The director nodded readily at V’s one word, ‘sense.’
Director Uhm Tae-hwa, who directed IU’s ‘Love Wins All’ music video, revealed a behind-the-scenes story about filming with BTS’ V.This was at the ‘13th Muju Film Festival’ held on the 6th.The music video was screened at the festival that day, and director Uhm met with the audience at the ‘Uhm Tae-hwa Short Film Selection’ talking cinema event.

● V’s suggestion for changing the music video “How about something else instead of that scene?”
When the host, Cineplay editor-in-chief Joo Sung-chul, asked, “V will be discharged soon.Have you contacted him?” Director Um laughed and said, “He texted me.” He continued, “I had so much fun working with Taehyung on set.We filmed until the day before he enlisted, and as soon as we finished, he got a haircut and enlisted.”

The energy that V poured into the music video was hot.Director Um said, “Taehyung definitely has a desire to act.I’m not joking.I definitely want to work with him again later,” expressing his affection and anticipation.

There was also an anecdote about an ‘on-site idea’ that happened during filming.Director Um said, “Originally, we planned to have V and IU sing and jump into the audience in the last scene, but we were really pressed for time.I insisted on that scene until the end, but V suggested, ‘How about we do something better than this scene?’ I was convinced by that.” He recalled, “In the end, we took that scene out and put in another scene, and I remember the audience(music video actors)applauding and liking it.”

● “Boyhood and Awakening” … The Reason IU Chose V
IU herself revealed the background of V’s appearance in this music video.She explained, “When I was talking with Director Um Tae-hwa about the male lead, he said that he should have a boyish charm but also be solid when he awakens.So I thought, ‘Where can you find someone like that?’ But when I sent the music to V first, he said, ‘The music is so good! I want to do this.’”

V received favorable reviews for his dramatic emotional changes and delicate expressions.His acting skills, emotions, and sensibilities shown in the music video, and above all, his passion and desire for acting, give us a glimpse into the fact that his talent is not something that can be ended with just ‘one music video’.

In fact, he has experience in directly directing the music video for his self-composed song ‘Winter Bear’, and has been praised by foreign media as “a true Renaissance man who embraces not only music but all arts.”
