BTS’s V has achieved another incredible milestone with his self-composed song "Sweet Night". Billboard Korea has named it one of the "Korean Drama OSTs That Instantly Bring Drama Scenes to Mind," proving its timeless impact on fans worldwide.
"Sweet Night" was featured as part of the hit drama Itaewon Class OST and was released on March 13, 2020. The track is extra special because V wrote, composed, and produced it himself, showcasing his talent as a singer-songwriter. Billboard Korea praised the song for its ability to evoke vivid memories of the drama’s most emotional moments.
The global love for "Sweet Night" began right from its release. It debuted at No. 1 on both the U.S. and U.K. iTunes Top Songs charts, and it didn’t stop there! The song broke records by becoming the first track in history to reach No. 1 in 119 countries on iTunes, even surpassing Adele’s legendary record. TIME magazine also highlighted its magic, calling it "a beautiful blend of V’s deep voice and the warmth of the acoustic guitar melody."
V’s OST success isn’t limited to "Sweet Night". On Spotify, "Sweet Night" and his other OST "Christmas Tree" hold the No. 1 and No. 2 spots as the most-streamed Korean OSTs on the platform.
Billboard Korea also celebrated other iconic OSTs, including Goblin’s "I Will Go to You Like the First Snow", Crash Landing on You’s "Give You My Heart", and Squid Game Season 2’s "To You", but it’s clear that "Sweet Night" continues to shine as a standout masterpiece.
