The K-pop icon joins other A-list stars such as Rami Malek, Elle Fanning, Jackson Wang and more.&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CthvncFLzCs/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rumours</a> have been swirling since June this year that one of the members of top K-pop boy group, <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/culture/bts-jungkook-han-so-hee-play-turbulent-couple-solo-single-seven-latto" title="BTS' Jungkook &amp; Han So-Hee Play A Turbulent Couple In His Solo Single &quot;Seven&quot;" target="_blank" rel="noopener">BTS</a> is being picked up by <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/living/apply-now-to-be-a-cartier-womens-initiative-programme-2024" title="How You Can Be Part of The Next Cartier Women&rsquo;s Initiative" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cartier</a> to be their ambassador. At that time, fans and media outlets such as Hypebeast were speculating that the member is likely to be Jin. Today, we've got confirmation it is in fact, Kim Tae-hyung, better known by his stage name V, who is becoming the French maison's newest global ambassador.&nbsp;
The announcement was made this morning when it was unveiled by the maison that V was also the star of their latest <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/jewellery/panthere-de-cartier-jewellery-articulated" title="Panth&egrave;re de Cartier Jewellery Now Fully Articulated For A Snug Fit">Panth&egrave;re de Cartier</a> campaign. "When it came to embodying the magnetism and aura of the panther, our choice naturally fell on V," Senior Vice-president and Chief Marketing Officer, Arnaud Carrez explained, "He has the look and strength of character. A personality whose choices are guided by creativity as a dancer, musician or art lover, with this style and this elegance that belong only to him."
V will be joining an already star-studded list of ambassadors for the maison, including <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/culture/cover-story-may-2023-magic-man-louis-vuitton-jackson-wang" title="Cover Story: Moments of Magic with Jackson Wang" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jackson Wang</a>, <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/celebrities-longchamp-x-toiletpaper-fashion-collaboration-elle-fanning-india-amarteifio" title="Elle Fanning, India Amarteifio &amp; More Celebrate Longchamp x Toiletpaper Collaboration" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Elle Fanning</a>, <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/jewellery/rami-malek-jackson-wang-maisie-williams-and-more-fronts-cartier-s-pasha-campaign" title="Rami Malek, Jackson Wang, Maisie Williams And More Fronts Cartier&rsquo;s Pasha Watch Campaign" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rami Malek</a>, <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/willow-smith-is-playing-a-whole-new-ball-game" title="Willow Smith is Playing a Whole New Ball Game" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Willow Smith</a> and more. The K-pop icon is already famously the face of <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/celine-latest-creations-are-a-portrait-of-now" title="Celine's Latest Creations Are A Portrait Of Now" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Celine</a> and his incredible influence has seen many pieces worn by him instantly selling out. We would imagine the same is likely to be the case for any jewellery piece the star chooses to don.&nbsp;

While V is known for his work with his fellow BTS members, the star is also steadily building his solo discography which includes hits like "Stigma", "Singularity" and "Inner Child". V has also flexed his song-writing skills with contributions in songs like, "4 O'CLOCK", "Scenery", "Winter Bear" and &ldquo;Blue &amp; Grey&rdquo;. Beyond music, V has became even more of a household name by being part of Youn's Kitchen, a Korean cooking variety programme alongside his IRL friends, <a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/culture/first-look-park-seo-joon-upcoming-film-the-marvels" title="A First Look at Park Seo-Joon in Upcoming Film, 'The Marvels'" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Park Seo-joon</a> and Choi Woo-shik.&nbsp;
