Besides, this is a fact that BTS V, who turns 27 today, is also loved and adored in India. The subcontinent is known as Tae Tae Land because of the love that desi BTS fans shower on Kim Taehyung, also fondly known as V. Today in order to make his birthday more unforgettable, Kolkata fans have put an LED ad on top of Vardaan Mall in Park Street. The ad got placed in the middle of Park Street, decorated for Christmas 2022. We can see that a big crowd has gathered to make videos of the birthday ad. Surprisingly, it is not the first time. Last year, they put an ad on the top of the most iconic Flury's cafe in Kolkata. Well, this time, there is a cup sleeve event happening too. It is one of the first for a country like India. Korean food is getting served in a food truck in the city. It looks like BTS has to take notice of this desi love and make India a priority on tour destinations when they re-group. Posting the ad on Twitter on December 28, a V fanpage in their tweet caption wrote, "Our Kolkata ad is live! Vardaan Market, Kolkata 28-31 December '22 10am - 10pm Let's shower our love for Taehyung. Please visit & commemorate his birthday. Do tag us with pics and videos!."
