Each of the BTS members are unique, and thatā€™s what makes the K-pop group so special. When it comes to height, though, two of the BTS members are pretty comparable. Hereā€™s what we know about the performers in this award-winning boy band.Ā 

RM is the tallest member of BTS

There are seven members of the award-winning K-pop group BTS. Out of those seven, the tallest is one of the rappers, RM, (real name Kim Namjoon.) According to K Profiles, RM is 5 feet 11 inches tall.Ā 

Not only is RM the tallest member of BTS, but heā€™s also the leader. Because heā€™s fluent in English, this idol often translates for the rest of the members, sometimes answering questions on behalf of the other performers.Ā

J-Hope and V are almost the same height

A few other BTS members are just a little bit shorter than RM. Although these two performers have very different roles in this K-pop group, J-Hope and V are both on the taller side, when it comes to the BTS members.Ā 

According to K Profiles, J-Hope and V are basically the same height, coming in at 5 feet, 10 inches. These members are still a few months apart in terms of their age. V and Jimin were both born in 1995, which makes sense for their subunit name, ā€œ95s,ā€ established after their collaboration on ā€œFriends.ā€Ā 

J-Hope is one year older, being born in 1994. While both J-Hope and V dance as members of this group, J-Hope is a rapper in BTS who sometimes releases solo music. (That includes the mixtape, Hope World, and the single ā€œChicken Noodle Soup.ā€)Ā 

V is a singer, who released the solo song ā€œWinter Bear,ā€ performed entirely in English. Jin, a singer and the oldest member of the K-pop group, is also pretty close in height to these two idols. The same website reports that Kim Seokjin is about 5 feet and 10 and a half inches tall.Ā

Who is the shortest BTS member?

Heā€™s a talented singer and dancer, breaking Spotify records with songs like ā€œSerendipityā€ and ā€œFilter.ā€ At only 5 feet 8 inches tall, though, Jimin is the shortest member of BTS. In fact, for one video, Jimin shared a secret behind the groupā€™s performance of ā€œDionysus.ā€Ā 

For this song, the idols start off sitting behind a table. To make it look as though Jimin is a similar height to the other members of BTS, he sits on his leg.Ā Ā 

Fans can see these K-pop idols in person, along the now-postponed Map of the Soul tour. Music by BTS, including the single ā€œStay Goldā€ and Map of the Soul: 7, is available for streaming on platforms like Spotify and Apple Music.
