'Yubin, fighting!' BTS V and RM Cheers for the Paris Olympics



RM and V, BTS members of K-pop's leading boy group, have certified watching the KBS Paris Olympics.

They posted a video of KBS's opening ceremony broadcast and a message of support for Shin Yu-bin on their personal SNS.

On the 27th, RM captured and posted part of the screen of the KBS opening ceremony of the '2024 Paris Olympics' on his personal SNS. KBS presented three keywords for each country using AI at the opening ceremony of the 2024 Paris Olympics. When the South Korean team entered, BTS (BTS), kimchi, and hanbok were presented as the three keywords representing the country.



In response, RM expressed his joy by posting the scene on his personal SNS, saying, `Let's get it.' V showed his love for fans by synthesizing BTS' fandom name 'ARMY' under the AI keyword of the same KBS opening ceremony. V also watched the national table tennis player 'Piyak' Shin Yu-bin's game "Yu-bin, fighting!" Fighting, Republic of Korea!" he wrote in a supporting post.

Among the BTS members, Jin was the torchbearer for the 2024 Paris Olympics and received hot attention even before the competition. RM and V, who showed their love and pride through the broadcast screen of KBS at the Paris Olympics, are scheduled to be discharged from the military next year.



Meanwhile, KBS took the lead in the fencing men's sabre individual match, which began on the afternoon of the 27th (Korea time), beating MBC and SBS, which had 4.7% (Nilson Korea) with 5.2% nationwide (Nilson Korea) ratings.

It was followed by 3.3% in the round of 16 and 2.9% in the quarterfinals, outpacing other companies in all three games, proving its luxury relay power. The previous day, Song Seung-hwan x Lee Jae-hoo, the only broadcaster to broadcast the opening ceremony live, also hit an overall high of 1.4%.
