Tae’s hairstylist, Mujin, is interviewed for Harper’s Bazaar Korea. He talks with the magazine about Tae’s beautiful blue hair, noting the process to achieve this ethereal look. He mentions the story and concept of the pictorial were planned in advance, with the male, coming of age, romantic drama “Call Me By Your Name” (CMBYN) being an inspiration.
Article snippet:
🗣️: In this <Bazaar> pictorial, V's unique transformation of blue hair drew attention. Why did you choose this color?
Mujin: After checking the overall story, design, and concept of the pictorial planned by 'Bazaar' in advance, the mise-en-scène of “Call Me by Your Name.”
Mujin also references the LGBTQ+ movie “Blue is the Warmest Color,” a female coming of age movie similar to CMBYN, and we can discern this because he says “warmest” then ‘blue color’ is placed in quotations, indicating he’s citing material that inspired their pictorial. His exact words are, “The warmest ‘blue color’ with a European sensibility rather than a specially decorated feel.” A Google search of “warmest blue color” will showcase the movie, and protagonist Emma’s blue hair color.

Of course, this isn’t the first time Tae has mentioned his fondness for the movie CMBYN. On May 31, 2019, on the heels of pride month, he uploaded to the BTS Twitter page a snippet of him playing the movie’s OST on the piano.
On June 9, 2019, he recommended the movie to Hobi during a live.

On June 9, 2020 (during pride month), Tae read Elio’s father’s impactful speech on a live:

And as an aside, I always found it interesting and noteworthy that the very next day, after reading Elio’s father’s monologue about living life on your terms and no one else’s, Tae responded to a fan on Weverse by saying, “I want to be happy too🥺”

And on September 4, 2023, an article was posted on Weverse. Within the contents of the article, “Rainy Days”, a song from Tae’s solo debut album “Layover”, is noted to have followed the “tomato girl summer” trend, which was inspired by movies such as “Call Me By Your Name.”

I’m putting my hair in a braid for a few hours. That way, when I take it out, I have beautiful beach waves. #hair #hairstyles #hairstylist #hairtransformation #braid #braids #braidstyles #braidedhairstyles #waves #waveshair #style #styleinspo #styleblogger #stylist #stylish #transform #transformation #inspiration #inspirational #inspire #inspired #blog #blogger #bloggerstyle #bloggersofinstagram #bloggerlife #ig #igdaily #igers #igotthis https://www.instagram.com/p/B7tZj5rpZwB/?igshid=j5g4h3ailfzw
