On July 16, 2024, Japan Fanclub released BTS Taehyung's SNACK TIME SEASON 2 - V #4 on their official YouTube channel, Sweet Cheeks PJM. The self-interview video was filmed in collaboration between the Love Me Again singer-songwriter and BTS Official Japan Fanclub.

In the video, Taehyung is seen interviewing his stage persona, V, which displays the artist's two personas chatting. The idol's stage persona, V—who is also called a "Tiger Cub" by his fans—asked Kim Taehyung about his love for photography.

Taehyung, also lovingly known as "Winter Bear" and "TaeTae" by his fans, shared that photography brings him joy, so he often clicks pictures and shares them with his fandom. During the interview, V addresses Taehyung as "Taetae" to maintain a stark distinction between his two personalities.

Furthermore, the Winter Bear singer-songwriter shared that he wishes to become a professional photographer after he concludes his singing career in the future.

"Don't make me blush. I'm not a professional photographer, but I'm going to debut as a photographer after I finish my career as a singer."

Taehyung talks about the type of K-drama he would like to direct

In SNACK TIME SEASON 2 - V #4, the Winter Bear singer-songwriter talks about how art expresses more than words. He added that photography and performance art are some of the few things that help one encapsulate their feelings and share them with the world. He described himself as someone who values actions more than words, similar to how art conveys deeper emotions than words.

"When it comes to art, I think it is something that can express more than words. When I want to speak but can't express myself in words, I think there are things that can be expressed instead of words; whether it's through painting, photography, or performance art. It seems to fit in a bit better with me. With actions rather than words; and I like to hand over something more than words, and I think it feels good."

BTS V then asks the Scenery singer-songwriter about the type of K-drama he would like to direct someday. This was in reference to the idol directing his previous singles' music videos, such as Scenery and Winter Bear. The latter revealed that he believes in a story where a weasel can live happily in a world.

The Scenery singer-songwriter continued that he would love to direct and produce in a K-drama where a weasel can talk and become a family's loving pet.

"Oh, that story... what I'm thinking is.. in fact, weasels can talk, but the weasel becomes a pet weasel in someone's house like a pet dog, and what if the weasel lived there and made many friends and made memories," he said.

Both Taehyung and V concluded the video by wishing each other luck in their future endeavors and dreams.
