Q. When I read your book, it was overflowing with love for BTS.

A. Right. I love BTS so much. I did three shootings with them, and their attitude on the second shooting was better than first one, and their attitude on the third one was better than the second one. Although they are becoming more and more famous, they have even better manners. Since they had a busy schedule, we got to shoot pictorials and videos all day long. It finished at dawn. BTS looked at me and said, “Thank you for working lively and delightfully from dawn to evening without losing your smile.” They said it very sincerely. It was the first time I have received such a gratitude. They are very rare artists in Korea and global who are wonderful and have a good personality. I was proud when BTS topped the chart in the UK. I’ve seen a lot of people being enthusiastic about the Beatles while on a tour of Sir Paul. Now people started comparing BTS to the Beatles, and I think it’s possible. I love you, BTS!

BTS

Like piling snowflakes, I’ve become older and older without noticing and reached that uncle age that you don’t know members’ names of famous idol groups.

However, I know all names of proud BTS.

I’ve done several commercial shootings with them since they are commercial models of one of duty free shops.

Shooting with them has been always fun and exciting since they always work with good manners without change.

At the most recent shooting, we had to proceed shootings for TV and paper on the same day due to their hectic schedules.

Starting in the early morning, the shooting finished after 9PM. After that, they had to shoot the commercial for several hours more.

After the last snap, BTS and I clapped hands with joy as wrapping up the shooting.

Then I heard the words I’ve never heard from any celebrity or model.

“Director, thank you for your hard work shooting until the late night without losing your lively smile.”

This is the power of words that can save or kill a person.

Their small consideration resonated with me deeply, and I became the no. 1 uncle fan of BTS.

사진작가 김명중님 인터뷰 읽고 궁금해져서 책 보니 책 안에도 2페이지 할애해서 애들 칭찬 써두셨넹

진짜 근데 어떻게 저러징 새벽부터 밤까지 종일 촬영하면 기진맥진해서 자기 몸 챙기기도 힘들텐데 작가에게, 그것도 그냥 고맙다가 아니라 저런 내용의 감사인사라니ㅠㅠ pic.twitter.com/aLbq0bhIiS — 꾹타민🍑 (@kooktamin_jk) July 29, 2019
