Shohei Ohtani, Japan’s most celebrated active baseball player, and V, one of Korea’s best-known musicians, met at an LA Dodgers game on Monday.
BTS member Kim Tae-hyung, known professionally as V, met with the Dodgers’ designated hitter Ohtani at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles before the Dodgers played the Cincinnati Reds.
V met with Ohtani in the dugout before leaving to throw the ceremonial first pitch. The two superstars shook hands and exchanged a hug.
“2 of the biggest global superstars,” the Dodgers described the meeting in a post along with a video of the two on X.
