V’s Pomeranian Yeontan trended on Twitter, Jin discussed his pets on V Live and J-Hope dedicated a performance on TV programme Show! Music Core to them – meet the pets of BTS

In some ways, the boys in BTS are just like us.

Okay, most of us aren’t releasing chart-topping hit after chart-topping hit, or casually buying entire buildings with the billions to our name. But when it comes to appreciating cute, fluffy animals, BTS and the rest of us are in agreement.

The K-pop group’s members are true animal lovers who regularly fawn over their pets on social media. And fans have even taken their cue by donating to animal organisations on their behalf.

Read on to meet BTS’ pets, who’ve risen to fame just like their owners.

When most of us get a new dog, the news doesn’t usually end up trending on Twitter, as much as we’d like it to. But that’s because we aren’t V. When V introduced his new Pomeranian to the world, the announcement was met with a massive response, taking 15th place on Twitter’s trending topics.

Meet Yeontan – which means coal briquette in Korean – or Tannie for short. V can’t seem to stop himself from taking videos and pictures of Tannie and uploading them to his social media, and now Tannie has a fan base, as well.
