So basically this song is about hate, regret and an gold digging ho that essentially turns leaves the guy for someone with more dosh. GD's MV doesn't really give me a lot to go on for a concept since I actually don't have any fans. I wonder if one of the guys know any girls that would be able to help me out for this assignment. Naturally I would need them as well... I'll see who is close to finishing. With that I bounded out of bed and headed down to the YG cafeteria.

Who did I find, well Kim Jin Hwan and Yang Hongseok discussing their success in filming their MV's. Both had chosen Taeyang's songs for their assignments. At least they had easier concepts right? This would be a good chance to get to know they guys, that is if they are happy to help me out. Plus it gives me a chance to speak a bit of Korean.

"Hi guys, I was just wondering if you could help me out with my music video". "See I don't really know any girls since I'm from Australia and I really need one to feature in my music video if you guys know anyone..." I said in broken korean with bit of english.

The sensible part of my brain wondered if they understood a single word I had just said. By the apparent laughter I had said something wrong. Which I had later found out had something to do with sex... "Segseu" Just for future reference.

I tried again in english this time and Yang Hongseok translated for me. They were both still laughing by the time I got the chance to fully explain my idea. Both these guys were older so I tried to appeal to them as a donsaseng.

"Please Hyung's I really need your help!" I begged, almost in tears if these guys didn't help me I was going to be screwed.

"Don't worry little dongsaeng, we will help you out but for a price of course" said Yang Hongseok. "You will have to clean our rooms and wash our backs for us for the next week" he continued. Well the cleaning would be okay but I might have trouble washing with them because I'm a girl uh duh. Also I would love to ask what the big deal is with asian cultures and washing other peoples backs. I mean seriously can't you do it yourself?

"How about I clean your rooms for the next two weeks and we forget about the back washing." "I'm too self conscious to shower with my hyungs" I said while blushing unconsciously. Stop thinking dirty thoughts Alex it's not going to happen. Jeez I hope they buy it, said my internal monologue. There was a little negotiation spoken amongst my older bros before they accepted.

"Make it three weeks and you have a deal" said Yang Hongseok  with an evil grin.

I reluctantly accepted, what else could I do? I mean I had secret to keep right?
"No problem, now here is what I need."

All I had to film was an iPhone and a selfie stick. Which wouldn't be a problem when it came to editing.Ok I had an easy concept I just needed to borrow the acting skills of one my hyungs and a girl.

"Hello Seo Yun thank you for helping me with my Mv at such short notice, my name is Alex" I greeted Yang Hongseok's female friend in Korean.

"It's no problem, just tell me what you need me to do" She responded with a smile.

"Okay, basically the concept is this," I switched to english relying on my hyungs to translate. "I'm totally in love with Seo Yun but she leaves me for one of you guys because you buy her pretty things". "Very cliche' I know but I can't come up with anything better in a short amount of time." "I would like to begin the clip with us doing cheap couple things that you would on a typical date for students using the selfie stick ,and then which ever one of you guys that is not playing the rich b*astard that stole my girlfriend can film shopping dates, and a couple of scenes with me crying and whatever."

"Let's get started" I said grabbing Seo Yun's arm while failing to notice the slight blush on her cheeks as I did so. "Who wants to play the lead role of the b*stard?" I said looking directly at Yang Hongseok.

"Thanks for volunteering" I said to the older boy before he could respond Kim Jin Hwan grabbed my phone out my hand and began filming.

"Alex, watch out!" Yelled Kim Jin Hwan, but it was too late I had already tripped over a basket of apples that someone was selling at a market which went everywhere. It hadn't been 5 minutes into the filming and I was already making a fool of myself. The Ajumma that was trying to sell them wasn't happy as I rushed down the street to try and catch as many as I could. I looked over at my Hyungs who were both shaking with laughter.

"Ya! Why don't you help me pick them up?" I cried in desperation. In the end I bought the apples I bruised which only turned out to be 8 and the lady thanked me for the help. Throughout the entire ordeal  Kim Jin Hwan continued to film which was good because I ended up using it in the Mv later.

The rest of the filming went off without a hitch, which meant that within four hours I would be able to have the MV completed and ready for critique. We got some great shots of the streets of Seoul and found out that Yang Hongseok wasn't a bad actor either.

"Remember our deal Alex, 3 whole weeks" said Yang Hongseok while holding my phone just out of my reach.

"Yes Hyung, I won't forget! Now please give me my phone" I cried jumping up and down like a two year old. Eventually he gave in, and within 2 hours I had sent off the completed copy to YG.
