BTS V’s dance skills were widely recognized in “DNA” (2017), where he single-handedly ‘owned’ the live stages. The K-pop icon’s groovy moves and killer facial expressions drew new fans to the group. “Singularity,” BTS V’s solo single, came next, where his sultry vocals and sensual dance moves made millions swoon.
The rest is history, as the hitmaker soon became known as one of the most charismatic dancers of K-pop.
Pied Piper

Singularity
“Singularity” changed the course of Taehyung’s K-pop career. Known as the ‘goofy’ member, V showed he has more to show than just his sappy side. The song’s official music video unveiled V’s sensual dance moves for the first time. How Taehyung blended his moves with the tune of the song amazed fans through and through.
Later, when BTS went on their tour, V’s solo stage of “Singularity” became one of the show’s most anticipated moments. The videos of fans who attended the concert showed how the audience went wild when Tae took the stage.
DNA
Blonde Taehyung in “DNA” music video ‘hit different.’ V aced the electrifying moves of the song every single time he took the stage.

Dynamite (dance break special)
BTS’s first English single, “Dynamite,” made history as their first Billboard Hot 100 topper. The song’s captivating magic was in its charming choreography.
In MMA 2020, BTS surprised fans with a new version of the choreography as they introduced a Michael Jackson-inspired dance break in the song. Taehyung concluded the dance break with moves to die for. His honed dance skills made him stand apart as he became one of the most talked about members after the performance on X (formerly Twitter).
