On September 1, BTS’s V attended the 2025 Paradise Art Night to celebrate the opening of Frieze Seoul art week. The exclusive event was held at Paradise City Art Space in Incheon, coinciding with the preview of Paradise Found, the first solo exhibition in Korea by New York-based pop artist Joel Mesler.
Photos from the night showed V mingling with fellow stars, including BLACKPINK’s Lisa. However, it wasn’t just the star-studded guest list that captured attention. Netizens couldn’t help but notice the kimbap V was casually carrying in his hand.
One fan who shared the photo wrote, “Instead of walking around with a champagne glass at the party, BTS’s V was walking around with a whole kimbap… They even served dinner there, so maybe the portions weren’t enough? But did he actually pack that kimbap himself? That’s hilarious. lol. So he was just munching on it the whole time. lol.”
Other netizens joined the community and also found the photo hilarious. They commented:
“What’s with the kimbap. lol. He ate it so thoroughly; look at the bite marks. Cute.”
“Isn’t it even funnier that there’s kimbap at a party like that? Why is there a whole kimbap there?”
“The bite mark on the Kimbap. lol.”
“Maybe it was kimbap prepared by the organizers for catering? Too cute.”
“Agree, super cute.”
“From what I saw, the organizers probably asked V to stay until the end. If not, he would’ve just eaten dinner there and gone home to eat more. His walking around munching on kimbap is legendary.”
“This is hilarious.. Is that Lisa next to him??”
“This is so funny.”
“What is this? It’s funny and cute at the same time.”
“He must’ve been hungry.”
“Omg this is insane, I can’t stop laughing. Lol. My favorite idol is out here munching on a whole kimbap at a party…”
