BTS’ V’s new TikTok account gets over a million followers with Jungkook and J-Hope first to follow
How fans actually figured it out
The story of how ARMYs tracked down the account is a whole thing on its own.
A day before the account appeared, on March 12, Jungkook had quietly unfollowed almost everyone on his TikTok profile, leaving only J-Hope and BTS’ official TikTok account on his following list. When fans checked back the next day and spotted a brand new addition, they put two and two together almost immediately.
“I’m still thinking how we found out about Taehyung’s TikTok account from Jungkook and Jungkook’s Instagram account from Taehyung,” one fan posted on social media.
Could TikTok challenges be on the way?
The timing of the launch has fans buzzing about what might come next. In a recent interview with GQ, Taehyung and Jungkook had spoken about the idea of doing TikTok challenges together after a fan brought it up. Now that both are on the platform, it feels less like a hypothetical and more like a matter of when.
“Finally! More dance challenges to come! Let’s get it!” one fan wrote, summing up the general mood pretty well.
For now, the account is live and the follower count is climbing. Welcome to TikTok, Taehyung.
