It’s going to come out pretty soon here.
-AL: Do I get paid extra for this? -Steve: No, but your life gets shortened.
EPIPHANY
Behind The Scenes
We’re here in Ogden, (Utah) at the Fifth Floor.
We’re going to be filming, BTS’s Epiphany.
So, a few months back. Our manager called us and said,
“Guys, you need to check out this K-pop band, called BTS.”
Steve and I were like, “WHAT? WHAT?"
We love Korea.
Why?
Steve and I both lived in Korea.
We were there for two years, eating the food.
We were with the people.
We were in the rice paddies at time.
We were teaching English and we were sharing a positive message of hope.
We listened to their music and something just connected with us.
We decided that we were going to take a go at DNA.
-Al: So, we got in the studio. We started working on DNA. We were feeling good.
Three days into it, we get a text from Jon, in the studio as we’re working on DNA.
-Steve: So he actually clandestinely had already started his own version of Epiphany,
while we were working on DNA.
-Al: We’re were just like, “What do you do?”
We’ve already started a song. We can’t do two!
Or can we?
So we said, “What the hey!"
You’re feeling it. Go for it!
-Steve: So, our manager, and Sony and the world, got two for the price of one.
Jon brought his Samsonite.
And it’s a very light Samsonite.
I was wondering why. Then he opened it.
Umm. Look what he packed in it.
There is one pair of shoes and a pair of socks.
-Jon: I was going to put more in it.
-Al: Now that makes sense!
-Al: Why didn’t you tell me you had that in there? I totally get it now.
Before, just the shoes and that.
I mean, a golf tee.
-Al: That is what you call… -Jon: I don’t care.
-Steve: Packing light. -Jon: I don’t care.
-Paul: This is actually a bug sprayer thing.
You put baby oil in it and it creates this fog effect.
It’s cool.
I’ve never heard about that. We learned something new today.
-Al: Do I get paid extra for this?
-Steve: No but your life gets shortened.
-Paul: We’re just getting started here.
We only have until 1:30 because Jon’s got to be gone.
So we’re going to focus on wide shots, both of them together, and then piano.
Then we’ll do Steve after.
-Al: So, for all the Korean fans out there, we taught Jon some Korean.
We taught him how to say, “I play the piano very well.”
He’s going to sing it for you now.
*Jon trying to sing in Korean*
-Al: Oh yeah. That’s nice.
*Jon trying to sing in Korean*
-Al: Kimchi. Okay.
So there you go. That’s how you learn Korean.
That’s how we learn with music.
You can learn languages and become fluent.
-Paul: We’re going to do some drone shots inside.
Earlier we were having some issues. Apparently, this is a “no fly zone”.
I had to email DJI to get them to approve us being able to fly in this little room.
We’re not outside.
We’re not going to run into airplanes.
They replied really quick and got us approved.
So, we can fly indoors now.
Okay. We pretty much finished up the shoot with Jon and Steve.
Jon had to take off.
So now, we’re just going to finish up with Steve.
We’ve got a few more shots left to get of Steve with the electric cello.
Then, I think we’ll be done.
