With his music, encouragement, and loving personality, V has improved the lives of ARMYs around the world. His unofficial endorsements have also made dreams come true for aspiring artists and businesses. A YouTube creator named Matthew Chun went from having under 300 subscribers to over 50,000 after V shared a link to his video 17 and Lost Memories on the Weverse app.

V called Chun “goat,” an acronym for “greatest of all time.” Talk about high praise!

ARMYs flocked to Chun’s dreamy, autobiographical video by the thousands, shooting its views from less than 200 to over 1.3 million! While he has unlisted the video, it is still available for viewing to those with the link, and it currently has over 1.5 million views.

In his “About” section, Chun describes himself as a high school student who enjoys making videos about his life.

Hi! Welcome. I’m a student filmmaker based out of New York City, originally from Seoul, South Korea. I make random videos about my life every now and then although nowadays I mainly work on short films. Feel free to give any comments about my work! Enjoy!

— Matthew Chun

How did he react to going viral? In a pinned comment, he thanked fans for this “very overwhelming” experience.

This isn’t the first time V has shone the spotlight on independent creators. He brought big business to a struggling brand by wearing their hand-braided bracelets, and he completely sold out an artists’ stock by wearing their pin to the airport!
