BTS member V is once again drawing attention for his influence on consumer interest after a wine he was reportedly seen drinking during his visit to Chile sold out at several online retailers.
On October 20, V shared photos from his time in Chile through his personal social media account, giving fans a glimpse of his visit to a local winery.
The photos showed the BTS star walking through a vineyard, exploring the winery, and enjoying wine while spending time with fellow members.
Alongside the photos, V playfully wrote, "It's not dirt. I understand why you might think that. It's supposed to look like this. I'm telling you, it's not."
However, it was the wine featured during his visit that reportedly attracted considerable attention from fans.
According to a report published on October 26, the wine believed to have been enjoyed by V sold out at several online retailers approximately two hours after his social media post was shared.
The reported sellouts included three official retailers in South Korea, Japanese wine shopping platform WineZip, and Greek online wine retailer Botilia.gr.
Some South Korean sellers reportedly began accepting advance reservations after informing customers that restocking could take approximately two months.
The sudden increase in attention has been linked to V's winery photos, although exact sales figures and the number of bottles sold were not disclosed.
The reported demand has once again highlighted how V's social media appearances can bring international attention to products and brands.
Interestingly, the wine was not the only item associated with the BTS member that recently attracted attention.
A T-shirt V wore during a soundcheck before a performance in Peru also reportedly sold out.
Following the attention, Venezuelan clothing brand Caracas Merch expressed its appreciation through its official social media channel.
The brand explained that seeing V wear one of its products meant more than simply gaining attention for a T-shirt, adding that it was proud to introduce a Venezuelan brand to a wider international audience.

From the reported wine sellouts in Chile to growing interest in his clothing choices, V continues to demonstrate his ability to draw attention to products from different countries.
While the exact impact on sales remains unclear, the reported sellouts shortly after his winery visit have become another example of the strong interest surrounding the BTS star's everyday activities.
