BTS’ Taehyung (V) was seen at Gimpo International Airport on July 1, 2025, after a sudden one-day trip abroad. Just a day before, he had quietly left South Korea on June 29. The trip was immediately following the opening night of Jin’s solo concert. He had attended the RUNSEOKJIN_EP.TOUR show with fellow BTS members RM and j-hope, but left the venue early.
This led many fans to suspect he had an urgent schedule. When he returned to Korea, Taehyung wore a simple black fitted t-shirt and black pants, with his headphones on and a noticeable new golden hoop earring on one ear. Fans quickly noticed other details too, from his Celine jewelry to his Urban Sophistication phone case.
With no prior announcement of his trip, fans were left curious about the reason behind it. Korean media later confirmed that he had completed a short promotional schedule in Japan.

Fans on social media wasted no time speculating about what might be coming next. An X user, @tetaethv, wrote,
"WE GETTIN' NEW CONTENT SOON!?"
Many joked about how quickly they had to shift from wishing him a safe flight to welcoming him back. Others pointed out how secretive and swift his movement was. They said it added to the mystery.
"i love how we don't know that he left," a fan commented.
"He left so silently, what's cooking baby," an X user wrote.
"WAIT?! HE'S "BACK"?? BACK FROM WHERE. My boy left and I didn't hear about it..My boy is stealthy," another person added.
"can’t believe we’ve reached a point where the time between HAVE A SAFE FLIGHT TAEHYUNG and WELCOME HOME TAEHYUNG is shorter than his livestreams," a fan mentioned.
Some guessed that this brief international schedule could mean new solo content or a brand project. His subtle airport look and public appearance only added fuel to the ongoing theories.
"Slipping away secretly after attending Jin's RunSeokjin Ep. Tour Day 1 (June 28). Such a sneaky baby there, @thv I hope you finished your projects, whatever they are. Surprise us! We'll be waiting," a fan wrote.
"Sneaky. Mysterious. You are really something else Taehyung and that's so HOT of you. Waiting for you to share it," a netizen remarked.
"He is coming back? Must have left SK on Saturday then. Wow no one really knew he had left somewhere, that's impressive," a fan mentioned.
Taehyung’s return sparks content rumors amid rising post-military visibility
Taehyung’s quick trip follows his highly anticipated return to public life after completing his military service on June 10, 2025. Since then, the singer has made several public appearances. These include j-hope’s tour finale and Jin’s solo concert.
His presence has reignited global fan attention, with search terms like “Kim Taehyung” topping Google Trends rankings.
V has also continued to dominate in fashion and music influence. From the beanie he wore at Jin’s concert selling out within hours, to Cartier watches and headphones flying off shelves after he’s spotted in them, his impact is visible across industries.
Recently, he won the “Trend of June: K-pop Solo” award at the Korea Grand Music Awards and is set to receive a physical trophy for it.
Though nothing has been officially announced, the sudden Japan schedule and quiet return suggest that some content may be on the horizon.
With BTS’ full-group comeback planned for 2026, fans believe V’s solo activities will likely increase in the months ahead.
