On December 18, Pop Core reported on X that Compose Coffee confirmed BTS' Taehyung as its brand ambassador after pushback from franchise owners. The decision came directly from store operators nationwide who reportedly pushed hard for his appointment.
Out of the reported 6 billion KRW advertising contract, franchisees collectively covered 2 billion KRW. Their financial backing played a key role in finalizing the deal. The company ultimately moved forward with the K-pop idol after the demand.
Fans are commenting on V's demand, with one X user saying,
"Yes he is on demand 😏 Most demanded kpop idol❤️🔥🔥"Yes he is on demand 😏Most demanded kpop idol❤️🔥🔥

Notably, the Winter Bear singer currently serves as a brand ambassador for eight other brands as well. Reports that the 29-year-old received approximately $4 million for the Compose Coffee deal further piqued the interest of netizens. Many are speculating about the scale of compensation he may have received from his other brand partnerships.
Wow that's just over $4 million. And he has 9 deals....and they want us to believe that his net worth is just 40 million.
