V of BTS to release new version of "White Christmas" with Bing Crosby
Briefly

"I'm so grateful to have had the chance to be featured in a song with my all time favorite jazz artist, Bing Crosby. I grew up listening to his song 'It's Been a Long, Long Time' countless times a day, and I feel incredibly fortunate and honored to have sung along on 'White Christmas' with the voice of someone I consider an idol. Being a huge fan of his, I sang with the utmost sincerity and admiration for him, and I hope many people enjoy it as much as I enjoyed singing it."
"As a family, we are thrilled to have V and Dad singing together on this ultimate Christmas song," said Mary Crosby, Bing's daughter.
V's history of loving Bing Crosby, and jazz as a whole, is extensive; his 2023 solo project saw him incorporating many of the genre's defining traits into his music. He then brought a live band to his appearance on Tiny Desk Korea, where he doubled down with a saxophone player.
Currently, V is completing his compulsory time in the South Korean military alongside his bandmates RM, Suga, Jimin, and Jung Kook. j-hope recently returned to civilian life, while BTS's eldest, Jin, is gearing up for the release of a solo project of his own.
