Last year, BTS‘s V guested on fellow idol-actor IU‘s show IU’s Palette to promote his debut solo album Layover. During it, she asked him if he wanted to continue acting, although he has only appeared in K-Drama Hwarang: The Poet Warrior Youth alongside his now-friends Park Seo Joon and ZE:A‘s Park Hyung Sik.

V confirmed he wanted to continue acting. So, she asked what genre he wanted to try, to which he replied, “Thriller.”

IU: Do you have any plans for your acting career in the future?

V: I do.

IU: What kind of piece would you like to try?

V: Thriller!

Flashforward about four months later…

IU released her pre-release single “Love wins all” and its music video, which was really a five-minute short film. She stars as the lead alongside V in this dystopian sci-fi thriller.
