Cooking TNT 1

0:00 So "REDRED" is our lead single that's dropping on April 20th

0:04 and this will be the opening track for the album that is dropping on May 4th

0:08 And you can feel it from the name It's explosive

0:12 We wanted to pop out

0:14 When we drop the album

0:15 we wanted to drop it like a bomb

0:19 It's energetic, it's a statement

0:22 Whoa, that stinks

0:23 I think the energy is best explained while you watch the video

0:47 It seems like it's mostly female voices so it's kind of a cool, little spooky element in a way

0:53 that I think adds dimension to the song

0:57 -It's actually me who's singing that -Yeah

1:00 Not a female artist

1:04 Thank you, great I'll take it as a compliment

1:07 Oh, sorry

1:09 No, no, thank you so much

1:12 We worked hard for it

1:13 Actually, in this room, he recorded the demo

1:17 -Yeah, it's right here -Right here

1:19 Right here

1:22 ♪ Pumpin up, in Seoul ♪

1:49 It gave the song a little...

1:52 taste to it

1:55 And I feel like the rough textures that we put into the song

2:00 which also matches the visuals of our album cover and album photos

2:06 We dressed up as minimal as possible as natural as possible

2:13 Also, the makeup is very light the makeup that we were putting on

2:16 so you can see all the texture on our face on our skin

2:21 And that kind of matches the whole vibe

2:23 and it gets cohesive like that

2:26 And we also tried to express this kind of feelings through a lot of people

2:31 Actually, our music video also contains this much people

2:37 It's basically about chasing us

2:41 and we're running around

2:43 -Yeah -And they're like...

2:44 -We ran a lot -Yeah

2:46 -We ran for like four days -Four straight days of running, bro

2:57 [Keep running, keep hiding, then run again]

3:01 So, what are we doing today?! [Keep running, keep hiding, then run again]

3:05 Music video meeting!

3:11 (JUHOON) Ugh, where do we shoot?

3:14 -Where do we shoot? -Where do we shoot?

3:16 (KEONHO) I'm already filming

3:17 (JUHOON) No, not that

3:19 Tomorrow

3:20 Music video meeting

3:21 (KEONHO) These are pants!

3:24 Are these pants?

3:25 -(KEONHO) You're the note-taker? -(MARTIN) Yeah, I'll do it

3:27 Why are you stealing my job?

3:28 Then you do it

3:29 -I don't want to -You didn't bring your laptop

3:31 I didn't bring my laptop

3:32 You didn't bring your laptop!

3:36 -I... -Move the popcorn

3:37 -You're going to the bathroom? -It's covering my face / -I want water...

3:40 (KEONHO) Why does your face matter anyway?

3:42 -SEONGHYEON -Yeah?

3:44 That was a lie [Sensing danger]

3:46 I think your face is very important to this group

3:50 You know what I mean?

3:52 Nice

3:52 [Take that]

3:54 That's nice

3:56 First, what concept do we want?

3:59 (KEONHO) Nothing

4:01 Keep running

4:04 [Keep running, keep hiding, then run again Camera work like 2010s or selfie]

4:05 (JUHOON) Selfie... selfie... [Shoot with a phone]

4:07 Shoot with a phone...

4:08 -"Use iPhone 17 Pro" -iPhone...

4:10 [Shoot on iPhone selfie mode with KT]

4:12 [Shoot on iPhone selfie mode with KT] [*Specific]

4:13 Exactly [Shoot on iPhone selfie mode with KT] [*Specific]

4:15 The best choice for iPhone?

4:16 -KT! -KT!

4:17 (JUHOON) I like POV

4:19 (JAMES) Yeah

4:21 POV's nice too

4:22 Do you think we could attach it to our foot while running?

4:25 Right on our shoe

4:27 like this

4:29 and film us running

4:31 Then it'll look like we're being shot from below

4:33 It's probably possible with cuts

4:36 We can just shoot from different angles, right?

4:38 Or maybe we could attach cameras to different parts of our bodies

4:41 -Yeah, let's go with that -With camera angles...

4:43 The angle's got to carry this [Butt shot]

4:44 Shoot us running [Huh?]

4:45 [Chest shot]

4:46 [Forehead shot]

4:52 -But if we keep running... -I...

4:53 What I'm worried about is

4:56 now that I think about it it might feel too similar to "GO!"

4:58 -That's true -I...

5:00 Right

5:00 In "GO!" it was just us running

5:03 -but this time, everyone runs -Instead of running being the main thing

5:05 I think having a huge crowd should be the focus

5:07 -Exactly -Yeah, I think...

5:10 Us running like this

5:11 -and people chasing us from behind should be the main focus -Okay

5:16 -That's it -And no one

5:18 should be filming us from the side either

5:21 So we should actually

5:24 -Shoot it -hold the camera ourselves

5:26 Or even if we're not running

5:28 people could gather toward us

5:31 bump into us

5:33 and start falling over behind us

5:36 Yeah, that's...

5:38 That's the main focus

5:41 Like...

5:42 You...

5:44 What was it again...?

5:45 -One person should... like... -Multiple?

5:48 Yeah, multiple people...

5:49 All making different gestures...

5:54 This was made by layering

5:58 thousands of photos into one

6:00 (JAMES) But that would be

6:02 hard to express on video

6:05 Or we could use that many people and props

6:09 instead of relying on editing

6:10 -No editing? -That's the best way

6:13 Even if we just gather a few people from the company

6:16 we could probably get a decent number, right?

6:17 (JAMES) You know that thing

6:19 when a car drifts and you only see the wheels...

6:24 Like this, and...

6:26 Imagine your ears are wheels [Explaining very passionately...]

6:27 Your ears are drifting [Explaining very passionately...]

6:30 (JUHOON) This is hard to follow

6:36 [Got it]

6:38 Wait, it's not bad [Meeting is over]

6:40 -Not bad -This is nice [Meeting is over]

6:45 Film him

6:50 [8:00 Olympic Park, 10:00 Depart (2 hours) 10:30 Donui-dong, Jongno, 12:00 Depart (1.5 hours) Eat lunch, 1:00-3:00 Olympic Park]

7:02 -Let's hurry and film -I think...

7:03 -Let's quickly shoot something, and... -Let's go get McMorning right now

7:06 McMorning! [Sudden switch]

7:07 -Didn't we say we were getting McMorning? -Or Popeyes morning

7:10 (Crew) You're the ones who woke up late

7:11 We were supposed to wake up at seven [*Current time: 9 am]

7:12 and stop by for McMorning [*Current time: 9 am]

7:14 Come on, we've got to stay flexible

7:17 (Crew) Okay, let's shoot first

7:19 Stand over there, KEONHO

7:21 Be the subject

7:24 [Subject]

7:27 [Setting up the phone]

7:30 D-don't connect it!

7:31 I didn't

7:34 Man, this is tough

7:35 [*He's still the subject]

7:36 It's not working on the camera [*He's still the subject]

7:40 It's flying super slow

7:43 -The wind's blowing -It's chill...

7:48 Get past it [Another subject]

7:52 (MARTIN) Whoa...

7:54 It's going to bite him

7:56 [Happy subjects]

8:31 The audio's a masterpiece

8:37 Even though it's so tiny

8:38 [Masterpiece]

8:45 [*Low-key embarrassed]

8:46 Shall we? [*Low-key embarrassed]

8:47 -Oh, one more... -Let's get a few more takes

8:50 We need safety takes

8:52 Running?

8:53 Yeah

8:54 Really?

8:55 I wish we ran a bit more from the side

9:03 (JAMES) Can you hear it?

9:06 We can hear it!

9:08 Get behind it!

9:11 Hey!

9:14 Keep going!

9:17 Three, two, one

9:27 (SEONGHYEON) We all run so weird

9:30 We're running like this

9:32 I think it needs a bit more urgency

9:35 You mean go faster?

9:36 You shake it more

9:38 Oh

9:39 Like this?

9:40 -I hope someone rolls down the hill -I don't think zooming in works

9:43 I think just setting it up works even less

9:47 Basically

9:49 it doesn't feel urgent

9:50 Does "TNT" need to feel urgent?

9:52 -A bit of urgency... -I don't feel urgent

9:56 I don't feel urgent either

9:58 -Right? / -Then how should we do it? -Ooh

10:01 [Team Urgent] [Team Not Urgent]

10:02 -You're just saying the same thing -Bring it on [Team Urgent] [Team Not Urgent]

10:04 Nooo, stand here

10:06 And when I do this you're supposed to high five me

10:14 [Loses motivation]

10:15 [*Subject again]

10:16 Nice, nice! [*Subject again]

10:20 (SEONGHYEON) You try it over there too

10:22 (JUHOON) Doesn't it feel too flat?

10:23 (SEONGHYEON) Really? I like it

10:25 [Really...?]

10:26 Ahahaha!

10:31 [...What about me?]

10:36 This looks so weird

10:37 I think the camera needs to move

10:39 -Yeah -Really?

10:40 -Isn't this fine? -This feels like "What You Want"

10:42 ♪ Pumpin up, in Seoul ♪

10:44 [Making his case]

10:45 ♪ Trancin all night long ♪ [Making his case]

10:51 It's too awkward

10:52 It's a wrap!

10:53 It's over for "TNT," so let's wrap it up!

10:55 I think we should grab McMorning and think after [Genius]

10:58 [Tehehe]

10:59 -You're just going to leave that maple syrup there? -I'll probably get McMorning

11:04 First... [Dummy]

11:05 [*Next subject]

11:07 Here... [*Next subject]

11:10 [Picked again]

11:15 You need to run too

11:16 Okay

11:22 ♪ Sixteen, still just clueless kids ♪

11:26 (SEONGHYEON) Wait, hold on...

11:28 Again

11:30 Okay

11:30 -Here we go -Yeah, ready

11:44 -Let's get a handheld shot -We're running again?

11:51 Ugh, my pants almost...

11:52 almost came off

11:54 Why so happy? [LOL]

11:56 -Why do you look so happy? -Happy?

12:17 We were supposed to film in Jongno first then come here

12:23 But since we came here first...

12:26 I can't think of anything

12:27 There's no point in being here

12:30 Let's go somewhere else, quick

12:39 [Serious mood]

12:44 Now that I think about it it might actually be fun to do it like that

12:48 (MARTIN) Didn't you say you didn't want TNT in the video?

12:52 Not in the video...

12:53 He wants to

12:55 -The making... -shoot the process of making it [JAMES' other idea]

12:57 -Using TNT... -Point of view [JAMES' other idea]

12:59 TNT... from our point of view... [JAMES' other idea]

13:02 Then there was no point coming here

13:07 Yeah

13:09 Considering the actual music video

13:10 I think the first one is better [What they've filmed so far]

13:15 I don't know...

13:18 Now that I think about it

13:21 with the chasing concept

13:23 there's not much to shoot

13:26 If it's about making TNT, we could at least

13:29 go to a stationery shop nearby

13:31 buy a bunch of random stuff

13:35 and make something weird...

13:38 I think the original idea

13:40 fits the song better

13:43 I think this...

13:44 I can kind of picture it

13:50 Since we're already here

13:51 let's just test a few angles

13:54 Meanwhile, three of us can go to a stationery shop, buy materials

13:59 and shoot the second idea back at the dorm

14:02 Red string, green string, black pepper... [Team Stationery Shop]

14:06 [Team Shooting]

14:06 We ended up having the meeting outside [Team Shooting]

14:09 This is Young Creator Crew

14:12 So, then...

14:14 [First shot: JUHOON's ear]

14:21 (MARTIN) You should only twist your upper body

14:23 Don't turn your head

14:39 Was that too shaky?

14:41 Let's run a little less

14:42 Make it more stable?

14:43 Just enough to capture the vibe

14:50 He's trying hard

14:56 Oh! I know

14:58 Wait a sec

15:06 Will this work...?

15:07 [This is sus]

15:10 -A support -This?

15:12 I'll stick this in your pants

15:18 [Dead serious]

15:21 [Hmm...]

15:21 Like this? [Hmm...]

15:22 (MARTIN) Since we've set it up let's shoot this too

15:24 This...

15:33 [*2 fanboys]

15:36 I think the phone's going to fall [*2 fanboys]

15:45 [Maintenance work]

15:47 Try running, walking

15:49 Just do whatever you want

15:50 Okay

15:51 Try going into a store too

15:57 (KEONHO) He went inside somewhere [Haha]

15:58 (MARTIN) For real?

15:59 [Missed the fancam]

16:00 Where'd he go? [Missed the fancam]

16:16 I went into Photoism

16:17 [Hehe]

16:22 [LOL]

16:23 What? [LOL]

16:25 [Daiso]

16:29 (JAMES) Whoa

16:30 Nice

16:31 (SEONGHYEON) Do we even need this?

16:35 Do we not...?

16:37 First, we need a board

16:38 Yeah

16:41 Excuse me...

16:42 Do you have anything like an acrylic board?

16:44 We don't have acrylic boards

16:47 Okay

16:49 They don't have acrylic boards

16:54 Wouldn't something like this work?

16:56 I think it could

16:57 This might be fine

16:59 [Acrylic container]

17:01 -Should we just go with this? -Yeah, let's go with this

17:04 In case we mess up

17:07 and have to reshoot

17:10 [Wink]

17:12 Backup [+Backup acrylic container]

17:14 Should we grab one of these too?

17:20 [Cable adapter]

17:23 Better than black pepper, right?

17:25 -This works, right? -Yeah, I think so

17:27 Should we get one? [8 hand warmers]

17:30 We need our hands to look a bit messy

17:33 (SEONGHYEON) Yeah

17:34 [Mechanical pencil lead]

17:37 (JAMES) What's this?

17:38 -Clay -(SEONGHYEON) Clay

17:40 Let's get one

17:42 Clay?

17:43 Just get it [Clay]

17:51 Here we go [Second shot: MARTIN's foot]

18:20 [Team Stationery Shop returns]

18:41 Clay...

18:47 Test shoot one

18:53 (JAMES) Careful

19:01 Oh, it wasn't recording

19:02 Hey, ah!

19:03 [Hehe]

19:06 It kind of looks like poop, right?

19:12 My poop is melting...

19:16 Oh wait, yeah

19:19 (SEONGHYEON) How do you spell "strobing"?

19:25 "-ing," yeah

19:26 Strobe light

19:29 [Lighting setup is complete]

19:31 -With sound too -What? [Lighting setup is complete]

19:33 I think it'll be fine without the audio [Lighting setup is complete]

19:49 Should I wear this backpack?

19:50 Nice

19:51 Oh!

19:52 He could wear it too

19:54 KEONHO?

19:56 You want to wear this?

20:00 I need to grab the goggles

20:02 Where are they?

20:03 -Where are they? -In the car

20:05 -Go grab them from the car -Okay

20:21 It's KEONHO

20:31 I can turn this off, right?

20:43 This can pass through acrylic

20:47 Using two layers of acrylic, so...

20:55 -Nice -MARTIN [LOL]

20:56 -The tape's ready -You grew eyebrows

20:57 I grew eyebrows?

20:59 Hold on

21:06 We secretly made TNT behind our mom's back

21:10 Making TNT

21:12 -Thumbnail -For the thumbnail

21:16 Okay!

21:18 Take one, let's get started!

21:36 No, why would you add that in?

21:39 Swish, swoosh

21:40 Swish, swoosh

21:41 The lighter

21:49 [Take 1, done]

21:51 What do we do?

21:53 I mean...

21:53 I think we need something more

21:56 I think it'd be nice if everyone had a role

22:00 I'll keep bringing stuff in

22:03 You guys go [MARTIN (18) Brings stuff, gets roasted and sets off the explosion]

22:04 "That's not it!" [MARTIN (18) Brings stuff, gets roasted and sets off the explosion]

22:06 Then during my part, I'll go "Move!" [MARTIN (18) Brings stuff, gets roasted and sets off the explosion]

22:10 -go "Pop out" then leave -Okay [MARTIN (18) Brings stuff, gets roasted and sets off the explosion]

22:13 What do I do?

22:14 I'll keep using fire [KEONHO (17) Fire guy, JAMES's assistant]

22:17 Then when JAMES goes... [KEONHO (17) Fire guy, JAMES's assistant]

22:19 [KEONHO (17) Fire guy, JAMES's assistant]

22:20 -Then you go... -I'll... [KEONHO (17) Fire guy, JAMES's assistant]

22:22 use fire... [KEONHO (17) Almost the fire guy, JAMES's assistant] [JAMES (20) Fire guy, hires KEONHO]

22:23 and this [KEONHO (17) Almost the fire guy, JAMES's assistant] [JAMES (20) Fire guy, hires KEONHO]

22:26 Oh, okay [KEONHO (17) Almost the fire guy, JAMES's assistant] [JAMES (20) Fire guy, hires KEONHO]

22:27 -And then... -Now move

22:28 Every now and then, come up and do this [JUHOON (18) Manager]

22:31 Inspect what we're making [JUHOON (18) Manager]

22:33 -Like, "Are they doing it right?" -And smack your lips [JUHOON (18) Manager, habit: smacking his lips]

22:37 You use this

22:39 to pour this [SEONGHYEON (17) Princess, "does this with this, like this"]

22:41 and do this, like this [SEONGHYEON (17) Princess, "does this with this, like this"]

22:43 -Me? -Yeah [SEONGHYEON (17) Princess, "does this with this, like this"]

22:44 Okay, let's go!

22:45 -Go -Oh, okay

22:46 -Let's go -You ready?

22:58 (SEONGHYEON) Ugh, that stinks

23:00 It smells so bad

23:02 [Monitoring]

23:03 We need to clear this up a little [Monitoring]

23:07 This doesn't look like we're making TNT at all

23:11 (KEONHO) Should we watch a TNT video?

23:13 (MARTIN) But

23:14 if we add gunpowder

23:17 it'll cover the top anyway

23:20 What if we do this instead?

23:22 Instead of using an acrylic board

23:25 we could use a sesame oil can or a Spam can

23:28 put stuff in there, and hammer it

23:31 Good idea

23:33 [CORTIS teabag]

23:35 Isn't this okay?

23:36 Isn't it too big and dark?

23:38 It should be smaller so we can see the surroundings

23:41 -I think it works metaphorically... -Why don't we just use that?

23:44 This? Oh, not bad

23:46 -I think this works too -I like this

23:48 Then, if it spills over the side... [Switching containers]

23:50 Ugh... [Switching containers]

24:07 What are you doing?

24:19 [Mmm]

24:22 -Want some? -The vibe we were going for...

24:24 Can we eat this?

24:27 It might be expired

24:28 [Flinch]

24:30 Look

24:31 -No, we just bought it -It's not expired?

24:38 Please get this on camera

24:43 Isn't this done?

24:46 -Want some? -It's good

24:47 -One bite -It's good

24:49 Should we just go with the first version and scrap this?

24:54 Let's at least see it through

24:56 -Let's do one last take -(JUHOON) Final for real

24:59 (SEONGHYEON) Let's hurry up

25:02 Should...

25:03 Should we wait like five minutes?

25:07 -Let's just get it over with -(SEONGHYEON) Let's hurry up and wrap this up

25:09 Our song's shorter than five minutes

25:13 [Gloves on]

25:15 [Hats on]

25:19 [Photoshoot flex, done]

25:21 This is easy

25:22 Let's just do it according to plan

25:24 What?

25:25 -It didn't record again -(SEONGHYEON) Ugh, why are you calling me?

25:28 We had everything set up

25:31 Hello?

25:33 I'm calling to inquire about a door lock

25:36 Oh, wrong number

25:38 (JAMES) I don't think that's right

25:40 Okay

25:43 [LOL time]

25:45 Why are you calling him? [LOL time]

25:46 [LOL time]

25:51 Why is he talking about a camel shoot (?)

25:54 Camel shoot... [He probably misheard "door lock"]

25:57 Let's hurry up [The end of LOL time]

25:59 [New item: Koko]

26:01 (JUHOON) One, two, three

26:19 [Hand warmer powder]

26:22 [Hand warmer powder + soda]

26:30 [Hand warmer powder + soda + foot cleanser]

26:32 [Hand warmer powder + soda + foot cleanser + Buldak sauce]

26:37 We messed up! [Hand warmer powder + soda + foot cleanser + Buldak sauce]

26:38 Ugh, the smell... [Hand warmer powder + soda + foot cleanser + Buldak sauce]

26:41 (JUHOON) We can do it

26:43 Ugh, no, I can't

26:46 (JUHOON) The sauce was too much

26:48 -Someone poured sauce on my hand -The sauce...

26:51 On my hand, like this [LOL]

26:53 That was me

26:56 I can't see, take off my sunglasses

26:59 The sink

27:02 Wait, who's got hands?

27:05 -(JAMES) I've got hands -(JUHOON) We've all got hands...

27:09 Please...

27:11 Help me...

27:13 Oh, it's not bad

27:15 (SEONGHYEON) Is it okay?

27:16 It's not bad!

27:18 -Come on! -That sauce...

27:20 Whose sauce is that? Come on

27:26 This...

27:27 Let's just trash it

27:31 Dump everything in here

27:33 But we can't just throw the whole thing in

27:35 -But...! -Click left

27:38 [Gasp]

27:39 Ugh [Sauce]
