Taehyung was announced as outdoor brand Snow Peak's ambassador in August 2025

On August 21, 2025, Snow Peak Apparel officially announced BTS’ Taehyung as the new global brand ambassador for its Fall/Winter 2025 collection. The reveal came through a teaser video titled “He is coming!” which featured the singer in nature-inspired settings such as forests and grassy fields, aligning with the brand’s outdoor lifestyle aesthetic.

Alongside the teaser, three official photos of V dressed in a black puffer jacket were shared on Snow Peak’s social media platforms. The campaign sparked an overwhelming response, as expected by the fans. Snow Peak Apparel’s website temporarily crashed due to a surge in global traffic, as fans flocked online to view the newly unveiled content.

Revealing about the appointment, a brand spokesperson explained that V was chosen because of his "understated charisma, profound gaze, and quiet yet powerful presence.”
