South Korean boy band BTS has a soft spot for sports. The septet often takes fans, popularly known as the BTS Army, on a musical ride with their top-tier songs but not many are aware of the team’s love for sports.
Whether it was Suga – or Agust D as fans know him – taking on his role as a global ambassador for the NBA, or the members popping up courtside just to soak in the fun of a match, ARMY has often seen them mixing music with athletics. But this time, things have taken a whole new turn. The Los Angeles Dodgers just announced that Kim Taehyung, better known as V, will be the guest of honour at their game against the Cincinnati Reds.
When and where to watch BTS V’s first ceremonial pitch in India?
Still wondering how you can binge V’s ceremonial pitch in India, we have just the information you need. The LA Dodgers vs Cincinnati Reds can be seen on your screens on August 26, sharp at 7.40 am. The Los Angeles-based team earlier shared the announcement via X on Sunday, August 17. “ARMY, you ready? V will be at Dodger Stadium on 8/25 to throw out the ceremonial first pitch!” they captioned the post.
More about BTS V
This won’t even be his first public appearance since enlisting; he’s already made headlines at Paris Fashion Week as Celine’s ambassador and stirred buzz with high-profile deals, including a controversial campaign with Coca-Cola and a new partnership as the face of Compose Coffee.
Netizens can only imagine V wearing the game jersey. And given his newfound chiseled boy post his military discharge in June this year, fans cannot wait to see him flaunting his best frame.
While we’ve had idols throwing pitches at baseball games before, Taehyung doing his first overseas is what makes it a memorable moment.
