The distribution of BOYNEXTDOOR's new song 'Count To Love' has started, and the music video has also been released. 'Count To Love' is their first original title song in Japan, featuring a unique and powerful rhythm created by guitar sounds and energetic drums, making it an addictive song that sticks in your ears after just one listen. Pay attention to the lyrics where numbers appear here and there. It is a relatable real love song that humorously and delicately depicts the genuine emotions of lovers. In the music video, BOYNEXTDOOR, who has become the MC of a dating reality show, monitors couples who are awkward on screen and reacts to them. It shows scenes of them chasing after couples who are actually fighting and holding strategy meetings to help them reconcile. The director is Lee Hangyul, who also worked on the music video for 'IF I SAY, I LOVE YOU.' The male role of the couple this time is played by Riku Itagaki, an actor who is extremely popular among Generation Z. This is his first appearance in a music video by an overseas artist. It is also the first time a Japanese actor has appeared in a BOYNEXTDOOR music video. Riku Itagaki commented that working in Korea with a Korean crew was fresh and stimulating as an actor. He noted that despite their hard schedule, BOYNEXTDOOR was very energetic and powerful, and he was pleased with how fluent they were in Japanese. He felt relaxed and enjoyed the filming thanks to this. He hopes to have an opportunity to communicate in Korean next time. Please enjoy this comically and frustratingly depicted music video.
