BTS’s V Leaves His Mark with a Creative Suggestion
Behind the Scenes of ‘Love Wins All’ with BTS’s V
Recently, Eom Tai-hwa, director of IU’s latest music video ‘Love Wins All’, shared exclusive insights from the shooting process at the 13th Muju Film Festival. The event, which also screened the music video, provided a platform for the audience to engage with the director during the Talking Cinema event.
#### V’s Game-Changing Proposal
The session revealed an interesting anecdote regarding V’s involvement. When asked about his communication with V post-shoot, Director Eom shared with a laugh, “I texted him,” revealing the camaraderie built during the pleasant shooting phase. He smilingly reminisced, “We worked together right up to the night before V’s enlistment, and right after, he shaved his head to enlist. His energy was infectious.”
V, known for his heartfelt dedication, made an impactful suggestion that significantly altered the final cut. Originally, the plan was to conclude with a scene of V and IU singing and moving towards the audience. However, due to time constraints, Eom was initially resolute about this scene. V, showcasing his intuitive creativity, proposed, “What if we shoot something different that could turn out even better?” Convincing as his idea was, the director couldn’t help but agree.
The last-moment change was a success, and the reaction from the cast on set was overwhelmingly positive, resulting in applause and appreciation.
#### IU’s Perfect Choice
In discussions of how V came to be the lead in the music video, IU previously explained the thought process, emphasizing the need for a boyish charm balanced with assured presence once awakened to the role. V, upon hearing the song early on, immediately showed enthusiasm, saying, “This is great! I want to do it.” His involvement goes beyond acting; it’s about bringing the story to life with emotional depth and subtle expressions.
V’s knack for nuanced performance, coupled with his genuine passion, came through powerfully, affirming his talent as not merely a singer but an actor with vast potential.
#### V: The Renaissance Man
In the backdrop of this project, V has also directed his own music video for his self-composed track ‘Winter Bear’, further establishing his multidimensional artistic abilities. Such ventures have garnered him recognition globally, with some media dubbing him a “true Renaissance man encompassing not just music, but all forms of art.”
V’s work in ‘Love Wins All’ bridges the gap between music and visual storytelling, stamping his identity on more than just the Korean wave. His artistic journey continues to inspire and captivate audiences worldwide.
