How Many BTS Members Have Piercings?

How Many BTS Members Have Piercings? We Have Some Answers

  • Nearly every member of the K-pop sensation group BTS have piercings.
  • Some even have multiple piercings, including Jimin, Jungkook, V, and Jin.
  • There is only one BTS member with none (yet).

The members of BTS may not have a lot of tattoos, but that's not the case with piercings. Among the whole band, there are a few dozen piercings, and nearly ever single member has at least one. (We'll tell you later who doesn't have any.) But let's be real — a piercing is much easier to commit to than a tattoo, so we can understand why there are way more piercings to be had here.

Every time BTS steps out at an event, a performance, or on a red carpet, they're dressed to the nines — and that includes their accessories. Hoops and dangly earrings are a must for these men to look smooth like butter, and we're here for all of it. ARMYs keep a close watch on how many piercings each member has, especially when something major happens, like when Jungkook pierced his eyebrow (and then took it out). While there are some piercings that we haven't confirmed (but hope exist), there are a lot that we do know about, as well as stories behind them.

Ahead, check out all of BTS's piercings that we know of and see the estimated count we have for all of them. Some have closed up, but we have a pretty accurate guess.

How Many Piercings Does Jimin Have?

Jimin has five piercings in his ears — two in his left and three in his right. He said in 2019 that he got his first ear piercing when he came to Seoul, South Korea, to meet with Big Hit Entertainment. He was meant to meet up with V, but he was asleep. While he was waiting for him, he came across a piercing stand and decided to just go ahead and get his ears pierced.

How Many Piercings Does V Have?

V has five known piercings in his ears. He doesn't always wear all five anymore, but he had three piercings in his left lobe and two in his right lobe. Most of the time he only wears earrings in some of the holes.

How Many Piercings Does J-Hope Have?

J-Hope is the only member of BTS with no piercings (that we know of), and he seemingly has no plans to get any. He said during a livestream in 2018, "I love my ears so much. I want them to remain the pure, natural way that they are." And while he has been spotted with earrings from time to time, they've all been fake.

How Many Piercings Does Jungkook Have?

Jungkook is the most pierced member of BTS, and we're not completely certain of how many holes he actually has. He had his eyebrow pierced in the past but doesn't wear it anymore, and also has his lip pierced. As for his ears, we estimate at least six in his right ear and at least three in his left ear. He wears several studs and hoops, but sometimes it's unclear if each stud is a separate earring. We think he has somewhere in the neighbourhood of 11 piercings. There's been chatter of other piercings (like his tongue or his nipple), but nothing has been confirmed.

RM only has one piercing in each ear (so two total), and he usually wears earrings in both.
