BTS’ V and BLACKPINK’s Lisa reunite at Seoul art event, but fans are obsessed with the half-eaten kimbap in V’s hand in the viral photo.
BTS’ V and Lisa reunite at Frieze Paradise Art Night Seoul.
BTS member V and BLACKPINK’s Lisa were spotted together this week at the Frieze Paradise Art Night in Seoul, delighting K-pop fans worldwide. While fellow idols RM, Jisoo, and Rosé were also present, the real focus quickly shifted to a viral photo of V and Lisa standing shoulder-to-shoulder, but it’s not the reunion that has netizens buzzing.
The Kimbap Steals The Spotlight
In the now-viral image shared by attendee Tommy Brow, Lisa strikes a cheerful ‘V’ pose next to the BTS star, a photo that would normally have fans talking about their long-awaited reunion. However, V is holding a half-eaten block of kimbap in his left hand, recently bitten, and it’s captured mid-bite. Fans immediately noticed, turning the spotlight onto the snack rather than the iconic duo themselves. The combination of the superstar moment and the unexpected mid-bite snack has made fans erupt in laughter across social media.
This isn’t the first time V and Lisa have been seen together. Former co-brand ambassadors for CELINE, the two were previously spotted at Paris events alongside Park Bo Gum, where their visual chemistry drew attention. Since then, Lisa has shifted to Louis Vuitton, and fans haven’t seen the pair interact — making this Seoul reunion all the more special, even if a block of kimbap ended up stealing the show.
Fans React And Memes Flood Social Media
Social media users quickly turned the moment into a meme-worthy sensation. Some joked about V being “caught red-handed mid-snack,” while others speculated whether he was pulled into the photo mid-bite. Despite the humor, fans expressed excitement at seeing the two K-pop icons in the same frame again. The juxtaposition of the elegant art event, global superstars, and a simple Korean snack created a viral moment that’s dominating feeds and fan forums alike.
As netizens continue to gush over Lisa and V, it seems the kimbap moment will remain one of the most talked-about details of the night.
