BTS' V posted a selfie holding a bottle of wine Wednesday and as usual, it sent his fans into a frenzy as they vied with each other to buy the expensive drink online.

Kim Taehyung, aka V, shared the photo on his Twitter account and it soon went viral, with the post receiving more than two million likes. It was V's first Twitter post since 2019. Within minutes, the topic "Kim Taehyung" started trending on Twitter, Koreaboo reported.

Though the post was in Korean, a fan translated it to English.

"I went into (checked out) my photo gallery but I don’t remember why I have this photo @bts_tweet," the tweet read, according to Twitter user @choi_bts2 said.

While some fans were happy just to see their icon's photo, others decided to take their dedication to another level as they tried to get a hold of the bottle of wine V was seen drinking in the photo.

Fans immediately trooped to Google and searched for the price of The Château Margaux (Premier Grand Cru Classé) 2001. Its price soon became the top trending searches on Google.

"[INFO] 6 minutes after Kim Taehyung's Twitter update 5 search words related to the Château Margaux wine were trending on Google trends. Margaux wine price was one of the highest searched queries on Google," a fan tweeted.

The 2001 Château Margaux costs around $939-$2,350 in the United States, according to online wine seller Vivino. However, the wine is not readily available and is bought mostly through auctions, wine searcher reported.

But that did not stop the ARMY members from trying. Since the original wine is rare and pricey, fans went for the next option – the 1992 Château Margaux, which is priced at $1055.79.
