V, whose real name is Kim Taehyung, sparked concern among fans after reports emerged that he was involved in a minor car accident.
According to multiple unverified fan reports, another vehicle rear-ended the car carrying the BTS singer near his hotel.
The Dynamite hitmaker was reportedly uninjured, exited the vehicle safely, and walked the remaining short distance to the hotel on his own.
Fans woke up to the worrying reports following BTS’ second ARIRANG World Tour concert at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on Sunday, August 2.
After the claims spread rapidly across social media, several fan-recorded videos appear to show the K-pop sensation walking toward his hotel while flanked by his bodyguards.
The clear footages are the evidence that he was unharmed.
While the exact circumstances surrounding the collision remain unclear, the reports quickly fueled concern among fans before relief followed as accounts indicated that the accident was minor and V had not suffered any injuries.
As of early August 4, neither V, BTS, nor Big Hit Music has publicly commented on the reported incident. No injuries have been officially reported, though details remain unverified pending an official statement.
