I wonder what type of video we'll be getting with Park Chan-Wook behind the camera. Most of his movies are pretty weird and "non-mainstream", so we might get something really out of the ordinary with this MV - in a good way (I hope).
I would be very surprised if the mv isn't so odd and weird. It's his first mv to direct too. He and his brother worked on it for some time before July.
I like his visionary alot especially in Sympathy for Lady Vengeance!!! OMG I just figured out what the "V" could stand for! VENGEANCE! His Vengeance Trilogy movies!! That's definitely it!
