Kim Taehyung, aka BTS’ V, lit up the stage with his “Slow Dancing” performance but surprisingly, his cutest surprise guest Yeontan was the one who stole the show.

On Thursday, September 14, Kim Yeontan, V’s pet Pomeranian, made his official music show debut through his special live appearance on the M Countdown stage. 

The performance started with a photo of Yeontan’s face from the album cover of Layover. Then, it transitioned to an actual video of the pet, leaving fans surprised. Prior to the performance, V had already hinted that he’ll have a special guest for that stage. Throughout V’s performance, Yeontan, affectionately called as Tannie, is seen strolling freely around the stage. 

And the cuteness didn’t even stop there as V also shared a photo of him with Yeontan backstage. What made the day even more special was that V also took home the music win for that day. So for his caption, he quipped that even his beloved Tannie also has a music win under his belt. 

ARMYs love Yeontan 

The clip of Tannie’s debut immediately went viral and garnered a lot of love on social media. Fans, especially ARMYs, can’t get over the duo’s cuteness and gushed over the heartwarming “father and son” moment.

“No one can steal the show from Kim Taehyung except of course Kim Yeontan! Most beautiful son and dad in the world!”, one fan wrote.

 

Others also pointed out how behaved Yeontan is and how fit he is to be a performer. “The way Yeontan  looks directly at the camera! He was born to be a star just like his father,” another stated.

 

More about Tannie

Even before making his stage debut, Tannie has already been widely admired by ARMYs worldwide. The black-and-tan Pomeranian was first introduced to the public in December 2017, during the live broadcast of BTS’ Jin.

Since then, Yeontan has made numerous appearances on the sensational group’s content. In fact, the well-loved dog appeared in behind-the-scenes clips, photoshoots, and even in the BTS: Burn The Stage film.

However, V disclosed some time ago that Tannie is having some health issues. According to the idol, his pet endured heart-related problems and endured two unsuccessful surgeries for it. In a recent guest appearance in Pixd, V shared how much he wants pets to have a longer life. 

With this sad news, fans expected that there’d be fewer chances to see Yeontan’s public appearance again given his sensitive health condition. Moreover, ARMYs are also hoping for the pet’s welfare. 

Which is why many fans are moved that V decided to include Tannie in Layover.  Notably, the singer has previously disclosed how the  pet played a huge part in his solo debut album. Not only was Yeontan the face of his album cover, but V also posed with his pet for some concept photos.
