Burj Khalifa's 3-minute-long birthday wish for BTS's V is grand!
What's the story
BTS's vocalist V aka Kim Taehyung celebrates his 25th birthday today. Naturally, the BTS Army and other fans of the Korean pop band observed the day pompously. But a wish from an unexpected corner surprised everyone, and that's none other than Burj Khalifa! The wish from the tallest building in the world was grand but it happened yesterday due to time difference.
Wish
His self-composed track 'Winter Bear' was played in the backdrop
The tower exhibited a three-minute light-and-sound show playing Taehyung's track, Winter Bear. This was followed by a dancing light show choreographed on the song. China V Bar, his China-based fan club, had organized the ad. This made V, who turns 26 as per Korean system, the second star after SRK and the first Korean personality to have his birthday celebrated by the building.
