V, a member of BTS, will soon step onto the field of a Major League Baseball (MLB) stadium in the United States.

The LA Dodgers announced on the 18th through their official social media accounts, sharing the message “ARMY, you ready?”. V is scheduled to throw the ceremonial first pitch on August 26 (local time: August 25) at Dodger Stadium.
This event marks a special meeting between V, who has shown a keen interest in sports, especially baseball, and Major League Baseball. The collaboration between such a globally renowned sporting event and a BTS member is already drawing attention from sports and music fans worldwide.
It will be V’s very first time participating in a ceremonial first pitch, which has only heightened anticipation. Fans are also watching closely to see if he will meet Kim Hye Sung, the Korean player currently with the LA Dodgers.
In the past, V has proven his international influence by working as a model across various fields. This first pitch is expected to be a special moment, once again highlighting his global presence.
Meanwhile, BTS, of which V is a member, has officially announced a comeback in the spring of 2026, along with a large-scale world tour. Since July, all members have been traveling to the United States one by one to focus on music production and preparations for live performances.
