IU and V are stunning in this - both are gorgeous singers but also wonderful actors [ie...IU in Dreamers...V in Hwarang] What is so gorgeously poignant is that scene, right at the end, where IU's character covers V's good eye so he can't see their end [she is deaf and he is blind in one eye]. I wanted a happy ending but life isn't always about happy endings - this is about the love that conquers all, even in death. As Severus said in HP - ALWAYS. This song and this MV deserve no. 1 everywhere - stunning, just stunning.
Yes V is from BTS, he's our R&B, Jazzy soul singer. with a baritone, but he can also act too. He's been in a K-Drama. IU is my new favorite female singer. I love her in SUGA's People part 2 and in her collaboration with SUGA Eight.
Masterpiece. Beautiful message. Beautiful story, it was not a just a beautiful song. IU and V are imperfect people according to the world. But through another lens, they see each other as perfect. In the real world, they may not have much, but they love each other and commit to each other by getting married. But the world intrudes on them and gets rid of their love, because their love should not be. It gets rid of them. We see that the world has done that before to others love that was deemed not worthy. Their stories is like other love that has come before theirs, disintegrated because they were perceived as imperfect by the world. The real world is broken.
The actor is V from BTS, Kim Taehyung. If you like jazz, r&b, I recommend reacting to his first solo album that came out last Sept 2023. The whole album is amazing, I recommend Love Me Again, Slow Dancing and Rainy Days.
I count myself among those who were waiting for more IU reactions from you😢. But maybe now going forward my wait will be rewarded.😊. Iu is a great story teller. A while she often sounds better live her MV's are very important in her story telling as they had depth, meaning and understanding. They are also like mini detective shows as almost everything in her MV's have a meaning in terms of the story. Some of her story's span more than 1 song in one case upto 4 songs. Below I have listed some of the songs that IU has linked together to tell a story. In 2011 You & I in which the IU finishes building a Time Machine to go to Dec 31st 2019 to meet the live of her life. Dec. 2019 IU releases the song Above the Time as part 2. However, the 2 are now stuck in different dimensions. Introduced in this song is the vibration to signal a disturbance in the force that allows the 2 to break through the barrier of time, dimension etc. The song Blueming continues the tale. Now the 2 are in the same time and dimension but separated by a wall. The final part is Strawberry Moon. Her song Through the Night and her cover of the song With A Determined Heart to Forget You, are songs IU considered to the beginning and ending of a relationship. The two MV's are linked through the hair clasp. Eight is a song of IU telling about her struggles in dealing with the suicide deaths of 3 good friends, Junghyun of Shinee, Sulli and Goo Hara. All 3 are represented in the MV. Sulli is the 2d animated girl in white. I could write a book about all the metaphors and symbolism going on in this. My Sea is a song about IU growing up and the challenges she faced. I have included a few links to some her videos below.

cube represents hate, media, discrimination ..thats why when V hit it at the end it glitched... shes mute and V is half blind, director sad it presents suffering people exp from oppression and hate..where they take ur joy, ur love and identity. Iu saying love wins all. So IU and V love each other till the end even amongst the hateful world.
IU's music video for her pre-released track, 'Love wins all' was released on her official SNS channel at midnight between 23rd and 24th January and has become a hot topic. As soon as the video was posted, the unique video aesthetics of director Um Tae-hwa, who directed the passionate performance of IU and BTS V, resulted in 'nth viewing' (t/n: repeated viewing) by not just uaena, but music listeners as well Regarding the main keywords that led to the 'nth viewing', her agency released this interpretation guide and short interview with director Um Tae-hwa. 1. The "square" (t/n: cube) chasing after the main characters The identity of 'square', which relentlessly pursues the two of them, is the most divided among the fans (t/n: It is actually a cube, but calling it a 'square' is a more explicit way of describing a discriminatory world that only squares fit and not circles). Fans responded with various theories, such as, alien forces that have occupied the world", "zombies infected with a virus' and 'ghosts that cause odd phenomena (t/n:). 'Square' refers to the discrimination against the main characters and can also be interpreted as various kinds of discrimination and oppression that are prevalent in our daily lives. 2. The meaning behind the KEY ITEM, a 'camcorder' Next is the existence of a 'camcorder' that appeared in every promotion teaser. The time period background in the video is the present, but the scenes that are taken with the camcorder show a world that was intact before it became ruined. The lens of the camcorder represents a filter of love. It can also be viewed as an important device that can be used to see beautiful things in the world, beyond the internal and external appearances of characters. In the world within the camcorder, rather than their messy appearance in reality, they look lively and tidy and they eat delicious food that is nicely prepared for them and enjoy the happiness they have only imagined, while wearing glossy dresses and tuxedos. . 3. Outer appearance of the main characters The curiosity of Internet users exploded at the outer appearance of the main characters. There are many symbols in the music video, which show a 'survival story in a dystopian world, of those who cannot speak and those who only see the world with their left eyes. If you look closely at IU's lips, there is a small chain hanging there, which means that it is difficult for her to fully communicate with the world. V also has a white lens in his left eye, so even at a glance, it seems that the two of them will have many difficulties in navigating the difficulties of the world. Nevertheless, in a world ruined by the 'square', they have no choice but to rely even more on each other, as they try to overcome adversity until the very end, even when they are hurt and exhausted. 4. Why the wedding dress and tuxedo? Lastly, it is the wedding dress and tuxedo. IU and V chose a wedding dress and a tuxedo from the ruins. Here, a wedding dress and a tuxedo is the most clichéd way of symbolizing the 'fruit of love'. In the music video, the two of them put on these clothes, take pictures, sing and have fun together, doing things that have been difficult for them to do in their daily lives and enjoy some happiness momentarily. However, the 'square' eventually destroys their bodies, leaving behind only the 'clothes' they were wearing. The two are implied to be floating in the air on the last camcorder screen, which means they can fly freely, free from all kinds of oppression and pressure. Crucially, the dress and tuxedo falling from the sky also implicitly question whether conventions that are considered meaningful and important in real life actually really show the true essence of things.
The cube 'Nemo' represents the discrimination towards marginalized people (symbolized in IU being mute and Taehyung being blind in one eye). They stayed together till the end with their love sustained, free from all oppression and pressure from society. LOVE WINS ALL!
The director did say viewers can have their own interpretation. The camcorder serves as a filter and allows imagination to roam freely. Everything is imagination through the camcorder. Reality resumes when you see their wounds and tattered clothes. In the end, the two of them are seen ascending to a better place through the camcorder, while they are eradicated in reality. So sad. So beautiful. So brutally real.
IU will release a mini album in March and she will start the world tour in March also! This song was written by IU for Uaena who is her fandom showing her love for them and saying they will stay together no matter what.
Maybe the cube doesn't represent anything, maybe its just an invading alien space cube eating people and spitting out their clothes. Like the NewJeans mv for 'Cool With You' being a straight-ahead story of Cupid and Psyche.
this 'guy' is literally the most famous guy in Korea, icon, 'idol of idols', 'most handsome man in the world', the highest paid actor, etc... you should know your sht if you react to kpop
IU and V are stunning in this - both are gorgeous singers but also wonderful actors [ie...IU in Dreamers...V in Hwarang] What is so gorgeously poignant is that scene, right at the end, where IU's character covers V's good eye so he can't see their end [she is deaf and he is blind in one eye].

The boy is V (Kim Taehyung) from BTS.

IU is an actress and the #1 solo artist in Korea and has been for many years. She is a legend...
Masterpiece. Beautiful message. Beautiful story, it was not a just a beautiful song. IU and V are imperfect people according to the world. But through another lens, they see each other as perfect.

You need to see the review by the director. He goes into the meaning of the story. Also view it several times there is alot there
You can start if with her live performances from Golden Hour concert Eight and My Sea.

Don't overthink. Enjoy

🤍💙🤍💜
Ok I hate the cube. But it’s funny that it’s credited 😂.
this 'guy' is literally the most famous guy in Korea, icon, 'idol of idols', 'most handsome man in the world', the highest paid actor, etc... you should know your sht if you react to kpop
the highest paid actor?)) he acted once in 2016, no need to exaggerate please
