Since enlisting in December, photos and videos have shown V’s bulk up.
On April 12, V surprised fans with an update. Along with sharing what he’d been doing recently, including training, exercising, and even celebrating Na PD’s birthday, the idol revealed that he was now 75kg.
Along with the message, V shared photos on Instagram showing the bulk up. While V undoubtedly looked handsome with the short haircut, netizens couldn’t not notice his wide frame and muscles in each of the photos.
If that wasn’t enough, V then went to Weverse. While netizens were worried about the injuries on V’s back, the idol shared a caption saying, “Wound of glory,” showcasing his pride in the hard work he’s put in and what seems like the effects of a treatment.
V made a promise that he was going to gain weight and bulk up before he enlisted, and ARMYs are emotional about the idol constantly showing his progress.
