BTS V’s “Snow Flower” Surpassed 10 Million Views & Garnered 2.1 Million Likes

On December 24, 2020, BTS’ Kim Tae-hyung, known globally as V, gave the world a precious gift wrapped in the softness of his voice and the heartfelt strumming of jazz-influenced instrumentation. “Snow Flower,” a gentle, soulful ballad featuring his close friend and talented musician Peakboy, was not only an early Christmas present to ARMY but also a symbol of hope and gratitude in a year filled with uncertainty. As of now, the song has officially surpassed 10 million views on YouTube and garnered over 2.1 million likes, a testament to the love and appreciation fans hold for this beautiful creation.

V, known for his deep emotional sensitivity and artistry, released “Snow Flower” as a surprise to fans who had been waiting patiently for his solo mixtape. It was shared with no prior notice on BTS’ SoundCloud and YouTube channel, accompanied by a humble message from V himself. In that letter, he explained that he felt uneasy about leaving 2020 without a gift for ARMY, especially when his mixtape had to be delayed due to other schedules and fine-tuning. To fill that silence, he decided to share a song that had been dear to his heart, a warm snowflake falling gently on a cold winter night.

The timing couldn’t have been more perfect. Released on Christmas Eve, “Snow Flower” was wrapped in the comfort and magic of the season, with lyrics that painted a picture of serenity and emotional intimacy. With the world still dealing with the weight of the COVID-19 pandemic, V’s voice served as a balm to weary souls. It was music to heal, to hug, and to remind us that even in moments of darkness, there is warmth if we look for it in each other.

One of the most touching elements of “Snow Flower” was V’s dedication to the “white angels” a term he used to refer to medical professionals who had been working tirelessly throughout the pandemic to care for those affected. In his message, V expressed sincere gratitude to these heroes in white coats, whose selfless service kept the world afloat through the worst times of the health crisis.

This gesture, though simple in its delivery, carried immense weight. In the midst of mass uncertainty, fear, and loss, V chose to shine a spotlight not on himself, but on those who had sacrificed so much. It showed the depth of his empathy and the sincerity of his heart, always thinking of others, always finding a way to show love and appreciation beyond the stage.

Musically, “Snow Flower” is a blend of lo-fi, R&B, and jazz influences. The instrumentation is mellow yet layered, with a cozy guitar riff threading through the entire track, supported by warm bass lines and soft drum patterns. Peakboy’s rap blends seamlessly with V’s vocals, creating a harmonious balance that reflects the duo’s real-life friendship and artistic chemistry.

V’s voice, deep, rich, and honeyed, glides over the melody like snowflakes floating in still air. The lyrics, written by V himself, are poetic and vivid. He speaks of snow piling up like flowers, of sharing warmth under the falling snow, and of wanting to protect someone he loves from the cold. The metaphors are gentle, yet powerful, and V’s delivery makes them feel deeply personal, as though he’s whispering them directly to the listener.

As expected, ARMYs around the world were overwhelmed with emotion and gratitude. Social media exploded with appreciation posts, reaction videos, and art inspired by “Snow Flower.” The song trended worldwide, and fan accounts from various countries translated the lyrics so that more people could appreciate its depth.

What stood out most was how fans connected emotionally to the song. Many shared stories of how the melody calmed their anxiety, how the lyrics brought them peace, and how V’s voice gave them a sense of companionship during times of isolation. “Snow Flower” became more than a song, it became a memory shared by millions, a moment of collective comfort.

The response in numbers was also stunning. “Snow Flower” hit one million views on YouTube within hours and quickly became one of the most-streamed solo tracks released by a BTS member on SoundCloud. Now, with over 10 million views and 2.1 million likes on YouTube, the track continues to resonate with listeners across generations, countries, and cultures.

“Snow Flower” isn’t just a song, it’s a reflection of V’s inner world. Kim Taehyung has always shown a deep connection to the arts, whether through his photography under the name Vante, his songwriting, or his acting. With each solo release, “Stigma,” “Singularity,” “Scenery,” “Winter Bear,” and now “Snow Flower” V unveils more of his emotional landscape. His work often explores solitude, longing, love, and introspection, and “Snow Flower” fits perfectly within this canon.

The delay of his mixtape, while disappointing to some, only built more anticipation. But what V gave ARMY in the meantime was arguably just as impactful. He reminded his fans that their patience matters to him, that their love is returned with sincerity, and that he’s always thinking of ways to stay connected with them.

As the years go by, “Snow Flower” will remain a seasonal favorite for many. Its soft charm, winter imagery, and heartfelt intent make it a go-to comfort track, especially during the colder months. And while it was released during a particularly difficult year, its message of enduring love and gratitude transcends time.

More than anything, “Snow Flower” stands as a reminder of BTS’ bond with their fans, a relationship built on trust, honesty, and mutual emotional support. It also exemplifies V’s unique place within the group: the soulful, introspective artist who speaks less with words and more with emotion, who finds magic in the quietest moments, and who knows how to share that magic through music.

“Snow Flower” is not just another song added to BTS’ already impressive discography. It’s a gentle embrace during hard times, a thank-you note to unseen heroes, and a gift from an artist who knows how to speak straight to the soul. With over 10 million views and counting, it continues to spread warmth, hope, and beauty in a world that desperately needs it. And true to its name, like a snow flower blooming against all odds, it reminds us that even in the coldest season, love can grow.

Happy streaming, ARMY, and thank you, Kim Taehyung, for this timeless treasure. Enjoy the song once again.
