Alright ARMY, settle in because V (Kim Taehyung) has officially done it again. In what can only be described as riding into civilian life like a viral storm, the man teamed up with choreographer Lee‑jung Lee to dance to “Don’t Drop That Thun Thun”, and guess what? As of June 23, the video racked up a whopping 13.1 million likes on TikTok, making it the most-liked video by a K-pop artist in 2025. And that’s just TikTok—Instagram count is creeping past 69 million views.
Let’s be clear: V doesn’t even have an official TikTok account. Nope. Yet here he is, dominating trends and smashing records without trying. It’s like showing up for a quiet walk and accidentally walking into record books.
The Video That Said “I’m Back”
Released June 11 on Lee‑jung Lee’s channel, the dance collaboration paired V’s effortlessly elegant kicks with a playful beat from 2012’s hit. Within days, it had breached 12 million likes—and just kept climbing.
13.1 million likes doesn’t just break records—it disassembles them. Let’s be real: compared to that, most artists’ biggest releases look like nail bombing practice.
Why This Isn’t Just a Dance Video
- It’s his first choreographed clip since military discharge—a statement in motion, not noise.
- It hits the sweet spot between playful and powerful—V doesn’t dance; he artfully commands the frame.
- It’s all organic—no official posting, no paid promo, just raw charisma doing its thing.

He’s pulled over 70 million views across platforms, with zero personal promotion. This isn’t a campaign, it’s influence in its purest, unfiltered form.
No flashy comeback needed. No single announcement. Just V dancing, and the world responding in unison.
