Only Kim Taehyung (V) could accidentally commit the world’s softest “crime” and have the internet collectively laughing, swooning, and defending him all at once.
While in Paris for CELINE’s Spring 2026 show, Taehyung was spotted interacting with fans outside his hotel, taking time to sign autographs and greet ARMYs with that warm Taehyung smile we’ve missed seeing in public. Everything was going smoothly until, in a moment that can only be described as peak V chaos, he accidentally walked off with a fan’s autograph book.
Yes, you read that right. Taehyung, in the middle of signing and greeting, tucked the fan’s book under his arm and strolled away like it was a cute new accessory, leaving the fan blinking in confusion while other ARMYs tried to process what had just happened.
The best part? Fans didn’t even get mad. Instead, ARMYs flooded social media with memes and jokes, saying things like, “Bro thought it was a gift,” and “Imagine explaining to customs that Taehyung accidentally stole your notebook,” turning what could have been a disaster into another legendary fandom moment.
Meanwhile, the fan clarified later that the book was safely returned, proving that while Taehyung might accidentally walk off with your property, he would never actually steal it. It’s just that his brain was probably buffering after being surrounded by screaming fans, flashing cameras, and trying to give everyone a moment of his time.
It’s also a reminder of why ARMYs love Taehyung so much. This wasn’t about a celebrity brushing off a fan or ignoring them in public. This was about a genuine, kind human being trying to connect with the people who support him, even if it means accidentally turning your autograph book into his temporary purse.
Fans also highlighted how, despite the chaos, Taehyung’s sincerity shone through during the interaction, with him taking the time to sign multiple items and greet as many ARMYs as possible, reminding everyone that he’s not just an idol but someone who genuinely appreciates his fans.
The entire situation quickly became another “only Taehyung” story, adding to the endless collection of his wholesome, unintentional chaos moments that ARMYs will bring up for years. And honestly, it’s these small, unplanned interactions that make the connection between BTS and ARMY so special.
So here’s to Taehyung, for proving that even when he’s accidentally stealing your stuff, he’s still the sweetest human alive—and for giving us another hilarious fandom memory we didn’t know we needed.
And to that fan: Congratulations, your notebook has officially been held hostage by Kim Taehyung in Paris. Iconic behavior.
