• BTS V’s ‘Sweet Night’ Named One of the Most Iconic Drama OSTs by Billboard Korea — Here’s Why It’s Still Breaking Records

    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.

    With his incredible talent and record-breaking achievements, V has firmly cemented his place not just as a BTS member but also as a global artist loved by fans everywhere.

    On April 3, Jin visited Gilan Middle School in Gilan-myeon, Andong, to serve meals to disaster victims and firefighters. His actions brought much-needed comfort to the people in the area.

    Gilan Middle School is where celebrity chef Baek Jong Won, a close friend of Jin, has been running a free meal service through his company, The Born Korea.

    Since March 28, The Born Korea has been providing meals for the wildfire victims, preparing 300 to 700 servings each time to ensure that the affected people and firefighters receive warm food.

    Jin quietly made his way to Andong, a region that suffered extensive damage from the wildfire, to lend a helping hand.

    Big Hit Music, Jin’s agency, shared, “Jin wanted to provide even a small amount of help to those affected by the wildfires, which is why he decided to participate in this volunteer activity.”

    This heartwarming gesture follows BTS's large donations for wildfire recovery efforts. Jungkook donated a whopping 1 billion KRW, while V gave 200 million KRW, and RM, J-Hope, and Suga each contributed 100 million KRW to aid in the recovery.
