However, towards the end, it is revealed that V has created this reality in his head and imagines all of it as an artist with an underlying pain of loneliness.

One user wrote on X, "Portraying the tortured, lonely artist by literally sculpting and chiseling away his life, trying to create something so perfect... only to lose himself in the process and ultimately have to face reality. I love you Kim Taehyung."
"Can we talk about how insanely talented Kim Taehyung is as an actor to be able to so clearly communicate the emotions of this scene with just his facial expressions alone- absolutely NO dialogue just the emotions he can put in his eyes??? give him an Oscar," added another.
One user commented, "This song feels like a hug. You sing through your voice and end up touching my soul every time. Kim Taehyung you are truly an incredible man and I can never appreciate you enough. Even stringing words into sentences can't do justice to what you are and the masterpiece you create."
Another fan wrote, "The fear and hurt in the sculpted Taehyung's face when he realized he and the girl were indeed not real, after touching the scar/symbol behind his ear. OH KIM TAEHYUNG! THIS IS CINEMA!!!"
Meanwhile, V had enlisted for his mandatory military service in 2023. His discharge date is set for June 10, 2025. The decision by BTS to enlist in the military helped avert a sticky situation for South Korea's government.
