NEW DELHI: Oli London, a 29-year old British man who made headlines for spending $165,000 on 15 plastic surgeries to look like one of the BTS singers Jimin, has released his new original Christmas K-Pop single – Christmas in Korea.

Europe’s first male K-Pop solo artist who had married a cardboard cutout of Jimin in Las Vegas, Oli London released his hotly anticipated new single to help spread Christmas cheer and joy after a tough year around the world due to the Covid-19 and lockdown crisis.

Oli who is claimed to be the highest-charting K-pop artist to-date in Europe has dedicated the single to the people of Korea, his favorite K-Pop group BTS and his incredibly dedicated legion of fans dubbed the ‘Oli Squad’.

The upbeat and festive track features catchy vocals in Korean and English languages, a cheerful melody with sleigh bells and chimes, and a gleeful, hearty music video featuring the star dressed in all white faux fur with snowflakes raining over him.

Oli said of the song “My fans mean so much to me as do the incredible people of Korea and BTS, so I wrote this song to help cheer everyone up during the Covid crisis. I want people to listen to the song and dream of being in a winter wonderland, where everything is carefree, happy, and joyous. Christmas is about spreading love to those around us, giving back to those less fortunate, and loving each other as human beings.”

The single is being released by World Entertainment Media, who have worked with some of the most successful artists of all time including Britney Spears, Michael Jackson, and TLC, and the song is distributed through The Orchard, part of Sony Music.

Simon Britton of World Entertainment Media, who has helped sell over 50 million records Said, “We are truly delighted to be working with this vibrant, talented artist on his forthcoming Christmas single. Oli’s colorful character and sense of optimism shine through on this fun song which radiates a feeling of togetherness and joy, which is a much-needed breath of fresh air for everyone around the World in these uncertain times”.

After first hitting headlines back in 2018, Oli has appeared on major international TV shows including Dr. Phil (CBS), E! Botched, Today Show Australia, Daily Mail TV, E! News, and most recently a BBC documentary series following Oli’s life as Britain’s first K-Pop star.

With over 6 million views on his music videos, 2 iTunes top 10’s, 3 iTunes top 40’s, 120 million views on TikTok, and over 300,000 followers across social media- the British singer has attracted huge interest across the media and K-pop world.
