ENHYPEN’s Jake And Jay Reveal Why They Couldn’t Stop Laughing While Filming This Scene In The “Given-Taken” MV

“I’ve never looked at Jay’s face that closely before!”

During ENHYPEN‘s Guess That Song In Reverse challenge with popular YouTube channel REACT, both Jake and Jay were reminded of a hilarious moment they once had together!

After the group was asked to tell a fun behind-the-scenes story, Sunghoon triggered their memories by mentioning the “’02 line part” from ENHYPEN’s debut music video “Given-Taken” which the members definitely seemed to recognize.

Almost immediately, Jay began to act out the way he and Jake looked at each other during the shoot while trying to suppress their laughter.

Jay: Jake and I had to make eye contact.

Jake: It was so funny we couldn’t look at each other!

Jay: We closed our eyes for the other person while shooting the close-up.

Jake: We took turns one by one. That was the very first scene we shot for the music video!

Apparently, the scene in question (which only lasts about eight seconds in the final cut) ended up taking around four hours to film!

Jake further explained that the sheer closeness of the two boys made it nearly impossible to keep a straight face.

“It was hilarious… I’ve never looked at Jay’s face that closely before, but it’s even funnier close up!”

While it may have been difficult for them at the time, there’s no question that  “Given-Taken” turned out absolutely amazing!
