BTS’s Jin Shocks Fans By Doing His Own Stunts In Latest MV
We all know BTS‘s Jin is incredibly multitalented, from singing to acting to cooking to dancing (contrary to his opinion).
Yet, he has another skill.
Recently, Jin released his solo album, Happy, including the title track “Running Wild” and its MV.
The concept in the MV is the world’s end. Jin originally planned to run in the MV but ultimately drove for a portion in a Ford Mustang. In the music video, Jin is featured speeding as he attempts to escape.
🐹 : I went very simple and thought I should just run but it felt odd to just run. You all grow old you all pant when you run. Anyway i began to think I should drive instead

now that jin confirmed that running wild mv was rlly supposed to end with world destruction, i genuinely think that jin's an alien that chose to stay with us on this earth and the consequence is the world ending but jin chose to stay with us no matter what out of love pic.twitter.com/UbkrtAXzD9

While Jin’s driving might be considered “dangerous,” stunt drivers would often be hired for such a task.
Wow the person whose car was used in the mv just commented on Reddit that Jin really drove himself pic.twitter.com/Ha5LuGK8GM

Yet, newly released behind-the-scenes footage from the director revealed Jin was behind the wheel, even during scenes where he “drifted.”

In a new interview on LeeMujin Service, Jin revealed that he was directed to drive like he was “dodging something,” but the director only wanted him to pretend. The director was also shocked by Jin’s driving and concerned they could get hurt.
Jin imitating how he drove the car in the mv but in tiny cute 😭😭😭 and then saying the director was screaming like he was dying and jin arguing back 🤣 please
"No, I wanted you to pretend!!"
"But it looks more real this way right?"
"Oh no, help!"

Additionally, the owner of the vintage Ford Mustang that Jin used in the “Running Wild” MV in L.A. said that his tires were “a little extra roasted” after the filming. However, he reassured that it was okay because he was bought new ones.
