BTS have once again captured global attention with their music video for 2.0, a track from their album ARIRANG. The visually striking video is packed with cinematic references, most notably a clear homage to the cult Korean film Oldboy, while also weaving in deeper symbolic elements tied to the group’s evolving identity.

BTS pays tribute to Oldboy

One of the most talked-about moments in the video is its recreation of Oldboy’s iconic hallway sequence. The MV opens with the members stepping out of an elevator into a narrow corridor, facing a crowd mirroring the film’s famous one-take fight scene. However, instead of violence, BTS replaces combat with synchronized choreography, turning confrontation into performance.
