BTS’s RM has set a new milestone for K-pop with his music video for "LOST!" being awarded twice at the UK Music Video Awards 2024. On October 24, the UKMVA announced that RM’s video for LOST!, the lead track from his second solo album Right Place, Wrong Person, took home awards for Best Alternative Video – International and Best Production Design in a Video.

This marks a historic first for K-pop, as the UKMVA has been honoring creative music videos since 2008, covering genres like pop, R&B, and dance, while focusing on standout concepts and visual storytelling. The Best Alternative Video – International award highlights original concepts and storytelling, while Best Production Design recognizes artistic and creative visuals.

Directed by French filmmaker Aube Perrie, known for his work with artists like Harry Styles, the LOST! video portrays RM navigating a maze-like world, filled with symbolic and quirky objects that add to the video's mysterious and captivating feel.

The imaginative visuals and storytelling received high praise, impressing viewers with every twist and turn.

This isn’t the only recognition for LOST! – the video also won in the Craft: Cinematography category at the 2024 Berlin Commercial Awards in August. Recently, it scored gold in Direction and Production Design, along with bronze for Cinematography and Color Grading at Germany’s CICLOPE Festival.

RM’s creative vision in LOST! continues to shine, solidifying his place as a global music and visual artist.

BLACKPINK’s Jisoo shared a surprising story from her trainee days!

On January 29, the latest episode of Dex’s Fridge Interview was released on YouTube. During the chat, Dex asked Jisoo if she ever rebelled or broke the rules as a trainee. She confidently replied, “Not at all. The only rebellion I had as a trainee was eating.”

Dex then jokingly imitated her younger self, saying, “I’m perfect, so why are they telling me not to eat? I’m going to eat tteokbokki!”

Jisoo laughed and admitted, “Actually, I was really chubby back then. They kept telling me to lose weight, but I always said, ‘No, I need to eat. I like myself chubby.’”

She even recalled a moment with YG Entertainment’s founder, Yang Hyun Suk:
“The boss told me to lose weight, and I responded like that. He just walked away, thinking, ‘She’s a weird one.’ I literally said, ‘No! I like myself chubby!’”

Jisoo then revealed that after she debuted, she naturally lost weight. She added, “Later, after I debuted and naturally lost weight, he was like, ‘You didn’t lose weight when I told you to, but now that you debuted, you did.’”

Fans are loving Jisoo’s confidence and honesty! Meanwhile, her full interview on Dex’s Fridge Interview is now available on YouTube.
