"All of Us Are Dead" actress Park Ji-hu skipped the Tribeca Film Festival a few years ago, because she had a school exam she didn't want to miss. She ended up winning the best actress award for House of Hummingbird in absentia. Park, 19, made her first trip to the U.S. earlier this year for this Teen Vogue cover story (written by me).

***

Purple and Pink on title of Little Women

In opening sequence, the title Little Women have purple with pink shade as background color

In each ending of episode, the title Little Women appear before credits, usually appear in white text and black screen, before the text got painted. The first color of paint in text is Pink and Purple

Which is color of Injoo and Hwayoung

It's like indicating how Little Women's plot story, beside the Oh Sisters, mostly will be around Injoo and Hwayoung

***

A glimpse of Pink and Purple color on Injoo and Hwayoung's clothes at South Korea

At South Korea, Injoo mostly wear earth color pallete clothes and Hwayoung mostly wear colorless (black/white) clothes

(more explaination on Part 2: Earthenspoon & Nospoon)

But in 1st episode, there's small purple part in Hwayoung clothes. And when Injoo "playing rich", she wear pink clothes.

It's like hinting how they are part of Princess of Thieves later in story

***

Cinderella and Fairygodmother

Hwayoung and Injoo in restaurant scene heavily referenced from Cinderella

Hwayoung is like Fairygodmother who dressing Injoo, the Cinderella, to "playing rich"

The Purple color on Hwayoung and Pink color on Injoo is similar with purple color on Cinderella's Pink dress and Fairygodmother's Purple cloak

***

Color Mood of Princess of Thieves

In each scene when Injoo had thinking or talking about Hwayoung, the color mood around her change into combination of Pink and Purple; the color of Princess of Thieves

Quoting from Choo Jahyun (Hwayoung's actress)'s interview:

"It felt like Goeun (Injoo's actress) was living as both Injoo and Hwayoung at the same time in Little Women"

The combination of pink and purple color mood on those scenes is like symbolized how Injoo and Hwayoung become one on Injoo's mind

***

The Intruder: Yellow

On Princess of Thieves that appear on Singapore's auction, the flower has little shade of Yellow

Which is color of Won Sangah and fake!Hwayoung's dress on Singapore

Won = name of Korean money currency

Korean highest currency (50,000) has color of Yellow

Yellow = Sangah and Won Family = Capitalism

Yellow vs Purple

On color wheel theory, Yellow and Purple are color that opposite to each other

Symbolized how Hwayoung (Purple) and Sangah (Yellow) are total opposite

In opening sequence, Oh sisters were drawn mostly with shade of purple, and their background is yellow.

Indicating how the sisters are like "actors" in Sangah's play vs Hwayoung; how the battle between those masterminds was told from three sisters' perspective

It's also symbolized how Sangah = Yellow = Money = Capitalism is the main enemy

***

The Shadow of Flower

Hwayoung (화영)'s name have meaning Beautiful Flower. The writer JSK had mentioned that she want to give a name to Hwayoung that relate to Flowers because Hwayoung love gardening

In hanja, Hwayoung have secret meaning of her name: 花影 = 꽃의 그림자 = Shadow of Flower

It's like symbolising how Hwayoung is shadow part of flowers:

1. Princess of Thieves: to Injoo

At first, Hwayoung's color seems like also Pink

Hwayoung mostly wear pink on her second account/alter ego Jin Mikyung and on Injoo's imagination about Hwayoung's second life

It's like foreshadowing how Hwayoung live under Injoo's name at Singapore

On locker scene, Hwayoung seems like giving off her pink clothes to Injoo. Like symbolizing she's fully giving the pink side of Princess of Thieves to Injoo, together with all money and Bruno Zumino shoes that she give to her on the bag

2. Blue Ghost Orchid: to Sangah and Won Family/Jeongran

The surname Jin (진) on Jin Hwayoung is to give impression that Hwayoung is came from place that far away (indeed in character description of Hwayoung on official website, it's written Hwayoung is not from Seoul and came to there to work on Orchid Construction). If we look to Jin in Chinese surname version, it has meaning GOLD

It's like secret meaning on how Hwayoung in back have so many money and assets, because she's part of secret society Jeongran and worked for Won family

***

Thief Princess

There's Little Women OST titled "Thief Princess"

The OST indeed mostly got played in some scene that relate to Injoo or/and Hwayoung:

When Injoo decided to search the truth behind Hwayoung's death, and she look to the unbloomed Princess of Thieves

When Sangah give Injoo a blue suit, and then Injoo remembering how Hwayoung give her a black suit before this

When Hwayoung confess that she want Injoo to be happy on court scene
