V, also known as Taehyung, personally unveiled several delightful moments. On his Instagram, he posted charming photos, including one of himself savoring a towering ice cream cone alone, and another enjoying the sweet treat with fellow BTS members Jin and J-Hope.

V’s behind-the-scenes video from the Tampa concert, uploaded to TikTok, received an explosive response. The expertly edited clip featured a captivating transition: V swung his leg while in casual attire with the camera positioned on the floor, instantly transforming into his dazzling stage outfit in the subsequent frame. User @1995123othv highlighted its viral success, remarking, “Isn’t this Taehyung’s fastest TikTok to reach 1 million likes and 2.2 million views?” @koonimies lauded the video’s craftsmanship, stating, “That transition edit was truly well done.” Meanwhile, @layoverr_mm praised, “Taehyung’s energy is on another level,” and @thvdotjpg further fueled anticipation among fans by hinting at more forthcoming content, saying, “Taehyung hasn’t posted all his Florida content yet.”
Beyond the concert venue, BTS members were also spotted by local ARMYs in Florida. @taeguide cited a Tampa ARMY’s eyewitness account, reporting that “Taehyung was seen driving an orange Lamborghini with J-Hope (and possibly RM), making funny faces.” This candid photo, captured and shared by an ARMY, brought immense joy and laughter to the fandom.
Adding to the array of fan-pleasing content, a backstage video surfaced, showing V and Jungkook practicing their unique signature handshake with infectious laughter. In the atmospheric, foggy backstage setting, the duo could be seen cheerfully synchronizing their moves. @BTSVChartData shared this delightful clip with the caption “Taehyung and Jungkook’s backstage handshake!”, which quickly garnered hundreds of thousands of views.
BTS is now scheduled to travel to their next concert destination, El Paso, Texas, where they will perform on May 2nd and 3rd.
