9 Hilarious Reactions To BTS V’s Dog Yeontan’s TV Debut

Though Layover is BTS member V’s debut solo album, it has somehow turned into an even bigger career move for his beloved pet dog, Yeontan.

Since the album was first teased, it was evident that Yeontan was an important part of the project. He was everywhere — from the concept photos to the album cover. V even had him star in his music videos, although by proxy.

While fans were jokingly calling it Yeontan’s debut, V seriously considered it so. On September 14, KST, Yeontan actually made his official debut on broadcasting, ticking another box from any usual debut rollout of an idol. He appeared with V on Mnet’s M COUNTDOWN.

Yeontan’s TV debut was a hit, and like every hitmaker, he became topic of conversation online, drawing some chuckle-worthy reactions from ARMYs.

1. New “It Boy” in town

He just debuted but already ended careers.

6. Let him breathe!

He’s just a rookie, still learning the ropes.

like i didn’t want to bring this negativity on the tl but i just can’t get over the way fame has changed #him so much. like us fans have been waiting for years for his official debut but you’re telling me he couldn’t even bother to let out bark for us? maybe he was nervous idk

7. Realistically, yes.

Did he even sign a contract? Does he know how the industry works?
