Nam June Paik: Moon Is the Oldest TV is a documentary that explores the life and visionary work of the "father of video art," who revolutionized modern technology as a medium for creative expression. This cinematic portrait is narrated by actor Steven Yeun and chronicles how the Korean-born artist predicted the future of global connectivity and digital media long before the rise of the internet. The film connects deeply with BTS through the group's leader, RM, a noted art collector and enthusiast who has frequently cited Paik as a major influence on his artistic philosophy and has championed his legacy to millions of fans worldwide.
