On September 23, 2024, BTS member Kim Taehyung shared new photos featuring IU on his Instagram story. The day before, he attended IU’s encore concert for her HEREH World Tour at the Seoul World Cup Stadium.
Following the final performance of her worldwide tour, which kicked off in March 2024, IU was spotted taking pictures backstage with BTS’ Taehyung and j-hope.
In his recent Instagram story, Taehyung included the word “Jihye,”referencing IU’s character from their music video Love wins all, which was released on January 24, 2024. This music video stars Taehyung, also known as V, as the male lead in a short-film-inspired narrative.
The two artists portray star-crossed lovers in a dystopian setting, cherishing their final moments together.
Fans were moved to see the BTS idol mention Jihye in his Instagram story. Additionally, in the Love wins all official MV, Taehyung’s character was named Taejun.
Astute fans speculated that Taehyung was giving a nod to their characters in the MV. One fan expressed their excitement on X:
“Taejun and Jihye reunited”
Others commented on how the BTS singer posed alongside IU, showcasing a distinctive style of hoodie-wearing.
“Military can’t take the babygirl out of him. He’s still my gorgeous babie,”a fan wrote on X.
“Wait till this style of wearing sweatshirts becomes the new trend,”another fan joked.
“‘Love wins all’ MV and this duo is forever gonna remain iconic and unmatched,”another fan said.
Many fans expressed their enthusiastic anticipation for BTS Taehyung’s discharge from military service and future collaborations with IU.
“The duo I never knew I needed! I can’t wait to see them collaborate on more projects in the future,”one fan stated.
“One of the best days of my life… Taejun and Jihye never dies,”another fan noted.
“Two best friends met after a long time; see how cute they look,”another fan wrote.
BTS’ Taehyung and IU’s Love wins all VCR Suggest a Possible Happy Ending
In the narrative of Love wins all, Taehyung’s character, Taejun, is depicted as blind in his right eye. The music video features the pair being pursued by an alien cube within a dystopian backdrop.
They discover a deserted shopping mall and decide to don wedding attire in their last moments together.
Understanding their imminent fate, Taejun and Jihye stage a wedding, sing with joy, and capture their final snapshots in a rundown photobooth. Their fleeting happiness is interrupted when the alien cube finds and hunts them down.
The conclusion of the official MV showcases Taejun and Jihye embracing one another for the last time.
However, the extended VCR of the MV suggests a happier scenario where Taejun and Jihye drive off into the sunset, hinting at a positive outcome. Importantly, IU has never clarified whether Taejun and Jihye survived or if the VCR indicated their journey to the afterlife.
This clip was first unveiled at the KSPO DOME on March 2, 2024, marking the beginning of her world tour.
The VCR was showcased again at IU’s Seoul encore performance on September 22, just before she wrapped up her world tour.
In other news, BTS’ Taehyung enlisted in the military on December 11, 2023, and is expected to be discharged in June 2025, returning alongside his bandmates Namjoon, Jungkook, Jimin, and SUGA.
