The Reason Behind The Name Vante
Now you already know that V is also known by his photographer name which is Vante, on BTS’ official Twitter account. And come to think of it, do you know why did he name himself Vante? What’s the meaning behind that name? Well, it was said that V is a fan of a famous photographer from Australia, Ante Badzim, that is already well-known in the photography field, and has already taken a lot of photos and has shown them on many exhibitions. V got the name Vante because he combined his stage name, V, with Ante’s name and we finally got Vante as V’s new nickname as a photographer. Knowing that V of BTS is a fan of him, Ante Badzim responded to this positively. On one of Ante’s posts on Instagram, he posted a photo and mentioned V and gave the photo to the guy that was born on December 30th, 1995. Not only that, but he also put a hashtag Vante, as a way of showing some support for V as a photographer. As V replied to his favorite photographer, on BTS’ official Twitter account, V also responded to the photo that Ante Badzim shared on his Instagram. When Ante Badzim posted an aesthetic photo of a sky-pool and two men in the background, V posted back to Ante Badzim with two pictures in a row of greyscale pictures and wrote a caption:
