BTS’ V’s recent trip to France turned into quite an eventful journey. From the moment he left for Paris, fans couldn’t stop talking about his effortless style. His striped shirt and tie look at the airport went viral, and during his time in France for Celine’s Womenswear 2026 Paris Fashion Week, he proved once again why he’s called one of K-pop’s top fashion icons. The 29-year-old star later shared glimpses of his trip on Instagram, leaving fans in awe of his elegance and charm.
But things got a little messy when he returned to South Korea. As expected, crowds of fans and reporters filled the airport to catch a glimpse of him. Surprisingly, many fans stayed behind the safety lines, which caught V’s attention. In a video captured by Dispatch Korea, he smiled and praised them, saying, “Good job keeping order! Good, good!” His compliment didn’t last long though. Within seconds, some fans rushed forward, breaking the line and causing confusion. V immediately reacted, joking, “Cancel that! Stop! I guess we still have to try harder to maintain order.”
The incident has brought attention back to a topic V has spoken about before — airport safety. During a past livestream, he encouraged fans to revive the “Purple Ribbon Project,” a fan-led initiative that helps control crowds during BTS’s travels to prevent stampedes or dangerous situations. Many believe fans’ initial calm behavior at the airport this time was influenced by his previous request.
Despite the brief chaos, V’s trip to Paris was nothing short of glamorous. On Instagram, where he has over 69 million followers, he shared photos from his time abroad. From his stylish black club outfit and sleek tailored Celine look to his casual running and shopping outfits, every post felt like a page out of a fashion magazine. Whether on the runway sidelines or in the streets of Paris, V proved once again that he’s the ultimate style ambassador for Celine — and one of the most effortlessly charming stars in the world.
