BTS continues to showcase their global influence and versatility through exciting collaborations, and one of the most unique and refreshing moments came when they unveiled their powerful cover of X Ambassadors’ “Jungle” in a Coca-Cola commercial for the Indonesian market. The advertisement, titled “Turn Up Your Rhythm,” created an immediate buzz among fans worldwide, not just for its dazzling visuals and energetic vibe, but because it featured the unmistakable voices of BTS’ beloved maknae line: Jin, V, Jimin, and Jungkook.
The commercial was more than just an ad, it was an immersive sensory experience. It began with the rhythmic sound of machinery coming to life, as bottles of Coca-Cola rolled down a sleek, high-tech production line. The moment BTS’ voices kicked in with the raw and gritty tone of “Jungle,” the commercial transformed from a simple beverage promotion into a full-blown musical moment. The harmony between the industrial beat of the bottling process and the intensity of BTS’ vocals created a sense of movement, energy, and global excitement.
This wasn’t just any song choice either. “Jungle” by X Ambassadors is known for its deep, intense, and primal energy—lyrics that speak of resilience, survival, and thriving despite challenges. BTS covering the track gave it a whole new flavor. Each member added their own distinct vocal color: Jin’s crystal-clear high notes, V’s deep and textured voice, Jimin’s emotionally rich tone, and Jungkook’s powerful delivery all fused perfectly to create a dynamic rendition that could easily stand on its own.
The ad masterfully wove in visuals of the iconic Coca-Cola red trucks being loaded up with the freshly bottled drinks. As the trucks prepared to set out on their global journey, the voices of BTS provided the soundtrack, symbolizing not only the spread of Coca-Cola’s refreshment, but the reach and influence of BTS themselves. The imagery felt symbolic: just as Coca-Cola travels the world to deliver joy in a bottle, BTS delivers hope, music, and energy through their songs to millions of fans across continents.
In true BTS fashion, the members didn’t physically appear in the ad, but their presence was undeniably felt. Their vocals carried the emotion and drive of the commercial, giving life to every frame. This blend of BTS’ sound with Coca-Cola’s global branding created a seamless collaboration that showcased both the artistic strength of the group and their ability to uplift a brand by simply lending their voices.
Fans around the world were quick to notice the brilliance of the ad. Social media platforms lit up with hashtags like #CocaColaXBTS and #TurnUpYourRhythm. ARMYs praised the ad’s aesthetics, the unexpected but welcome cover choice, and the stunning vocals of the maknae line. The decision to spotlight Jin, V, Jimin, and Jungkook in the project gave each of them a chance to shine vocally, and fans especially appreciated how their harmonies and individual styles were highlighted throughout the short but impactful commercial.
Beyond just a marketing campaign, the Coca-Cola x BTS ad stood as another reminder of the group’s global appeal and branding power. Whether it’s through official music releases, brand endorsements, or surprise collaborations like this one, BTS continues to break boundaries and infuse everything they touch with a touch of artistry and emotion. “Turn Up Your Rhythm” wasn’t just about promoting a drink, it was about energy, movement, passion, and the joy of music, all delivered through the unmistakable voice of BTS..
As soon as the X Ambassadors heard the news, they were extremely thrilled and took to Twitter to share their excitement. They retweeted the ad and wrote
“BTSCOVERED OUR SONG JUNGLE!!!!!! WOWOWOWOWOW the extent of our stardom knows no bounds…thank you legends,” XAmbassadors
