V stands for Victory
From the Merriam Webster dictionary: 2) achievement of, mastery or success in a struggle or endeavor against odds or difficulties.
Taehyung had 3 options when it came time to choose his stage name, and he chose V. He was named Taehyung by his Grandfather, meaning "all wishes come true, everything will be alright even if facing a difficult situation".
How could his Grandfather know that the name given to Tae at birth would also describe his chosen stage, when the time to choose came? Was it fate that V accompanied his friend to the auditions that day? He was the only one selected among everyone that auditioned. He started his career being victorious in a contest he didn't intend to compete.
Tae's path was never easy though. Not during trainee days and not after. As you may know, BTS was originally debuted as a group that focuses only on hip-hop, forcing the members into a mould, to present themselves a certain way. Tae's quirky personality though, may have often seemed out of place where hip-hop is concerned. Especially at BTS' early TV show appearances. From being mocked by hosts and "fans" alike, to becoming the most ridiculed member for his appearance in American Hustle Life, V has had to face it all.
Don't get us wrong, people with similar personalities, as Tae's, are some of the most adored celebrities, in South Korea. But, the "strictly hip-hop" image, BTS, were trying to present in the beginning of their careers, was what made Tae look so out of place. It wasn't until BTS started meddling with other genres and sounds, that people started understanding Tae better. He is a soul with a kaleidoscope of beautiful spectrums.
Although he is capturing everyone's hearts nowadays, this is a knife with two edges all on its own. He is no stranger to prejudice and mockery, to people's obsessive behaviour and ignorance. He has been on both sides of the spectrum. From being disliked because he was misunderstood to being liked too much.
Yet, Tae has never been anything other than himself. From his debut days, until now, V has grown, from a playful quirky boy, into a mature man, with the tender soul of a child. His talents and passions have shone through the shade of prejudice. V, has conquered all challenges. From developing his vocal skills, to learning how to play various instruments. Tae composes his own music and then produces the videos. We witness his ever evolving dancing skills. He fulfilled a life goal, by staring in the historical drama, HWARANG.
Most recently, V has been nurturing his passion for photography and painting.
Within every artistic medium, he shows us his true self. A person that's VICTORIUS!!!
"If you are concerned about something, tell [someone] anytime and let [your troubles] out~ If you keep it to yourself, it will become an illness."

Having a husband who is constantly expressing his love and how attracted he is to me is so wonderful 😭 having struggled with weight and just not feeling my prettiest the last few years because of it has been rough. But never once have I had to question my husband's feels about me ❤️ I wish I could see me the way he see me because I would never have a single insecurity again
✨The window lighting just hit different✨
I'm lost again
Even when it's bad when you are here, it's worst when you are not.
I don't know what to do.
Talk about my feelings, ask you for space, try to ignore you and forgive and heal myself. Or make as this doesn't matter, like I'm crazy for no reason and get with it for the rest of the year.
I only have this year left with you and I feel if I choose myself, I'll regret no choosing you. Maybe for the fact I know you won't fight for me nor try to stop me of leaving, just like the way you are, the way you feel safe. You said that you don't know what I'm talking about when I try to talk this situation with you, that it's just my anxiety again, that it's all in my head, but we are losing each other...
We both know this has to happen but deep down ww don't want it to end, we prefer to be uncomfortable with each other than to be alone, we are the same. But hating, blaming, hurting myself, makes a lot of people I love worry and you are not what I remember, like if last year was a lie. And I think when I grow up I will try to remember those sweet touches, kisses, hugs and wispers as what we were and not what we have become. I don't want you to blame me for leaving, I want you to stop me and change, but that just a foolish girl dream, it's not like those romantic dramas where they do what they can to be together, reality it's complicated, relationship are complicated, we are so complicated. And I want to make whats better for us withot hurting each other. I just don't know whats that answer yet
NEDEN KENDİMİZE İYİ DAVRANMALIYIZ?
Öncelikle bu hayata neden geldiğinizi sorgulayın;üzülmek için mi?Boş boş oturmak için mi?HAYIR!Zihniniz çok güçlü,isterseniz ALIRSINIZ.Bu bu kadar basit. Birşeyleri imkansız yapmaktan artık vazgeçin. Bir sınavda birinci olmak veya herkesi kendine çekmek imkansız mı?HAYIR!Bunları başaran kişiler de aynı senin gibi insandı. Aynı beyin,aynı vücut anatomisi aynı dersler... Farklı olan zihinlerdir! Zihnini her daim güçlü tut,vazgeçeceksen en baştan kaybedeceksin demektir. Bu dünyaya isteklerini yerine getirip yaşamaya gelmediysen yaşamanın ne anlamı var? Bir ölüden farksız olursun! Madem hayatını özgürce yaşamıyorsun o zaman ne için geldin sen bu dünyaya? Mutluluğu haketmediğini mi düşünüyorsun?HAKEDİYORSUN. Sen her şeyin en iyisini hakediyorsun. En yakınına kötü davranıp umursamıyormuş gibi düşün,sen en yakınına böyle davranmak istemezsin di mi? O zaman kendine de öyle davranma! Er geç herkes ama herkes gidecek. Bir tek sen kalacaksın kendin için,tüm ÖMRÜN boyunca senin yoldaşın olacak kendine iyi davranmamak da neyin nesi? En başında anlayışlı olun. Kötü bir ilişki mi geçirdin? Birden ağzından küfür mü kaçtı? Tembellik mi yaptın? Anlayışla karşıla! Basit bir insan olduğunu unutma,kendini üzmek seni hiç bir yere götürmez. Her daim sabrını ve motivasyonunu yüksek tut. Hatalarını anlayışla karşıla. En çok da 'DÜŞMANLARINDAN' cesaret ve motivasyon al. En çok da başarılı olanları kendine rakip seç. 'ARKADAŞ'ların seni pohpohlamaktan başka bir yararı dokunmaz,anca yerinde sayarsın! Asıl rakipler seni bu hayata bağlar ve hırslandırır. Fakat asla ama asla kendini onlara ezdirme. Kendini yetersiz hissederek somurtmanın sana nasıl bir faydası olabilir?? Kendine inanırsan yapabileceğini düşünürsen deneme cesaretinde bulunursun. Kendine inanmazsan otomatik olarak 'ben zaten yapamam der' denemezsin bile! Başkalarının kalıplarına uymak zorunda değilsin,en önemlisi senin kendi düşüncelerin. Sahte davranarak bir yere varamazsın,gerçek cevher senin içinde ve başkalarının yetenekleriyle hiç bir yere gidemeyeceğini sen de biliyorsun! Sen bu dünyaya BAŞARMAK için geldin. İsteklerini gerçekleştirmek için daima büyük bir motivasyonun olsun,çünkü sen buna değersin. Anlayış ve adalete daima önem ver! Çünkü tam tersi davranmak kötü enerjiye sebep olacaktır,başkalarına karşı anlayışsız ve kötü davranırken kendine iyi olmayı mı umuyorsun? HAYIR çünkü sen de bir insansın ve mutlaka sen de bir gün o hatalardan birini YAPARSIN. Tembel olan insanlara iğreltiyle bakarsın,bir bakmışsın sen de onlardan biri olmuşsun. Bu hayatta hatalar da yapabilirsin,bu hatalar olmadan hayat çok bomboş olmaz mıydı? Kendi hayatınız kendi kararlarınıza ev sahipliği yapmalıdır. Herkesin kendi hayatı var,BİR ZAHMET onlar da kendi hayatlarına odaklansın. Bu dünya bir aptalın sözünü umursamak için fazla büyük,UNUTMA iyi şeyleri hakediyorsun♡︎♡︎
