Kim Taehyung's celebrity fan club grows every year as more rookie K-pop idols name him as their role model, and more established celebrities proudly declare themselves one of his fans.
Aside from revealing their love for V through interviews and talk shows, some have taken it a step further and shown their affection by using and showing off his various merch products.
Let's check out some of the recent examples.

Jay from ENHYPEN saying “Ohhhh…so handsome” when he picked up Taes folder. And then quickly puts it in his bag. Taehyung is IDOL of IDOLS for a reason. They are so cute.

Seems that 🇯🇵 professional wrestler Go Shiozaki is a fan of BTS & BT21. The 1st in a series of IG photos posted on Feb 1 to wish members speedy recovery from COVID was none other than Tata. Taehyung wasn't sick then but who can resist Tata's cuteness?
