Now, let’s go and find out how the shooting of AKMU’s “HOW PEOPLE MOVE” music video went.

The setting of the “HOW PEOPLE MOVE” music video is in a pretty but mysterious toy store.

The shooting took place in Namyangju very early in the morning even before the sun is up. When CHAN HYUK and SUHYUN entered the studio, all the staff was very surprised to see SUHYUN as she looked so pretty in red hair. It is said that she lost eight kilos by eating healthy and exercising so that she would look better for this album. It is so cute of her for wanting to look pretty to the fans after their long hiatus.

Thanks to a strict regimen of diet and exercise, she was able to pull of anything, but this made it harder for stylists to choose her outfits.

CHAN HYUK was the owner of the toy store. He was held captive tied up by toys just like in the book Gulliver’s Travels. To shoot this scene, CHAN HYUK had to lie still all tied up for more than 30 minutes. He looked quite comfortable lying down, but he said that the acting was difficult. A round of applause to the staff that had to tie up CHAN HYUK’s whole body with wool strings.

CHAN HYUK was tied up with wool strings but SUHYUN got locked up in a miniature set that is barely large enough to squeeze in just one person. It was a miniature set of the toy store, and since it was her only solo scene, SUHYUN did her best to get a good scene. She demonstrated that she is indeed a pro and sat, lay down, kneeled in the tiny miniature set.

When the shooting was coming to a close, everyone was feeling tired. But AKMU brightened up the mood by showing great chemistry that only siblings can. There was no script but they adlibbed their way through, and it was so good that it felt like watching a drama. The staff was so inspired and energized from seeing such a talented duo.

There was another lead character in the music video, and that was the toys.

The toys were going to be created by computer graphics, so AKMU had to imagine them when acting the scenes. AKMU would lift their left or right legs to act as if they are avoiding the attacks of imaginary toys and look up as if watching toy airplanes flying by. They had to act surprised and pretend to be attacked by toys that they can’t even see.

The shooting of “HOW PEOPLE MOVE” music video went smoothly thanks to witty and playful AKMU. Things cannot go wrong when AKMU gives out their refreshing energy.
