@Jiroh Salomga
Jennie is around 161cm compared to 5’5.25 listed Lisa.
Yujin appears 1cm shorter than Wonyoung and gives a 170cm impression, probably a height twin to Jimin and Suga.
Wonyoung 170-171
Yujin 169-170
Liz 166-167
Rei 165-166
Leeseo 162-163 (is only 15)
Gaeul 160-161

@jiroh,
Wonyoung is probably 170-171
Yujin got measured at 168.5 at 2018 when she was around 15 which is when most girls reach their final height. It is very likely that she had already stopped growing. I'd think 5'6.5 is pretty reasonable.
Wonyoung does look around 170 next to 178 range sunghoon.
Meanwhile Yujin looks a bit shorter
Jiroh Salonga said on 7/May/22
@zzY
If Wonyoung is 5'7, how tall are the other members of IVE since Yujin is supposedly half an inch more than that but Wonyoung still looks taller?
Jiroh Salonga said on 7/May/22
What do you think of this video

claiming that Jennie is shorter than what she is billed at?
She is said to be 163 cm, a cm taller than Jisoo but there's a possibility that she's actually 157-160 cm in range.
bgh said on 7/May/22
@nz
Sunghoon got measured at 177 at 16 and looks 178-179 next to Wonyoung, that is where I got my calculations. Jungwon does look more than 2cm shorter than Jay, who is of similar height to Beomgyu. Jay is a lot shorter than HueningKai too.

@nz, I'd say Wonyoung could be flat 5'7 and Jungwon about the same height as her, about 169-170cm barefoot for both
bgh said on 7/May/22
I think Taehyun grew since that BigHit picture. He looks very close to Beomgyu’s height nowadays. I think he is definitely in the 5’8 range, and would appear the same height as Jungkook.
Also, seems like Taehyung and Jin had thicker insoles than Yeonjun in that picture, maybe that’s why Yeonjun appeared in the 5’9 range. I think he is a weak 5’10.
bgh said on 7/May/22
@leafy
Where did Sungchan claim 182cm? He said he was a bit taller than Lucas who also claimed 182cm, so if SM was logic, his claim would have been 183-184cm. Also, he was 19 so he couldn’t have grown 2-3cm in a year.
Either way, he looks very close to Johnny’s height and sometimes even edge him, so 182-183 might be more accurate.
nz said on 7/May/22
@bgh
if jungwon is 5'6 range, how tall is wonyoung?
Click Here
The shoes give jungwon a 2-3 inch advantage. Take out an inch for wonyoung's shoes (they have a tiny heel in the end)
and wonyoung looks about 2 inches shorter than jungwon.
So by this calculation, wonyoung is probably 5'6' range as well. Imo, jungwon is probably wearing additional insoles because I think she's a strong 5'7
Jungwon is taller than "5'6" karina by half a head
Click Here. Shoes should be similar, Karina looks like she's wearing heels

@bgh
He was listed as 182cm around debut:
Click Here. Idk if he actually claimed that himself besides saying he was taller than Lucas tho. Later, he was listed at 185cm. In this clip, he claims 184.8 (1:36) and is measured on camera at 187.7cm (5:04), so it seems his claim was pretty accurate (tho idk what time of day he was measured at). As for Johnny, yes, Sungchan edges him out by a cm or two:
Click Here and
Click Here. Given Sungchan's measurement, I'd peg Johnny at somewhere between 183cm and 184cm. They're def close in height tho.
Malcolm Oliver said on 6/May/22
@nz
Almost 5’8 makes sense. My 174 claim was the absolute highest I’d give her, but Taehyung and Jungkook would still edge her out. Very tall for her age and where she’s from though, 5’8 range is already 97th percentile according to height standard deviation (if we have 5’2 at the 50th):

@Malcolm Oliver, if you look at the Hanlim school shoots, Yunjin looks 2-3 cm taller than tzuyu and 5-6 cm over yuna in flat shoes so 172 is probably accurate

@Abbie
The consensus on here has Psy at 170 and even his profile lists him at such. I think there’s no reason to think Suga is any more than this too. A weak, at most on the dot, 5’7 in the same range as Jimin (who’s under it).
zzY said on 6/May/22
hey Rob, do you think 174cm flat is accurate for a barefoot Jungkook?
Malcolm Oliver said on 6/May/22
@Jiroh Salonga @nz
Here is what their profiles bill them at:
Yunjin is 172 cm (5'8")
Kazuha is 170 cm (5'7")
Garam is 170 cm (5’7")
I’m not sure if you were looking at outdated info @Jiroh but it seems that Yunjin is the tallest. So that would mean @nz meant it was her that would be near JK/V’s height, Kazuya/Garam near Jimin/Suga’s height. I can see Yunjin at the most 174, she may reach a similar height to someone like Jung HoYeon.
This is definitely one of the taller girl groups though, their height average is 167.67.. an even 5’6. This just proves the younger generation keeps raising the height average, all members are above average-tall compared to most Korean women.
Abbie said on 6/May/22
Sorry, back to my favourite subject for a minute. Psy and Suga - given that Psy is officially 171cms and they're both wearing similar soles, is Suga taller than we think?

@bgh could be insoles in socks, but I could honestly see Lucas at 5'11.5 and sungchan at 6'1. Jisung is probably 178/179 as it doesn't look like he tiptoed that much although sock insoles are definitely a possibility.
Also leserrafim's yunjin is definetely 170+, maybe even 172 range. Assuming the reference point stayed constant, she looks taller than tzuyu and much taller than yuna. I think they'd keep her away from the shorter bts and txt members

@Heir of Darkness
Sungchan said somewhere that he is a bit shorter than Johnny who is a legit 6 footer and he is taller than Lucas who is 5’11 at max. 181-182 sounds more accurate for him.
Jisung got measured at 179-180 when he looks around similar range to Jaehyun who is a 5’9 flat. Jungwoo looks 177-178 when standing next to Lucas. Jungwoo looks taller than Jisung.

I wonder how tall leserrafim is. According to their billed heights, kazuha is similar to V,jungkook, and, beomgyu, and taehyun while eunchae is similar to jhope. Yunjin and garam are similar to jimin and suga. Might need to see them interact with TXT/BTS first before we can tell.
That being said Yunjin did look taller than wonyoung in pd48 so they might actually be accurate
Jiroh Salonga said on 4/May/22
What's your guesses on the newly debuted group, Le Sserafim.
One of the members, Kazuha, is reported to 5'9" so that makes her the tallest active female idol.
Malcolm Oliver said on 3/May/22
I would question the footwear first, we never know if one of them has an advantage/disadvantage when it comes to shoes. And even then, a near 5’9.5 guy isn’t going to look too far off from 5’11. It’s all a matter of perspective.

People at 5’10 can get away with proportions too. It’s not exclusive to 5’11-6’+. Plus TOP has looked shorter than 5’11 guys on many occasions. I’ve mentioned the comparison with the confirmed 180cm athlete earlier in the comments, but here’s a more noteworthy case:
Click Here
(here with 5’11 Lee Jung-jae)
Looks 5’10.5 there, but that’s just assuming equal footwear. Would be shorter than Namjoon if they were to compare heights (but it’s not a noticeable difference).

leafy said on 17/Apr/22
@Hear of Darkness Minhee was measured on air back in 2020 at 185cm so I'd say he's that minimum (assuming he hasn't grown at all):
Click Here (timestamp 6:14). However, I do suspect that he's probably taller than that now given he grew 3cm between 2019 and 2020 (182 to 185) so he does have a track record of being a late grower. I think one of the other members (Jungmo) also recently wrote him a message asking him to stop growing, implying that he has grown since 2020 and may even be still gaining some height. He is only 19 so it's definitely not out of the question. However, 190cm kind of seems like a stretch to me. He doesn't seem a full foot taller than Kep1er's Chaehyun who's listed at 5'3, though I can't see her footwear and it's possible her platform is higher than his:
Click Here. I'd guess more in the 186-188cm range for him.
As for Rowoon, he released his weight and bmi recently and fans used it to infer his height was around 190cm so I think his 190.5cm claim is pretty accurate:
Click Here
Heir of Darkness said on 17/Apr/22
What do you guys think of SF9's Rowoon and CRAVITY's Minhee?
Rowoon I think is quite modest about his height claims. In the past, he used to claim to be 189 cm tall, but he says he's actually 190.5 cm, which seems believable. However, fans think he's way taller than that lol.
As for Minhee, back in his Produce X 101 days (he was 16 by then), he was listed at 182 cm. However, when we debuted in X1, he was listed at 185 cm. Now at CRAVITY, I believe he's still listed at 185 cm. However, fans think he's over 190 cm, and quite recently, he claimed to be that tall already. What do you guys think?
nz said on 15/Apr/22
for what its worth, it would be interesting to see Yuna, Tzuyu, Bae, Sullyoon, and Jeongyeon to stand together.
Tzuyu should be a solid 170 cm, while Bae and Sullyoon both look the respective 171, 167-168 that they claimed. Yuna's 169 is very sketch as well as Jeongyeon's 169.
nz said on 15/Apr/22
@Heir,
tbh I'm not too familiar with seventeen haha. I knew he was always listed at 6'2 which is around 188 which is more or less accurate. I could see 186-187 honestly.
@Guessor,
That does look over 5 cm but under 10 cm. I think her 169 measurement was either in the morning or with shoes. There's a video of ryujin, Chae, and Yeji comparing heights and they are more or less the same give or take 1-2 cm. I always thought chae was the tallest of the 3 and yuna has 2-3 cm on her. Afaik Dahyun claims she is 161 now, although that could be a morning measurement.
Here is 173 ilhoon with yuna
Click Here
and in the idol room episode, yuna actually had the shoe advantage, so 168 might be the max. Maybe 166-168 is more accurate?
Heir of Darkness said on 15/Apr/22

Yuna from ITZY

Mingyu from Seventeen
Johnny from NCT

V is 175-176, nothing more. He’s always looking taller now because his insane footwear lifts to maintain his status as the group visual, often wearing more clunkier shoes than other members.

Anyone willing to take a guess on BLACKPINK? I know Lisa has her own page, but this page seems to get more traffic, probably the most amongst all celebrities on this site (they are BTS after all). I would say of the 4:
Jisoo 160-162 cm
Jennie 161-163 cm
Lisa 164.5-166.5 or 165-167 cm
Rosé 166.5-168.5 cm

~3 inch height difference between Rosé and Jisoo.
The official heights listed on their profiles are the max end of their range (so the highest they measure, either morning height or height in shoes):

*Bonus: Another idol who a lot of people speculate height on is Tzuyu.. I would point to that 169-172 range (

@Lay
Jackson is definitely 5’7, but if I were to be pinpoint a range, somewhere greater than 170 and less than 172. He would barely edge out Jimin or Suga in my opinion, but doesn’t reach any of the 5’8 members or beyond. For being the shortest member of his group, he has proportions to make up for it.

@leafy, wow, thanks for the information about Sunghoon being a figure skater. Definitely around 177 cm minimum on his height but not more than 180. He might've grown a couple centimeter or may be 1 cm since. As you know, they add 1 - 3 cm to idols height, and sometimes 5 cm max.
Anyway, thanks, Rob, for answering my question! It's amazing how you've maintained your height through the years. I hope when I reach your age, I still have the same height as what I have right now.
Hopefully, other members of BTS will have their own profiles too. Thanks again!
leafy said on 3/Mar/22
@KonoDioDa
Sunghoon has 177cm on his figure skating profile from before he was an idol which I assume is an accurate measurement (probably taken by a medical examiner). Given he was probably in his mid to late teens when that measurement was taken I'd say he's 177cm minimum. Could be more like 178-9cm now, 181 seems like a stretch, but below 177cm wouldn't really make much sense.
KonoDioDa said on 3/Mar/22
@7272, based on the video, if Jinyoung is really 178, then it looks like BTS V (Taehyung) is on the 5'9" range. But we should also consider what shoes are they wearing during the show and if they are wearing insoles or not. Nonetheless, he [BTS V] isn't more than 176 cm.
It has a very very slim chance to impossible for him to grow from 175 to 179 at the age of almost 22 years old in a span of 4 and a half years.
By the way, Rob, hope you're doing well, I have a question. During your early 20's, what was your peak height? I'm just curious. Thanks a lot!

to answer your question, it looks like Sunghoon also wear insoles. If you'll look closely at 0:32,
Click Here, beside wearing a chunky shoes, I noticed that his ankle part is slightly forward (I know this because I use lifts on low cut shoes as well.), and probably the same height as him.
Also his height is not consistent. If you're going to google it up, his[Sunghoon] is 1.77 m unlike his listing on kprofiles, which is unbelievable 1.81 m.
Click Here , on 0:38 mark, that's a sneak peak of enhypen's height, although their shoes vary and if they wear insole or not. Ni-ki is their tallest member with his height differing from 1.80,1.81, and 1.83, from a far, Sunghoon looks like a weak 5'10" guy.
If you're going to ask me the smallest members of Enha, Jungwon and Jake, doesn't look like 5'9" at all, Heeseung is not 6" as well (based on kprofiles).

If taehyun is really only 5'8 then it looks like enhypens Sunghoon is really just 5'9 assuming he didn't grow taller.

To answer your question, my estimate is Jungkook is taller than Taehyun (who looks like a 173 guy) by a cm, he [Jungkook] looks like a 174 guy nothing more than that.
Like what I have said before, the only height which are not questionable is HueningKai or Soobin on their company family photo. The rest have additional 1-3 cm or 5 max in their claimed heights. RM on the other hand is tilting his head upwards which gives him additional height.
Click Here , most of them are wearing insoles and outsoles, so there's no question why their heights are fluctuating

How tall is wonyoung? She claimed 169 when she was 14 when most girls are almost at their final height and now she's 173.
She looked near 170 next to kep1er's xiaoting who should be an accurate 168.

He could measure near that
KonoDioDa said on 18/Feb/22
My estimate on RM is a legit 180 out of the bed and he drops to 178.5 at night. When you look at the shoot of BTS, TXT, and Lee Hyun, the only people that height are not questionable Huening Kai and Soobin (both from TXT). The rest of them are inconsistent. Even RM looked like a weak 5'11. If you look at their HYBE family shoot.
nz said on 18/Feb/22
Also Jang wonyoung could be a good shoutout. She claims 173 now, which is a huge jump from her claimed height of 169 cm in 2018 when she was about 13. Thus she really couldn't have grown that much since most girls stop growing around that time.

Now that we are talking about more idols, I do want to know how tall the Enhypen members are. Specifically, Sunghoon (Claims 181 cm) and Jay (kpop profile is 180 cm but I heard he claims he is 175 cm now). Heesung was listed as 178 cm during I-land, but now he's at 183 cm because he started being comparable to K on the later episodes. But, he doesn't seem 183 cm after I-land, and that inflation kind of inflated all the other member's height too.
Kinda shocked Yeonjun is only ~5'9 changes since the TXT members do seem taller when they are seen with other idol groups. Also, Hyunjin being ~175 cm is a big surprise tbh since Stray Kids is already seen as one of the shorter boy groups.

Yeah, the one from with a baseball player I think. However, TOP from 2098-2008 definitely was shorter, he was like 5’8 with Yoo Jae Suk, and now when you see him in show with Yoo Jar Suk he definitely is taller.
Ppl say he’s 5’10, but I’m betting more on a 179 measurement because he looked that with 5’8 Michael Trevino. But he also just looks really tall somehowz
Malcolm Oliver said on 13/Feb/22
@Psuedo
I think TOP gets the advantage of being the tallest in his group amongst other shorter members. Though I’ve read somewhere that he was shorter than a 180cm confirmed celebrity somewhere. Can’t seem to find the source though. If I were to bet on it, he’s 5’9-5’10, maybe 5’10.
Psuedo said on 13/Feb/22
One of the biggest K-pop mysteries is BIGBANG. Personally, I want to know TOP’s height because he always looks so tall, even with/without shorter members. Daesung is def 5’8, GD 5,6 range, Taeyang 5,3, TOP some people claim 5’10 but looks more like 179-180 because of proportions. Not sure tho
Soo said on 12/Feb/22
@Malcolm Oliver
@chad michaels
I agree with both of you in that I believe he’s in the 5’9 range. My guess is about 175-176 cm. In the picture you sent, he’s basically the same height with V. Both V and Jaehyun always wear insoles to increase as they are visuals for their groups. Jung Kook is somewhere in the 5’8 range so it makes sense that both V and Jaehyun are about an inch taller.
Also, the top of Rosé’s head is at the middle of his forehead in both pictures. So when using the MrInitialMan height comparison website, I put Rosé height in at 168 cm. For the top of that figure to be in the mid forehead zone, Jaehyun’s figure has to be about 175 cm.
Also, here’s a pic of him with NCT 127.
Click Here. Johnny (the one on the far left) is listed at 6’0” and it is a very accurate listing, some people even think he could be taller than that. Based on that picture of them both shoeless (Johnny isn’t standing completely straight because his head is tilted), and this one
Click Here , I believe Jaehyun is definitely in the 5’9” range.
Overall he has great proportions and it allows him pull off looking like a real 180 cm person at times!
Click Here
Malcolm Oliver said on 10/Feb/22
Final say, Jaehyun is 100% taller than Jungkook who’s 5’8 range, so 175-176 conservatively. But honestly more like 177-178 and can pull off 179-180 with solid footwear and proportions (hence why they’re listed as such). Kai’s the same case. Both comparable to Chalamet.
Malcolm Oliver said on 10/Feb/22
@Soo
@chad michaels
I’ve also looked into the case of Jaehyun because his height seems all over the place. I’m certain he’s in the 5’9-5’10 range, but would give him 5’10 for the benefit of the doubt. He looked taller next to Jungkook:
Click Here
(though the footwear is unknown of both)
But he tends to wear some thick shoes here and there. He has similar proportions to Jin, so I think that 175-178 range is safe. He looks about that height next to Rosé, but probably measures near 180 if he’s wearing thick shoes or lifts.
I think Jaehyun is the same height as another idol whose height is often speculated: Kai. They both seem taller than Jungkook, but slightly shorter than RM.

@Soo
I always thought he was in the 5’9 range.

Hey Rob, there is currently a Kpop idol that a ton of Kpop fans are curious about what his true height is. Jaehyun (from NCT) listed at 180 cm and Rosé (from BLACKPINK) is listed at 168 cm. Based on comparing her height to Lisa’s(from BLACKPINK), it is very likely she is a solid 168 cm. So then how tall do you think Jaehyun is? In those photos they practically have equal footwear and it doesn’t seem like Rosé is getting the camera advantage. The first two photos in the link I posted below shows 2 separate occasions when they were photographed together, which sparked curiosity of Jaehyun’s real height.

what i dont get is how they go on tv shows and state their exact heights as if they are telling the truth. jimin said 173.6 cm and v said 179cm. wtf? that is so different from the visual estimates here (jimin 170, v 176), which are appearing more plausible to me when i see them next to james corden, coldplay and in public. but how the can they add a few cm to their height and say it with a straight face on tv? ofc people are going to verify it and find out that they are adding on cm. and jimin said his height to the exact millimetre, whats the use in that if the height is an exaggerated number anyway??

V/Taehyung 175cm / ~175.3 (174.5/6-176)
Jin 175.9 or 176.3cm / ~176 (175.9-177)
RM 179.7cm / ~180 (179.1-180.3)
I am very confident this is their exact heights, if not very close.

Click Here Hyunjin of Stray Kids(Far Right) is 5’10.5” but he struggles to look 5’9 with BTS…
Malcolm Oliver said on 31/Jan/22
I know my final verdict had already been posted, but the more I look at it, the more I feel like I underestimated Jimin’s height. They are obviously the shortest amongst the 7, but Jimin’s low is probably 168.9 (I had him around this height on average). I could see him most comfortably at 169.5cm (5’6.75). The highest I’d have him at would be 5’7, but he barely makes that mark in the morning or on a good day.
If we go by this metric, Suga would fall into 170 territory and more times than not, can pass for 5’7 and change. That would also explain why they’re not too far off from the 5’8-5’9 members (as I feel like with my earlier estimates for them there should be a noticeable height difference between them and those 2, but it’s only ever seemed around 1-2 inch difference.
Jimin 169.5cm (168.9-170.2)
Suga 170.2cm (169.5-171)
My last comment did not address this, but this time around, getting their exact heights would contribute more to accuracy before rounding up. In that case, I personally see J-Hope exactly at 172.5cm (as some others have already guessed too); borderline 5’8. Taehyung is borderline 5’9. Jungkook is in between them. Jin is the closest one to 5’10 out of them.
J-Hope 172.5 / ~172.7 (172-173)
Jungkook 173.7 / ~173.5-174cm (172.7-174)
V 175 / ~175.3cm (174.5-176)
Jin 175.9 or 176.3 / ~176cm (175.9-177)
RM as I’ve mentioned is 4 inches taller than Jimin, so a 10cm height difference between the two would make him 5’10.75 (169.5 + 10.16 = ~179.7). Almost 5’11.
RM 179.7cm / ~180cm (179.1-180.3)
anonymous k said on 30/Jan/22
I would always be cautious with k idol and kdrama actor heights, especially when trying to go by comparison. They are known to be exaggerated and insoles are extremely popular among them.

Bts fan said on 5/Jan/22
Jungkook is honestly a typical 174cm guy if not more...
Malcolm Oliver said on 5/Jan/22
@chad michaels
Fans have always inflated celebrity heights ever since long ago, a lot of it is really just attributed to status/presence and not actually seeing them in person to compare (for the most part). How one carries themselves and being well-proportioned can go a long ways. I think Jungkook, along with many of BTS, as you’ve mentioned have benefited from these things.
That being said, I will give a final verdict on all the members.
Jimin 168-170cm
Suga 169-171cm
These two are comparable in height, but they are barely 5’7, dip under it throughout the day. I have Jimin at ~169cm (5’6.5) and Suga barely edges him out.
J-Hope 172-174cm
Jungkook 173-175cm
V 174-176cm
Jin 175-177cm
These four range in 5’8-5’9 territory. J-Hope maintains 5’8, probably will measure 172cm at the lowest or in the evening. The thing with these guys is that they have always seemed relatively close in height, so I think these ranges do justice to where their average stands (i.e, Jungkook 173-175cm would average to 174cm). So that would put V around 175cm (flat 5’9 who can look taller because of lifts, same as Jungkook) and Jin around 176cm. Jin being the second tallest makes sense, he’s always looked 5’9+, but can appear 5’10 due to proportions.
RM 178-180cm or 179-181cm
And alas, the tallest member I have around these two ranges. RM has always looked 4 inches taller than Jimin, so at least a 10cm difference between the two. He is for sure taller than 5’10, so I can see him both at 179 or 180cm. The former would be in line with the average guess, but the latter would be in line with the listing. I think somewhere in the middle would be reasonable, but 5’10.5 or 5’11 would not be out of the question.
Psuedo said on 4/Jan/22

Considering that they all have sketchy shoe advantage in these pics, it’s clear that none of them are their listed heights besides RM. Jimin is a decent 5’7 could even dip below a little at his worst I cannot be convinced otherwise, and that twitter post with his measurement is absolutely fake just look at him next to the 5’10 tennis player. Suga same height. Jin is a strong 5’9, definitely 5’10 in the morning. He claimed in his livestream he was 178.3 cm, I thought he was a solid 5’10 because of his good proportions but seeing him next to a 5’11 actor definitely puts him at a 176.3 position. Now V is a complicated one, he loves his insoles and visual status, but with all the evidence he’s a flat 5’9. J-Hope 5’8, jungkook is 5’8 got towered by Megan thee stallion, RM is 179.5-180cm. Overall I think these guys deserve a listing as their heights are pretty controversial and would be for food discussion
Also Big Rob, BTS members have visited CelebHeights.com, as in one of their livestreams they were talking about how tall Megan Thee Stallion was and how they googled her height and mentioned it as specifically 176.5cm, which celenheights has the only measurement for. Thought it was pretty funny

Malcolm Oliver said on 11/Dec/21
My previous comment didn’t address the highest I’d give BTS in terms of height. It’s probably fair to say that just adding 1cm to their ranges would be most appropriate. So it’d up end looking like this:
Jimin 170-171cm
Suga 171-172 cm
J-Hope 173-174cm
Jungkook 174-175cm
V 175-176cm
Jin 176-177cm
RM 179-180cm
Though I personally seeing the heights given in my previous comment as being more closer to what they are, ^this too would be in line with RM’s 5’11 listing.

Jin 175.9 cm (always appeared to be about 4 cm shorter than rm)
Rm 180.3 cm
I cant figure out j hopes height tbh cuz i dont understand the 1.77m constant claim, ( i guess he wanted to add 2 inches to his height to be 5ft10, but he was missing about only 1cm to make that happen idk) and i think jungkook might be a little bit taller than james corden, they are honestly overall not as short as i expected them to be.
Truth2077 said on 28/Nov/21
Rob when they performed black swan live barefoot in the james corden show, james corden did hug jungkook at the end, if u can figure out whos taller or are they the same height then we might be able to figure out the real heights of jungkook and j hope
Editor Rob
I am not so about that
Jerry183 said on 28/Nov/21
After seeing a recent perfomamce of bts and coldplay in the AMAs, I'm 100% sure that RM is no more than 5'10, Chris Martin towers over them and you can see that bts members wear big shoes and insoles or shoes/boots that add a couple of inches to their height,so i believe that the range of height in bts should be between 5'5/6 to 5'10.
Truth2077 said on 26/Nov/21
Rob do u think james corden might be the same height as jungkook, and if not, who do u think might be taller ?
Editor Rob
in their video they could look pretty close

I would be surprised if barefoot he was that tall.
Truth2077 said on 24/Nov/21
Bts's heights next to james corden performing very recently in street of L.A.
As a bts fan, i really hope im wrong :
Jimin 168.9 cm
Suga 169.5 cm
Jungkook 172.7 cm
J hope 171.2 cm
V 175.3 cm
Jin 175.9 cm
Rm 180.3 cm
Now if james corden is truly 173.4cm then i believe that there is no way m wrong about any single member
(Pls i didnt conclude their real heights from what i wrote about bts height's timeline, the timline's idea came afterwards just to comfirm)
I think taking their height's timeline into consideration to spot every member's real height eventually is really important and helpful
The heights they claimed day one
Jimin 1.73m (173.6cm)
Suga 1.74m
J hope 1.77m
Jungkook 1.78m (he only cared about hitting 5ft10 at first)
Rm 1.81m
Jin 1.79m
V 1.78m
With time everything stayed the same only jimins height changed to 1.74m
Then they did the first big change :
Jimin became 1.75m
Suga 1.76m
J hope 1.77m
Jungkook 1.79m
Rm 1.81m
V 1.79m
Jin 1.79m
With time they changed it to :
Jimin 1.74m
Suga 1.74m
J hope 1.77m
Jungkook 1.78m (this is literally them realizing that jungkook is clearly shorter than v and jin)
V 1.79m
Jin 1.79m
Rm 1.81m
And now :
Jimin 1.74m
Suga 1.74m
J hope 1.77m
Jungkook 1.79m
V 1.79m
Jin 1.79m
1.81m
I honestly think all the members not i think but i know for a fact, all the members under 1.75m already tried to add 6cm to their heights and notice robb, j hope's claimed height never changed cuz he simply cannot go any further, jungkook was all about hitting 5ft10 at first, then started to add 6cm and now hes listed 1.79m even tho jin is clearly taller than him, i think the only reason why V went from 1.78m to 1.79m is because hes simply not shorter than jungkook
So again :
Jimin 168.9 cm
Suga 169.5 cm
Jungkook 172.7 cm
J hope 171.2 cm (this guy looked barely 1 cm taller than james corden with heels on)
V 175.3 cm
Jin 175.9 cm
Rm 180.3 cm
Like i said if james corden is truly 173.4cm then he def exposed them very very badly
Psuedo said on 23/Nov/21
V has got to be barely scraping 5'9, probably 5'8. Look at this photo, he's right next to Will Champion who's arguably 5'11-6'0 who's wearing flat converse, V with massive boots barely looking still looks nowhere near 5'10. Then we have Guy Berryman in the middle who everyone agrees is in that weak 5'9 range in converse, looking much taller than most BTS members.
I've seen what solid 175cm, even 178cm look like next to classic 180cm people IRL, the heights are extremely close. RM at the maximum is 180cm as he claimed himself, and the differences I see in photos between him and the other BTS members make it very hard for me to believe that any of them are above 176cm except for maybe Jin who I believe is a solid 176. V looks to be not a hair higher than 5'9, even 5'8 1/2 is arguable. Jimin & Suga are weak 5'7, J-Hope Jungkook in that decent 5'8 range.

JYPI said on 22/Nov/21
Hey Rob, BTS was at the AMAs and this pic was taken of them where they seem to have similar chunkiness in footwear. Since RM is 180 cm, where does this put Jin (4th from the left) and V (wearing red bandana, 5th from the left)? V typically wears insoles but Jin does not as I’ve been a fan for years and have never noticed Jin wearing insoles. How tall do you think Jin and V are compared to RM’s 180 cm? I’m always unsure about these two’s heights.

Editor Rob
5ft 9.5 and 7.5 maybe
Truth2077 said on 22/Nov/21
Jin doesnt really suffer from a problem of height or anything, hes really adding 3 cm like any other celebrity, its so obvious, he was always listed as 1.79m from day one, guessing jin's height is the easiest thing ever since he always looked a solid 1.76m next to rm, the short ones are normally hard to guess, anyone whos under 1.75m in bts is clearly not that satisfied except one of the most careless and honest members who's suga, who was always listed as 1.74m from day one and never looked more or less than 1.71m
Rob do u think jin and sugas height are the easiest to guess after rm?
[I would never guess jimin to be less than 1.70m, hes not even short compared to almost all members, and people who think that jimin is taller than suga are clearly not bts fans from day one, or maybe they somehow believe that people can grow after being 22 years old, jimin is probably a solid 1.70m (170.5cm is very very possible)]
Editor Rob
They vary quite a lot in photos
rajsk said on 20/Nov/21
Jimin and Suga look 170cm for the most part. J-Hope and Jungkook look 173cm and 174cm respectively. V is a lot trickier to identify, sometimes he can look 174cm, other times he can appear as tall as 177cm. However I believe him to be 175-176cm, nothing less and nothing more. Jin appears 177cm and RM is indeed 180cm.
Malcolm Oliver said on 15/Nov/21
The shortest 2 are a weak 5’7, can fall below it.
Jimin 169-170 cm
Suga 170-171 cm
The next members are near or in the 5’8-5’9 range.
J-Hope 172-173 cm
Jungkook 173-174 cm
V 174-175 cm
Jin 175-176 cm
RM’s listing I feel oversells his height by a half inch; he seems to fall in between 178-180 cm. Average guess is close: 5’10.5.
Truth2077 said on 1/Nov/21
Jimin 1.7m
Suga 1.71m

Rob, you need to watch this video at the start and 5:40 mark. Everyone's looking up to her.
She's listed as 5'9 1/2 here, wearing pretty standard heels. She's towering over anyone while bending, I have no doubt she's taller than Jungkook even if she was barefoot at that moment at 5:40.
I doubt anybody in BTS is even over 178 besides RM.

I'd give V a weak 5'9, probably 5'8 1/2 at his low. Had some boots here while RM had standard shoes, still looks a solid 2 inches shorter despite having footwear advantage. If RM can be argued for the 179.7-180 range, V is definitely in that 174-175 range. Jimin is a legit 5'6.75, I cannot be convinced otherwise.

@Rob
Korean President Moon Jae-in has met the group on Sept 14 at the Blue House. Based on some pictures, it seems like the the shorter members of the group (Suga and Jimin) has pretty significant height advantage over the Korean President. However, I am still not convinced that the members aren't wearing insoles.
Click Here
Based on height comparison between RM (For measurement sake, I'm listing him as 180cm)and Moon Jae-in. Moon does not look his listed height of 172cm. He seems to be in that 167-169 range.Then again, RM eye level is higher compared to the other members. Moon is seen to be taller than Kim Jong-un with less than than an inch of height. It seems like he has lost some height possibly due to aging. Based on that photo, what would you list RM and Moon down as?
It baffles me how there's noticable height gap between RM and the members if they're in the 5'10 range as their listed height when looking at photos. 1-2cm height difference should't be very noticeable.
What's your take on this, Rob?
Editor Rob
I doubt they are all on the same plane, from looking at the photo I'd place RM slightly behind some of the other members there...whether this has knocked 1cm from RM's height is harder to tell.
Psuedo said on 15/Sep/21
Here’s a good height comparison with around 5’7 South Korean President.
Click Here
The only problem is that basically everybody but RM, J-Hope, and maybe Jin wore some extra clunky shoes and what looks to be shoe lifts.
Click Here
RM definitely in that weak 5’11 range, J-Hope is definitely 5”8 max. Jungkook looks 5’8 even with that major shoe advantage, Suga and Jimin look 5’7 range even with the big shoes. Can’t even say for V because he has some massive boots.
Abbie said on 15/Sep/21
This is a single file line up of the guys with Moon Jae-in. Moon is listed as 1.72m, RM is on his left, Jin on his right. Suga is to the left of RM. All the men were wearing minimally heeled dress shoes except V (Far left) and Jimin (2nd from far right) who wore a chunky sole, about 1.5"? Interestingly Suga was wearing a very low heel and, standing straight for once, was slightly taller than Moon. I'd bring V and Jimin down half an inch, Jimin is shoulder to shoulder with JK here and he wouldn't be in bare feet, to make the height range accurate.

Hey Rob, a new photo has been taken of BTS with Coldplay’s Chris Martin which you listed at 6’1 1/4”. Considering how chunky Chris’s shoes are, does this mean that Jin and V are in that 5’10” range? I’m really confused as to how they can look like 5’8-5’9 at times though. Also where would this put RM? He looks significantly taller than Chris and his shoes are a typical low cut sneaker compared to Chris’s chunky shoe.
Editor Rob
Chris might be the furthest away and with worse posture, so it's hard to tell.

Hey Rob,

@uglybeta
Jimin wears massive insoles, and the K-Pop industry is basically innovating height boosters in every way. Look at this one creative method.
Click Here (very creative)
Click Here (Jimin's insole)
Now, we have to look for equal footwear. For the sake of Jimin's argument, I will consider RM 5'11. If you look at these pictures, Jimin is struggling to look 5'8
Click Here (equal footwear, 4 inch difference)
Click Here (shoe/potential insole, around 3 inch difference)
Click Here (w/Robin Roberts, no way he's looking 5'8)
There are more pictures below in the comments here where in the VLive where he's looking 5'7. It's a running joke in BTS that Jimin is really short where he is made fun of by other members, which wouldn't make sense if he's a legit 5'8, when some other members are actually 5'8. He's very aware of his height, so 5'6.75-5'7 range is the only rational possibility. I've also seen some accounts of people saying that they've seen Jimin IRL, and he barely looks 5'7. (Take with a grain of salt). In the Black Swan behind the scenes, even if I said Jin is a flat 5'10, Jimin looks 5'7 barefoot next to him.
Alright, BTS members have such varied heights it's very hard to tell. I used to think maybe they're actually legitimate 5'10s, because sometimes they look that with RM who can be argued for 5'11. But the more I see them, their shoes, and with James Corden I feel that I think it's just RM who is shorter. He's imo 5'10 5/8, maybe 179.7cm. Cannot see 5'11 because of how close the other members get who are definitely not 5'10. Also, he is visibly shorter than Taylor Swift in heels, same with Charlie Puth, barely looked 2 inches taller than 5'8 James Cordon. In the GMA interview above, he looked 2 inches taller than 5'9 Robin Roberts with a decent shoe advantage, making him a bit under 5'11.
Now, V & Jin. Jin I can see a clear cut 176. Always looks average height, good proportions. He looked exactly 1 inch taller than Michael Keaton. V, on the other hand is super tricky. Idk how he does it, but he looks sometimes 1 inch shorter than RM, to 3 inches shorter, to 1 inch taller, it's crazy. In Black Swan, near the end with James Cordon, he's looking shorter than James Cordon. Although while barefoot, I would assume if he's 5'9 he shouldn't be visually shorter. Also, in the carpool where they dance at the end, V has shoe advantage (thick heel) over James, and they still look the same height, maybe V one inch taller. In their Flinch, the images I posted in the comments below, he looks 5'8.75 with James Cordon. With Charlie Puth 5'10, he's looking sub 5'9. Now, in the Black Swan behind the scenes where they're barefoot, V is the same height as Jin. Jin is prob 1cm taller than him though.

Click Here (at 3:00, Jin/V Equal Height) (7:05 Jin looks taller than V/RM in equal sandals? Very puzzling idk how thats possible....)

J-Hope is legit 172-173, in the carpool vid with Corden he looked that. Jungkook, same thing. Suga is 5'6.75-5'7, has terrible posture.
Now, I will say that these guesses may not be accurate. They all wear so many different shoes/insoles their height always changes. Look at the SNL, RM looks 6'1. V (wearing clunky black shoes) looks 5'11 next to Keaton. Jin looks 5'10. It's all super wacky. Then you see them next to James Corden, they're looking shorter. It's all over the place. Then there's this picture where equal footwear, jungkook looks 5'7 and Jimin looks 5'9.
Click Here (equal footwear)
Click Here (SNL)
Click Here (Drake towering while lowering posture)
Overall, their height varies so much because of their shoes/posture/angles. Jin sometimes looks a strong 5'10, others 5'9. V looks anywhere from 5'8 to 5'11 because of his clunky shoes/angles. RM looks 5'10 to weak 5'11. Suga/Jimin definitely 5'7. J-Hope/Jungkook clear 5'8.
Final estimates
RM: 179.7cm
Jin:176.3cm
V: 175.3cm
Jungkook: 173cm
J-Hope:172.5cm
Suga/Jimin: 169~171cm.

here ha sungwoon is measured at 167cm, midday-evening time, no tricks.
Click Here
jimin walking next to ha sungwoon. now two assumptions are made. (1) visibly there is 7-8cm height difference. (2) jimin is wearing thicker soles that are 1-2cm higher. this estimates jimin's evening height around 167 + 7.5 - 1.5 = 173cm. therefore, the official report stating 174cm is plausible if he was measured in the morning.
judging from the height difference between bts members, i estimate the following height ranges for bts (morning height as upper bound, evening height as lower bound):
rm 181-179
jin 179-177
v 179-177
jungkook 178-176
jhope 177-175
suga 174-172
jimin 174-172
my conclusion is that their official heights are their morning heights before spinal compression throughout the day which causes 1-2cm height loss. i'm only posting here because i'm interested in knowing their true heights, not to prove anything or assert anything as fact. any refutation of my estimates is welcome.

what do you think V’s weight is? his profile says 62kg/136 lbs.
thank you
Editor Rob
seems a bit lighter than I'd have guessed...
superB said on 12/Aug/21
@Psuez, yeah for sure your guesses seem more accurate, to be honest. I think we can all agree that all of them are whole lot shorter than they're listed.
Psuez said on 11/Aug/21
@superB I think you probably gave the most accurate guesses. RM is definitely a flat 179... Doesn't look that much taller than James Corden. 2 inches max. Looks the same with Charlie Puth, and got dwarfed by Taylor Swift in heels and Shawn Mendez. (Shouldn't be that much of a difference). Think this listing needs a downgrade, average guess is a little under 179 as well.
Jin is a solid 176. V, I would give 174, maybe 175. He gets favorable camera angles a lot of the times, and since the studio is trying to cash in on him as their main visual because of his popularity, they're coming up with the claims that he "grew" in his mid 20s which is a lie... That's why in photos he's looking "officially" looking like a giant 1 with massive shoe insoles. However, in Run BTS, etc, looks 5'8.5 range. J-Hope is a flat 172.7 cm, Jungkook 173cm. Suga & Jimin are in that 169-170cm range. I wouldn't give Jungkook 5'9, because he commentated on how much taller Charlie Puth was when they first met, and Puth is a 5'10 guy, so why would he say that if there's only a one inch difference?
Considering the listed as 5'10ers have good proportions/low weight, I would expect them to look in photos something like Timothee Chalamet who is a legit 5'10. But, whenever they're in flats or with other Celebs, they're looking that strong 5'8 weak 5'9 range + looking up to 2 inches shorter than RM who is arguably just a strong 5'10.
superB said on 10/Aug/21
So I'd say:
RM - about 179cm (5'10.5)
Jin - 176cm (5'9)
V - same as Jin, 176cm (5'9)
Jungkook - around 175cm (5'9)
J-Hope - solid 173cm (5'8)
Suga - 170cm (5'7)
Jimin - 170cm (5'7)
I don't really see Suga and Jimin being anything below 170cm, and I think max RM would be 180cm, but that's if he got straight out of bed.
JISK said on 6/Aug/21
Hey Rob, based on this video
Click Here , does that mean V would be quite lower than 177-178 cm possibility you said he could be at? Cause at the time stamp of 1:07, when comparing his height with RM, the top of V’s head seems to be around RM’s eye level. What would you put V at now? (V the third from the left with the hat)

It seems like Jimin and Suga are 170/5'7" at most judging from them standing beside RM.
Editor Rob
yeah both looked more 5ft 7 range there
Psuedo said on 2/Aug/21
V at most is 174-175. This should be known, but all of the officially "published" photos are edited and he always wear thick lifts where he looks 6'0, and Jin looks 3 inches shorter than him. This is wrong, because in earlier days, Jin always looks taller, and was listed so. I guess BTS made a change, so now V looks a lot taller and is even listed higher though the chance he grew is 0%. If you watch some of the Vlives, or non-edited photos of equal footwear, or even with other Korean celebrities who are listed as 6'0, he looks to be 5'8. Looking at airport photos, even though he has good proportions, it doesn't look close to 5'10...
My guesses, RM is 179.7 cm. Jin is 176. V is 174.5 max. J Hope is 172-173, Jungkook 173, Jimin is a legit 5'6 if you look at unedited photos without his lifts. Suga is barely 5'7.
Sources 4 V
Click Here (Him with other actors, who are all listed as 5'11 to 6'0

Jis said on 30/Jul/21
Hey Rob I think I just found the best photo to compare all of the members heights!! They don’t have any shoes on and they’re all standing inline so no one gets the camera advantage. From the looks of this, since RM is around 180 cm, does this mean that V (2nd from the right) is 178.8 cm and Jin (1st on the left) is 178.3 cm like their profile states? What would you put V and Jin at Rob? You always know best!

Editor Rob
beaches can still throw up differences in height, but sometimes 177-178 does look quite possible for V
Lay said on 20/Jun/21
Editor Rob,
Consider adding some other Korean celebs and stars now. They're the real debates, when it comes to heights (with their insoles and elevators galore). Besides, Korean celebrities are soo big and popular worldwide that I’m sure that lots of people would find this debate interesting and be curious about their heights.
I would suggest to start off with the members of BTS and Blackpink as they’re the biggest idols and also have plenty of pictures taken with Hollywood celebrities as well.
They're really really big names, and will garner healthy debates here I'm sure. Please please consider adding them soon enough. Most Hollywood stars are already here and their estimations are accurately done.
Acmd11 said on 29/May/21
Jimin is in 169-170 cm range
dumb dumb said on 22/May/21
my estimates:
I think on the official profile, their heights are with shoes, but the differences between them seems realistic so based on the information I made these estimates about a few years ago...
short (5'7 ish)
jimin: 5'6.75" (smallest member, 1cm shorter than suga)
suga: 5'7" (seems shortest but often has worse posture than jimin)
average: (5'8-9" ish)
j-hope: 5'7.75" (about inch taller than jimin)
jungkook: 5'8.25" (bit taller than j-hope, tad smaller than v and jin)
jin: 5'8.5"
v: 5'8.5" (jimin says 3-4cm difference between him and v)
tall: (maybe 5'10.5")
rm: 5'10" (has rather a small head, higher eye level, can seem taller as result) but most of the time looks to be 3inch diff with jimin
nz said on 18/May/21
I mean he looks similar to jimin and jhope who are on both ends of him. I think the camera favors jimin slightly but when they face each other, its pretty even too

there's no way v is more than an half an inch taller than jimin/jhope. Here is a picture of them all barefoot.
Only way this is possible now is if jimin is really 5'8 and v is about 5'9. Rm seems about 2-3 inches taller than them.
Jimin/V may actually be 5'8-5'9

would have been interesting if they were all in a line there as the camera I'm not sure which side it might be helping (if at all).

Hey Rob, What’s the tallest guess you would give Jungkook and V?
I would give 175cm personally idk for sure
Editor Rob
I think in 5ft 9 zone for Jungkook can look believable with others.

In this video, the guy on tik tok who mathematically calculates people’s heights, he finally did Jung Kook. He calculated Jung Kook’s height to be 177.82 cm. I thought this was pretty interesting, what are your thoughts Rob?

Editor Rob
If you look at Rm and Jung beside someone like
James Corden I'd rule out 6ft range for Rm.

In this video, by a guy who is very popular on tik tok for making videos about mathematically calculating people’s heights, he calculated RM’s height to be 183.35 cm tall. Rob what are your thoughts? He used accurate measurements for the products he used to calculate RM’s height as well.

6ft and 1/4 for RM, I'd never have went as high as that as a guess.
Mzee said on 2/Jan/21
RM is 1,80 cm out of bed. 1,79 throughout the day. Jin is 1,77 cm, V 1,76 cm, Jungkook 1,74 cm, J-Hope 172 cm, Suga is 1,70 cm and Jimin is 169 cm.
Iril said on 31/Dec/20
@Klooless Sorry but there is no chance that he has grown up recently since he is now 25.. I don't why people still believe this things but if you google at what age a man stops growing it will say somewhere 18-20.. And maybe at 22 if he has a late growth spurt.. But there is no chance one can grow at 25.. no offense but people nowadays still believe at this kind of things and it's ridiculous. You really believe he is just 2cm shorter than Namjoon.. I highlh doubt so.. Rob what do you think?
Klooless said on 30/Dec/20
@Iril Taehyung doesn’t wear lifts anymore, he has not worn lifts in years. When they get measured for their heights it’s an annual health screening, so those are their real heights and weights without shoes. Taehyung has recently said he grew at his latest health screening and is slightly shorter than his dad who is 180cm. None of them wear lifts, they just wear platforms or heeled boots (Jimin) depending on the occasion and stylist choice. We have seen Taehyung still be taller than Jin and Jungkook even when they wear platforms. When they’re all lined up Taehyung is clearly bigger not just frame wise but also his height than majority of the members..Namjoon to me is a solid 5’11.
nz said on 29/Dec/20
@Rob, Usually if someone is exactly 180 cm in korea, and really in the entertainment industry in general, they would report something higher. Its probably more likely for rapmon to be 178-179.
Jin would be 176-177
V 175-176
Jungkook and Jhope 174-175
Suga and Jimin 171-172
Iril said on 28/Dec/20
Honestly.. BTS's height are a curious thing since with thr exception of Namjoon.. the others are confusing and comparable.. For example V looks pretty tall in pictures and usually looks a little taller than Jin when they line up for pictures on award shows, but I believe he is a lift wearer along with Jimin and Jungkook.. I used to think Jin is a exactly 5'10 and his proportions indicate exactly that.. but I'm starting to think he is nothing over 5'9.5 (a weak 177cm) Jimin and Suga seem pretty much the same height and I don't get why they usually mock Jimin over his height when he is not even that short conpared to Jungkook and J-hope... In my opinion:
RM strong 5'11 (180cm)
Jin 5'9.5 (177cm)
V 5'9.25 (176cm)
Jungkook 5'8.5 (174cm)
J-Hope 5'8.25 (strong 173cm)
Suga ans Jimin both 5'7-5'7.25 (170-171cm at the very most if they stay in their best posture)
claims like 5'6 (168cm) or 5'9(175cm) for Jimin and Suga or 5'10 as most army claim for Jungkook are just ridiculous and not to be taken seriously.
nz said on 22/Dec/20
Recently Jin measured 178.3 and Jimin measured 174, Would you reckon that the measurement was in shoes? That would downgrade them to 175-176 and 171-172 respectively.
Editor Rob
this is something hard to know...have they mentioned anything about RM yet?
nz said on 21/Dec/20
You think jimin and jin measured barefoot?
I personally think they were wearing shoes which would give jin about 175 and jimin 171.Jin's a strong 5'9 and Jimin is 5'7.5
Editor Rob
this is the eternal question, if those measurements really were barefoot or not.
Chris L said on 16/Dec/20
Hey Rob! Just trying to give my take on BTS's height.
RM is def in the 5 11 range.
- I really consider Jin at least 5 10 tall. Proportions tell a lot about a person's height. RM and Jin could easily pass for 6 feet if they wished to (which is quite characteristic of 5 10-11 people).
- V/taehyung is definitely in the 176.5-178 range. His proportions honestly do no look short at all. V acted in a drama with Korean actors at around 6 2 (they're actually that freaking tall) and he honestly looked at max 4 inches shorter.
- Jungkook (who loves chunky shoes) and J-Hope are sorta confusing for me, since they sometimes look quite a bit (2+ inches) shorter than RM (who rarely wears big lifts, if at all). However, their proportions honestly dont indicate them any shorter than 173-174 I believe.
- For Suga, I might guess somewhere around 5 7. He's a pretty cool guy who honestly doenst seem to care too much about height, wears little to no lifts and seems very comfortable in his shoes. Seems in that range in comparison to the 5 10-11 dudes.
- I really believe Jimin to be more or less around 168. Really don't see him hitting 170 at all. Jimin's proportions have always seemed "short". Although his legs seem long, his head seems disproportionate to the rest of his body. Keep in mind Kpop stars are skinny af to maintain the illusion of height and even his nice proportions dont really mask how awkward his head is in relation to his whole body. Jimin is the biggest lift wearer in the group and still consistently looks 2-3+ inches shorter than most members.
- As a 173 cm flat guy myself, I've noticed that people within 2 inches of each other are barely noticeable. I dont stand out much in relation to the 5 10 guys. On the other hand, my 5 6 friends honestly dont look too short next to me as well. Whenever, there seems to be a huge height disparity, in normal settings, thats pretty indicative of a 3+ height diff to me
Editor Rob
well proportionally Jin never seems as tall as 5ft 10, however sometimes beside RM he can seem closer to that mark than just 5ft 9
Nolan Matthews said on 14/Dec/20
Rob, Apparently Jin is 178cm range

Orbitalmeteor said on 8/Dec/20
This guy is known for having great body proportions in the kpop industry. What do you reckon his head size and inseam to be?
Editor Rob
not sure on inseam but I don't think his head is that long for his height, it might seem a bit longer than it really is.
Danny.Batba said on 5/Dec/20
Rob could you please answer the last question of mine, how tall do I think RM wakes up at? Your judgement is always the best
Editor Rob
5ft 11.5 I think...there is a chance he falls a fraction under 5ft 11
Bangtan said on 30/Nov/20
How do the members come off as looking so tall? Especially Jin, V and Jungkook if those 3 are only around 5’8”-5’9”?

I also agree that you should add the rest of the members. They are well known global superstars! :)

Wrlccywlrfh said on 16/Nov/20
Hey Rob,
Do you think Jimin is really 174cm? If he's being honest then Jhope, V, and Jungkook could really be 176cm-178cm. What confuses me is that there is some noticeable gap difference in height of 3 of them compared to RM.
Editor Rob
I wouldn't have guessed him as 174, but then some people surprise you with a measurement.
Wrlccywlrfh said on 15/Nov/20
Apparently Jimin is 174cm on twitter?
Editor Rob
in the comment below it showed bts posted his apparent measured height of 173.6 last year and 174 this year.
Jay N said on 15/Nov/20
Hey Rob.
I think RM needs a downgrade to 5ft 10 3/8. Here he is with Robin Roberts who's listed as 5'9, and RM has around a 0.25 to 0.5-inch shoe advantage over her. Yet, he doesn't look 2.25 inches taller, at most 1.5. I think he needs a downgrade to a strong 5'10. Robin Roberts also is clearly taller than Jimin, who looks 5'6 in this video, V at a weak 5'8. They're also notable lift wearers, and even admit it in several videos. Despite the odd angle as well, I feel there's such a noticeable difference that Robin Roberts is taller than every single BTS member besides RM based on this video.

I'm still not so sure on them, their footwear/hair/height varies more than I imagined at first...
I mean I don't know if any of them would wear a lift, but sometimes I raise an eye at the prospect.

The shortest member is jimin who claims your height Rob 1.73 cm do you feel this to be accurate? He looks more like 1.70 -1.72 to me.
HeightActivist said on 21/Aug/20
I saw a video and picture of BTS with taylor swift and RM seems a little bit shorter than her, if Taylor swift was wearing heels she would be about 180cm considering people say she is about 175cm. So if RM is 180cm he should be about same height as Taylor swift In heels right? I feel he is more like 176-178cm range.

JJ xo said on 6/Jul/20
I have met BTS in late 2018. RM is 5'10. The rest of the boys are from a weak 5'6 to 5'9. RM typically wears regular shoes whereas the rest of them wear lifts, especially Jungkook and Jimin. So they're all looking taller than they are apart from RM. Jimin is the shortest at a weak 5'6. Suga is 5'6. Jungkook is 5'7. V at a weak 5'8. Jin is 5'9. The Kpop industry would NEVER list a 5'11 guy as 5'11. He would be bumped up over 6 foot if he were truly 5'11. It is ideal to make the idols seem taller than they are. So they'd bump up RM's official height by a bit and have him wear regular shoes while the other boys are in lifts. So now they aren't that much shorter than RM and are comparable to a fairly tall guy. Also James Corden in shoes was taller than every single one of those barefoot boys apart from RM and Jin. And I suspect James Corden is a little bit lower than 5'8 for most of the day.
Alex Ross said on 3/Jul/20
Hey Rob, is there any chance RM is 5’9.75-5’10? Is that the lowest you would go for him?

5ft 10 you could make a case for.
Blake Lee said on 29/Jun/20
Hello Rob, I’m curious about V’s 178/5’10 listing he’s seems 5’8” range like Jungkook

5ft 10 for V seems less likely than 5ft8-8.5 range

@Someonez you're wrong.
RM - 180 cm
Jin - 178 cm
V (i think he's taller than kook) 177-178 cm
Jungkook - 176-177 cm
J-Hope - 175-176 cm
Suga indeed is 174cm
Jimin is 172cm.
That's according to official heights by BigHit and my guess.

Hi Rob, this is pretty good image to compare their heights as they are all standing in order from shortest to tallest! How tall do you think each of the members are Rob? Jungkook’s footwear obviously gives him a boost, but all the other members are wearing standard dress shoes.
Jimin - 2nd from the left
Suga - 3rd from the left
J-Hope - 5th from the left
Jungkook - 7th from the left
V - 8th from the left
Jin - 10th from the left
RM - 11th from the left

Peter175 said on 31/Mar/20
They aren’t tall or short band. If you took 7 random Korean guys of their age range it would work itself out to the shortest being a weak 5,7 and the tallest being a weak 5,11 just like here.
RM can look under 5,11. I’m not sure about footwear But they did a performance with James Corden and they were barefoot and none of them actually looked it too short. Maybe he is 179-180 and Jimin and Suga are 5,7. These are some of the most honest kpoplistings I’ve ever seen on their profiles. Seong ri was a legit 5,6 range and had been listed as 176. GD at 177 when he’s 171 max.
1994 said on 28/Mar/20
once again, my estimates:
short
jimin: 5'6.75" (Self proclaimed smallest member, 1cm shorter than suga)
suga: 5'7" (often has worse posture than jimin)
average:
j-hope: 5'7.75" (about inch taller than jimin)
jungkook: 5'8.25" (bit taller than j-hope, tad smaller than v and jin)
jin: 5'8.5"
v: 5'8.5" (jimin says 3-4 difference between him and v)
tall:
rm: 5'10" (has rather a small head, higher eye level, can seem taller as result)
Levi said on 26/Mar/20
Seeing him next to Fallon, Corden and Mendes I'd say 5'10" at a push, can look 5'11" in the elevated boots though. 6'0.5" Mendes was quite a bit taller than all of BTS, to the point where they commented on him being tall (why would they if Mendes was at a stretch 2" taller than RM, that's not a large difference).
Shade said on 24/Mar/20
