While discussing his title track, “Haegeum,” Suga revealed some of the biggest difficulties he faced filming his music video. ARMYs had already found out that the music video’s scenic location was in Thailand, which Suga confirmed during this livestream.
He also added that he originally planned to shoot the video in Korea. But it was hard to discover new places that viewers hadn’t seen in other K-pop clips. However, there was one suitable spot that he had set his sights on, but before he could finish it, his EMOTIONAL Junior, THE SERAFIMShe had already booked him for one of her music videos. So Suga decided to shoot the clip in a new environment in Thailand.
🐱 the background is Thailand! We’ve searched for locations in Korea before, but there aren’t many locations left in Korea that haven’t appeared in other idols’ MVs, the location we had in mind was used by Le Sserafim, so we thought of other locations and then left this place

But filming abroad proved to be quite tricky for the rapper. He admitted that his stamina couldn’t always keep up with the hot climate. He mentioned that the opening scene of the music video where August d stabs a man with chopsticks, it was hard because it was hot and they had to shoot without air conditioning.
🐱 This scene was really difficult. It was over 30 (Celsius) and very hot with no air conditioning and my stamina couldn’t keep up.
