What I love about Kim Taehyung
Your question: Hey Smiles, what are you doing?
My answer: read this and then join me
Ingenious. Example 1) Run BTS! ep 4 - At the pool, the members had to transfer coke from one bottle to another. V was the most successful in a very ingenious idea to transfer directly, rather than pouring it in. 2) During this talk show, the members had to tell truths and lies about themselves and J-hope was the secret liar. Before seeing his card, V already knew J-hope was the liar because of his face. He quickly decided he would act suspicious in order to throw other people off. 3) BTS Bon Voyage, he figured out everyone was pranking him and played them back. V thinks outside-the-box to problem solve, he is knows his bros so well and thinks on-the-spot, he is super observant about everyone and can figure things out easily. He has once said in some interview that he actually can be very serious sometimes and thinks a lot. Seriously, don’t sleep on his ingeniousness, don’t underestimate this. He’s not an alien just because he can think differently from others.
Family-oriented. Before BTS, as a trainee, as an idol, his family is on his mind every day. He is super filial and always thinks of how to give back to his family, how to show love, and almost contacts them every day! We always get to see him play with his cousins and little siblings, third wheel his parent’s date, and still plans to have a big family. It’s super cute and I can’t wait to see the family man he’ll become. Can you imagine if he ends up on Return of Superman?!!!!!
Super considerate. Remember when he and Suga was sick around Christmas/New Years and they had to skip out a couple of events? Do you remember what he did because ARMY was worried?! Twitter post:“Don’t worry, oppa is superman”!!!! Seriously, my heart absolutely melted for him at that moment. He once posted on fancafe how he reads all of ARMY’s fan mail to him, learning about their struggles and troubles. He felt bad that he can’t do anything for them, but he tried to cheer them up! How cute is he?!
Multi-talented. Singer, dancer, actor. He’s not officially particularly well-known in any of these three aspects, the other members of BTS take the title, but he’s definitely not underappreciated/underrated in any of these three. His deep voice is super important to all the BTS songs because his voice is actually stands out the most out of all the vocals, he’s not a part of the dance line but all of ARMY basically consider him honorary, Jin is the most experienced actor and amazing at it, but there’s no way around it that V is currently the one with a drama role. He has a wonderful sense of variety and I consider him most entertaining. He also deals with lyrics and melody composition, just like Jungkook as well [link about both their works in Run below in Jungkook’s bullet point)
Sociable. Did you know that he is considered as one of the idols with the most connections, known as the most sociable? I just learned about it here and it was fabulous! It truly is a gift to be so sociable, to make such quick and genuine connection and be able to maintain it. Some consider it hasty to make friends that quick, but when you’re someone like Taehyung, those friends stay as friends, not friends-from-some-period-of-your-life. It’s a gift and it’s admirable for someone who doesn’t make friends as quickly/as easily.
“Weird” moments. okay. the thing is, he wasn’t afraid to be himself in private or public. When the rest of the members first met him, they didn’t think he was normal and thought it was an act. Hell no, that’s the way he is and my favorite part of him is when I see him relaxed and himself, you really have no idea how much I love him as himself. It pains me when I see him even a little reserved because that’s not how he originally was. I’m always worried for him because within the entertainment industry, it’s way too easy to be criticized. I feel like confidence in him to be himself has been slowly stripping away, I really wish there was some way we could bring it back to him. I love this part of him because it helps me feel like it’s okay to be myself, and it would bring me confidence to be different as I am.
The little things: boxy smile (my favorite smile [suga’s sweet smile is very damn close though]), big hands (i want to compare mine to his…or just hold them :)), deeeeeep voice but looks like a 12 year old, cypher lover, blank tae moments, biking expert

He plays piano: I know, stereotypically, all Asians play an instrument. Suga does (1, 2, 3), Jimin does, and apparently Seokjin is learning. BUT I will never let go of any chance I get to see them play real instruments! (btw, I’m Asian myself and I don’t know how to play an instrument, so yes, I know there are both sides of the coin)
Optimism: Not only was he optimistic here, he was relaxed and happy whereas most people would freak out and be scared of being lost in a place they don’t know.
The little things: dog lover, child, and this

Good-natured. This guy helps ARMY who’ve slipped and fallen. This guy always reminds ARMY after all the different events they’ve attended to go home safe and to stay warm/not get sick.
Pure. This guy really goes by instinct. Goes on a whim. Goes on the fly. Three examples of this come to mind: impulsively sneaking out with Jimin to go to eat and play games in an arcade, him singing Big Bang’s “Loser” after BTS win at M!Countdown, and him sharing nude photography on fancafe because he likes the artistic style of that one photographer (not his own nudity, people). I’m not getting into the controversies about the last two. But these moments show that he really doesn’t consider these things. In many ways, it’s a very child-like innocence. Intentions aren’t on his mind whether they’re pure or evil, he just thinks this is what I want to do/ this is what I will do. There’s no should, no would, there’s just is. Without intentions in mind, without fear of consequences, that shows me that he has pure mentality.
Humble about his looks. He doesn’t think he’s the best looking/visual in Bangtan. He doesn’t care to be it either (first paragrah). He gives us his best derp-faces because he feels like it and it makes us laugh. Whereas the other visual in Bangtan, Kim Seokjin, who shows overflowing confidence that gives us all motivation to feel good about how we look, this guy is on the other side of the spectrum (neither sides are better than the other), and stays humble and simply thanks for the compliment. You know the the difference between humble and modesty vs fake? A fake person pushes for more compliments (e.g.: “Oh no. I’m horribly ugly! Now tell me more about how you think I’m wrong to think that I’m ugly”). The humble or modest person accepts and moves on without letting the compliment to further continue and makes his head grow big.
“Unique” language. This guy isn’t the best speaker on his own. He often needs “translations” from yoongi and namjoon. If he doesn’t have a prompt, like when he’s an MC, it’s really hard for him to really relay all that he wants to say in the best way possible. When people speak about him negatively, he’s speechless because he doesn’t know what he can say to defend himself. In many ways, I think this goes back the the pure point. There’s really not much for him to think through to filter because honestly, it doesn’t feel like it should be so complicated.
His taste in women. He’s stated before he wants a woman who can handle his money properly and even scold him when he’s not using it properly. He wants a big family (Ideal type and 2nd bucket list), he wants a woman who can cook. He wishes his first love to be the one he marries (last sentence). He basically wants a woman ready to be a mother, ready to be someone to look over his household in the future. Once again, as pure as he is, his intentions are not to put woman “in their place” by finding a woman who can do the traditional motherly things. But he values a woman who can be a good mother and a good wife. Is that so wrong to find value in these traits? I don’t think so. In fact, I think as traditional as those traits are, I think he’s very forward thinking in having a family because he’s such a family-oriented person. And in having a good family, find a good wife who can be a good mother. I’m glad he thinks like this because many people are very present-based and goes “I just want this girl to have these superficial traits, and it would be cool if she’s kind, caring, funny, and smart”. Please, those are the basics of every person’s list. The more specific you are, the more you know what you want. And he knows he wants a family.
