counting down to V’s discharge in July, hoping to see him back on stage soon — possibly with the full BTS lineup.
