And while PSY’s music videos often center around high-energy dancing and goofy scenes…

Many fans couldn’t help but develop clever theories surrounding the music video for “That That.” Because of some striking resemblances to Suga’s music video for “Daechwita,” as Agust D…

Fans have come up with a compelling theory that “That That” may parallel “Daechwita,” indicating that this is PSY’s attempt to distance himself from “Gangnam Style,” a song whose success is definitely long-lasting.

But in a recent behind-the-scenes video of the filming of the music video for “That That,” PSY and Suga proved just how much work went into filming the fun music video.

For instance, PSY kept reshooting one part of the video where he went from dancing with one group to running to join in on the dance with another group. He kept redoing the scene, wanting it to be perfect.

And to film PSY and Suga’s iconic “slapping scene,” PSY even had to check that the car window wouldn’t break, so he could properly get into character without worrying.

But one of the most aesthetic scenes in the music video wasn’t actually achieved through PSY and Suga’s hard work.

In one of the iconic scenes in the music video, PSY and Suga pose while standing on top of the car. And while the shot would have been aesthetic on its own, a flock of birds happened to fly behind them while they were filming.

The music video producer even commented on the fortunate timing as the birds flew past.

And PSY and Suga themselves couldn’t deny the impact the birds unintentionally had in making the scene even more cinematic.

And Suga suggests that the birds even add meaning to the music video because of PSY’s music video “Bird,” released nine years ago.
