by Group N-Hyphen member Jake appeared on a giant billboard in Times Square in New York to celebrate his birthday.
According to Whosfan, a global K-pop fandom platform on the 18th, N-Hyphen’s Jake took first place in the voting for the third week of November in ‘Who’s the idol to celebrate birthday in Times Square?’ With the support of Whosfan, a happy birthday advertisement was sent out on a giant billboard in Times Square, New York.
Jake, who celebrated his birthday on the 15th, took first place with 63.64% of the Times Square advertisement voting votes. This voting took place for a week from October 25th to November 1st, and GOT7’s Yugyeom and P1Harmony’s Jongseop took second and third place in turn.
The advertisement is sent out for a week from November 15th to 21st, the day of Jake’s birthday, on a giant, 47-meter-long billboard in the building next to ‘tkts,’ known as the heart of New York’s Times Square.
On the afternoon of the 18th, Whosfan released a local video of the advertisement being broadcast through YouTube’s ‘Whosfan TV’ channel. The advertisement is a video made by Jake’s global fans, adding meaning.
In the video, the charm of Jake’s vocals, dance, visuals, and stage dominance, as well as the phrase “icon of growth,” which is Jake’s modifier, were all hailed by the global fandom.
