BTS member V has surprised fans with an extraordinary collaboration with late music legend Bing Crosby, reimagining the timeless holiday classic, White Christmas.

According to BigHit Music, the idea for this duet began when Crosby’s team, Primary Wave, reached out to V after recognizing his admiration for the legendary artist.
