'BTS' RM has caught the attention of experts around the world.
RM's 'LOST!' music video has been nominated for the German 'Ciclope Festival' music video category and the 'UKMVA 2024'.
'Ciclope Festival' is an international film festival in the advertising and entertainment sector. Every year, creative industry authorities select and announce the best works and people in each field.
'LOST!' has been nominated for four music video categories: Direction, Cinematography, Production Design, and Color Grading.
It has also won the British Music Video Awards this year. It has been nominated for three categories: Best Alternative International, Best Production Design, and Best Visual Effects.
V's digital single 'Friends' (2024.3) music video has also been nominated for the Best Pop International category. Jungkook was previously nominated for this award for the first time in K-pop last year for his music video for 'Seven'.
The Sislope Festival will announce the winners on October 10th, and the British Music Video Awards will announce the winners on October 25th.
'Lost!' is the title song of RM's second solo album 'Right Place, Wrong Person' released in May. Billboard and Rolling Stone in the US and NME in the UK selected it as the 'best album'.
RM's documentary film 'RM: Right Place, Wrong Person' is also receiving attention. It was the first K-pop documentary to be invited to the Open Cinema section of the 29th Busan International Film Festival (October 7th).
Open Cinema showcases new works that combine artistry and popularity among the invited works, as well as works that have attracted international attention. RM's film sold out as soon as advance tickets opened on the 24th.
Jungkook released his documentary film 'Jungkook: I Am Still' on the 18th. According to the integrated computer network of the Korea Film Council, the film ranked 5th in the domestic box office.
It has maintained its position in the top ranks. Not only that. It ranked 9th in the box office in both the US and Germany for the 38th week (September 20-22, 2024). The global audience response is hot.
The music video for 'Lost!' was directed by Ober Ferry. He is famous for being the director of pop star Harry Styles. RM appeared as the main character who escapes from the maze of thoughts.
The music video is impressive for its meaningful objects that appear here and there, and its witty directing that irregularly changes the size and proportion of space. It has received a lot of attention since its release.
