The conversation that took place between BTS V and Olivia Rodrigo is one of the most talked-about moments of the Grammys this year. The world was eagerly awaiting the live Grammy event, which was finally hosted on April 3, 2022. ARMY all over the world was sad since BTS was not one of the winners. They were more than happy when BTS soon became the talk of the town.
BTS performed for the second time at the Grammy breaking all sorts of records for East Asians and setting new highs for South Korea. They were able to perform both solo and in-person acts which have surely made history in terms of South Korean representation in the world on a huge global scale. There were a lot of noteworthy moments that revolved around BTS. Some of them are Lady Gaga taking pictures with V to Trevor Noah singing “Red Light Green Light” along with BTS as well.
However, the performance that stole the show was when BTS performed Butter. Billboard even went as far as to say that BTS’ performance was the highlight of the show as well. The innovative concept that BTS used, wherein they were able to channel their inner James Bond went viral, with ARMY calling for V to make his comeback as an actor as well.
But the flirty interaction Olivia Rodrigo and BTS’ V shared together was surely the moment that was able to create a lot of buzz around this year’s Grammys. In this small but swoon-worthy interaction, it can be seen that V was sitting next to Olivia Rodrigo, where he leaned in and whispered something in her ear. Another moment taken straight out of a drama shows BTS’ V then take out a card from behind her and flick it towards the stage as well.

What Did BTS V Tell Olivia Rodrigo?
Fans were watching with bated breath to see Olivia Rodrigo’s surprised face when she was the one who was affected by being in close proximity with V. Even people who were sitting and watching this interaction occur on their TV screens could feel the palpable chemistry ad tension between these two music legends. ARMY was hurt and tried to play off this moment by setting their eyes on Ed Sheeran in case it would make V jealous.
Finally, ARMY (and the rest of the world) can finally know what happened between BTS’ V and Olivia Rodrigo on April 6, during a live chat with fans. ARMY seized this precious moment and was able to get an answer out of V. He stated that since he does not speak English, he just wanted to whisper something professional in her ear. The fans on the live chat assumed that V was able to speak in Korean to Olivia Rodrigo, and she was able to maintain her professionalism as well, despite not knowing the language. However, fans were in for a shock when BTS’ V said that he did not even speak in Korean!
This obviously led to some questions as to which language the pair had conversed in. BTS’ V also made a statement that said, “Olivia is a hero,” which garnered a lot more appreciation from ARMY and other fans as well. BTS’ V candidly spoke that while he has no memory of what the conversation was actually about since he was anxious about his performance, he does remember saying to Olivia Rodrigo that she needed to act surprised as well. Maybe it was in order to calm his nerves. Fans were able to notice that she gave him a pat on the back before his performance started as well.
“You Did Great!”
ARMY and global fans were going nuts over this seemingly simple exchange. One of the fans tweeted the following – “Taehyung being so nervous with the performance that you can notice that his hand was even shaking, but he really handled it professionally. The skit with Olivia is really that impressive and is going viral; “you did great taetae.”
