BTS V, who's also the lead actor's trusted friend, participated in completing the official soundtrack of the series.
With his warm tone and perfect singing ability in "Christmas Tree," he embodied the melancholia and sadness that the lead character felt about his relationship with his ex-lover.
V also reached a milestone of surpassing 100 million streams on Spotify as a soloist with "Christmas Tree."
3. 'Sweet Night' ('Itaewon Class')
BTS V also lent his soulful voice to the megahit series "Itaewon Class" which stars his close friend Park Seo Joon and rising star Kim Da Mi.
"Sweet Night," written and produced by BTS V, is an English song featuring a warm melody that compliments the deep and raspy voice of the singer.
Sung over a softly played guitar, the song aptly showcases the emotions of the male lead, with the hopes of seeing hope in his darkly clouded life.
V's soothing humming and falsetto gives the song another texture, which is greatly loved by fans (and even non-ARMYs!) and viewers of the drama.
4. 'Yours' ('Jirisan')
BTS Jin proved that he's more than just a pretty face. In 2021, he participated in curating the perfect soundtrack for the A-grade fantasy mystery series "Jirisan."
