The YouTube video captured Dallas Liu and Elizabeth Yu walking the red carpet of PaleyFest 2024.
For those unfamiliar, PaleyFest is the nation's premier TV festival, gathering television's brightest stars and biggest names at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood for exclusive screenings and cast conversations that delve into the creative process behind favorite shows.
Netflix’s Avatar: The Last Airbender was scheduled to premiere on April 14, 2024, and the interviewer caught up with the co-stars on the red carpet for a brief chat.
The video description reads—
"What do Kylo Ren, Zuko, and BTS have in common? Dallas Liu! I had the immense pleasure of interviewing the cast and creatives behind Netflix’s Avatar The Last Airbender at PaleyFest! It’s my first time doing press for my own channel! Follow along for the next interviews with the rest of the cast! Plus, Zuko tells us his BTS bias!"
During the Paley Fest interview with Sabeen Faheem, Dallas Liu elaborated on his music taste and BTS biases. The interviewer, acknowledging the actor's preference for V and Jungkook as his favorite, referred to themselves as Team V and Jungkook with a fist bump.
The interviewer proceeded by inquiring about his favorite BTS song or the one he was currently listening to. After a brief moment of contemplation, the actor responded—
"Um... One Day, that's what I'm going to say!"
This particular track is featured on BTS's 2014 album Skool Luv Affair. Given that BTS debuted in 2013, Just One Day originates from one of their earliest albums. Hence, the actor added—
"Yes, from the very beginning."
Dallas and Elizabeth talked about the people who inspired them in the industry, including Asian American actors and martial arts actors, highlighting their collaborative and camaraderie-filled relationships. They also discussed their paths to movies and the influences that shaped their careers.
