Fans of BTS’ V have been left worried after a viral social media video claimed that the singer was involved in a minor car accident while in the United States during the group’s ARIRANG Tour.
The clip, which has spread rapidly across multiple platforms, alleges that the vehicle carrying V was involved in a small traffic incident, leaving the car unable to continue. According to the person who shared the video, V was then forced to walk the remaining distance to his destination.
The claim immediately sparked concern throughout the fandom, with many fans expressing relief that the alleged accident appeared to be minor while also hoping that V had not been injured. Messages of support quickly flooded social media, with fans wishing him safety and urging others not to spread panic.

However, there is currently no official confirmation from BTS’ management or other reliable sources that the incident actually occurred. Aside from the circulating video and the accompanying claims made by the uploader, no evidence has been released to verify that V was involved in a traffic accident.
Because of the lack of confirmed information, many fans have also urged caution, reminding others not to treat unverified social media posts as established fact. Several pointed out that videos can often circulate without context or be accompanied by inaccurate descriptions, making it important to wait for official statements before drawing conclusions.
As of now, the reports remain unconfirmed, and there has been no indication from BTS or the group’s representatives that V suffered any injuries or that his schedule has been affected.

Until additional information becomes available, the viral clip should be viewed as an unverified online claim rather than confirmed news. Even so, the incident has once again highlighted how quickly speculation can spread online whenever it involves one of the world’s biggest K-pop stars, with fans closely watching for any official update regarding V’s condition.
