This December, BTS star V, and legendary crooner Bing Crosby will delight fans with a fresh duet version of Crosby’s 1942 holiday classic ‘White Christmas’. Set to release on 6 December, this era-bridging collaboration—facilitated by the Bing Crosby Estate, Primary Wave Music, and Geffen Records—arrives exactly 47 years after Crosby’s memorable cross-generational duet with David Bowie.

V, a longtime admirer of Crosby, expressed his excitement: “I feel incredibly honored to have sung along on ‘White Christmas’ with someone I consider an idol.” The BTS star’s admiration for Crosby’s music has been well-documented, and this duet highlights his respect for the jazz icon’s legacy. 

The Crosby family also celebrated the release. Mary Crosby remarked, “Their voices blend beautifully, capturing the holiday spirit perfectly.” To commemorate the collaboration, fans can access special holiday-themed merchandise, including two vinyl editions—a Holiday Picture Disc and Zoetrope Snowflake Vinyl—as well as unique CD options. These exclusive items are available for pre-order here.

V and Bing Crosby’s ‘White Christmas’ will be available globally on 6 December at 2 PM KST / Midnight ET, bringing fans a timeless holiday gift that merges Crosby’s classic charm with V’s soulful style.
