[Day of filming performance video of 3J's
Butter (feat. Megan Thee Stallion)] -The music will keep playing naturally
-Oh, it'll flow like ending credits?! We can do it or have the video playing
there and pull back the camera
[Discussing how to end the video] It didn't look bad on the monitor, but -Yes, it needs to be cool
-Yes Kind of slide over
[Hobi comes up with the idea for
the monitoring screen to be the ending] [Dance together to make sure
their steps match] Don't you have to pass by us on the side? -We'll do that, on the side!
-I think you have to go through the middle We should be more on-point with our moves [Filming finally begins] Oh, it's tricky, it's tricky I think we need to film
at least twice more?! OK, OK! Let's go, let's go [3J go through moves again
after monitoring themselves] -One more time?
-Let's keep that cut, and do it again Going from this gesture to your
facial expressions is quite a tight shot Let's make sure we get
a proper shot of your expressions -Bbam bbam bbambbabam! Eh! Here!
-Eh! Ha! Then move on
[One more take after going through details] Eh! Bbabababa babam!
I think we need to do that -Eh!
-Yes j-hope walked over and said
"JK, did you see my text?" I was going to do it He said "Want to do it?"
and I couldn't say no No, it's fun
[Performance video idea came from j-hope] -We haven't done something
like this in a while
-That's right Our fans will enjoy it -Stick your tongue out quickly
-So it would be out Stick it out faster Eh! Yes, let's do that Fighting! Final final?! I... What about you? Is this shot the best one? -For me, yeah
-OK One more take?! One more take, one more take -Final final
-Final final
[3J want to film one more take together] I'm happy to It's not difficult, it's not difficult I'm really going to pour my all into it This take was definitely cleaner This is the last take? I'd be OK with ending it here Real final final?!
[Members feel something's lacking from
wanting to create an even greater performance] Real final final! [3J's Butter (feat. Megan Thee Stallion)
Real_final_final. MP4] -Actual real final final?
-My nerves are going to explode
[Members still have a few regrets] -I'm already gone
-Let's end it here
[Muscles aching from all the takes] Oh, my body isn't able to keep up I wish I could have danced better I can't dance anymore Should we do it? Should we? [They have some regrets but filming
is becoming physically difficult] I can feel that I'm not able to
put more energy into my moves You reached your limit You know that feeling, right?
You need energy to dance -I'll follow your opinion just once
-Once?! -Let's do one final take!
-Let's get up and do it again!
[One more take as Jung Kook has regrets] Great job!
[Though it wasn't perfect
filming wraps up well] The reason we did this dance is that it was Hoseok's idea
[Reason for this performance] 'Wouldn't it be nice to show
ARMY this new side of us?' I think that thought started it It's been a while since we've done
such difficult choreography like this It's been a while since the dancers
of the group performed together I think it's been around four years
since 3J last gathered So j-hope asked Jung Kook
and me if we'd like to do it And that's how it started Jung Kook and Hoseok did so well This isn't the style of
dancing that I'm used to So it was difficult
Even learning it was difficult Jung Kook did so well from the start Though I attended more practice sessions
I still feel like I could've done better [Still having regrets and wanting to show
a better performance, 3J film once more] [Members even practiced after
their scheduled activities for the video] -Should we go?
-Let's go! Let's go, fighting! It's difficult
[Checking last details
with the choreographer] -The dance is difficult
-It's difficult Let's go, Jimin! Let's not get too excited And make our moves clean and sharp! It's definitely cleaner -Let's go!
-OK, let's go! Let's go!
[Additional practice brings better results] That was definitely better! Let's remember that and fighting Let's bring the energy up, fighting Fighting It gets more different,
the more we try takes It's not bad, not bad -I think we need to keep going
-Let's go! -I'm the problem, I have to
hold that part a little more
[3J go over moves till the last moment] You do it Mlem mlem [Nervous about doing well, mistakes happen] Cut I should have gone in quicker We put a little too much force
into our moves for this cut I think you did that too Can we look at the first cut? Should we do one more take? And When we do that Bbam! part Like we're getting pulled suddenly? Yes, I don't think your movements
should get too big -Oh, my hands?!
-Yes That and thinking about what we practiced yesterday
your hand needs to linger a bit to look right You put it down immediately, right? Oh, I'm rushing it Should we try putting that all together? Final take! -Final take, final take
-Final take! Concentrate! -Concentrate!
-Since we've fixed a few things The real final take? Yes, the real final take OK, last one! OK? -OK!
-You got it? Let's think about what we talked about [Members keep going over details
till the end for their last take] [This time, Jung Kook makes a mistake] Moving forward is so hard Cut! We need to close the gap here
[Adjusting for easier movement] -This would be better, right?
-Yes Let's close that gap That does look the cleanest! I feel like we finally have
a shot we'd be OK with posting Then let's post this if you're OK with it Let's end it here? -One more?
-I really hate stuff like this
and don't normally do it But one final take? Fighting! -Let's do it for Jimin
-I really hate saying that! [He doesn't like saying 'one more take' but
requests it because he still has regrets] -Let's do it for Jimin
-Yes! Oh, we had great energy -I liked it too
-It's OK -It's OK
-My neck isn't moving? It wouldn't move Good, good, good! Oh, this one was good It's good -Let's go!
-We're done -Great job!
-Great job!
[Finally, the members are satisfied] Good job, good job, good job Great job
[Members thank Nick
the choreographer as well] Thank you We took two takes to
film the video, everyone! Two takes? Do you know how
many times we said, 'One final take'? We had filmed the performance before but we didn't like it
so we re-filmed it today -Yes
-How was it? For me, my heart is racing and I'm excited to show ARMY an even
better side of ourselves I think our hard work
paid off with a great video Even if we have regrets
we can do better next time This type of content that
showcases 3J's charms -Yes!
-This is content Is it content? Want to hear something scary? -We're making one more of these this year!
-OK Let's film outdoors for a proper video! We're releasing one more video this year! -In the winter!
-Scary stuff, isn't it? Let him decide the style he wants -Winter is the best time to be outside!
-You can see your breath! Hey, are you joking? Outside... Wear rider jackets! Do you really want to?
If you want to, we will! They have such amazing dreams Anyway, I think the video came out well So please give it your love and attention Do we have a separate greeting for 3J? Two, three! 3! J! Isn't 3J kind of funny? -Then should we change it?
-Triple J? Triple J isn't that great either -3J sounds cooler
-OK, 3J How you spell that? Like SAM? -SAM
-SAM J J is... -That sounds like ssamjang?
-It's not G JE Wait, no, J... Hey, that would make us the Three Disasters No, 3J! OK! SAM JEY, SAM JEY JEY So we don't have a greeting? -Three J, three J
-J J J SAM JEY SAM JEY [This has been the filming of 3J's
♪ Butter (feat. Megan Thee Stallion) ♪
performance video] -We'll make it later!
-OK, great job today!
Nodding with appreciation at their dedication while lazing on my bed. How their feet fold outward like that.
They really a bunch of perfectionist.
Hope said: stick your tongue out faster. They be in the details details. Truly world class!
Also, I love how everyone is like this looks fine and they like no it can be better again again…
Wow. I saw on Nick's (the choreographer) insta a while back him talking about how incredibly hard-working and dedicated the boys were to learning and performing the choreo. Of course we knew that already but seeing it laid out here.... how many times they said "one more take" or "final final," even coming back and filming again because they weren't satisfied... all for a 30 second dance video! I love them so much T-T
Also yes PLEASE to a winter version!
That choreography is no joke. You have to love and respect them for how much they put into each take and how much they wanted it to be as perfect as possible.
I love that Cooky and Mang got to make an appearance too haha
Oh man can you imagine them performing Butter in LA and then adding this choreography dance break
captions at 3 minutes in: Real_Final_Final_MP4
Me: thats sus there's still 11 minutes left
YES I was hoping for a Nick Joseph cameo!!! So cool, I love his choreo for this!! Hope he gets to work with them more.
JK and Hobi doing the 👅 with sound! 😆
Mlem mlem??? 😂
Thank you Hobi for thinking of this performance!! And 3J for working so hard (an understatement!)
I see cooky and mang coming back to haunt us. Thought we were free from this. guess not lol
But really, these guys are so hard working and perfectionists. I love how they made sure every person was ok with the final cut and how no one was complaining when they did final final last times. And how Jimin said this wasn't his usual style and how he praised both hobi and jk. This is what healthy team work is.
I also wonder what song they are planning to do their next 3J performance this year, because it seemed like they already had a song in mind. I'll just go ahead and put my clown face on and say that it's a song that they'll release later in the year.
Their diligence paid off. You naturally notice little inconsistencies when rewatching a performance for the 50th time, but not this one. I honestly didn't even see the mistakes they made here that made them stop in the middle of a take. I loved Hobi vibing/dancing through those cuts. And what was the "mlem mlem" thing, so cute 😭
"This is the last take? Final final?" but there's 10 minutes left on the video hahaha.
These guys work so, so hard. It's fascinating to get a peek into even just a fraction of their process. Each time they stopped because someone made a mistake, I swear, I didn't even notice.
Also, Hobi monitoring their shots with such a serious expression on his face made me feel - things. 😳 Already I miss his platinum hair!
