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.

IU recently revealed that she watched her own concert film in a public theater, but shockingly, no one recognized her—even when she dropped a hint!

On February 27, a new video featuring IU was released, showing her inside a car on her way to Daejeon.

She excitedly shared, “This is a surprise stage greeting for UAENA! I picked this location through a ladder game when I did stage greetings.”

Previously, IU had let fate decide which city she would visit after her stage greetings. She happily said, “There are UAENAs everywhere I go. Wherever I go, it's a flowery path.” The game ultimately led her to Daejeon.

IU originally hoped to explore the city, saying, “I wanted to visit Daejeon's pride, Sung Sim Dang, and walk around, but my team said it wouldn’t be possible. The lines are too long, and it’s freezing outside.” She sighed, adding, “So, things turned out this way.”

Dressed up for the occasion, IU smiled, saying, “I don’t get to meet UAENAs in Daejeon often, so I wanted to make a surprise appearance looking my best.”

She also joked about enjoying surprise events, adding, “As long as Hanteo oppa drives me safely, I’m happy.”

But what really caught fans' attention was IU’s unexpected confession—she had secretly watched her concert film in a theater, but no one noticed her! “No one recognized me at all. There weren’t that many people, and it was a weekday… but still! I even gave a hint!” she said, sounding both amused and surprised.

Later, when IU finally appeared at the theater, her fans were overwhelmed with emotion. Some even burst into tears, prompting her to gently say, “You really didn’t expect me to come, right?”

After wrapping up her stage greeting, IU laughed at herself, saying, “Wait, did I just do a 40-minute one-woman show? I must have talked so much.”

On her way back to Seoul, IU reflected on the day, sharing, “It was so cold today. I shook hands with all the UAENAs. My hands are usually cold, and since the weather was freezing, I think I made a lot of people’s hands cold, too. But after touching so many warm hands, mine became warm, too. I still haven’t washed them.”

Her love for her fans truly knows no bounds!
