“I couldn’t make it for the MV of ‘Don’t ever say love me (featuring RM of BTS)’ because of a variety of reasons, so we said, ‘Let’s do a video of us singing live.’ But I didn’t know it’d be such a big project,” RM shares. “The scale has gotten a lot bigger — this video is in between a MV and a video of us singing live. I’m happy to be with my friend.”
Despite such an arduous day on set, the BTS star shared that he was thankful for the experience. “It’s been a while since I’ve worked, so I’m happy and it feels so new. It was fun to grab a mic and sing live for the first time in a while. I think it’ll be a good influence on my work as well,” he concludes.
