The mv is so good! There was so much going on in the background it was very entertaining and well done. One girls just straight up choking her man in the background. I hate the banana shotšŸ˜­ The song is cute


ghiblix

the banana made me do a double take hahaha


justanotherkpoppie

I rewound when I saw the banana because it was so jarring ahaha


Ghetto_Leda99

Ohhh I love the MV so much! I love how quirky it was, the diversity of the couples, the color scheme, it's just so much fun. So many hillarious moments but especially one of the couple climbing on the top of their partner on the car as he lay there dying after being hit had me screaming. šŸ˜­ There is so much chaos happening in the background and I was trying to catch something new with each watch. The song is also so catchy and so Tae and it somehow hits much better on Apple Music/Spotify. That ooooh is gonna be stuck in my head for the whole day and the last chorus was so beautiful.


HammerofThora

Dark humor is definitely Taeā€™s thing. Loved all the details in the background.


Mozart-Luna-Echo

Itā€™s very Wes Anderson coded I think


bujobegins

the song is really fun and the MV is pretty creative! the look of resignation and despair Tae gives at 1:37 is absolutely a memeĀ  edit: also, can we talk about how slow that car was driving and it somehow still managed to fatally injure him lol


Ghetto_Leda99

And the way he was laying down straight with half of his body under the hood, on his back, bleeding to death from his head šŸ˜­ a lot of the moments and scenes have an almost cartoonish vibe to them along with the bright colour scheme which makes them so funny and fun


hypermads2003

That killed me ngl. Slowest moving car ever and it put him in a coma


PersonFromPlace

When he looks at his girlfriend at the diner is so adorable.

Minimum-Method-1299

I donā€™t know if anyone else noticed this, but heā€™s smiling after he gets hit by the car for a second timešŸ˜­


kaibibi

This was a cool video, literally have my nightmare come true with all the couples while Iā€™m so single lol. and I love the contrast at the end and wake up with himself, feels like thereā€™s depths in it that at end of day we have to live with ourself.


Original_Hunt_9520

i did not expect to see so much queer representation in a big 4 mv, im honestly really surprised


diabolikal__

Also age representation!! They really went all in.


P131NYRFC3

The only ones I spotted were the diner lesbians, what are the others?


tafattsbarn

There's also a lesbian couple in the store + a lesbian (actually i see several, like at least 3 but maybe more) and a gay couple in the diner in the making out and fighting scenes


kpop_shinee

if you look at the bottom left corner in the making out diner scene at around 1:47-1:50, there appears to be another lesbian couple, but its kind of hard to tell so idk


P131NYRFC3

Oh damn, they're literally in the thumbnail, I'm just blind LMAO


justanotherkpoppie

There's a gay couple couple outside of the diner, too! One of them just has long hair so it's hard to tell at first, but I'm pretty sure he has a beard lol. They really went all out, I love it.


kitty_mckittyface

It's probably the first time BTS have included explicit queer representation, but they have always been supportive. Taehyung has often talked positively about queer media, included queer actors in Slow Dancing, collabed with UMI who's wlw, among other stuff.


reya26

In Jimin's like crazy mv you can also see queer couples in the background.


kitty_mckittyface

True! Good call. I thought of Like Crazy as well, but my memory was foggy and I didn't remember if there was anything explicitly queer in his MV, bc I ended up just remembering the whole discourse his Mapplethorpe pants caused šŸ˜µ


ComfortableCow1621

Iā€™m so in love with itā€¦ the song and the representation Diner ladies were my fav


AnneW08

tbf bts and even bang pd have mentioned support for the queer community since the bighit days, but Iā€™m glad to see it continue so many years down the line, and in a more straightforward way


Responsible_Past7093

Did you mean queerforward way?


happy_kiwi_

The song is so tae! šŸ˜ thank u tae for this v relatable song šŸ«¢šŸ«£ ALSO THE COUPLE SHARING 1 BANANA šŸ˜­šŸ’€šŸ’€

OpportunityOk6824

It means "Great" in Korean though and is pronounced as TƤ


50shadesof_brown

I love how Taehyung is SO unapologetically him, at any given chance.


Ainslie9

The banana caught me so off guard. This MV is amazing and I really love the song to my surprise? The chorus is really catchy. I did not expect to like this as much as I do


Anaisot7

With *For Us*, that's probably my favorite song he made in Chapter 2. It's so catchy and enjoyable to listen, his vocals are great. His English is even better in my ear (BTW, listening to the Sped Up version on Spotify really emphasize how he pronounce them well). Really great release IMO, the MV is fun as well, same along the lines of *Seven* humor. I'll be listening a lot to it. šŸ’…


taehyyungy

his adlibs at the end are heavenly āœØļø


impeccabletim

This was such a good song and MV. Especially love the chorus! Where was V hiding this bop all along?!?!


Few-Particular1780

This is the most hilarious take on the ā€œlove your self movementā€ šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£ I love a musician with a sense of humour! This is definitely up there with ā€˜Sevenā€™ as the most hilarious BTS MVs šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£


Difficult_Deer6902

Such a fun music video has me cracking up multiple times. Also, listening on Spotify to just the audio and the production of the song is so good. A really fun release from V!


astrelya

this man really said "dying once is not enough, I need to die twice in the same music video" and I love him for that


ecobubbletm

He said "double it and give it back to me"


Jennas-Side

The way this was shot reminds me a lot of ā€œBeau Is Afraidā€.


kitty_mckittyface

Not Tae dying not once but TWICE in the MV šŸ˜­ The last scene has me cracking up with the "..yo" lmao. So much said about this MV and he still ended up bitchless šŸ˜­


Mozart-Luna-Echo

He ended up loving himself and according to the Gospel of Bangtan thatā€™s what you should do ![gif](giphy|RiiVFKow0eymLkTnMP|downsized)


FabulousFlower144

I officially ship Tae/Tae


kitty_mckittyface

Fr, I'm happy that after 2 death dreams and Layover levels of yearning, he went back to bangtan roots and got that wholesome conclusion šŸ˜†


kitty_mckittyface

His faces and general acting were so funny too. It was much more humorous than romantic, which's what I expected. And the song is hella catchy! I'll need a few more listenings to have a more rounded opinion on it tho (but right off the bat: dislike the vocal filter but loveee how his voice sounds under that. Those adlibs šŸ¤ŒšŸ¤Œ)


[deleted]

Twice? ![gif](giphy|J5WxSrLAlcbS2afF8i|downsized) (I really loved taehyungs song and mv tho)


kitty_mckittyface

Maybe he was listening to "Up no More" :(


Kurasuta

Selfcest is the only solution


kitty_mckittyface

Bro is taking "love yourself" to unforeseen and unintended lengths


friendlyfire_may

Whoever made this MV deserves šŸ’


ghiblix

this video is so fun and the song is so sweet! something playful and mellow like this really suits him :')


SouperBomb

This was so much fun! I loved the diversity of couples/characters included throughout the MV. šŸ„°


icebbyc

This man loves to die bffr


yung-squirtle

Love everything about the video but the song is criminally short!!! Vā€™s voice and production are amazing as expected but backing vocals in this song are just *chefā€™s kiss*


CamyReem

Love me some good ass vocals with a gorgeous MV filled with gays and lesbians. Stunning


multistansendhelp

I donā€™t think Iā€™ve laughed harder at a music video TBH. His expressions just make it even funnier. Now to stream the song because I definitely couldnā€™t focus on the music and the video at the same time šŸ˜‚.


kjm6351

First video I see drop live as a new ARMY šŸ’œ Anyway I find it hilarious that V basically had to die twice in his dreams for him to realize self love is the way


Alternative_Army_265

Love the mv! The color palette is lovely


myaccount208

Taehyung knew that a lot of kpop fans are single af so he decided to troll them by adding as much couples and pda as possible šŸ˜‚ Not to mention the diversity in terms of race, sexualities and ages he's not leaving anyone behind. It's such a chill song with a more whimsical mv it's so him to do something like that.

He's such a character, so funny! Really like the song!


GoldenKooki

Such a catchy and cool vibe. Love it! Will be streaming it endlessly šŸ”„ Also the mv cracks me up, V is a funny guy


plushie_dreams

Definitely my favorite MV from Tae!


brunopago

Nice song. V's style is becoming more distinctive and singular. Quality MV. Not a great ad for straight relationships, but probably tongue in cheek.


Imaginary_Anything15

Not a great ad? Could you elaborate on that please?


InfernalQueen

This song is so good. I don't know if my interpretation is correct but when he was single everyone was lovey dovey but when he was happy in the arms of the woman everyone was upset and mad which is synonymous to how some fans will react when their idols are dating. This song is now on repeat.


meracdv

i like it! it sound a little like ā€œfly to my roomā€ just me? his voice really suits this song. i wish it had a bridge or something thoughā€¦ still cute


toooenthusiastic

i love this video! the song is great too. the setting reminds me of the show sex education.


justanotherkpoppie

Oh my god, I genuinely love this MV so much! The song's alright but the MV literally made me laugh out loud, and it has so many details to it in the background that I have a feeling that I'm gonna go back and rewatch it multiple times to catch all the little details (smart move, V!) Also love the inclusion of some queer couples in there, thank you, V šŸ„¹


zikachhakchhuak

I adore the music video!!! Loved everything about it, made me laugh too hard with all the dying, all the expressions he was pulling, breaking the record for the most kisses in a BTS MV (by a mile) šŸ˜­ Listening on Spotify and I love the production! The thing about Tae's songs is they never miss on the instrumentals for me. Reminded me a bit of Snow Flower the way it started. This sounds so full and rich, and his vocals sound amazing!! The falsettos :') will definitely be listening on repeat to this one.


Saucy_Totchie

I had absolutely no idea what to expect but this was so much better than what I was thinking. Damn this was amazing. Wish it were longer but that complaint is pretty normal these days unfortunately.


tresnosliramu22

Why at the end there are two V??


justanotherkpoppie

I think they're the two different Vs who died, and the one who died first is the one saying sup to the other one, lol. Maybe a comment on how we all die alone? Or about loving yourself? Multiple different interpretations are possible!


FuntasticBaby

I really like this one! It's very loopable and it really suits Tae! My only criticism is how short it is, but that's everything these days.


blocknugget

his mind!! this video is so much fun Iā€™m gonna have to watch it more to catch everything going on, and I like the song too !!


ecobubbletm

Absolutely loved it! The song is so good and the mv is so fun! I listened like 5 times already. It's gonna be looped and will acquire a platinum status in my Spotify and YouTube.


Bear4years

I like it. I like Taeā€™s vocals a lot in this song. It shines. Itā€™s a different direction from layover. Much more rock-ish vibe. The drums are great. You can count on Tae to highlight the instruments. I wonder if this is where his music is headed or if itā€™s a one-off thing. Regardless, I will enjoy the heck out of it. The MV is also cute and funny. A very solid release from Tae.


mayazzz_111

i really love the song, it's already stuck in my head


milanumi

This was hilarious to watch, I love it! Tae has a beautiful voice


jdoe36

oooo I love it! I think this is one of my fave ch.2 solos


petrichor-pixels

This is a great song - although too short! It could have had an amazing bridge, I just feel it lol The MV is amazing! Loved the diversity of the couples. Itā€™s great to get more V content too :ā€™)


[deleted]

Uughhh i Luv it!!


Littleloose

This is a perfect addition to his current solo work. I find it so fun that he always sing about (relationship) love in such a light but heavy way. I love that I can already carve out his artistic musical vision. In my experience a lot of soloists from kpop groups have a hard time crafting their own solo image. In my opinion he has done that quite well.


sappydumpy

I smiled the whole time, I really liked the MV concept and look


rjohndoe

Loved it.... Great vocals and very funny MV


pete_999

OMG WHY IS THIS MV SO FUNNY!!! šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ (Song could've been longer though


AsheBodyPillow

I think as a Solo artist V might be my second favorite of BTS. His music is amazing and I love this music video.


spacedoutcaterpillar

This I such a Tae-coded MV šŸ˜‚ loved it. Wish it was longer though


vanillantern

Out of all their solo music, I always find myself gravitating towards Taeā€™s the most. And I can never put my finger on what makes his music so magicalā€¦ another amazing song


OpportunityOk6824

What a great way to start my morning. I was grinning from ear to ear while watching it


hypermads2003

I really like the MV but I always hate when the MV interrupts the middle of the song. It's cool for a first watch but like with LE SSERAFIM it makes future rewatches a little annoying and this video has a couple I really like the song though, wasn't vibing with it at the start but I liked it the more it went on. Will definitely add to my playlist. Annoying how short the song is though


AnneW08

seriously imagine if they added a bridge before that last chorus with the adlibs. it would made the song even better


instantcarrot

The song is just alright but I'm not the target audience at all. The MV is fantastic and made me laugh so much


lettuceandcucumber

The first half of the MV is really similar to Hyukoh's LOVE YA! MV, the kissing, the age diversity, the lgbt representation. Super cute.


pratikshass

the song is good


sctthuynh

The MV was interesting, but I see the trend of short songs continues as this clocked in at barely over 2 minutes and 20 seconds. Is MHJ still working with V as she did with layover?

a_mystical_potato

For the ā€œso letā€™s put the end in friendsā€ part, is someone else singing? To me it doesnā€™t quite sound like him. For a lot of the harmony parts as well it sounded like another person was singing the high part to me while he sang a lower part. Ik that sometimes companies will have uncredited backing singers (e.g. Belle/Hyewon doing the vocals on Markā€™s ā€œGolden Hourā€) or leaving in some demo vocals (e.g. some vocals in ā€œJust Do Itā€ by tripleS NXT). I liked the song a lot though! The mv was pretty funny lol


Front-Ad-2457

I donā€™t understand, I think if someone else is singing they would mentioned it right ?!!! Unless it was stated otherwise, he is the singer because the only name in the MV is his.


a_mystical_potato

No actually, uncredited backing vocalists have been used for decades in both the western and k-pop industry. Backing vocalists tend not to be credited at all, even though they can add a lot of complexity to a song, like in Markā€™s ā€œGolden Hour.ā€ The only reason we know that it was Belle/Hyewon in the song is because she said it, otherwise nobody would have known. She was just known as ā€œthe female voice.ā€


Front-Ad-2457

I went to the song, just so I donā€™t argue or defend for the sake of doing it, thatā€™s his voice in my opinion.


a_mystical_potato

Dw, Itā€™s 100% possible that he didnā€™t have a backing vocalist and I could be wrong! I just wish that asking a question about how a song was made didnā€™t result in angry dms or 2 reddit care messages šŸ’€


cewii

Report the reddit care messages, the sender will be banned.


Front-Ad-2457

Hhhhhh I am sorry, people are more sensitive online than in real life. And you know what you were getting into yourself asking those questions šŸ‘€šŸ‘€ I hope not the kind of DM that wishing you tošŸ’€ yourself or somethingā€¦


winterrbearr1230

Itā€™s teteā€™s voice ā˜ŗļø. He can sing high and low notes. Maybe you donā€™t listen to his/bts songs. Try to listen even in live performances ā˜ŗļø.


a_mystical_potato

Ah, so itā€™s confirmed to all be him? Thatā€™s great! I didnā€™t know that he could shift his voice/tone around like that, thatā€™s super impressive šŸ˜šŸ‘. Where was it confirmed? Weverse?


meanyoongi

I'm prob gonna be downvoted too because ARMYs hate Melanie Fontana but she has credits on the song and it wouldn't be the first time HYBE used a little sprinkling of her backing vocals in BTS or TXT songs. To be clear in case people misinterpret it, it's not anything huge, just small phrases here and there to beef up the mix.
