In translating the message of BTS V in English, soompi.com wrote:

"Hello, ARMY. Are you having a warm end of the year? I’m glad the weather isn’t too cold yet! It feels like it’s been a while since I greeted ARMY with music.

"I have fond memories of preparing the duet with my beloved Hyo Shin hyung, and also the carol by Bing Crosby, whom I deeply respect, which will be released soon. Time flies, and it’s already December.

"Actually, the reason I’m writing this post today is that recently, Yeontan has embarked on a long journey to the dog stars. I thought a lot about how to tell you this, but I felt it was right to share this news with ARMY, who have shown so much love for Yeontan.

"I would be grateful if you could remember Yeontan and wish for his happiness even in the stars.

"I hope you have a warm end of the year where you can tell your loved ones that you love them once more.

"I wish ARMY to always be healthy until the day we meet again!

"I love you. Thank you."
