The year’s most successful movie, Barbie, has been able to capture the hearts of everyone and establish itself as peak cinema. Greta Gerwig has continued to be applauded for the brilliant movie and her splendid filmmaking. The cast has also received appreciation for their efforts in bringing our favorite doll to life.
Now Barbie has gotten the attention of BTS’ Kim Taehyung, who recently watched and was all praise for the movie. Here’s what he said about the movie and why he calls it the most impactful film he has watched.
Kim Taehyung Calls ‘Barbie’ An ‘Impactful Film’
Barbie, directed by Greta Gerwig and starring Ryan Gosling and Margot Robbie, may not have performed as well in South Korea as it did in the US. But V, aka Kim Taehyung of BTS, has referred to it as “one of the most impactful films” he has recently seen. Recently, Kim Taeyhung appeared on the cover of the September issue of W Korea magazine. V was then questioned about films during their photo shoot. He was asked in Korean in a clip from the shoot, “Have you seen any good films lately?”
The ‘Winter Bear’ singer then responded, saying it’s “Barbie”. He further added, “It is the most impactful film I have seen recently.”
Twitter fans then praised him for liking the film, which has received a lot of criticism for apparently being a feminist film and many men found it to be ignorant towards men.
Of course! Because he is a smart man, without sexist prejudice and he understood the message. We love a smart man!
