With his picture going viral, the 22-year-old Kapuso actor expressed "heartfelt gratitude" to everyone who showed love and support.

"It was unexpected! To be compared with an icon like Taehyung is such an honor that is why my heart is full until now," he noted. 

"To my Rurunatics family, thank you for making me feel loved and valued always. You never fail to make me smile all the time. To all ARMYs who showed support worldwide, thank you so much. I am with you as we celebrate love and success for BTS."
