As the heartfelt music video Love wins all by Korean artist IU premieres on January 24, fans and music critics were moved to tears.

"This is like run mv all over again": Fans share amusing thoughts on X stating that they understand why IU and Taehyung tried to run away from the set

Amidst the multitude of fan hypotheses that are making the rounds on the internet to interpret the song, only a few know that Um Tae-hwa, the director known for Concrete Utopia, has offered clarifications on the idea and purpose of the music video.

The director, Um Tae-hwa, clarified the meaning of the cubes—referring to them as Nemo and Camcorder—in an interview with the South Korean media site OSEN on January 24. According to the filmmaker, Nemo symbolizes the prejudice and discrimination that the main characters encounter daily in our society due to their blindness and inability to hear or speak. Furthermore, Nemo frees the pair from society's tyranny as the cubes devour them.

As the behind-the-scenes videos have already surfaced online, fans have praised the two gifted artists for giving it their all during production. In addition to being dressed in shabby clothes for the shoot, IU and Taehyung had to run for seven hours to finish filming. Furthermore, the artists' situation still needs to be improved by South Korea's severe winter, which averages temperatures below zero.

While IU and Taehyung received praise from fans for their unwavering devotion to their profession, some attempted to lighten the mood by drawing humorous comparisons between those seven hours running and the seven members of BTS. Nevertheless, the admiration and respect the fans felt for IU and Taehyung were evident in all those X posts.

However, there is always hope for IU because she acknowledged in her handwritten track introduction that some refer to this as an age of immense hatred. It doesn't appear to be a love-fueled period. She related that, in her experience, hatred is never by itself, not even in its triumphant moments. However, love clings to each other obstinately through its ups and downs, and "Love" will eventually win it all.
