V of BTS gets his Dodgers fanboy on with Shohei Ohtani while throwing a strike of his own

by

On a special Monday evening at Dodger Stadium, member V from BTS found himself ecstatically acting as a devoted fan for once. He had the fortunate opportunity to share an affectionate hug with Shohei Ohtani and perform a profound bow on the field towards Yoshinobu Yamamoto.

In a recent event, the beloved K-pop star struck poses for photographs alongside three-time MVP Ohtani, who resumed pitching duties this season while also serving as the Dodgers’ designated hitter. Additional photos were taken on the field with ace Yamamoto, who played a key role in the team’s victory over the Padres in San Diego on Sunday. Notably, he also had a brief conversation with the legendary Clayton Kershaw.

The highly acclaimed South Korean boy group is currently organizing plans since all its members have fulfilled their military duties.

Seems V — real name Kim Taehyung — might be a fan of pitching in general?

It’s great news (if it’s confirmed) that the K-pop star threw the opening pitch at Chavez Ravine before the Dodgers won 7-0 against the Cincinnati Reds, with BTS fans surely being present in the audience to cheer him on.

As a devoted BTS fan, I’m thrilled to share that we finally have some exciting news from the boys! After taking a break for their mandatory 18-month military service in South Korea, we’re delighted to announce that they’ll be gracing us with a brand new album next spring of 2026. That’s right, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, RM, Jimin, Jung Kook, and V are back and ready to make some magic again!

Announcer Todd Leitz declared the band’s long-awaited reunion through the stadium speakers on Monday. “The wait is over now, V! The stage is all yours!” he exclaimed.

This year, BTS’s presence on pop charts was nearly everywhere, making it quite simple to overlook the fact that each member is currently fulfilling their mandatory military service in South Korea.

On the pitcher’s mound, V tossed a powerful pitch towards Yamamoto, acting as the makeshift catcher. This impressive delivery drew admiration from Leitz with an exclamation of “wow, what a pitch,” while the audience in the stands erupted into cheers.

In this video, after being on the field for half an hour, there’s a moment where someone announces that the first pitch of the night, for ‘V’ from BTS, has reached its peak.

As a devoted cinema-goer, I’d rephrase that exciting moment as follows: “Absolutely! He nailed a perfect pitch, no doubt about it. Another voice chimes in, praising him for his dedication – he’s been honing his skills every 13 seconds out here. The crowd is going wild, and we can’t quite figure out why. Over there, he’s casually playing catch, tossing the ball all the way down the left field line. And when you place him on the mound, watch out – this guy turns into a formidable strike thrower!

Following the presentation, V too had the privilege of uttering the five iconic phrases that commence each home match for the Dodgers – “Time for some Dodger baseball.

The South Korean pop sensation BTS’s member Suga, who is presently fulfilling his required military duty, has had his driver’s license taken away after being found driving an ‘electric kickboard’ under the influence of alcohol.

Beginning in July, our entire group of seven will collaborate intimately on fresh music, as declared in a statement issued on the 1st. As this is a collective effort, the album will embody each member’s unique perspectives and creativity. We plan to approach the creation of this album with the same spirit we held when we first started out together.

In June 2022, BTS released their latest album titled “Proof.” Following this, they gave a live performance together in their native country later in the same year. Since then, each member has ventured into solo projects. Notably, Jung Kook’s single “Seven” climbed to the top of the Billboard Hot 100 in 2023, and RM’s album “Right Place, Wrong Person” reached No. 5 on Billboard’s albums chart the previous year.
