The music video also featured an unexpected pairing of Han Sohee and Jungkook that delighted fans. Throughout the behind-the-scenes footage, fans could see them rehearsing together, guided by directors, to bring out the best in their scenes.

However, some fans expressed their frustration as they wanted more behind-the-scenes moments of the two stars together, possibly interacting or sharing candid moments.

Additionally, fans were disappointed that there wasn't a photo of Jungkook and Han Sohee together, as they hoped for a glimpse of their chemistry off-screen.

Despite this, Jungkook took the opportunity to express his gratitude and appreciation to Han Sohee for featuring in the music video. His heartfelt words were well-received by fans, who admired his professionalism and respectful demeanor towards his co-star.

Regarding that, in a Weverse live earlier, he had mentioned:

"Han Sohee helped me a lot as the main character"

In the MV shoot sketch as well, he said:

BTS fans took to Twitter to express their happiness:

During the music video shoot sketch of Seven, Jungkook playfully hinted at the possibility of appearing on Suga's show, Suchwita. Fans were thrilled when the news was confirmed on July 19.

In the sketch, Jungkook expressed his fondness for his hyung, Suga, and their unique dynamic, which fans lovingly referred to as a sweet love-hate relationship. Their camaraderie was evident through Jungkook's dialogues, adding to the fans' delight. The maknae playfully mentioned how Suga might be amazed by the explicit song that he had created. Teasing the upcoming episode of Suchwita, he said:

"This is all from experience. I’ve been a singer for 10 years now. I should be able to do this. But Yoongi hyung still looks akward when he does things like this.” (via YouTube/Bangtantv)

Indeed, the music video shoot sketch of Seven was a treat for BTS fans. Despite the explicit nature of the song, Jungkook's cute and sweet personality shone throughout.

His sincerity and dedication to his artistry were evident, and fans wished him nothing but success and happiness as he embarked on his solo journey with Seven.
