Of all the members of BTS, V has always existed in a category of his own — an artist whose depth, mystery, and otherworldly presence has captivated millions around the world.
But what does BaZi reveal about the man behind the artistry?
V’s Birth Information
Full name: Kim Tae-hyung (김태형) Stage name: V Date of birth: December 30, 1995
Note: V’s exact birth time is not publicly known. This reading is based on his Year, Month, and Day pillars only.
V’s BaZi Chart: Three Pillars
| Pillar | Heavenly Stem | Earthly Branch |
|---|---|---|
| Year | 乙 Yǐ (Yin Wood) | 亥 Hài (Pig) |
| Month | 戊 Wù (Yang Earth) | 子 Zǐ (Rat) |
| Day | 乙 Yǐ (Yin Wood) | 未 Wèi (Goat) |
“A delicate flower blooming through winter frost — quiet strength, deep warmth, and enduring beauty.”
V’s Day Master: Yin Wood (乙)
V’s Day Master is Yin Wood (乙) — the vine, the flower, or the graceful willow. Where Yang Wood (甲) is the tall oak tree — upright, direct, and commanding — Yin Wood is something far more subtle and far more mysterious. Yin Wood bends rather than breaks. It finds its way around every obstacle. It grows sideways, upward, and inward — following light wherever it appears.
This is V in essence: deeply creative and endlessly imaginative, flexible and adaptable — impossible to pin down, quietly persistent beneath a gentle exterior, an aesthetic sensitivity that borders on the supernatural, and a personality that reveals itself slowly, in layers. The artist who paints, collects vintage cameras, and loses himself in music for hours — this is Yin Wood at its most beautiful.
乙未 Day Pillar: The White Tiger
V’s Day Pillar is 乙未 — Yin Wood sitting on the Goat branch (未). In Korean BaZi tradition, 乙未 is associated with 백호살 (白虎殺) — the White Tiger energy. 백호살 is one of the most powerful presence energies in all of BaZi. It produces people who appear gentle and soft on the surface — but who can suddenly command an entire room with a single look.
This is V on stage. The contrast between his warm, almost innocent off-stage personality and the overwhelming charisma he radiates in performance is not an act — it is 백호살 energy expressing itself exactly as nature intended.
The Goat (未) also carries Earth energy, holding hidden stems of 丁火 (Yin Fire) — warmth and intimacy, 乙木 (Yin Wood) — creative depth, and 己土 (Yin Earth) — grounding and stability. This layered hidden energy is the BaZi explanation for why V always feels like there is more beneath the surface — because there always is.
편재 (Indirect Wealth): The Gift of Connection
The Earth energy in V’s Day Branch acts as 편재 (Indirect Wealth) for his Yin Wood Day Master. 편재 produces natural magnetism and social ease, the ability to connect with anyone anywhere instantly, a broad and generous view of the world, and an instinctive understanding of what others find beautiful. V’s legendary ability to make everyone around him feel immediately at ease — and his reputation for striking up genuine connections with strangers — is 편재 energy at its most natural.
인성 (Resource Star): The Depth of Winter
V’s Month Pillar is 戊子 — Yang Earth Rat. The Rat (子) branch carries pure Water energy — and in BaZi, Water nourishes Wood. December-born, with a Rat month pillar, V carries the energy of deep winter within him — the season when life withdraws inward, when the world becomes still, and when the deepest creative work happens beneath the surface.
This Water energy acts as 인성 (Resource Star) for V’s Yin Wood — nourishing his creativity from deep underground, like winter rivers that keep a forest alive through the coldest months. This is why V’s artistry carries that unmistakable quality of something ancient and deeply felt — the vintage warmth, the philosophical depth, the sense that his creativity comes from somewhere beyond ordinary experience.
간여지동: Wood Meeting Wood
V’s Year Pillar stem is also 乙木 (Yin Wood) — matching his Day Master exactly. This creates a 간여지동 effect — his core Yin Wood identity is deeply rooted and consistently expressed throughout his entire life. V is not someone who changes his fundamental nature to fit his environment. His artistic identity, his aesthetic sensibility, and his way of seeing the world have always been authentically, unmistakably his own.
Five Elements Balance
| Element | Strength | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Wood 木 | Dominant | Day Master 乙, Year Stem 乙, hidden in Day Branch |
| Earth 土 | Strong | Day Branch 未, Month Stem 戊 |
| Water 水 | Present | Month Branch 子, Year Branch 亥 |
| Fire 火 | Hidden | Day Branch contains hidden 丁 |
| Metal 金 | Absent | — |
The absence of Metal is significant. Metal controls Wood — it is the pruning force that shapes and refines creative energy. Its absence means V’s creativity flows with extraordinary freedom — uncontained, unfiltered, and deeply authentic. When Fire and Earth energy enter V’s luck cycles or annual luck, his talents expand outward most dramatically — reaching the widest audiences and producing his most celebrated work.
This BaZi pattern strongly supports the potential for V to build a legendary legacy not just in music, but across fashion, visual art, film, and other creative fields where his unique vision can fully express itself.
2026: V’s BaZi Forecast
2026 is the Year of the Fire Horse (丙午) — a double Fire year. For V’s Yin Wood chart, Fire represents 식신 (Eating God) — the energy of creative expression, natural talent, and artistic output.
2026 brings a powerful activation of V’s creative expression, increased visibility through artistic endeavors, natural effortless outward expression of his inner world, and a year where his art resonates with the widest audience yet. The Fire feeds V’s Wood — warmth, energy, and outward brilliance reach their peak. For V, 2026 is the year the winter flower finally blooms in full — and the entire world stops to look.
