Kim Tae-Hyung (김태형), also known as V (뷔), is a South Korean singer, dancer, songwriter and actor under Big Hit Entertainment. He rose to fame as one of the members of the worldwide sensation BTS.
When he was just fifteen years old, V accompanied his friend to audition at Big Hit Entertainment. He was only there to support his friend, but an executive noticed him and encouraged him to audition. Since V had no plans of auditioning, he had to call his parents to ask for permission. He ended up passing the audition and became an official trainee.
In 2013, V made his official debut with BTS and went on to become one of the most popular and loved artists of his generation.
Besides performing, V also took on acting projects. He debuted as an actor in late 2016 through the historical drama "Hwarang."
On September 8, 2023, V made his official solo debut with the mini album "Layover."
