BTS V's Yeontan's 8th birthday aniversary: Fans honor the late beloved pomeranian with charity work

Worldwide tributes

On September 7, fans across the world celebrated what would have been Yeontan's 8th birthday through coordinated online tributes. Hashtags like #ForeverWithYeontan and "tannie" soared to global trends, reflecting the enduring affection for the Pomeranian often called BTS's "eighth member.

" According to Star News syndication, reposted locally, the wave of remembrance followed V's own earlier tribute and resonated deeply among fans who have long embraced Yeontan as part of BTS's family.

Charitable giving across regions

The commemorations extended beyond social media into philanthropy, as global fanbases organized donations to animal protection groups in Yeontan's name. 'V Union' and 'KTH_UK' directed their contribution to the UK's RSPCA, while 'BTS V Spain' supported the Vegan Sanctuary Foundation.

India's 'Taehyung India' helped AWCS in its aid for flood-impacted animals, 'V CREW BR' in Brazil donated to CEL, and 'Kim Taehyung Myanmar' channeled support to Oasis Shelter.

MK Sports reported that these initiatives highlight the community-driven influence of V, anchoring the memorial mood in meaningful acts of giving.

Legacy of remembrance

Local recaps revisited V's past comments on Yeontan's fragile health and his late-2024 announcement of the pet's passing, which deeply moved fans.

The recent charity drives continue a pattern seen in previous years, when Yeontan-inspired campaigns trended internationally and funded welfare efforts. Starnews noted that this continuity shows how the artist's visibility and the fandom's organization sustained consistent attention on social causes.

Cultural impact

The birthday tributes and linked donations illustrate how pop communities mobilize not only in remembrance but also in service. By joining across borders, fans amplified awareness for animal welfare and reinforced a shared culture of philanthropy. MK Sports emphasized that these efforts embody an enduring circle of giving connected to both V's values and Yeontan's cherished place in fandom memory.
