He continued, “I woke up earlier than expected… Usually, I can sleep really well, but I think this has happened ever since I returned from the military. I wake up at the slightest sound… earlier, someone just dropped by to clean, and I woke up at the sound of it.” Taehyung was live for around 9 minutes and had a little conversation with fans. At one point, he even said that since there were so many English comments on the screen, he felt sleepy again and asked if someone could translate them into Korean. Fans joked, “Let’s flood with more English comments so he falls asleep again.” He then signed off after greeting fans in different languages.

Taehyung’s sleep struggle revelation comes just days after BTS leader RM aka Kim Namjoon’s comment on his military training went viral, where he opened up about crying all night, not being able to sleep, and even taking medications. Though he never directly said the harsh training took a toll, fans have since picked up on his hesitation whenever the topic of military service comes up. Earlier, V, who served in one of the fiercest units, the SDT for counter-terrorism, also shared that out of habit, he now wakes up early in the morning around 6:30 for a military roll call.

Taehyung is set to headline the CELINE Printemps 2026 fashion show on July 6. Hours after the live call, the K-pop star was seen walking out of his hotel dressed in a navy blue and red striped knit polo paired with blue denims, and was greeted by a huge number of fans who had gathered outside the hotel to catch a glimpse. He then stopped at a Parisian bistro for a meal with Peter Utz, CELINE’s Couture & Events Director. Later, he was seen checking out the jewellery pieces through the glass window before heading back to the hotel and then making an outfit change by evening, wearing a navy top tucked into gray trousers and a silk scarf.
