From an idol to a supermodel: 10+ photoshoots pf BTS' V that prove he was born for the runway

Kim Tae-hyung, better known as BTS' V, is a musician by profession but a model by hobby. The singer is known not only for his distinct deep voice but also his impeccable fashion sense and gorgeous visuals.

The Korean media gave BTS' V the nickname CGV, which stands for Computer Graphic V, because of his flawless and near-perfect visuals. He is considered one of the best-looking men in the world and has been crowned BESTTOPER’s Most Handsome Man in the World multiple times.

BTS' V also attended Celine’s Spring menswear show at Paris Fashion Week 2022 dressed in a shiny black top. He paired it with a bedazzling neckpiece and a red leather jacket, effortlessly making such bold statement pieces work together. His piercing gaze and sharp features make him the perfect muse for any pictorial.

Painter Lee Dong-yeon was so taken by his visuals that the artist painted him for an art exhibition in Ulsan and titled it Korea Fantasy. Photographers who have also worked with the artist cannot stop singing his praises.

According to Segye Ilbo, photographer Sam Dameshek has called BTS’ V model material. Fans believe that he can make any look work as most outfits seem to look better on him than the models on the runway. His most-recent individual Vogue Korea cover shoot proves the point.
