5. The title is a nod to the 2011 American romance drama film Like Crazy, which Jimin said he was inspired by.
6. The video begins and ends with dialogues also inspired by the film rather than directly taken from it. Voice actors Shelby Young and Joe Brodie imitated the original actors.

8. Jimin’s inclusion of a chair might also be due to Like Crazy.
that chair is his first work too (this is jimin first album) and she keep call it as "her chair"/ "my chair" bc that what she uses when she's doing her work/stuffs (and jimin participated at writing his album songs, his works) idk if this makes sense🥹😭

9. The subtle appearance of water might be a reference to the final scene in Like Crazy.
Ah the last scene in the movie Jimin said inspired Like Crazy was in shower so the scenes from teaser ARE involving water 😯 pic.twitter.com/MgH4XQVqZR
