BTS’ V had fans talking after he suddenly deleted an Instagram Story connected to wild dating rumors. On December 19, 2025, the BTS member shared two cute photobooth pictures with actor Park Bo Gum, tagging him directly on the post. The photos were taken at the Celine 2025 End of Year Party in Seoul, an event attended by major stars like Suzy and TWS. Everything seemed normal until the Story quietly disappeared not long after it went up.
The timing raised eyebrows because just days earlier, on December 17, a video of V and Park Bo Gum hugging at the same event went viral online. Fans jokingly compared the clip to a Dispatch couple reveal, making fun of the “bromance” and sparking dating rumors. However, some other fans later wondered if the shipping comments pushed the BTS member to delete the post.
Nothing has been confirmed, and the real reason behind the deletion will probably never be revealed. However, fans have said that V usually pays attention to online reactions. Back in September, he removed Instagram photos after fans commented on his visuals on Weverse. Despite the shipping comments, V and Park Bo Gum have been close friends for over a decade, often showing genuine support for each other publicly.
