V had no intention of becoming an Idol.

Due to an odd turn of circumstances, one of BTS’s top vocalists and performers joined the group. To support a buddy, he attended tryouts, and as a result, he was given the opportunity to train as an idol. Both V and ARMY were fortunate that day.

He later worked as a trainee with BigHit Entertainment for around three years until making his debut in 2013.

He nearly gave up training.

V called his father to inform him of his desire to leave before BTS made their debut. The singer discussed that occurrence in the You Quiz on the Block episode. “I called him crying because being a trainee was so difficult. He said, “If it’s too hard, you may quit,” when I informed him I wanted to stop, he said.
