#maybe the whole concept of the mv was just aesthetics lmao

... hmm gon be honest everything thus far has fallen under my overall idea of concept, mood, and atmosphere i guessed this debut gon be but after yesterday teasers photos and todays mv teaser im kinda thrown off course..... this direction of smoke is nothing like i imagined but let’s roll
this was the tone i always had in mind but so much has shifted since this teaser... & it’s true it did open the scene, so maybe that’s why it felt that much more impactful..... like i can’t even compare the smoky-ness in this to any other teasers that dropped out later. like this is just peak immaculate vibes. it’s almost genial he even did it so i should be grateful so much for it.
the dusk orange... the recklessness of 70s rocky psychedelic smoked air.... JUST.. criminal !
the leather picks he wears here... the F7CKING BOOTS... the studs in the pants... the lighter... i need to raid this wardrobe so bad. not to say the car as well.... lmao he’s the coolest for this Cadillac pick like ive no words!!!!!!
+ THAT ONE MAHOGANY /REDish PICTURE I COULDN’T STOP MYSELF FROM POSTING ON ANY PLATFORM I COULD... LIKE I NEED THAT ONE AS AN ART PIECE... IN A FRAME..
2nd favourite. this was peak artistic aesthetic to show off everything that has made you this far and showcase it in a way you present what all these details mean to you... my idea is that this whole album lives in every fragment of every photo of this photset that came out that day. or it helps me realize/visualize what he values behind it
the tiny tiniest attention to the details almost killed me. love it when people/artists take the time to salute and give back on what has helped them / served to inspire them thru a process.
here especially... it feels like modern art since this place almost symbolizes blank canvas a 'rundown house' and the things are just thrown around yet they lead me into a final product that feels too contemporary yet it gives an ode to the past.
his styling here oh god....... just so Jaehyun...
to think of this is making me crazy again. i love whoever came up with this set. one of my fave ever
i could talk about the rest but these two just super take the cake for me so no need to drag...
also, the highlight medley was phenomenal
not that i complain but the teaser today feels like a mood ive already experienced??? be on film or other teasers of other kpop acts... like it feels too familiar to me when all the previous teasers he put out were very him, very original and true to how, at least, i experience him as an artist even a human
but its Jaehyun though with a face that we will never see again in the next 100 years... so he'll make it work, im sure... though it's giving vibes ive seen... can’t lie..
again... need no more rumbling this focus face is absolute cinema ... i guess that’s what smoke is all about in the end,, his smoky aura...
im just realising how it ties to the psycho mood he embodied in The Smoky Night which then again was truly his very 1st video teaser so i guess it kinda of makes sense but ive become so deeply rooted to my vision that now the new stuff feels kinda off my radar... smth i didn’t see getting integrated,
like the suits, although he’s so known for them i truly hoped they would be off this time and we will focus more on Jaehyun Jaehyun and not idol Jaehyun which sm always puts him in this suit role like rent is due.
no, i don’t care about kick it Jaehyun. no i won’t draw the similarities there. this is not nct Jaehyun this is just Jaehyun... sooo,
so the historical remark in the robe he wears is also kind of all over the place since it never got introduced anywhere before... nor i see it in the music though i think yesterday's teasers are exceptional and very elusive but they don’t click in terms of the straightforward contemporary music he’s teasing...
so that way im really confused on these details rather but its OK. thats just fucking me and my eye to always see things under a microscope
again... this is all as far as the visual concept goes. which im very much crazy about... like the visual stuff... i have no opinion on the song yet... nor i can complete an idea after all the short snippets of it we got. the recent posts have truly, completely clouded my vision, so will see on monday!!!! if i had to compare.... 'can’t get you' still feel too good to be true.... roses too... he has to deliver smth more solid... in the end of the day is just a tt. bsides are known to cater to individuals while tts cater to audience which are two different things.
also, i think is very quirky how all the teasers and the stories are presented to us in such order that they are kind of told in reverse imao. it started from smoky night and his villain self to that scene 4 where he was so happy to go on his date with nothing but his casual converse and bouquet of roses......
the romantic protagonist turn cruel due heartbreak... arc
again these smoke teasers yesterday are so 😁😁 saucy if i can say... truly in his, "you broke my heart, now you’ll realize what you lost"
and him repeating roses’s you wanna be mine two times is just as desperate as ian repeating im sane in don’t go insane..... it’s that pathetic.... of a refusal.... to believe the truth
deranged behaviour truly set in for smoke. let’s see im excited i waited for this for so long i can’t believe im experiencing it real time.

Hello! No London for me bestie, I'm not going back to the UK, I'll be in Prague actually 😂 then maybe Italy if I have enough money and energy
SM artists truly need to unonise, because Taeyeon now?! SM can't respect their older idols aka those who have been brining money to their table for years, I don't even know what's the newest groups' situation like. AND A NEW GG soon?!?!? Also where are Shotaro and Sungchan, where is their group at..... I'm so tired
CAN'T BELIEVE I MISSED SHINEE'S CONCERTS I HATE EVERYTHING. At least I watched the livestream 😭 and everyone was there, Jongin </333 Okay, love my 5th gen rookie Shinee <333 Hard is very "current bgs sound" it does sound like Nctee a little bit, but the vocals!!! Sounds like a banger tbh, it's not too weird so I can digest it quickly lmao. I like when Shinee is having fun, even though it may not be my fave TT from them, I feel like I may like it more than DCM. The MV was very NCT, perhaps not my fave, SM is a hit or miss with their music videos. Anyways, it's very 1st gen, got some Seo Taji and the Boys vibes. BUT THE BSIDEEEEEES!
It's frustrating because KQ can put so much thought and creativity into the lore, the MVs got so much better too, but the photos? And why do they only post one for each concept, Hybe drops 2737272 photos and they're usually really cool.
Shinee's concepts may be simple, but the Thom Browne ones are very aesthetically pleasing and the NCT-esque ones are fun too, because the pics are dynamic despite the boring background. Love all the boards you've prepared! I actually bought some more SM albums, particularly NCT's and Aespa's (I know, fuck SM, but I got a good deal) and the photos?! WOW. The issue is KQ is scared of taking risks, they can't commit fully, even the outfits for this comeback, we thought we'd be getting Yeehawteez, but it's so half-assed and we're back to fucking bikers and bodyguards, lol. And I'll never understand why they had funky hair colours for Halazia and not this. And now Jongho is purple??? A bit late, mate. I genuinely think the hair could add more quirkiness to the concept photos
(I appreciate the idea of combining regular photos with manhwa concept, but not sure about the execution https://twitter.com/zhouang/status/1671524592387596288?t=OtcpMguvP4yo722xCzVnWg&s=19)
I know we're in the cyber post-apo world and they probably won't be back to the sea y'know, like pirates, but if we ever actually get the sea concept. A.C.E are truly the standard https://twitter.com/sehyoonshoney/status/1661359705506164741?t=B4l7FsVLKDdePdTlMwOTlQ&s=19
Seriously??? The man is trying and yet https://twitter.com/hwalilac/status/1672083626736095233?t=7QYMQFWYXUf3LPgcWGdZTw&s=19
Yes, Outlaw just like Movement is very cohesive, but I feel like that kind of cohesiveness is overrated and a bit too much. The songs blend in, I don't know where one ends and another one begins, and they're STACKED with noise and switch ups, so listening to the whole thing from the beginning to the end is a lot. ZFP1 is a cohesive album, it fits the late summer vibe, yet each song is very different. I'd say ZFP3 is similar. I just wish they let Jongho's voice rest, the amount of high notes *sigh* I think it's Wake Up? He straight up yells, and listen I'm an opera lover, but this isn't it ://// Edenary is pissing me off a bit, ngl...
Sorry, everyone's meeting Yuta except you 😭 the same friend of mine met Taeyong twice, once he walked past her on the way to Loewe's show (and girl lost her earring), then gave her his autographs after the show.... 😭 and hold on?! https://twitter.com/mintmag_th/status/1672549191372124170?t=YYeGI5dSL65PF-FbjGREnQ&s=19
Ok but 127's line up I just.... gonna say something possibly controversial, but I don't think it's that unpopular: Haechan should be in Dream only and Mark in 127, they're already overworked. I love TY and I know why he's the center, but putting my bias aside I feel like sometimes his time could be given to someone else, same with lines. Or maybe if they had a proper 3rd rapper, not Jamal, he needs to sing! And not Johnny - bless him, but he's not a rapper, sometimes they make Yuta rap and I can't even... Wait, did you hear this cover Yuta did? https://www.instagram.com/p/Csi1KVEo5_3/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== I really like the original and I can't believe he did that 😭 my jrock loving ass was shook
Troye?! https://twitter.com/5ugaring/status/1672121681866014721?t=ZJtmpVafz1VTQsiqupEsdQ&s=19 why are you everywhere jgdhahajshdhahshshs he got Taeyong too 🥴
Uncle Hwaaaa! Oh to be a little kid and paint Hwa's toenails and run around carelessly ajhdhshdhahshsjshsshhaag and what's with all that kids content? Rip to y'alls ovaries or something 🤭 it's just like that one kindergarten teacher Seonghwa fic I once read
HAVE YOU SEEN A MAN SO BEAUTIFUL LIKE I'M SO DAMAGED YET HEALED BECAUSE OF THESE PICTURES LIKE?!?!?! https://twitter.com/pseonghwapics/status/1671800295607730176?t=WK-G9vQ55AbTm_2jkdGUCg&s=19 AND https://twitter.com/nobodylikehwa/status/1671662936652120067?t=rS8KzmH1gZC9GlxamGwjCA&s=19
BITCH THESE PHOTOS I- https://twitter.com/aurorahopee/status/1672552412383531008?t=BUwMKD8sfT3Xcp7IZ9YUfA&s=19
The Titan situation is sad, but at the same time, why do people do that? It didn't sound safe from the beginning, like leave the Titanic alone...and now they shared the same fate, the 19 year old shouldn't have been there... :/ ofc it's an awful thing, if they were even alive up to this point, imagine waiting for your death. But also MONEY TRULY MAKES PEOPLE GO FUCKING DERANGED WTF
Heeeeeey, See You in My 19th Life drama!? I totally missed it. Also started Bloodhounds, it's so sad, but wholesome too and WDH is so good, I missed him
Do the quiz Baek, I got Ricciardo lmao: https://uquiz.com/quiz/V6eoyv?p=983346

A NEW GG W SO MANY MEMBERS??? a girls generation dupe?? 😭😭 im so glad i bought nct’s resonance album bc they had everyone in it like sungchan was like jaejoong’s 4th generation,,, sm couldn’t have two jaejoong’s in one group they had to get him out 😭😭😭
CAN'T BELIEVE I MISSED SHINEE'S CONCERTS I HATE EVERYTHING. At least I watched the livestream 😭 and everyone was there, Jongin </333 Okay, love my 5th gen rookie Shinee <333 Hard is very "current bgs sound" it does sound like Nctee a little bit, but the vocals!!!

my current list : sweet misery, gravity, satellite, insomnia, identity and then everyone else
It's frustrating because KQ can put so much thought and creativity into the lore, the MVs got so much better too, but the photos? And why do they only post one for each concept, Hybe drops 2737272 photos and they're usually really cool.
rIGHT??? they need a new creative director or something bc there’s soOOO much that can be done?? like give us every single penny form ur budget in that photobook,, GIVE US FILTER SOME FACIAL FEATURES need them to hire a sm creative director, i just need to see something,, ur right! hybe has great photos, sm’s 2014 era esp fs’s red tape side, wowzie like let’s get on that bar 😭😭
Shinee's concepts may be simple, but the Thom Browne ones are very aesthetically pleasing and the NCT-esque ones are fun too, because the pics are dynamic despite the boring background. Love all the boards you've prepared! I actually bought some more SM albums, particularly NCT's and Aespa's (I know, fuck SM, but I got a good deal) and the photos?! WOW.

And I'll never understand why they had funky hair colours for Halazia and not this. And now Jongho is purple??? A bit late, mate. I genuinely think the hair could add more quirkiness to the concept photos
sEE ITS MY ONE FAVOURITE THING ABT SM,, even if the photos are simple, there’s just so much to look at. like their features, the makeup, the camera angle, the bright outfits and it POPS w the shinee one esp?? LIKE it’s so simple but they make it look so like an editorial from a street fashion magazine???
(I appreciate the idea of combining regular photos with manhwa concept, but not sure about the execution https://twitter.com/zhouang/status/1671524592387596288?t=OtcpMguvP4yo722xCzVnWg&s=19) /// I know we're in the cyber post-apo world and they probably won't be back to the sea y'know, like pirates, but if we ever actually get the sea concept.

when i first saw this, it remained me of exo’s power era where they implemented comic books into their concept but differently than what atz did,, theirs suits it! the green meshes w the comic style im glad there’s no cloud bubble with some random thing written in it 😭😭 UR SO TRUE ACE’S PHOTOS FOR THAT ERA WERE SO MAGICAL IT GAVE ARIEL A RUN FOR HER MONEY?? esp w those hanboks wow???? ateez doing that but in their piratey outfit, in the water like that, w like a little glitter in the water <33 SEONGHWA REALLY IS TRYING WITH THE BARE MINIMUM LIKE GIVE HIM SO SOME METAL ROD OR SOMETHING OR A BROKEN TV HE COULD LEAN ON 😭😭
Yes, Outlaw just like Movement is very cohesive, but I feel like that kind of cohesiveness is overrated and a bit too much.

everything u said here esp “i don't know where one ends and another one begins,” !!!! THEY ARE STACKED ABSOLUTE TO SOUND THE SAME oh ur spoke so right, zfp1 was so late summer almost autumn, it’s like each song was a different weather or season transitioning into the other,, no ur right some songs he’s just yelling, i wish to hear his softer notes where he completely breaks us,, with those almost whisper like notes OHHH IM WAITING FOR THAT DAYYY SO PATIENTLY LIKE JONGHO BREAK ME!!! sometimes his notes reminds me of winters,, sometimes there’s some similarities may b just me 🤚🏻im with u on that
Sorry, everyone's meeting Yuta except you 😭 the same friend of mine met Taeyong twice, once he walked past her on the way to Loewe's show (and girl lost her earring), then gave her his autographs after the show.... 😭 and hold on?! https://twitter.com/mintmag_th/status/1672549191372124170?t=YYeGI5dSL65PF-FbjGREnQ&s=19
NO BC IM FURIOUS GET THE FUCK OUT YALL OUT HERE MEETING TAEYONF ON THE STREETS??? the most i ever met a idol was svt being 10 mins away from me and me not noticing until they posted pictures w them stripping in the ocean. LOST HER EARRING?? gonna be a delulu and say did taeyong find it and did it become her cinderella momenf,, OH WITH EMRATA??? wait now that i think about it they kinda look alike 🧍🏻♀️
Ok but 127's line up I just.... gonna say something possibly controversial, but I don't think it's that unpopular: Haechan should be in Dream only and Mark in 127, they're already overworked. I love TY and I know why he's the center, but putting my bias aside I feel like sometimes his time could be given to someone else, same with lines. Or maybe if they had a proper 3rd rapper, not Jamal, he needs to sing! And not Johnny - bless him, but he's not a rapper, sometimes they make Yuta rap and I can't even...

controversial but so damn talented and cohesive,, oUUU UR KINDA SUPER RIGHT i think mark fits that 127 style so much,, he brings so much spice into it and taeil easily can take over,, haechan has such a warm tone and it’s so pretty to listen to it and it somehow fits dream better?? johnny has such a nice voice like it’s so snakey esp when he said “if u happy and u know it clap ur hands” WHEWWWWW THE VOCALS ???? jamal😭😭😭 FHWKDHWK oh yuta. oh yuta that starting nOTE JUST ELEVATED ME TO A DIFF LEVEL???? SO CREEPY BUT SO PERFECT fits his scorpio so much what a talent sm scouted

Rip to y'alls ovaries or something 🤭 it's just like that one kindergarten teacher Seonghwa fic I once read

he’S SO FUCKING CYBERCORE ??? LIKE KQ BE DOIKG THE STYLE WRITE ONLY FOR DAYS LIKE THIS BUT NEVER AS A FULL CONCEPT HE WOULD SLAY SO HARD OMG FHANDHKW YEAH THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE NEED
HE IS SO BOBA
The Titan situation is sad, but at the same time, why do people do that? It didn't sound safe from the beginning, like leave the Titanic alone...and now they shared the same fate, the 19 year old shouldn't have been there... :/ ofc it's an awful thing, if they were even alive up to this point, imagine waiting for your death. But also MONEY TRULY MAKES PEOPLE GO FUCKING DERANGED WTF
it really is so extremely sad esp on the 19yo who wanted to please his dad and went with him omg 😭😭😭 saw posts from ppl saying that if your death is written in the depth of the ocean, you'll rent even a submarine to reach there on time. it’s so awful knowing that they can never recover their remains bc they’re probably just nothing now,, i feel for their family especially the man’s wife who said they were having a hard time breathing just thinking about them 🤲🏻🤲🏻 i just know the father’s biggest regret was bringing his son with him,, also saw a video of a man who was supposed to be in that exact ship a week before but didn’t go bc the weather was terrible and it shows the head guy saying what was wrong, and they still went. ill link it here bc it was truly scary to watch,,, makes me think that the guy in the video who brought the wreath for the titanic, titanic took saved him in that way
and this seems very awfully familiar.
Heeeeeey, See You in My 19th Life drama!? I totally missed it. Also started Bloodhounds, it's so sad, but wholesome too and WDH is so good, I missed him /// Do the quiz Baek, I got Ricciardo lmao: https://uquiz.com/quiz/V6eoyv?p=983346
YES IT ISSS !!!! ITS ACTUALLY SO GOOD??? bloodhounds got me crying man 😭😭😭 wdh’s acting just, it’s something about his face that when he cries it PAINS me to watch,, im also vv glad he’s back! hoping he gets some big projects and picks his options wisely!!! I DID AND I FBWNFHSJ I FOT SEBASTIAN 😭😭😭 LMFAOOOO??? NOT U GETTING HIM 😭😭
????? Wow https://www.reddit.com/r/kpop/comments/14imekp/former_miss_a_member_jiaformer_fx_member_amber/ /// And yet another Min Hee Jin controversy, I hate her so much. But I hate the defendes even more - DV 💖
OH THE VISUALS??? jia’s visuals are so beautiful like wow wow wow god is a woman.
im actually so appalled by the topic, like there’s absolutely no way she didn’t know what she was doing, either she’s trying to get traction or completely ruining herself….like even the god damn names??? sure they are common but when u put them against that title track and the history??? im convinced she knew what was happening, did it on purpose for the sakes of popularity and didn’t not expect the potential boycott. in the name of art you’re using a t*rrorist aesthetic?? what a new low.
😭😭😭
zayn’s joining exo??? LMFAOOOO
and jongho is so pretty??? this hair suits him so much
i got a uquiz
did we….did we manifest this

Sorry it took me a bit to respond, had a bit of a crazy day yesterday, but here I am! How's your week going?
You make a good point, that best and favorite can be different! For me, my biases are always gonna be some of my favorites - Taeyang I feel like has a unique voice that's really interesting to listen to, and Chan's singing voice is just super pretty to me, some of his lines on Maxident sound so amazing. 😭 I also like really Inseong's voice, it's very iconic to me, my high note fox boy. 🥺 There's also this soloist who used to be part of a group where I really like his voice, especially in a song he just put out (here's the song if you're curious). There's also definitely other voices I really enjoy, but I'm bad at pinpointing who's who vocal wise until I'm really into a group. 😂
That's fair, it did have a lot going on! I think my experience is also biased as a Chan stan because he had some really great outfits for that MV. That uniform sort of one was soooooo good. 👌Britt I am telling you this specifically because of you being a binsung stan. You should really watch the Circus MV, especially if you haven't really seen their outfits from it. The general concept is just, circus. But the looks!!! I get you on not really rewatching MVs, after a few times I usually just listen to the song.
Maybe this is a slightly odd question but I'm curious, what's your favorite form of fanmade content besides gifs? I love a good gif but it's also interesting to see what else people create, and I'm curious what you think! - 🧸
nooo omg it's okay !! i hope it was a good crazy and not a bad one??? my week has been pretty good, i finished up christmas shopping and work actually hasn't been super crazy even though it's the holidays so that's good !! how about you ?

‘Change’ MV analysis
I dunno what came to me to do this, but leggo. btw, most of it will be relating to Namjoon, although it may be arguable that Wale has experienced similar situations as Namjoon has as an artist/rapper and former student. Also, I tried to find gifs to make it more pleasing so here is a mix of bad screenshots and gifs to make this analysis more pleasing.
Sorry for any spelling/grammatical errors. This is my first analysis on an mv and I’m not really sure if I got everything across. If you want, you can add onto it. :3
Already, you notice that the beginning of the mv is in black and white and the music starts off with a sort of jazzy/blue tune being “played” by a vinyl record. This can mean two things.
The black and white can represent the kind of pessimism many of us feel about the world and the vinyl is us trying to reach back to the past (our own past when we didn’t have to worry or even were aware of these problems), so the music that starts it off is also a recollection to when we used to think the “times were good.” The black and white in this case can also represent our own past view of the world: we use to thing thinks are black and white- there’s always a good side and a bad side that was easy to differentiate.
At the same time, the black and white and vinyl can mean that the problems of society aren’t as new as many people assume. Several old movies and photos in the past are in black and white and vinyls are one of the many things people use as an aesthetic to represent the past, and so this can also represent how far society’s problems have become so embedded into our lives and how they’ve been forgotten like the past.
Even with the black and white aesthetics, there’s elements of light and darkness used in the warehouse. We see these film lights brightly shining down from the and even light coming from the windows as Namjoon raps; however, there are moments where Namjoon hides himself through shadows he creates with his arm or the shadows the building has. This can represent how authority will do whatever they can to hide truths that can destroy the system that kept them in power, even by using the lights (representing a way to reveal truth to many) itself to create shadows to hide. This is similar to how media outlets (hence, the film lights) is a double edged sword where the media has both the power to reveal the truth unbiased and the power hide it via propaganda or “distraction”. Despite all this, Namjoon cannot hide his face from the water on the ground, which reflects his face, and this can also represent how despite his attempts at hiding, the truth will eventually unveil no matter what.
The scene in the gif is also very interesting to look at, as he briefly steps onto a scene behind the one he’s in before. This brief transition can represent how Namjoon’s attempts at hiding from the lights is becoming known outside of the warehouse, and can symbolize the realization that what we used as a way to empower us and make us more aware of the world and truths is also being used against us, and we are becoming aware of this abuse. Yet, it’s brief, as the media outlets uses its power to hide information comes back into play and Namjoon steps back into the warehouse scene. However, that scene continues to play in the back, as if that brief reveal was not completely forgotten.
The scene in the back also represents the connection to real life and the problems addressed in the song. It’s its way of saying “this had and is currently happening.”This emphasis is even more pronounced as parts of the scene in the back would merge with the scene in front, to further show the connection.
Now let’s talk about the 6 people that appear in the MV alongside Wale and Namjoon.
The first is a cleaner, possibly working with (most likely) low pay. In America (and possibly in many other places of the world- I’m not entirely sure), one of the many issues often discussed is the idea of a higher minimum wage due to the inflation of living necessities and high job competition causing many, especially young and fresh-out-of-college, individuals to take on low paying jobs that have little to do with their career goals or what they studied for. Obviously she doesn’t want to do this, but has to in order to survive financially. This is seen on the inside of Namjoon, possibly reflecting on his personal past having to deal with the inevitable competition and possibly be ridiculed for being unable to get a “secure and respected” job, which is what the cleaner also probably is facing. (he even implies this problem with BTS in Bapsae).
Eventually, we see her still working as cleaning person but with a better uniform. She appears happier (not seen in this screenshot, but it’s in the mv) as if she now has a higher pay to take care of herself. Unlike the last scene, where she puts her mop down, she shows her mop and reveals the stains she was cleaning. This can represent the willingness to reveal the problems, no matter how dirty, that had plagued both her and society when it comes to workers.
The second is a tattoo artist. In Korea, tattoos are seen as taboo, so much that anything on the body that appears to be a tattoo on TV is censored. Even in other countries, many people would be intimidated by anyone who has tattoos and some individuals even have their own job applications denied because their employers simply denied them for having tattoos. Tattoos, like many works of art, are a way to express individuality; and yet rather than celebrating it, it is stigmatized instead. The tattoo artist is seen as stand-offish, as he is seen as a social outcast due to his choice to be unique and secretly tattooing himself, only to glare when he is noticed. This is also placed in Namjoon’s silhouette and can also reflect into Namjoon’s mind as he chose to be an idol, compared to the conventional 9-5 office job that guarantees decent pay, and how he too has experienced a similar situation for choosing to be different and having a different artistic style that doesn’t flow with the status quo; Namjoon has talked about his mother initially being against him writing lyrics and becoming an artist, and that B-Free diss where B-Free talked about how BTS weren’t actual rappers because they wear makeup and don’t fit the “appearance” of a rapper.
He later faces the camera, fully tattooed, as if he is willing to show his individuality. The red lights in the background can symbolize his passion growing and becoming prominent, or even his individuality becoming praised instead of ridiculed. While the first scene showed him working in black and white with a dim yellow coming from the lamp, he’s now seen in color and with a bright red emitting behind him.
The girl and boy represents the typical students, possibly of good standing and following the social norms and status quo in hopes that their future will be okay; and by future, their minds has been shaped to believe that following the 9-5 work day and having financial stability will give them happiness. However, for the first scene with the girl, despite being conditioned to follow the line, we first see her looking back at the tattoo artist. She’s tempted to be unique, but she doesn’t want to risk her possible “happiness” to be taken away because she failed to toe the line. On to of that, the obvious pressure to follow it is also taking a tow on her. She’s grim about her situation despite being motivated to have her “happy future.” This can also mean that she is realizing that financial stability and sticking to the status quo does not guarantee happiness. This can connect to many of us today, as we start to wonder if material items like wealth and riches guarantee actual happiness.
The problem is not exclusive to her, as she and shares the same thing with the male student. As an escape, the two of them wear VR head sets and the female student is seen watching TV. Virtual reality, of course, allows the user to see a different world and choose which kind of world to see, even allowing them to interact with it. The wires that hang around are seen strewn as if it’s feeding her and she is seen dosing off. More on the wires when we talk about the worker. This relates to how many of us, especially students, see media and technology as also an escape from the pressures and stress caused by social problems.
If you notice, as the video progresses, color is subtly being put into the video before color is fully put into the video. First with the light the tattoo artist has behind him, and now the student with a yellow pencil and a green bow. This is just right before the line “world is gonna change.” I’ll talk about color and that later.
The politician. Obviously, politicians stereotypically are known to be corrupt individuals who do whatever they can to be in power. In order to do so, regardless of their tactics, politicians have to gain the people’s trust. They do this by being well dressed, well groomed, well known, following the status quo, possibly even appearing to be a parental individual who seemingly care for the citizens and reach out to many. This politician appears to have it all and possibly appears to be a good candidate based on looks: he has a tailored suit on, a beard (like he’s a kind old grandpa warmly yet with with authority talking) and speaking to many microphones and cameras are flashing. Remember how I said the lights can represent truth and it being revealed through an outlet? That camera flash can represent both the popularity the politician is known for and a reveal that would also end his career.
Light is fully on the politician, showing possibly his corruption coming into light. He smokes a cigar as both a way to flaunt off the rewards he received from corruption but to also show the consequences of his actions. His career is dying, and so is his reputation now that it has come to light. Sure, he looks like he has power, with his suit, but, as you can see from his hand cuffs, he’s probably lost it all. He’s being controlled by someone; the someone who offered him the power he wanted in exchange for some control, but eventually took over themselves. The beard that he had is gone, revealing more of his face and possibly more of his secret actions. His suit is unbuttoned to show that he’s slowly coming apart and his image of a trusting leader is disappearing.
And finally, the worker. Just like the students, he was probably the one that stuck to the status quo, and unlike the cleaner, he was able to get that financial stability and so called “happiness.” However, like the students, he also starts to realize that what society calls happiness is not what he wants. Despite this, he distracts himself from the problem by continuing to stare at the screen and working.The shades of blue on his shirt and pens can represent his intelligence hidden by the monotonous lifestyle of the 9 to 5. Blue is also seen as a color commonly used for business, as it represents trust and dependability and many use blue as a psychological tactic in advertising and people looking for jobs would often use blue in the applications to stand out more. The worker, cleaner, tattoo artist, and students can really connect to Namjoon and possibly Wale’s struggles with society’s pressure in sticking to the status quo and fear of being ridiculed for failing to do so.
Later, we see the worker tied up in cords and cables (compared to the student simply lounging on the cables near the tvs). The job, despite offering security, is dead-end and he is too worked up in his job to realize or even escape from it. In a way, the cables that were with the student is a foreshadow of her future that would be the worker now. He doesn’t struggle, either because he realizes that it’s too late or he isn’t aware that he is trapped (most likely the latter because his hands continue to twitch as if the keyboard is in front of him). The jacket of his suit is taken off, representing the skills and intelligence he thought would be of good use to his job taken away by the lack of motivation and passion he experienced. Only his blue pants remained, which is whatever individuality he still has- but it’s not enough to make him be truly himself anymore.
Remember when I talked to you about color and how it was subtly put into the music video before Wale comes in? That can be interpreted into two different things.
Let’s start with the first thing:
In a way, Namjoon’s world is represented by the black and white scenes that first appear. The black and white can symbolize his own singular views of the world, not changed yet by other views of the world but slowly becoming part of his views until Wale comes in. Wale is seen in a bold color (green, then red, etc), compared to the more muted colors that appear in Namjoon’s scenes.
Colors, now, besides representing pessimism or the past, can also represent the viewpoints that both Namjoon and Wale have seen and eventually influence their own views.
Like Namjoon’s brief step into the scene playing behind him and the scenes still playing after that, Wale’s way of showing the connection is by projecting scenes behind him. The light that Wale stands on shows that he controls how he sees the world, as oppose to Namjoon being shined with light that is above him, and how he tries to reveal truth through the outlets himself. Unlike the lit warehouse we see before with Namjoon, there seems to be only three sources of light, two which shows reality and one where Wale stands on. This also emphasizes the control Wale have with how he wants the world to see him rather than have it manipulated by others, especially those who want to belittle or hide the truths he wants to reveal. Wale shows that he has nothing to hide, as he stands behind a white background that also represents light being shone on him. In fact, the other scenes of the 6 different characters in full color show them with one light source instead of multiple.
There are moments where Wale is more predominantly a swatch of color or when he is a variety instead, representing his own view point in comparison with others. That means that even if he has many influences and sees many views, it’s him who decides his own opinions and views, which is represented as a single color instead of many. Occasionally, you see that the video gets “tampered” with for a few moments (like the screenshot above) by glitching or adding other colors before switching back to what it was before, as if someone is trying to change his views, change other people’s perceptions of him or silence him, but he still sticks to what he believes in and stays true to himself while managing to share his opinions.
Namjoon joins in, as we see him now in full color and, like Wale in green, Namjoon is seen in red. Someone also tries to tamper with him by adding static, glitching the video, and trying to make both him and Wale fade, but they remain. Because Namjoon now has color, or more views of the world compared to his black and white view before, the people we see before are now in color. On top of that, what they become or the truth behind them are also revealed.
Wale and Namjoon at the end are seen together in the same warehouse again. This time, none of the film lights or the window lights are there. Light, however, is revolving around them and camera flashes are seen. However, they don’t hide from them because they know that regardless of that the media outlet does, they both are simply revealing the truth of themselves. The puddles of water on the floor remains to prove their point. Even when their clothes are black and white, like the video in the beginning, color is still around them, showing that their unique views and mindset remain and what the wear represents their past with pessimism and a limited viewpoint. Rather than hide it, they wear it as a sign of their growth.
Which brings the second thing:
As you noticed, the lyrics themselves are full of heavy topics like racism, hate, broken education systems, dreams that can no longer be achieved due to changes in time, questionable social norms, etc. Yet, despite it all, there’s one line that shines from the pessimism these topics bring.
“World is gonna change.”
There’s a reason why color begins to appear as the first time this line is heard. Despite the negativity that Namjoon raps about in the beginning, rather than saying “we’re fucked” he implies that there is hope. As black and white represents pessimism, color can represent optimism. As black and white represents a past that might never change, color represents a future that has changes for the better. However, we also have to remember that black and white are also colors, like how “black and white” views are just as valid as the “multiple colors” views of the world. While some parts show them being fully integrated with colors, there are still black and white elements used to balance or even use as a sort of secondary color for the brighter ones.
In the end, we see that the whole video is colored, yet Namjoon and Wale wear black and white, to show that the view of the world shouldn’t just only be optimistic or pessimistic. In fact, it should be balanced. When many works of art often give an “unbalanced” view of the world (mostly sending a message of pessimism about the world’s problems), ‘Change’ proves something not commonly spoken about. We often see people via mediums of art or communication talk about how the world is already destroyed to the point of no return and we shouldn’t spend out time and energy trying to find a solution that we believe does not exist. On the other side, there are those who idealistically talk about the world becoming better without any kind of solid plan or awareness of what the problem really is. That’s where we need the balance.
As pessimism shows us the problems, optimism motivates us to find the solution. Even in the lyrics themselves have hints of optimism sprinkled throughout the song besides the chorus, and the music video shows this through color. Even with the colored scenes of the 6 characters, we notice that the cleaner is now happy that she is paid well, possibly no longer ashamed of her situation, and the tattoo artist finally opens himself up to reveal his tattoos without hiding them. These shows the changes that were made in the world that was for the better; small changes that still have unsolved problems, but enough to make the world a bit better than before.
So in conclusion? aka tl;dr
‘Change’ and its music video discusses about the problems prevalent in society but also sends a message of optimism and a better future ahead, along with the need for both optimism and pessimism to help us create change. We can start by becoming more aware and open to many views of the world while also maintaining our own individuality and the truth. The colors and lights play a major role in proving this message as it can represent how different opinions can help shape ourselves, help us develop more as individuals, change our perceptions, and show how we need pessimism to reality check while we need optimism to set our goals and guide us to a better tomorrow.
Would the change take time and require a lot of work? Yes. Will there be failures before success comes? Many of them for sure. Will change happen? Absolutely.
So long as we keep this balance and remember our goal, we can change the world for the better. The turmoils we experience now does not have to continue tomorrow, but only if we are willing to work and continue working.

is it just me or does the styling for this comeback so far seem all over the place and just kind of.... thrown together :/ like they’re really forcing the dark mature silhouettes with like animal print, metallic hardware and bright colours in a way tht doesn’t feel cohesive at all. it’s like they said how can we be fun.... but edgy at the same time nd came up with the worst manifestation of that concept possible 🤕
#like maybe im just being nitpicky but it rly threw me off that they put seokjin in .. a BROWN leather harness#for mayhaps no other reason than to just be different like dsjhfjshd it waters down the whole aesthetic imo#nd also jimins stage shirt made no sense to me lmao!!!#like i greatly preferred the dna styling bc it 1) just good styling and 2) made sense w the concept#but then again weve only seen one stage and the mv so! dont wanna jumpt to conclusions too quickly#hhdfs okay rant over :/ just thot id share to see if anyone felt the same way#sara.txt

SAME ANON AS BEFORE RE:MAXIDENT ALBUM, I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR UR THOUGHTS!! BUT ALSO SO HAPPY U PULLED CHANGBIN!!! (assuming he’s ur bias and all)
the album is so!!! interesting!!!! every track is a love song in its own type of way (except super board which is just.... nyooom???) so everything has a pink skz flare, unsure how else to describe it... there was so much anticipation with maxident given oddinary's success, and i think this album was a great follow-up!!!! the vibes are there, the aesthetics are there..... i'm gonna talk abt the tracks in order since i feel so differently about each of them fjksjsmjn i.e. no mv talk bc only case 143 came out & pink-seungmin makes me well up with tears. but heart monsters are so cute i cannot WAIT to own one 🥺💜
1. case 143
WHAT A TITLE SONG!!!! let me just reference this article that describes it as "a love song for someone who gets easily distracted" bc THAT'S ME!!!! SO MUCH IS HAPPENING!!! it has the same build as maniac, felix in the first chorus and then hyunjin in the second, verses of raps weaved expertly between each other, a strange sweetness in the oddity that the last album branded them with. there's so much story in the song, the concept of investigation and crime and this chase that this unexplainable emotion is spurring them into. this song has SURPRISES! literally, the BOOM & BANGS!!! the police sirens!!!! changbin's "can i be your boyfriend" & "no cap" have not left my brain!! other honorable mentions: chan's abcdefg?? SEUNGMIN'S BRIDGE???? anyway it has wormed its way onto my top5 fav skz title tracks <3
2. chill
there's nostalgia to this song? i have no idea where it comes from, maybe it's from an old kpop song or another skz track.... and there's a saxophone??? like HUH WHAT WOW?? jisung's tracks (even though i can't name others specifically lol) seem to have a dreamy quality to them, the lo-fi sound making them perfect for drives with ur windows down. like, i think this is a good song to show to a non-kpop or skz listener? it's solid! the music! the vocals!! it's actually a breakup song & even without really knowing what the lyrics are, there's a bittersweetness to the performance that gives u sentimentality? The Vibes are Immaculate
3. give me your TMI
whoever the FUCK is in the chorus as background vocals, we need to SPEAK. it's funky garage noise!! it's background music for a heist!!!! changbin's intro rap reminds me of the impression that thunderous left on me, the dude just spitting & me going wild with it. he literally can go "ding dong daeng" for 3hrs straight & i'd listen to it. also, i can't believe this song is 2YRS OLD?? IN THE LAPTOP FOR THAT LONG??? so the whole point is "I Am Curious About You" & it just. HITS. it WORKS. like what is GOING ON with this song?? it might be my fav off the album solely for how confused it makes me feel. AND THE BRIDGE?!!!! i am a SUCKER for a bridge that slows it down with honey vocals (2min, i'm aching for u) KIM SEUNGMIN HAS MY WHOOOOOOOOLE HEART
4. super board
completely candid i am not a fan of this type of sound :| it's not my style, where there's less melody in favor of more noise (no shade but think nct127). but it's still a fun song!!! the nyooom is so silly to me; there's a playfulness to it that fits the album!! it's like a dialed back version of cheese, if that makes sense? it's literally for skaters. this is definitely the most experimental of the tracks & maybe it'll grow more on me? who knows lmao
5. 3racha
"1 2 3 racha get spotlight" WOW this is just 3min 28sec of 3racha bragging & i lie down at their feet for that. Good For Them! before maxident dropped i've been obsessed with heyday & whatever "i'm stacking EXP just like a mountain" means. and the DRRRR POW noise. and that bed squeaking noise that has an actual term that i can never FUCKING REMEMBER... ANYWA 3RACHA SUPREMACY.,..,.,, producer trio doing the MOST! i love how chan raps in english, gets to do witty play on words just like binsung can in korean, being AUSSIE AS HELL. iconic lines: "my boys spittin' facts they locked & loaded" & "y u mad brah?" *gunshots* *dies*
6. taste
seeing red lights ot8 made listening to this song make me go, oh. it isn't-- this song isn't quite a sequel to red lights, which is more desperate & dark imo. this song is taunting, inviting. this song exudes a certain ambience that is, to put it simply, sensually sexual. dimly lit bedroom with rose petals scattered everywhere you can see. which yknow. yeah. what the fuck can i say. what the fuck. skz what the fuck.
7. can't stop
this is aftercare after 3racha & taste, which i agree to wholeheartedly. i'm literally crying listening to this song, which by no means is a song to cry to! it's so sweet!! i love vocalracha!! i love that they chose to showcase themselves in this upbeat, cute & wholesome confession song!!! don't get me wrong about the angsty ballads; they have a time & place but WE NEED A SONG OF PURE JOY & EXCITEMENT IN THIS ALBUM!!! AND THIS IS IT!!!!!!!!!!!! frolicking through meadows sort of vibe at the end of a coming-of-age kdrama movie. i'm still crying.
8. circus (krn ver)
i loved this song in japanese & that rings true for the korean version too!!! it throws me off hearing it in a language i'm more familiar with since i've had the original version on repeat lol i don't normally listen to kpop group's japanese releases but this was an exception! i love all the elements of the circus they build into the song, the animals, the fire, the fanfare, the lyric painting with the iconic carny tune... geez this song is so GOOD for WHAT
tl;dr maxident is stuck in my ears for the foreseeable future & i'm a seungbin stan who has yet to pull a seungmin T.T
#anon#reply#stray kids#maxident#when i get the rest of my albums.....!!!!!!#this is why i can't do twitter i have no ability to talk abt things i like unless someone prods me with a stick

LMAO i wanna see them do something like exo’s wolf + growl drama mv. like i wanna see taeyong and doyoung/jaehyun fight over a girl and then a gang comes in and kidnaps the girl so they have to set aside their differences to rescue the girl or smth like that hahahahaha. since exo did werewolves, nct can be vampires lmaoooo
7. if you could spend the day with one member, who would it be and what would you do?
johnny. i think he’s cool and me and him would vibe honestly. maybe. i’d go explore the city with him or something
8. which member do you think you’d get along with best?
uhhh. prob johnny. we just mind our own businesses i feel like. jaehyun’s personality is cool too i just can only handle him in small doses at a time
9. which member do you think you’d argue with the most?
haechan. he’s loud and proud and is sometimes Too Much. which is not a bad thing, but when i’m in a bad mood that would bug me. like no hate toward him at all
10. if you had to let one member scroll through your tumblr, who would it be?
taeil! i feel like he’d judge me the least out of everybody lol

han’s Entire Thoughts and Feelings on CLC’s “Devil”
THEYRE BACK SO IM ALSO BACK ON MY BULLS HIT STAYING UP UNTIL 2AM TO WATCH IT AS SOON AS ITS UP aka its TIME AGAIN to be a loud CHESHIRE™ ON TEXT POST
there are no read mores here so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ its my brand
ALRIGHT SO-
THE SONG IS A FUNKY JAZZY BOP™ AND A HALF its the kind of song you just literally BOUNCE in your seat and make you sway from side to side THAT CHORUS IS INSTANTLY CATCHY AND ADDICTING TO LISTEN TO i love the guitar and horns and that weird laser whistle sound????? so much throughout the song!!!!!!! theres a part that goes ‘i tried to be so polite’ that elkie and seungyeon sinGS UUUUUUUUUUGGGHH THATS SO SATISFYING TO MY EARS THERES SO MUCH SEUNGHEE I NEARLY CRIED SHE SINGS THE CHORUS TWO (2) TIMES HER TONE IS INCREDIBLE AND WHEN SORN SINGS IT AFTER AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA- (THE SECOND CHORUS WITH YUJIN IS FANTASTIC TOO) YEEUNS RAP OKAY LISTEN I LOVE HER RAP BREAKS IN THE MIDDLE OF THEIR SONGS AND THIS ONE DID NOT DISAPPOINT THAT INSTRUMENTAL BREAK PUNCHED ME AND THERES MORE YUJIN AND EUNBIN!!!!!!! THEY KILLED THEIR PARTS THEY WERE SO GOOD!!!!!!!!!!! no im not gonna talk about seunghees breath from the first second we know how i feel
THAT BRIDGE with eunbin and elkie was pretty interesting it stays upbeat and it passes really quickly i dunno why but it felt a little off??? i dunno why??? it just does to me??? i feel like it ends too soon??? just a smidge tho- and it barely makes it to three (3) minutes???? (no is about the same length) but im still BOPPING
sidenote: apparently seunghee mentioned (i dunno where tho) that this song is similar to pepe and that sure is true lmao
THE DANCE remember when i just mentioned how it makes you wanna bounce and sway WELL THATS BC theres a move in the chorus that does just THAT!!!!!! the moment i saw it i copied the move like I GOTTA IN FACT the choreography for the entire chorus is SO fitting like its just lots of hip and shoulder movement BUT it just feels so RIGHT- during yeeuns rap part theres a little bit of a move they did thats similar in their song ME and lowkey i thought that was cool!!
THERES SOMETHING ABOUT that hip move that murders like the way they swivel around first and their hand movement with it and then leading into the side to side just SO SATISFYING TO WATCH especially during the last part in that darker setting!!!!!!!
seunghee starts the dance............................... thanks........ the dancing during eunbin and elkies parts during the bridge was lowkey kinda funny but i found myself following and copying it like sticking my hands out like they did in the video BUT overall it goes with the vibe of the song VERY well!!!!
THE VISUALS the overall video premise reminds me red velvets russian roulette like they are REALLY trying to KILL EACH OTHER IN THIS MV (or at least injure each other) with the soap slipping pushing sorn off that chair dropping that thing on yeeuns head that vacuum literally THROWING DARTS and LIGHTING FIRES and THE MOST DANGEROUS OF ALL....................... stepping on legos.........
SUPER COLORFUL............................ BUT FINISH IT WITH BLACK AND DARKNESS i thought that was interesting LIKE i knew it was coming from the teaser images but i DONT HATE IT the song is called ‘devil’ after all going all dark and lowkey menacing at the end is welcomed here!!!!!! i feel like its supposed to lowkey represent their concepts from debut to now yknow???
I LOVE ALL THE BRIGHT COLORS THO especially the yellows and pinks BUT THEN paired with colors like that blue and green and salmon color or whatever like THAT is just P L E A S I N G™ to my eyes there was ALWAYS a bit of all these colors in nearly ever scene and theres just so mucH BALANCE its pretty refreshing™ if you ask me
BUT THAT ENDING WITH ALL THAT LOWKEY CREEPY (but like not really) PROPS LIKE ALL THOSE BARBIE HEADS AND EYES LIKE THATS AESTHETIC™
SOME SCENES THAT I LIKED AND WANNA MENTION:
FIRST SCENE WITH THE ALL OF THEM AT THE TABLE SURROUNDED BY DESSERTS I WAS HOOKED I KNEW I WASNT GOING TO LOOK AWAY FOR A SECOND
FIRST DANCE SCENE WITH THE BLUE AND PEACH COLOR OR WHATEVER COLOR THAT IS 👌
THE BATHROOM WITH THE HOT PINK WHERE SEUNGYEON AND YUJIN WERE IN and then made her fall over with the soap and seungyeon acted like she was eating it in the middle of a bathroom
THE ROOM SEUNGHEE AND SORN WERE IN WITH THE YELLOW CHAIR (love putting her in yellow chairs i guess) nearly lighting her on fire seunghees face after makes me laugh lmao
THE DARK GREEN AND ORANGE.............................. Y E S
THAT ALL YELLOW ROOM ELKIE AND EUNBIN WERE IN and it contrasted with elkies bright pink dress and eunbins darker outfit my eyes feel so blessed™
THE DARK SCENE LIKE THEYRE IN A HAUNTED MANSION WITH THE FLASHING LIGHTS I LOVE-
I CANT EVEN DESCRIBE IT I JUST LOVE LOOKING AT THEM
(okay but that chair sorn was on only had one leg i just wanted to mention)
AKA I LOVE EVERY SCENE I LOVE THIS C H A O S™
T H E M
OKAY DENIM ON DENIM YOU DIDNT HAVE TO ATTACK ME LIKE THAT™ AND the construction boots????? really?????? in front of my carton of barbie heads?????? YOU ABOUT TO MAKE ME WORK FROM HOME????? why would you do this if you KNOW HOW I FEEL????? but................... thank you i owe yoU MY LIFE- maybe its just me but at the moment ive been really feeling more brighter things so this.................... is some good food and like i know theyre supposed to be menacing but those black outfits make them look like an all-female biker gang more than anything-
also LEGS™
you usually save the best for last HOWEVER SEUNGHEE a whole WOMAN™ SHE REALLY KILLED ME THIS TIME AROUND i mean is there a time she doesnt kill me lets be real FIRST OF ALL BLACK HAIR BUT ITS STILL THE SAME LENGTH THANK YOU that dark green dress just suits her SO well!!!!!!!!!! also i just love green SO CLASSY™ with the headband and black heels pls- THAT light blue denim on denim with black crop top with the little pony tail...................... at ease i LOVE that look on her so much i dont think yall understand!!!!!!! then the BLACK DRESS!!!!!!!!!! the shoulders out!!!!!!!!!!! the thigh high boots!!!!!!!!!! when she does that dance move with her hips her figure accentuated by her belt.................. at ease x2 (also that one second of a scene where shes smiling over her shoulder in the black outfit i just wanted to mention-)
yujin pls that pink plaid outfit with the pink heels with your purple beret youre sO CUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LISTEN that denim with the crop top jacket???? with the orange and pink twin braids I CANT SHE LOOKED SO GOOD WITH THAT OUTFIT ON AND THEN THE BLACK LEATHER (is it leather) and the little two BUNS ON THE TOP OF HER HEAD!!!!!!!! A LOOK™!!!!!!!!!! i just always always think shes just so cute but also so fierce????? it breaks my neck i dunno how to describe it i just really like her face????
SEUNGYEON BETTER LEAVE ME THE HELL ALONE WITH THAT PINK AND GOLD TOP WITH THE BLACK SKIRT STUNTING WITH HER BEAUTIFUL TAN SKIN she looks so so SO GOOD with the short hair BUT LIKE i love that hairstyle in general so thats to the SURPRISE OF NO ONE shes wearing a darker blue denim but i cant understand the shirt??? is it a jacket wrapped around like a shirt??? so the black outfit with the leather shorts and then she threw the jacket at the camera like the Baddie™ she is................ thanks-
must you be so beautiful sorn??? the braids with the clips in the dark denim with the black crop top i cANT- THIS HAIR COLOR IS STUNNING ON HER I DUNNO HOW TO DESCRIBE THAT COLOR BUT IT LOOKS SO GOOD SHE IS SO FINE™ DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THAT YELLOW FIT WITH THE PLAID YELLOW BERET HOW COULD SHE LOOK SO GOOD WITH SO MUCH YELLOW ON????? that black outfit with the single bun on the top of her head and her hair is like super straight and the boots to her knees im SO-
yeeun you always kept your bob pls keep iT FOREVER- the one piece dark blue denim with that big green clip in your hair YOU MAY BE FIERCE BUT JUST LIKE YUJIN YOURE CUTE™ that red dress with the black heels and then they gave???? you extensions???? for your high pony tail with the black bow??? its cute but i mean i feel like that wasnt needed??? it wouldve looked great with just her short hair i dunno fashion FINALLY the last black outfit with the black hat and one glove and black boots that outfit HITS like pls punch me
DOES ELKIE JUST............... HAVE TO look like a princess?????? like she just always looks like a princess i cant explain it!!!!!!!!! SHE JUST FEELS SO PRINCESS-LIKE honestly i feel like its bc whenever they kinda make her hair wavy or something like that it just makes her more classy looking??? the denim two piece and her skirt is actually half light and half dark blue honestly thats a Look™ its cute!!! that hot pink dress with the one sleeve im HERE FOR IT!!!!!! PLS SHE LOOKS SO CLASSY!!!!! the black outfit is just a black dress BUT the black combat boots and her silver accessories like literally kill me with that hammer youre so stunning™-
so we agree that eunbin took that pink wig from jisoo right?? from ddu-du ddu-du?? jk but IM SO GLAD TO SEE HER MORE IN THIS MUSIC VIDEO!!!!!!!!!! WITH MORE LINES!!!!!!!!!! ANYWAY the light blue was fitted rather loosely but it still looked SO BOMB ON HER and her hair was so straight and that really made that whole Look™ that black dress with her kinda messy hair with combat boots while she was vacuuming elkies hair is an ABSOLUTE LEWK™ I LIKE IT A LOT!!!!! but seriously something about that pink bob is like............... im not sure if i like it??? i think i do??? the grey hat and fringe really pulls that whole look together honestly
tldr: *chefs kiss*
LIKE this was their style and sound of music i believe in the beginning and its nice to hear it again in a new way!!!! its fun and the instrumental even after listening to it so many times im still dancing along with it!!!!!!! i slept late as hell (bc yknow i had to watch this mv) and had to wake up hella early but I AM PUMPED FOR THE REST OF MY DAY!!!!! i mean like no which also barely hits three (3) minutes but im sure just like with no im not gonna mind that duration
IN CONCLUSION: MY MOOD WAS LIFTED TENFOLD LISTENING TO THIS I FEEL SO ALIVE NOW
#posting early im busy today lmao#theres are becoming longer as we move along im noticing lmao#i never complain here lmao#literally i NEVER do#clc#not dc#han.txt#han's mv afterthoughts#nvm id rather have a long essay the original looked ugly on mobile

oh! do you have a project or an exam soon? also what are you studying? and thank you! napping is everything, usually i sleep bad at night bc nightmares and stuff so a good nap always help. indeed! my i is one of the most artistics mvs they have imo, highlight is really beautiful as well, speaking of perf unit songs ofc. what are your fav vocal/hip hop unit songs? wow! i totally get you, when they perform jun and hanni's expressions are my favs, they know how to intensify a choreo 1/2 🍰-sss
ahh s coups, he startled me. at first i though he was a goofy nice guy and then when svt debuted and *heart emoji*. from his sweet smile to the way he always try to keep them together. i love this interview he gave a year or two ago, he said he always take into consideration what is better for seventeen and then what the company might want. Even though sometimes they need to follow a schedule he'll always try to benefit his members 2/3 srry this is taking way to long!! 🍰-sss
ok this is the last one! s coups improved a lot with his dancing skill. he's really hardworking and i appreciate that a lot, also he took care of his knee to be able to keep up with the others. i hope he's resting and taking care of his health in general. btw i watched the fancam you told me, so mesmerizing! going svt has a lot of episodes now, so i understand it takes time >.
ok this was all sooooo cute i love seeing people talk excitedly about things they love 😭😭😭 so don’t worry about the lenght of it!! (esp bc i myself also ramble a lot lmao)
i study web systems! also graphic design! first is college, second is just a course. and i have a college work due friday and also an exam in like two weeks or something but uhhhhh too lazy to study lmao do you study anything? or work? or have a hobby?
and omg that sucks so much :( but i totally get you! i used to have nightmares all the time too or insomnia, that’s why i always changed the night for the day you know, like i’d be awake at night and then sleep the whole day bc i felt safer. also i’ve been sleeping listening to music since a kid bc otherwise i’ll be just too anxious to sleep :/ but i’m really sorry for this, it’s really tiring and painful not getting to sleep bc of stuff like that, so i hope you can find something that helps you eventually!
oh my fave vocal unit song is my overall fave svt song lmao it’s don’t listen in secret!! also for hh unit i absolutely LOVE the diamond edge version of lotto, but i also love space, trauma and lean on me. what about you??
but god i love seungcheol, it was SO cute reading all this, such a pure love makes my cold dead heart warm 😔😔💕 he’s really such an amazing dude, he deserves the whole workd and i absolutely love how a lot of cheol stans i know here on tumblr are really soft and full of love for him???? it’s really so adorable u guys are so cute!!!!!!
that fancam is everything to me honestly, i love it!! i have a lot of things on it that i could talk about, mingyu is cute, the part where wonwoo is dancing with joshua he’s cute, jun??/?? did that, also shining diamond is one of my fave songs, i love that fancam kdjankjsd
and ohhhh, i’ve been asking for the classy sexy concept for the longest time, so i was really happy about fear!! i’m also a big fan of vixx and i was REALLY pleased about how much fear reminded me of their aesthetic in general. the classy sexy concept is my fave thing in kpop honestly (vixx in general since chained up, adtoy, amazing bad lady, some things monsta x released like beautiful, stuff like that) so i’m just really happy now and i don’t really know another concept/aesthetic i would like lmao i also like dark/horror ones (also vixx LMAO and dreamcatcher) but idk if svt would be willing to do that rip what about you?? OH OH OH, i’d love a retro concept?? like lady from exid, something that reminds me of the 90s, or maybe some disco stuff like platonic love from snuper, or even really funky stuff like giddy up from the boyz
#i really dislike trophouse and mainstream edm like dwc and thanks so i dont want anything like that anymore lmao#there's also a trend with bgs now where the songs have too much noise and beat drops that i really dislike#hopefully svt won't go there lmao#i didn't rlly like getting closer at first but i enjoy it now so it's all good#🍰 sss#sss19#long post#long text#anon#asks

Alexa: bold Alex: italic
today you are reacting to... BlackPink!
o damn, are you sure this band isn’t your favourite?
pFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFT- ok, good one, anyway this is them :3
((she tried sending me a picture but it didn’t work))
awh come oN

dfgfd shhhHhhHhH i know wot im doin smdh. this is alreaDY GOING BADLY
...should i just google them?
its okay, i got it. this is them
o damn. they're very pretty, but that was to be expected
yep.. so what concept do you think they have? lol as if it isnt obvious
idk man three of them are giving me death glares. uhh black? and pink?
tbh,,,,,they have the girl crush concept, like, theyre all badass and stuff
oh, well that’s.. interesting
i cant believe im letting you edit this post.. anyway, opinion on them? they dont look that similar, thank god
well the red-haired one i like the most so far since she doesn't look like she wants to choke me (and not in the kinky way)
fgjgfghj yes i see
the one wearing the 2b outfit is probably your goth waifu
omf
and the pink(TM) one looks like she's the sugar mommy of the group
m o o d
i'm guessing she's the leader? it could just be the thanos throne
they dont really have a leader.. this is also them
ah, lovely, a picture where they don't look like they want to murder me
yes, finally
a bunch of talented asian cuties, wot is new
to be honesT. i'll start with the first one from the second picture
alrighty
her stage name is rose
the first two from left to right are the prettiest imo
o rlly
i'm gonna get lynched alive for saying that, aren’t i
so, opinion?
she's uhhh 23? and a singer, and she's the goofy one
well youre right about her being a singer.. shes 21, and yes, she is pretty goofy. she is fluent in english because she is australian
n i c e
this is her kickin everyone's ass
((Then she showed me this video))
i-
skinny legend
and they said infinity war was the most ambitious crossover... asian idols wearing brazilian carnival outfits as some dude sings that song from shrek 2? sign me tf up
LMAOO gee her voice still gives me chills rose step on me

sorry i just like her shes also a good dancer
i'm guessing she's gonna be my favourite
o
english speaking idols get bonus points, and she seems to excel at everything else, so...
yes, she is amazing. oh, she also cried over her fish's death
;-; oof

SDFGFDSADFG MOOD
literally no one is gonna get that joke
wat if they do?
then they are people of culture
opinion?
uhh, she is the soft one, and.. she's short because why not, and she's 22 and she sings ;;
o- i mean, she isnt really tall, but she isnt that short. yes, she is a singer, the oldest, 23 y/o and she is a goofball, a derp. very entertaining tbh
she looks adorable and has a cute name and is a goofy dork god bless
all of them are good at english but her. but she Tries- and is confused.
o o f
tis a baby
she deserves all the hugs
she isnt the best dancer, but shes a Great singer, and very stable on stage
their hair alexa their hair is so fucking aesthetic
i KnoW
i am in pain, pack your dictionary we're moving to korea

abs of JUSTICE
hot diggidy she's the sass queen, and she's uh.. 23, and a rapper
oh, this is also her
she is also 21, and yes, a rapper!! a very swaggy one
jackpot
but shes a whole cutie, and the youngest
awh ;;
and she gets embarrassed easily
i see, so she's the tsundere of the group
she is from thailand, and i think shes fluent in four languages, including english
nice, man
she is also an Amazing dancer
n i c e , m a n
shes kinda my wife but theyre all my bias so i cannot decide it is Too Hard
i only have one bias u-u
ofc u do
remember to only have one waifu alexa, too many waifu will ruin your laifu

so far this is a very solid kpop band
o
lots of english speakers, cute dorks and pure babies everywhere
;-; yes
it has my seal of approval
n i c e the last member is jennie
o damn. jennie? j-just jennie?
just jennie. she doesn’t need anything else
is that an ACDC shirt
apparently
why do they all look so good and fashionable, and both glamorous and cute and pure at the same time, alexa the space-time continuum shouldn't allow this
pffft opinion?
hmm.. she's both a rapper and a singer, and uhh.. she's the second sassiest, but also a goof, and she's 23. I'LL STICK WITH MY 23 also damn nice thighs
she does have amazing thighs tbh.. WAIT HOW DO YOU KNOW SHES ALSO A RAPPER AND A SINGER
well usually in smaller kpop bands one of them does the support for both singing and rap..r-right?
,,,,,,,,,now that you say it
it finally happened folks, i taught alexa something about kpop
badass
THEY'RE ALL SO PURE, FUCC
THEY ARE, they have the badass girl crush concept, BUT THEYRE ALL FUCKIN CUTIES IRL also, take this
my poor heart
jennie is so smol ;; jennie is the smolest
i'm sorry, i was distracted by the thicc
mood tbh she is also fluent in english lmao
pack your shiT ALEXA WE'RE GOING TO KOREA
y ES theyre all really cute and entertaining, they dont go over the top, but theyre still pretty funny - as funny as a girl group can be anyway
pfft i find all of them entertaining tbh. show me some songs fam
o, alrighty. this is a dance practice, it was the first thing that was released and everyone went nuts
((Then she showed me the dance practice video))
lisa is the one with shorts, jennie has the cap, rose is the one with braids and the last one is jenniejisoo
oof, a bit too edgy for my taste, sorry. but the routine is great!
well, they were kinda made to be badass
yeah, i figured
also, a little side note
o?
their company is one of the biggest companies out there, but theyre known for their shitty management, as in, they dont really give idols many comebacks or promotions, so they dont have many songs;; even tho they debuted two years ago
well, that kinda sucks
yep..
i imagine this business is pretty finicky behind the scenes. i guess it can’t be all sugar and glitter all the time
true.. anyway, this is is one of the two songs in their debut ep lol
((Then she showed me “Whistle”))
also, may i add, their mvs are hella aesthetic
they seem to be.. not a fan of the super edgy american-ish songs though
yeh, their second ep was better. this is from the second ep
((Then she showed me “Playing With Fire”))
pyromaniac title, piano in the first second. this one's gon' be gud
yeah, this one was definitely better - well, not objectively, just imo
yeah then theres this beautiful beautiful song
((Then she showed me “Stay”))
that title gives me the hibby jibbies
y e p p
nvm i saw a mcdonalds in the background and now i'm chuckling
sdfdsdfg honestly the mv is So Pretty
ALEXA I DIDN'T SIGN UP FOR SAD TIMES
shhh its a nice lil song just dont read the lyrics lmao
...i'm reading the lyrics now I THOUGHT THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO BE A BADASS GROUP WHAT IS THIS
the chorus is so nice tho, with the claps
it is.. well, that was mildly depressing
at the end they hold hands and laugh and jump around in a circle in the mv and its just.. i rlly like the mv and the filter is very pretty
a e s t h e t i c
anyway, back to badass
((Then she showed me “Ddu-du Ddu-du”...?))
this is their most recent release, this time with a mini album
and i see thanos’s throne is back
y eS
these sets look expensive as fucc.. is that a fennec fox?
maybe..
and the evil parrot from rio? what is this, a crossover episode?
THE MOST AMBITIOUS CROSSOVER
first we had the shrek 2 song, now this they gon' hit me with dat turu turu du alexa halp meh
i k r wat u gon do
is that.. a sparkly tank?
y ES jennie is an icon
i feel like i've ascended
tbh all these things were so unnecessary yet they did it anyway
well i certainly don’t regret it
that breakdown at the end is kinda cheap, but i think the diamond tank made up for it
definitely
sdfvbvGJHGthere are two mvs left
oh, just.. just two?
y es
i feel bad for them ;; did u say it's been two years
yeah..
this is so r00d
yes, always feel bad for yg artists
what’s yg?
its a company - their company
ah, i see
their shitty company
oof
here's their debut song (which i dont really like but Oh Well.)
((Then she showed me “Boombaya”..? who the hell comes up with these names?))
well, in all fairness if they're one of the biggest they probably have a lot of bands to manage
not really.. they had very successful bands though, so that kinda paved the way for the ones nowadays
ALEXA THESE FUCKING LYRICS ARE KILLING ME
ASDFGBFVDS MOOD CLICK CLACK BADDABING BADDABOOM QUEEN
"i'm so hot i need a fan i don't want a boy i need a man" BISH YOU'RE A 5 FOOT 20-SOMETHING ASIAN IDOL CHILL
hjkjhghj shhHHH
this is a whole drugtrip
it iS

y ES fashion icon
why do coke when you can watch this for free and legally?
ikr theres one last mv, and its better, trust me
..alright...
theyre cute in this one
((Then she showed me “As If It’s Your Last”))
jisoo is the one with the heart magnet and i love her
awh ;; man these titles are edgier than 13 year old me

i just read this conspiracy thread on twt where they said jongdae was the traitor n i rewatched lucky one, monster and lotto and!!!!!! why is jongdae the only one with a covered face in monster? why was he on a big screen in lucky one? i may be teaching to far but my skin is vibrating!! evil!jongdae rise !
LAUGHIGN y’know I was like so close to making my first original text post in eighty four years just to explain my New MAMA AU Theory and how jongdae is the Traitor, but if someone else on twitter has already got it covered then maybe I’ll just leave it alone.
you’re not wrong tho! there are deliberate visual decisions made in monster/lucky one/lotto/power that all gesture to jongdae being singled out as a traitor/snake/spy. but if the twt thread already showed you the significant screen shots, then I won’t repeat what they said. however, there are two major plot holes in the whole conception of mama au so far - 1. for why is jongdae the traitor and what use does that even serve?, and 2. does sm particularly care enough to continue a storyline with coherency?
the power mv was interesting because it resolved like eighteen hundred plot holes in exo’s videography with simple comic book-esque solutions (everything!! is a planet, lmao), but it’s accompanying comic book pages didn’t serve to tell the audience shit about what sm wants to do. they’re all aesthetics cobbled together in a haphazard storyline, and sm is relying on fandom to tell them what it all says instead of instilling it with meaning in the first place.
and if we, the audience, figure out that “jongdae is the traitor” because it is so fucking obvious that he is, there’s a large chance that sm will backtrack and say NOPE!!! it was all red herrings!!!! it was [spins wheel] ksoo all along. and then sm will ask the audience to resolve why it was ksoo, even tho they clearly made visual choices around jongdae.
TL;DR - LOGICALLY JONGDAE IS THE TRAITOR, BUT SM PROBABLY DOESN’T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT LOGIC

DRAMARAMA: Who is Hyungwon? A theory
[Mark Lee’s voice] It’s a long ass ride
A very nice acc I follow on twitter talked about their theory that Hyungwon is a grim reaper in the storyline of Dramarama. At first, I agreed with them because of all the aesthetic and HW being talk as fuck like Lee Dong Wook’s character in Goblin. So let’s talk about tvN Goblin. Monsta X is probably the biggest fans of this drama since it was airing (btw, Lee Dong Wook is under the same company as them, they probably cried when crossed paths with in at Starship). Jooheon has been talking about dramas a few weeks ago, they did that hilarious skits in Monsta X Ray 2, the boys renacted the scenes from Goblin at: ISAC, Meet and Greet; Shownu did a CF as goblin himself, Kihyun sang Beautiful by Crush (from Goblin OST) at KCon Mexico (just hyping my boy rn lmao), etc. So yeah, big fans.
Back to HW’s role in Dramarama, I don’t think he’s a grim reaper. I think he IS a goblin, similar to Gong Yoo’s character in the tvN drama.
Hyungwon appears in the first Protocol Terminal Scene in a formal suit, which looks like a bit of vintage. His whole figure seems to be out of place and time. In Goblin, Kim Shin (Gong Yoo) leads an eternal life as a goblin due his desire for revenge, which very soon he realizes it’s more a curse than a blessing. He uses his endless time to help people (at least in the past as they show us) find their right path in life, giving advices about things that are about to go wrong in their lives so they can correct it. The goblin also has some skills: it rains when he’s sad,he can make flowers bloom, he can make gold, he can see the supernatural like ghosts, grim reapers, etc.
In these pictures, we can observe some things:
As I said, Hyungwon always seems out of place. Minhyuk and Changkyun and in casual modern clothes in the first picture above, those that people wear these days. In the second picture, Changkyun’s head is in Minhyuk’s shoulders in their second picture together released, and CK’s eyes are closed. His solo picture is faded, different from MH’s that is pretty focused on. Same thing happens to Wonho and Shownu’s picture together; WH’s side is almost completely fading away (the second one where they’re together). Also: Chankyung and Wonho are the only ones with their eyes closed in their photos with their partner. That could indicate that: a) their picture partner (or themselves) is dead and they’re struggling to deal with it (could be bc of guilt); b) they’re going to die and need help. Fields are commonly used in cinematography to represent passage to afterlife, ethereal dream-like scenarios. MH and CK’s story isn’t very clear, but when it comes to WH and SH’s, you can see them in a kendo gym (apparently. there’s wood swords beside them and they’re in almost full kendo uniform), then in Shownu’s solo picture he’s alone, still wearing the kendo uniform and probably still at the gym, with a sorrowful expression. They could be brothers, or just hoobae and sunbae (I don’t know the honorifics in kendo, sorry).
Kihyun and Jooheon are kind of a different story. They seem to be in the same boat, you could say. Behind their picture with Hyungwon, you can see a car with the front almost completely destroyed. It seems like they both were in the car when it crashed. Hyungwon in the middle, still in suit, looking at his watch. Again, at first glance one would say he’s definitely a grim reaper but wait, I’ll bring it back a bit later. Back to KH and JH, they’re not fading away, not even in their picture with HW (there’s a bit of some white fog around Kihyun but it’s small and idk if it’s just a filter effect?). In all of this, HW seems to be running out of time; he is seen holding a hourglass in one of the first teaser pictures, he’s looking at his watch in the picture below, looking impatient, and his solo picture actually comes paired with a picture of a hourglass. It could also be the case of the scene in the picture above HW, KH and JH. In Goblin, the female lead’s mother is run over by a car and she’s dying, but she prays for help so the goblin saves her. It could be a similar case with KH and JH, and maybe the others too.
In Jooheon and Kihyun’s second picture together (without Hyungwon), they’re on a road (probably the one where the accident took place), heading in opposite directions. It’s possible they have different opinions about something related to their possible death, or about what happened before the accident. They don’t seem to be in good terms. KH’s black and white picture could mean that he’s the one that died, or chose not to survive (I can’t see if his eyes are closed it’s too damn blurred) by not accepting help from the goblin but Jooheon made a different choice (his picture is colored, and he’s looking at something).
In the hourglass photo, in the right bottom you can see all the boys’ logos half highlighted (they’re probably near death) except Hyungwon’s. If he was indeed what I said, the fact that that indicate he isn’t alive it’s actually because he already died, coming back as a goblin. As matter of fact of him not being human, he doesn’t fit the pattern of life and death, that seems to be the theme of all these pictures.
@ hyungwonope, on twitter, also mentioned that you can see their individual logos highlighted on the right column. However, in the pictures which contain Hyungwon, his logo isn’t highlighted at all. You can notice that they don’t seem to acknowledge Hyungwon in the scenes. One of the beliefs in Korean mythology is that dokkaebis (goblins) also have the ability to become invisible to humans (by wearing a hat, but myths are always being modified), and actually there’s a lot of different types of dokkaebis. In Wikipedia and in other sites I’ve looked into this topic, there’s possible options: a) nat dokkaebi (they appear during daylight and usually interact with humans, even befriending them); b) chonggak dokkaebi (know to attract humans). But the question still stands: who is Hyungwon? What does he wants, what are his intentions? Does he wants to help them? What does they mean to him? Of course he could be like Kim Shin from tvN’s Goblin; however for all we know he could also be: a) Cham dokkaebi (a mischievous dokkaebi) B) gae dokkaebi (an evil dokkaebi). He may seem harmless in the teasers, but we all know this shit can be unpredictable.
To me, he seems to be looking for something that involve the six of them. Maybe one of the boys is the key to a issue he wants to resolve (like in the drama, Kim Shin needed a bride to pull out the sword of his chest so he could finally die); all of them seems to play an important role in his situation. In Goblin, Samshin (goddess of childbirth) says that goblins can be found anywhere, but nowhere; that could explain about the different scenarios he’s with all of them; he’s timeless. In the video released (the pic above is from it), you see the 6 boys in front of Hyungwon, who is looking at the ground as if he is ashamed of something, passing him by as if he isn’t even there. They deviate from him though, suggesting they know he’s there. This video is the only released piece of info about Dramarama that actually puts them together in the same environment, looking like they’re actually from that place they’re at; the pictures separated by duos have contexts completely different one from another.
He could be a grim reaper, of course. If you look, it fits. What I say that support myy theory is: a) grim reapers are known, in Korean culture, to wear all black and with a hat in their heads (the very first stories about them dates from the dynasties eras, so they were pictured using the Joseon era traditional hat; of course HW could appear with a hat in the MV or in other scenes though); b) it’s known by everyone in the fandom, as I said in the beginning, that they’re huge Goblin fans, and there’s this joke about Hyungwon being the Grim Reaper because he’s tall (as fuck) and wears black most of the time (he was wearing a goddamn black hat in Monsta X Ray 2 at the beach). I think it’d be a bit obvious that this is his role in this era, but it could be the right theory, who knows. As I also said up there, grim reapers are only invisible to human eyes when wearing a black hat (at least in the Goblin drama, which is what we’re discussing), and the boys do not seem to notice Hyungwon’s presence and Hyungwon is not wearing a hat. I don’t remember if goblins could become invisible to humans in tvN’s Goblin (it has been some time since it ended and my memory is shit, lemme live), but as he has a lot of powers, this could be one of them. Or it’s just part of the concept aesthetic.
To conclude it, here’s a scene of Goblin where Kim Shin (Gong Yoo) visits the graves of his dead friends, people who died while he had to continue to live. His expression is similar to Hyungwon’s in the picture above. In the Protocol Terminal video teaser, Hyungwon is seem using modern clothes (wtf is that jacket but HW would look better than me even if he was wearing a potato sack). I don’t think the clothes would fit a reaper, but that could also be a misleading scene. Koreans are the masters of misleading editing, if you watch kdramas and see the previews for the upcoming episodes you know what I’m talking about. It’d be an interesting concept to follow because they could explore different storylines inside one plot. Anyways, can’t wait for this comeback that is feeding my conspiracy theorist and art hoe ass so damn much. I miss Goblin btw

not trying to be *That* person, but when do u think we're gonna get the next hyyh or wings album/era from bts (not trying to say what we got now sucks, since it is a smaller more aesthetically driven album), im just wondering if we'll ever get another personal, long lasting, intense album like we did with those two. i miss living through an era like that, i cant live off of looking through old photos and videos forever ) : hyyh specifically is still so special to bts and so many armies
be THAT person bc it’s true af. i don’t feel like there’s gonna be a next hyyh/wings album honestly. i feel like wings was the most personal album they’ve released so far and hyyh era the most beautiful. i mean, the plot, the meaning of it... hyyh is my personal favourite lol but bts always searches for new sounds and concepts and that’s actually great but for me hyyh/wings like you said was THE era and with this last album they didn’t reach to me like they did with the others?
As much as all the albums and songs are comecial as hell, this last one is the most comercial one lmao -like, that’s the essence of kpop adkjhdvkahvuyasv-. Don’t hate me for this but i didn’t like this album at all haha idk the main track wasn’t as good as the others (for me) idk why but it just wasnt. maybe it’s bc the drop got me like eeeeeeeeh i expected something harder or faster???-the drop its actually what makes the song interesting but i didnt like it- ?? maybe i was so used to that dramatism and deepness on their mvs/songs/albums????????????? idk i was just upset lol - i didn’t even like the whistle thing like N O lmao. i liked the bridge though but just bc of the instrumental when v sings that goes like tun tun, tun tun. but yeah i mean it’s a fun song and a fun album overall and that’s what kpop is about but i didn’t like it as much as others dont ask me why ---- OKAY an aside before keeping on with this > also i’ve seen a whole lot of culture appropriation on this albm/stages specially with mic drop -and kinda with go go- like MORE than usual lol.
anyways the thing is i agree with you in all aspects but it must be said that sometimes is good to change its good that bts did it to a more poppy and fun album, like it was total new aesthetic- plus they surely did have a great time collabing with the chainsmokers (who i hate lloooooooool so u now know which is my least fav song on the album).

what a coincidence, i found a vid about eunwoo talking ytd! it was one of their ddoca vids and he was filmed in the car going to drama shooting and he kept talking to the camera. i barely understood anything but it was still so nice! my bias wrecker is moonbin and that's actually a quite new realization. i saw a fancam in december of his 24 hours cover and i fell into the pithole of glorious fancams. he has this whole aura when he's on stage like he was born to perform... (1/4)
:3
and that combined with how sweet he is offstage just won me over. about rocky, i remember that seeing those funny video compilations he was always there wilding so i was actually surprised when i first saw him being all quiet in other situations. but i think it’s just natural that you can also be really yourself around people you are closer with. OMG your aus are all so good, i highkey wanna read fics like these now!! i feel like i can’t come up with more suiting concepts but i will try (2/4)
myungjun as the type of fake dating au when they do it for a prank like ‘tell me one good reason why we should’ 'imagine their faces!’, jinjin as enemies to lovers in a uni dorm ra setting, eunwoo as runaway modern era prince au, moonbin as spontaneous roadtrip au with friends to lovers, rocky as dance instructor or high school prom au, sanha as soulmate au in which you know the first sentence your soulmate tells you and he is stuck with 'hello’ (¾)
oh and i saw your astro as aesthetics post, it was so fitting for them, it’s really wellmade. (i seriously need to stop myself from liking your posts in order to not reveal myself accidently hehe) if you could make an official mv for a non-title astro song, which would it be and what kind of concept would it have? // asa
omg pls link me when you have the chance!!! idk if you saw that report on the bias/bias wrecker comparison in astro that @/moonhyuks did but apparently most people who bias eunwoo has moonbin as a bias wrecker so its funny you say that!!! omg i recently saw his 24 hour cover and WOWZAH!!! he is an incredible dancer and singer!! he truly was born to be on stage!!!
i really love rocky nowadays!!! he is such a sweetie!!!
I really highkey wanna read my aus too lmao but omg ur aus are highkey amazing and the moonbin and sanha au is something i needed to read like yesterday!!! god i feel like the fandom needs way more fanfic, there just isnt enough or maybe im not looking hard enough ://
oof i love aesthetics and i hadnt seen anything like that for astro, thank you for enjoying that post!!! what kind of aesthetics would you choose for the boys?
tbh i havent heard all thier b-sides yet but i would like to see an mv for roleplay maybe!! ok idk if you saw the mv for one directions night changes but i kind of want like that kind of concept!!! what song and concept would you choose?
