BTS' V shares glimpses of post-military life: Food tour to workout sesh, everything he did on secret Japan trip
V returns to South Korea from a quick Japan trip
Kim Taehyung, his real name, was photographed on July 1 in a laidback look by fans and paparazzi stationed at the airport. On the following day, an update from his Instagram account confirmed speculations that he flew to Japan for a swift vacation, where he was able to relax. In about 18 photos, the singer gave a rundown of his quick stay in the neighboring country. It looks like he was able to check out a lot of delicious food and loosen up.
Not being able to give up on maintaining his physique, V ended up at another workout session, something he was not doing a lot of before enlisting in the military. However, since returning from his soldier life, he has ensured he can maintain broad shoulders and toned muscles. The singer was also able to fit in a swimming round in his short but seemingly packed visit.
Meanwhile, BTS announced that the group will release a new album in Spring 2026, estimated to be around March to May. The group will begin working on it, starting with a mobile song camp in the USA soon. The septet also hinted at plans to go on a world tour following the release, set to become the first tour in almost 7 years. Meanwhile, member Jin is currently on his solo world tour, which started with two Goyang concerts and will move to Japan and then Germany, going west later on. It will end in August 2026, which the other members are rumored to follow along with.

Shaheer Shaikh Reviews Director Mukesh Kumar Singh's Kannappa, Says 'Proud Of You'
Shaheer Shaikh took to his Instagram story to express his admiration for Kannappa, helmed by Mukesh Kumar Singh. Kannappa, the Vishnu Manchu starrer mythological drama, was released on June 27, with high expectations. While the film is receiving mixed reviews on social media, television actor Shaheer Shaikh took to his Instagram story to share admiration for the movie and its director, Mukesh Kumar Singh. In a wholesome post, the actor shared a clip of himself watching the film, accompanied by a glowing caption that praised the director's work. In a touching Instagram story, Shaheer Shaikh shared his excitement about watching Kannappa, posting a video featuring the film's title screen with intricate visuals. His enthusiasm was palpable as he wrote, 'Finally watching Kannappa." What followed was a touching gesture of appreciation for the director, Mukesh Kumar Singh, with Shaheer expressing his pride, saying, 'Proud of you, Mukesh sir." This sincere message conveyed his admiration for the director's work, showcasing Shaheer's genuine support for the film. About Kannappa The mythological drama Kannappa, directed by Mukesh Kumar Singh, has made a significant impact at the box office since its release in multiple languages, including Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam and Hindi. With the Telugu version leading the charge, the film has garnered attention for its star-studded cameos, featuring industry heavyweights like Mohanlal, Prabhas, Akshay Kumar and Kajal Aggarwal. The ensemble cast, comprising seasoned actors like Mohan Babu, R. Sarathkumar, Madhoo and Preity Mukhundhan, adds depth and richness to the narrative. Kannappa tells the inspiring story of Thinnadu, a tribal hunter who transforms into the revered Shiva devotee Kannappa. The movie chronicles his remarkable journey from an atheist to one of Lord Shiva's most devoted followers, showcasing his unwavering dedication and ultimate sacrifice. Interestingly, Vishnu Manchu recently revealed at a press conference in Hyderabad that some exceptional scenes had to be cut from the film due to subpar visual effects (VFX). Despite this setback, Kannappa has achieved significant success, becoming Vishnu's highest-grossing film to date. This is a notable turnaround, considering his previous films, Ginna and Mosagallu, struggled to cross the Rs 1 crore mark. On Shaheer Sheikh's work front, the actor was last seen in Do Patti alongside Kriti Sanon in the lead, where he played the role of an abusive husband named Dhruv Sood. First Published:
