Akanishi Jin-Eternal PV preview


With just 8 days until the release of Akanishi Jin's first solo single, Eternal, we finally have a preview of the PV.


Under whelmed isn't a strong enough word to describe this PV preview. There is nothing, absolutely nothing going on in this PV. It feels like Ultimate Wheels all over again. The PV preview consists of nothing but Jin standing with his hood up singing in front of a sepia colored clouded backdrop. I know the song is a ballad, but that's not really an excuse for how boring this PV is. This is a beautiful love song, they could have done something with the PV. Where's Jin pretending to play the piano while singing it? Where's Jin laying in bed with the girl he wants to be with forever? Where's any form of a storyline? And we can't even blame JE for this one, as he's signed to Warner and they take care of the PV budget now. But I'm sure the PV is only this simple because he must be incredibly busy working on his American album, while at the same time promoting a single in Japan. That might be the case, but it doesn't make me less disappointed by the simplicity of the PV.
