BTS’s V showcased his unique presence in his first magazine cover pictorial since his military discharge. The video featuring him garnered 15 million views in just 17 hours, drawing a huge response from fans. W Korea announced on the 5th that V would be on the cover of their September issue, releasing the video on their official SNS with the caption, ″Charming, one-eyed eyes, a mole on his lip, a languid voice. His visuals alone overwhelm the scene. Who is this mysterious figure?″
The video is part of a photoshoot filmed in Paris, France, during V’s attendance at the Celine fashion show in July. V wore a piece from the ″Celine 2026 Spring Collection,″ the first creation by Celine’s new head designer, Michael Ryder. The fashion show and pictorial garnered significant attention in the global fashion industry.
The video begins with a close-up of V’s face. His features, captured on camera, exude a surreal beauty. The changing gaze depending on the angle of the gaze, the subtle tension created by the squint, the mole on the lips, and the subtle shifts in facial expressions add narrative to the entire video. V’s long, slender fingers are particularly accentuated by elaborate nail art, and the scratch-style eyebrows leave a powerful impression.
His sharp, masculine lines, rounded nose, full lips, and small, soft jawline create a uniquely genderless mood. On July 3rd, while attending the Celine fashion show, V hinted at his personal care secrets by sharing self-care photos on his personal Instagram Story with the captions, ″Hey, I’m taking care of myself now,″ and ″Just wait and see.″
