BTS "I NEED U" MV EXPLAINED // SPOILER: WE WERE IN JIN'S MIND ALL ALONG
Once you've understood that we are in Jin's mindall along and that the boys are a personnification of Jin's emotions whilegrowing up, I NEED U (and all the other MVs from the HYYH Trilogy) makes perfectsense. None of what each of them goes through really happened the way itis depicted (or actually happened): V did not literally kill his father, nobody gotliterally hit by a car or did literally commit suicide. The whole MV is an allegory of the hardships of growing up and the difficulty for Jin to let go of his youth.
The MV timeline is especially important here as the editing clarifies what's happening. It gives added meaning to scenes already heavy on symbolism, and to the I NEED U MV (and HYYH Trilogy) as a whole. The below explanation follows therefore the MV timeline as closely as possible.
SETTING OF THE STORY
§ Jin is in a white, monastic room, holding lily petals into his hands and looking numb.
§ J-Hope is looking at himself into a mirror with perplexity.
§ JungKook is wandering the streets, going nowhere.

§ V seems pensive, sitting by the door of what is actually the family appartement, where his dad's bottles of alcohol are laid down on the floor.
§ Suga is lying on a bed, stroking the pillow by his side with a longing look. Someone seems to just have left (crumpled sheets).
§ Rapmon is working at a gas station (living the reality of adulthood), sucking onto a lollipop (a blatant symbol of childhood).

§ Jimin appears in a bathtub, burning down a note (whatever that note is or says, it is obviously something that pains him and that he doesn't want to hold onto. By burning it down, he denies its very existence).
