On July 15, 2025, BTS fans worldwide were met with an eventful day after Taehyung (V) initiated a marathon of livestreams across Instagram and Weverse for nearly the entire day. What began as a technical mishap soon turned into chaos, with V, RM, Jungkook, Jimin, and even j-hope joining in at different points.

After several failed Instagram attempts due to comment issues, the group shifted to Weverse. It started with Jungkook’s stream and eventually involved multiple configurations of the members across different rooms. Taehyung, who went live several times that day, finally ended the day with a short solo Weverse stream from his dark hotel room.

In the dim light, he quietly greeted fans while winding down after the day’s chaos. While reading live comments, he suddenly burst into laughter after seeing one that read in English,

The phrase “jebal” means “please” in Korean. The comment perfectly captured the shared exhaustion between fans and the idol. Taehyung read it out loud with a hand over his mouth, trying to hold back his laughter.

The moment became one of the most viral highlights of the day. His reaction had fans cracking up. An X user, @babepjm, wrote,

"he laughing at us 9-5s but we’re the ones funding his lifestyle."

Fans took to social media, joking that Taehyung was laughing at everyone trying to juggle BTS content with their regular work lives. Some pointed out how relatable the situation was. They stated that they had been desperately trying to study, or focus on work, yet still couldn’t bring themselves to leave the live.

"I'm endeared by how we all army share the same sentiments where we have the option to leave the lives, yet we insist on them ending the lives even if it comes between our chores because we can't/ don't leave our loves like that," a fan wrote.

"THE HAND OVER HIS MOUTH IS FRYING ME," an X user mentioned.
"im unemployed and still begged them to turn it off so i could sleep," a netizen added.
"BRO IF WE AINT DOING THE 9-5 TO GIVE U MONEY YOU'D BE DOING THE SAME THING TOO," another one added.

Others humorously claimed Taehyung was mocking the 9-to-5 lifestyle as they struggled to keep up with back-to-back sessions and still survive the day. Some also mentioned the need for work to save for BTS concert.

BTS’ chaotic day of livestreams and Taehyung’s viral late-night moment explained

The livestream madness began when Taehyung attempted to go live on Instagram. However, he had to cut it off multiple times due to setting issues. Eventually, Jungkook and RM joined, but since no one could read the comments, the stream was short-lived.

Jungkook even rejoined the platform with a new username, @mnijungkook, specifically for the live session. After repeated interruptions, they turned to Weverse. Jungkook started a stream with RM beside him, later joined by Jimin.

Meanwhile, Taehyung hosted his own Weverse live, separately from another room. At one point, Jimin struggled to find Taehyung’s room. This prompted V to leave his space and help him. j-hope also joined briefly from Incheon Airport in South Korea. The whirlwind of overlapping livestreams totaled 11 sessions across both platforms within a day.

It marked one of BTS' most active digital appearances since their full-group Weverse comeback announcement earlier this month. Taehyung ended the night quietly, lying in bed, joking around with fans, and reacting to their comments.
