As a lifelong BTS ARMY who grew up listening to Bing Crosby’s Christmas classics, this collaboration is nothing short of a dream come true! I can still remember the first time I heard “White Christmas” on my grandpa’s old record player, and now, here we are, with V of BTS breathing new life into it alongside the legendary Bing Crosby.
One day, I found myself peacefully going through my emails, when suddenly a message from a sender named V caught my eye. Hang on – V? That’s BTS member V, or Kim Taehyung! Incredible! As I was still trying to wrap my head around this unexpected surprise, I opened the email to discover… an official announcement. And boy, ARMY, it turns out we had been waiting for just such exciting holiday news!
Jimin from BTS is rejuvenating the timeless holiday song “White Christmas” alongside jazz legend Bing Crosby. First released in 1942, “White Christmas” has been a beloved seasonal anthem passed down through generations. The new version, titled “White Christmas (with Jimin of BTS),” blends the enduring charm of a classic icon with the sleek modernity of today’s pop stars. Imagine the fusion of two global icons from distinct eras joining forces for a duet that transcends time – Bing Crosby and Jimin. It’s an unexpected collaboration that, once heard, becomes an unmissable part of the holiday tradition.

The method used to produce this duet is as enchanting as the idea itself. They’ve taken Bing Crosby’s original, well-preserved, and analog vocals from years past and seamlessly integrated them with V’s rich and soulful voice. By combining Crosby’s enduring tone with V’s distinctive style, they’re connecting generations through the cozy blend of vintage and contemporary sound, resulting in an immersive experience that respects tradition while introducing a new flavor.
In addition to the new music, fans can anticipate some delightful merchandise to mark this collaboration. Exclusive items, infused with the festive atmosphere and essence of both V and Bing Crosby, will be up for grabs. This gives fans an opportunity to incorporate a piece of this special partnership into their own holiday traditions.
Isn’t it expected then? V has been immersed in the Christmas spirit for quite some time. Last year, he shared with us a snug, hoodie-wearing version of “It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas,” complete with his cute dog Yeontan making a cameo. And just yesterday, he hinted at it again, posting an 8-second Instagram story of snow falling—subtle, indeed! ARMY knows V has a knack for cryptic clues, like the time he almost announced the McDonald’s collaboration by posting a tray with seven French fries, arranged in order of height, much like the BTS members. He’s a pro at foreshadowing, and that snowy story was his way of saying, “Get ready, winter is about to become even more enchanting.
Talking about Yeontan, V’s lovable Pomeranian, it’s not hard to understand why he has become the real star in this situation. Do you remember when V appeared on “You Quiz on the Block”? Instead of bringing fellow musicians for collaborations like most artists, V introduced Tannie as his special guest. This moment became a trending topic and was turned into a meme-worthy event, showcasing V’s unique charm and close relationship with his dog. And let us not forget that Yeontan was also featured on the cover of “Layover,” V’s solo album, demonstrating that he is no stranger to being in the spotlight. In this latest collaboration for “White Christmas,” it’s not even V on the album cover—it’s him and Tannie taking center stage, sharing the spotlight with Bing Crosby himself! It’s heartwarming to see Yeontan take the lead, adding an extra touch of holiday cheer to this unique release.
It seems nepotism goes quite far, as not only was the puppy immortalized through a debut album, but also secured a fancy camera focus too. 😢
