Hi Jim, glad you caught the technology in this MV, just as I did. Because I am also an electronics & computer enthusiast for decades, I also noticed the CRT's, digi-cams, vinyls & VHS tapes, which made me wonder what was going on with the timeline. Right, I gauge the tech from around Y2k as well. No current tech. But I still don't know why. You were the only one out of many reactors that noticed the "vintage" equipment. I have tons of vintage electronics & ancient computers, such as my C-64's, 8088's & 1980's-90's VCR's/camcorders, heh. Anyway, another major theory that was getting spread was that the MV was a metaphor for couples that stay together for life, then die of old age, of which the box represents their eventual & guaranteed death, thus the Spring Day / Boltanski reference, where you leave all your material possessions behind such as your clothes. My Dad (RIP) left tons of VHS tapes behind. Either the old age theory & the intended theory of disability discrimination fits well. I too have said this would bode well as some sci-fi movie or TV drama, which would be nice if IU & Tae also acted in it, since they are both professional actors as well. I say that because for years I have always wanted to see the 7 guys make a movie or TV on the Bangtan Universe, but the upcoming official Bangtan Universe show "Youth", if it hasn't been delayed again, will use other actors & not BTS.

V AMAZING acting out all these emotions of fear happiness sorrow furious, in a 5 minute music video is crazy because we see actors failing to act out a single emotion in an 1 hour long episode but here he is, the versatility is showing 😭They they forgot what they were running from because through the lens of the camera, they were able to just love and enjoy life until the reality caught up to them and they were taken away ICRY 😭❤

"Give this man an Oscar right now" actors should be grateful V chose music as his main career 💚🔥😢The singular tear falling down Taehyung’s cheek as he accepts his fate. Taehyung is such a powerful actor and able to emote feelings of fear and acceptance all in one scene without a single dialogue

I'm now listening to love wins all again and as soon as it started I had tears in my eyes it's so emotional qnd that wqt I love also like I said before these two need to act in a kdrama with a similar concept to the mv. Also IU's voice is amazing and she I mý ult fav female idol It's Such a emotional yet awe inspiring message in the lyrics which is love conquers all no matter the ending. Also I cried as soon as the song started qnd get tears in my eyes whenever I watch the mv and hear the song

IU is a very unique singer and is known as a national treasure in South Korea. She encountered financial difficulties in her family when she was a child, so she determined to become an "adult" who could support her own life earlier. Because she likes singing, she decided to be a singer. She hoped to connect the hearts between "I and YOU" through music with emotions, so she took the stage name "IU". Originally, she wanted to be a traditional ballad singer when she debuted, but because too young, she did not gain much attention from the public in that time(when she is only 15). Later, the entertainment company tried to package her as an idol singer and achieved great success (in the year she was 18). But when she became very popular with the public at the age of 21 with her beautiful appearance and cheerful personality, she decided to regain her original ambition and embark on a completely different path from ordinary Kpop......She remake songs more than 20-years-old, and re-introduced the popular culture of the previous generation to the younger generation, and received a very good response from public. From then on, Koreans no longer viewed her as an idol with only a sweet image, but instead viewed her with respect as a real "artist of music" who contributed to popular culture. In additional to her famous angelic voice just like moonlight, she is also known for her versatility and is an award-winning singer, music producer, lyricist, also a top-tier actress and model. She has many popular songs written by herself. Because she has held the belief that "love will eventually win" for many years, she wrote the lyrics and produce the project herself, and specially asked the film director she had collaborated with to film this MV.(The directer won the 2023 Blue Gragon Films Award of Korea)

In fact, the concept of "mountains of clothes" comes from 2010, it's French artist Christian Boltanski’s ambitious installation, "Personnes". Due to its shocking, satirical and warning effects, it seems to be quite famous in the realm of arts... I checked the information and found that it has been re-exhibited in the third revised version.

Thanks, Jim, for putting this on KZbin. This mv causes me to tear up, starting from the opening piano. I'm thankful I only tear up now. The first forty eight times I sobbed and had pickled eyeballs. It'd be great if you would put BTS Sunday news on KZbin again. I really enjoyed it. I've never thought of a mini fridge being a murderer before. Thanks for your insights.

omg I started watching your videos back when you first got to know BTS 2 years ago! I don't know what happened but the last time I saw you has been 1 year ago and you never showed up on my YT Algorithm after that, not even when I search for BTS reactions :( I suddenly remembered you and found your channel again xD I'm gonna go and binge your bts journey from the beginning again

It's funny how you mentioned the clothing. It was apparently Sub-Zero temperatures while they were filming. Not a reference to Spring Day. This is IU's song from a different label not a BTS song. It is a common representation of lost souls to use piles of clothes. I get that all of us ARMY think of Spring Day when we see them but everything is not linked to BTS and we need to pull our heads out of the BTS rabbit hole once in awhile. Everything is not always about BTS as much as we might want it to be.

In the restaurant scene I believe everyone is dressed in black and their faces are covered because when you are in love, it’s just the two of you that you notice as well as the dark dressed people, being the nameless, faceless masses, hold contempt for them for being in love and being different
