BTS's V has been dubbed ‘Idol of Idols’ by a media member after numerous idols named him as their inspiration. Over 55 idols have named Kim Taehyung as a ‘role model,’ and the list is only growing as the days go by.

Recently, at Hybe Japan Audition, a trainee named Gaku gained attention for his similar style and behavior to V; fans pointed out how the young man dresses and mimics Taehyung's style and expressions.

Later in the show, it was revealed that Gaku's 'role model' is none other than Kim Taehyung, as the trainee couldn't hold his tears after hearing V's message to them.

Pdogg, one of HYBE's producers and one of the judges in the show, teased the trainee by voicing his concern if he would be able to perform after crying too much. Juries revealed how much the trainee loves and adores V.

Taehyung is considered an inspiration due to his powerful stage presence, performances, and his beautiful soulful music. Many idols and artists showed their support and love for his songs, be it by recommending them to their fandoms or covering the songs themselves.

Recently, Choi TaeHun, Leader and dancer of newly debuted boy group TNX (The New Six) under PNation, recommended 'Sweet Night' by V.

Taehyung has left his mark and inspired younger idols with his versatility as a performer and his talent as a musician.
