[MV] SEVENTEEN(세븐틴) _ SVT VOCAL TEAM – ‘바람개비’

Known affectionately as “Sebuchi,” SEVENTEEN has an enormous fanbase in Japan.

Among them, Woozi—whose petite build is one of his charms—created the song “바람개비” inspired by a dream he had.

Incidentally, the title means “windmill” in Japanese.

Listening to the song while imagining the story of it coming from a dream and the gentle turning of a windmill gives you the feeling of being wrapped in a magical winter scene.

Also pay attention to the distinctive vocal parts by Jeonghan, Joshua, DK, and Seungkwan, in addition to Woozi!

Crystal Snow

This is a Japan-exclusive original song by BTS.

Its beautiful lyrical world and soaring vocals can captivate even those who aren’t fans.

Snow disappears when warmed, then flows away like spilled tears…

It’s a poignant winter song about the longing of wanting to hold the one you love no matter how much you wish for it, yet knowing it can’t come true.

This is a smash-hit love song by the male idol group BTOB that won seven trophies on Korean music shows.

It tenderly conveys the aching feelings of someone who continues to long for a former lover.

In 2016, they won the Best Vocal Group Award, and they are known as healing idols who combine both popularity and talent.

Snow Flower (feat. Peakboy) by V

This heartwarming song was co-created by BTS’s V and his close friend Peakboy and gifted to fans at Christmas in December 2020.

With a warm-toned electric guitar and an R&B vibe, it gently wraps a winter-chilled heart.

The lyrics’ worldview—likening snow to “white flowers” that repaint the world beautifully—is truly romantic.

V’s deep, soft low register layered with Peakboy’s light vocals creates an intimate comfort that soothes just by listening.

Officially released for streaming in August 2023, this gem is a healing number you’ll want to play slowly on a cold night, in a warm room, while thinking of someone special.

Please savor it.
