'W Korea' unveils BTS V's (Kim Taehyung) flawless live performance of 'FRI(END)S' in collaboration with Cartier

Kim Taehyung, aka V from BTS, recently released 'FRI(END)S,' a pop soul R&B track that expresses the desire to "put the 'end' in friends" and elevate a longstanding friendship to a deeper level, as cleverly hinted by the title's wordplay.

On March 18, W Korea unveiled a 'FRI(END)S' live performance video in collaboration with the French luxury brand Cartier, for which Taehyung has been serving as the brand ambassador since July 2023.

In the video, Taehyung performs standing in the middle of Cartier's Maison Cheongdam, their flagship store in Seoul. The live performance showcases Taehyung's flawless and stable vocals and captures his visuals and aura as a fashion muse.


Taehyung's sleek attire, in rich brown and burgundy tones, is accessorized with gold Cartier jewelry and a watch to accentuate his dreamy visuals to the fullest.

According to W Korea, Taehyung couldn’t hide his excitement on the day of the shooting, saying that he was finally able to showcase the song he had treasured for two years. The song is described as a sweet and poignant confession, suitable for the Spring season.

This marks the beginning of W Korea's "Special Contents with V," a series of exclusive videos that will be released in the coming days for "FRI(END)S" in collaboration with Cartier.


American entertainment publication, 'Variety,' wrote about the performance, stating, "V’s smooth vocals, which seamlessly traverse between low and high ranges, fill the room. Through nuanced facial expressions that reflect his unwavering focus, intensifying in tandem with the song’s melody, V confidently showcases his magnetic presence as a solo artist with his distinctive sound."

Check out 'FRI(END)S' music video and song below.

I guess praising Taehyung makes some people super uncomfortable so let me repeat..."I love how supportive and collaborative the brands that Taehyung works with are especially when it comes to his artistry. It's obvious that they all really treasure and respect him and are proud to promote him as much as he promotes them. It's all very wholesome and I must say he sounds amazing live! Honestly thought it would be a hard song to perform live but he blew me away with how amazing he sounds. Congrats to our beloved Kim Taehyung!" Downvote all you want thirsty hoes...I'll continue to sing V's praises til thy Kingdom comes. 😉
