Posted by YeontanNews124,415 pts Saturday, May 21, 2022

Since Kim Taehyung's adopted pet Yeontan was first introduced in 2017, he has become a massive part of V's life and the BTS family. ARMYs have watched him grow alongside the members. 

Taehyung adopted Yeontan despite knowing that raising him would be challenging due to his poor health. But being the considerate animal lover that he is, Taehyung has won hearts through his efforts and has shown everyone that he is the perfect father.

Due to his overwhelming popularity, Yeotan's personal hashtag has now surpassed 530 million views on TikTok, the first celebrity pet to do so. 

Yeontan's fame is not limited to TikTok but also extends to other popular platforms, including Google, Youtube, and Instagram. 


Like his father, who is the most-searched K-pop idol
, Yeontan also dominates in Google Trends and has been the most-searched dog and pet in the last five years.

MNET previously reported that "How to be Yeontan?" was a popular Google search as people envy Yeontan's closeness to Taehyung. The duo was also chosen as the #1 best idol-pet pairings. 

On Youtube, videos of Yeontan compete with popular K-pop idols in views. Korea Dispatch's video of the duo is among the Top 5 most-viewed videos on their official channel. 

Taehyung's airport fancam with Yeontan is also among NewsenTV's top 10 most-viewed videos of all time on their channel. 

On Instagram, it is well-known that Yeontan's individual post is the most-liked post by an Asian act, surpassing even his own father! 


Yeontan's fame has gone beyond the K-pop sphere, and he is constantly featured alongside celebrity pets owned by Hollywood stars.

It has also become a tradition for fans to celebrate Yeontan's birthday every year by trending multiple hashtags and keywords worldwide on Twitter to shower him with a lot of love.
