On March 24, BTS' Jimin released his first solo debut album, FACE, and premiered the Like Crazy music video, which created an uproar among ARMYs.
As stated by Jimin earlier, Like Crazy is a synth-pop song and describes the song as about the painful feeling of losing oneself while desperately searching for a loved one in a utopian or dreamy world. Even being aware of the utopian world the person is living in, he intended to live in the dream forever.
The ARMYs took to social media as soon as the Like Crazy music video was out to share their reactions. While some loved the visuals, attire, and vocals of the BTS’ Jimin, others could not stop creating different theories that the Promise singer might have included in his video.
“Masterpiece by Jimin”: ARMYs can’t get enough of Jimin’s Like Crazy music video
As soon as Jimin’s Like Crazy music video was released for the fans, it topped the No. 1 position in 90 countries on the iTunes chart worldwide. The idol created this record within two hours and four hours of its release. Fans from all over the world are encouraging each other to stream it.
The hashtags Omg Park Jimin and Jimins, Give Me A Good Ride, Like Crazy music video out today, Jimin Face Debut, and Jimin on Fallon have been trending on Twitter since the release of Jimin’s album FACE and the official Like Crazy music video.
While many fans felt speechless after watching the Like Crazy music video, others felt that the idol was testing their patience by not playing the song and music video on a loop. Fans want to stream the song manually to avoid freezing YouTube views and Spotify streams.
Take a look at how fans are reacting to the Like Crazy music video:
In an interview with Rolling Stone, BTS's Jimin also discussed the real inspiration behind his Like Crazy music video. The 2011 American romantic film Like Crazy served as his inspiration. After watching the film, he anticipated it to be sweet, but he was surprised to find that it was heavily influenced by the dark reality and depiction of a breakup.
The idol further revealed:
“When we were talking about the main track, this movie suddenly came to my mind and I thought it would fit well with the kind of song they wanted to make”
The idol watched the movie again and incorporated different parts of the film as inspiration into his song.
ARMYs previously guessed that the film Like Crazy would inspire his upcoming album FACE and its main track from the letter he sent to his fans previously. They were elated to see short dialogs from the films at the beginning and end of the track.
Fans were also delighted at the fact that the idol was able to convey what he wanted through his Like Crazy song. Meanwhile, director of the film Drake Doremus also reposted Jimin’s letter when he talked about the movie that inspired his song and Like Crazy music video.
The idol also revealed that he attempted to use the dance in the Like Crazy music video to convey the emotions he had after seeing the film. He said he was worried about how the fans would react as he showcased ambiguous and subtle emotions in a sexy way.
