“All men do is lie”: Fans playfully point out BTS’ V’s Suchwita comment after his shirtless appearance in the new Harper’s Bazaar Korea campaign

In episode 18 of Suga's variety show, Suchwita, BTS' V, was the featured guest, making a revelation during this episode that has recently resurfaced, catching the attention of netizens. A few days ago, Taehyung's latest campaign with Harper's Bazaar Korea was unveiled, featuring three photos.

To the surprise of ARMYs, all three pictures showcased the Layover artist shirtless in some way, bringing to mind a specific dialogue he had delivered during the Suchwita episode.

In that dialogue, V stated that BTS' Chapter 2 had nothing to do with taking off their shirts or being shirtless. The contrast between his words and the recent shirtless photos sparked playful reactions from fans on various social media platforms.

"EXPLAIN THIS SIR," Fans hilariously tease Taehyung about his contrasting admission to BTS' Chapter 2 having nothing to do with them being shirtless

Since the revelation of their hiatus in 2022, BTS members have embraced individual appearances in various magazines, donning diverse styles and themes. What caught the fans' attention, however, was the noticeable shift in their presentations, featuring more skin than in the previous decade.

Jin, the oldest member, initiated this trend by sharing a picture of himself shirtless from the back, revealing his "7" tattoo. Fans were taken aback by this bold move, witnessing a side of Jin they had never seen before. Following this, other members followed suit, progressively sharing shirtless images one after another and appearing in magazines with less clothing.

Surprisingly, the youngest member, Jungkook, took it a step further by officially collaborating with the renowned intimate wear brand, Calvin Klein. This partnership added an extra layer of heat to the already-sizzling trend.

Taehyung, too, gradually incorporated more skin exposure into his photoshoots. The most recent stint, Harper Bazaar's Korea, shoot featured him completely shirtless, prompting fans to notice that V exhibited more skin, including more shirtless photos, than any other member.

Fans had humorously labeled this phase as the "shirtless era," forming what they playfully termed BTS Chapter 2. Interestingly, this contradicted V's statement from four months ago during the Suchwita episode, when he asserted,

"Chapter 2 has nothing to do with taking our shirts off."

Fans playfully teased him for this, pointing out the irony as V seemed to prove himself wrong with the recent photoshoot. They started posting his recent campaign photos, playfully asking him for an explanation while relating the instance to his Suchwita revelation:

Despite the playful banter, fans are thoroughly enjoying this new chapter of BTS. They appreciate that the members are still releasing content shots before their enlistment, providing the fandom with something to cherish during their temporary absence. Notably, Suga and Jimin also surprised fans by releasing new content in the past couple of days, adding to the fandom's excitement further.
