BTS’s V is once again showing his unstoppable social media power — even without a personal TikTok account.

A throwback video of V dressed as a Squid Game Pink Soldier during BTS’s 2021 LA concert is going viral all over again. On TikTok, the video has now hit 100 million views, with over 14.6 million likes and 162,000 comments, proving just how much fans still love this moment.

At the time, V surprised everyone by stepping on stage in the now-iconic pink jumpsuit and black mask from Squid Game. The crowd went wild when he revealed his face — and even global media couldn’t stop talking about it.

Netflix commented, “We’re obsessed with BTS X Squid Game, but V should never wear a mask,” while People magazine famously said, “Is it even legal to be this handsome?” — a quote that’s now being used by fans again as the clip spreads like wildfire.

The video started trending once more just before the release of BTS’s live album Permission to Dance on Stage - Live, which dropped on July 18. As the memories of that epic performance resurfaced, fans rushed to TikTok and Instagram Reels to relive the moment.

And this isn’t the first time V’s face has taken over TikTok. Some of his other viral moments include:

  • His ‘Hype Boy’ dance challenge racking up 120 million views
  • The ‘Devil Challenge’, ‘Smoke Challenge’, and collabs with top dancer Lee Jung
  • His recent take on the ‘Aura Farming Kid’ meme — which even got reposted by Indonesia’s Ministry of Tourism to help promote their culture

Even years ago, before TikTok blew up, V already went viral on Dubsmash — where fans proudly declared, “No one can beat V.”

Now, fans are all saying the same thing: V needs a personal TikTok account!” They’re hoping he’ll one day join the platform himself to drop even more legendary content.

Whether he’s dancing, dressing up, or just being himself, V continues to show that his charm is truly unbeatable — and fans can’t get enough.
