‘Wild Thing’ Releases ‘Love Is’ Music Video for Film’s Fictional Co-Ed Group Triangle

The film ‘Wild Thing’ has released the track and music video for ‘Love Is,’ the signature song of the fictional co-ed group Triangle featured in the movie.

‘Wild Thing’ is a comedy about Triangle, a three-member co-ed dance group that once dominated the music scene but disbanded overnight after an unexpected incident. The story follows the group as it takes on a reckless challenge to seize a comeback opportunity that arrives 20 years later. ‘Love Is’ is Triangle’s debut and 대표 song in the film, offering an early look at the movie’s tone and the group’s identity.

The song was released at noon on the 21st across major South Korean music platforms including Genie, Melon, Flo, Bugs and Vibe, as well as YouTube and global services such as Spotify and Apple Music. It is a dance-pop track that updates the bright, hopeful feel of late-1990s to early-2000s dance music with a polished, modern sound.

Composer Shim Eun-ji, known for work including TWICE’s ‘KNOCK KNOCK’ and ‘YES or YES’ and collaborations with SHINee, IU and ITZY, took part in the project. The song pairs an upbeat sound with lyrics about the excitement of love and a catchy chorus, aiming to capture Triangle’s fresh energy.

The music video leans into a period look, using a 4:3 aspect ratio, retro framing, a stylized filter and eye-lighting effects to recreate the visual language of older music videos. Restrained camera movement further emphasizes an analog feel.

The visual concept assigns each character a distinct accent color against a white background: Hyun-woo in red, Do-mi in green and Sang-gu in blue, matching wardrobe and set tones for a simple, direct impression.

The performance is built around a trendy intro with tightly divided beats and easy-to-follow moves choreographed by Yang Uk. The video also highlights Hyun-woo’s b-boying, Sang-gu’s forceful rap and Do-mi’s steady presence, underscoring the group’s on-screen teamwork.

After the video’s release, online comments included: “I can’t believe Kang Dong-won is showing such precise dancing,” “Eom Tae-goo shows a completely different side,” “They really captured the vibe of that era,” “The song is better than expected,” and “Why are they taking this so seriously?” Some viewers said the mix of retro and modern elements is boosting immersion in the film.

‘Wild Thing’ is set to meet audiences on June 3.
