Let’s talk about Pygmalion. ONEUS recently dropped their new logo motion for their 9th mini album Pygmalion. So, who or what is Pygmalion? It can refer to one of two things. 
First is the myth of Pygmalion and Galatea. Pygmalion was a talented sculptor in Ancient Greece, most known for his ivory statue's life like appearances. Because of his work as a sculptor, putting beauty into ivory, he did not have time to admire actual women and their beauty. He saw flaws in the way women were portraying themselves and therefore decided to only concentrate on his ivory statues. One day, he carved a statue of woman in what he believed to be beauty. he carved this woman from ivory, sculpting her carefully so she could be unparallel to any other woman he had ever seen. He carved her in his image of beauty, and when Pygmalion was done, he stepped back and admired her. In his eyes, his ivory statue was the most beautiful woman, and he falls in love with his own creation. He showers this statue in gifts, kisses her with such care, decorating her with the cloths and ornaments. He spent countless days and nights, a sense of joy overcoming him. He was so in love with his ivory woman, whom he named Galatea, and wished for her to be his wife. Eventually, Aphrodite’s festival comes around, and Pygmalion makes an offering to the goddess. He prays to her, venerating so deeply, that she would make Galatea into a real woman. Aphrodite, touched by Pygmalion’s deep veneration, decided to see this statue. When she saw Galatea, she was amazed by how life like the statue was and how close to beauty the statue was to her. So, she granted Pygmalion’s wish, answered his prayers and made Galatea into a real woman. That night, when Pygmalion returned to his workshop, he kissed Galatea and was shocked to feel how warm her lips were, and how soft she was to touch. Pygmalion was overjoyed to learn that Aphrodite answered his prayers. Years later, Pygmalion and Galatea had a son named Paphos together. Truly, a story about the love an artist has for their own creation.
The second is something called the Pygmalion effect. The Pygmalion effect refers to situations where someone's high expectations improve our behavior and therefore our performance in a given area. Presented by psychologists Robert Rosenthal and Lenore Jacobson, high expectations lead to better performance and low expectations lead to worse, both effects leading to self-fulfilling prophecy, a prediction that comes true in part of a set expectation or belief. The opposite of the Pygmalion effect is the Galatea effect, which one’s belief in themselves increases their performance.
Now, looking at the new logo, we can see a white background, most likely referring to the ivory that Galatea was made from or the high expectations from someone else. Then a drop happens, then suddenly the white is stained and overcome with black, covering on an otherwise ethereal white. It is no longer unblemished, no longer beautiful in the eyes of the beholder. The expectations someone placed on were wrong, and we failed them in their eyes. We may not think we failed, but to them we did. The logo shatters, leaving nothing but shards left to be picked up or forgotten.
Now knowing what Pygmalion means, the myth and the effect, what could this mean? In terms of the monarchs, could it refer to them, once bright rulers now forgotten by the ones they loved? Could it be that the monarchs are the “Galatea” of this story, someone, Helios perhaps or someone new, made them who they are and have high expectations for them? Are the monarchs no longer loved or have failed expectations? Who knows? Only time will tell.
But that’s just a theory. A ONEUS theory! Thank you for reading. 
(Please add on if you wish!)

I just had a terrifying thought... What if Xikers dropped out of RTK because Ateez is going to be in Kingdom again? Like... if they are making RTK they are making Kingdom right? Has their been any news about it? And if Oneus is back for RTK then Ateez could in theory be invited back for Kingdom.... But they wouldn't want them competing against each other if Xikers won. ..... God I hope I'm not right. They don't need that trauma and they are way beyond that.

No Diggity Analysis
This is more my observations and beginnings of analysis, I’ll need to peer review, however, here are my thoughts of imagery and meanings in Oneus’ No Diggity.
Each Oneus member would represent a tarot card (teasers)
Ravn - The Hanged Man
His imagery literally had his leg tied like the hanged man. Also has bear traps in his soul shots, which would be connected to the hanged man, as the hanged man traps himself. The Hanged Man tarot card is about sacrifice. However, this card goes well with the negative cards, such as The Tower and The Devil, it’s not really a card I would like to get when doing a tarot reading.
Seoho - The Tower
This card suggests chaos, and in many designs is on fire. Seoho’s solo shots feature a tall structure on fire, which is part of the basis of assigning him this card. The other part is his general vibes like he is going to bring chaos (he’s also the only one to break something in the mv). It’s another card I would not like to get during a tarot reading.
Leedo - Strength
During his teaser, he roars, like a lion and moves like a lion. Which is the imagery used for strength in tarot typically, which is why I think he would represent strength. This is a nice card to receive during a reading.
Keonhee - The Devil
Before the MV, I would have thought that it was Dongju who was the devil, however, my mind has been changed. Keonhee has skulls in his solo shots and is the only one with dancers (and I think he has some control over them). This card is almost never good to get during a reading.
Hwanwoong - The Emperor
This card is about authority, Hwanwoong has the whole big brother thing going on, a security camera and guards, all three have connotations of authority. This card is good to get in a reading. Lowkey though, I struggled with figuring out what tarot card he represents.
Xion - Temperance
Lowkey, originally thought he was the Devil, however, his mask seems more representative of what an angel is actually supposed to look like according to Ezekiel 1, “Now as I beheld the living creatures, behold one wheel upon the earth by the living creatures, with his four faces. The appearance of the four wheels and their work was like unto the colour of a beryl: and they four has one likeness: and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel in the middle of a wheel.” and “As for their rings, they were so high that they were dreadful; and their rings were full of eyes round about them four.” I will provide images. Temperance is about balance, and calm. Throughout the MV, Dongju has the least “joker” energy, he’s just vibing, living his best life. A good card.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Pairs and Two Sides
In TBONTB, there were 3 pairs, representing the past, present and future. Ravn and Hwanwoong as the past, Dongju and Keonhee as the present and Leedo and Seoho as the future.
Personally, I think, within these pairs, there’s a “good” or angelic side, and a “bad” or devilish side.
As in my tarot card analysis, I pointed out, some cards are better than others, which Hwanwoong, Dongju and Leedo represent. These three also have the white suits and coloured clouds shots. What the clouds and the colours represent, I’m not sure, but this is my basis for separating Oneus into a devil and angel side. 
Also within each pair, the tarot cards, in a way can be considered opposites of each other. 
Ravn and Hwanwoong
The Hanged Man has given up on authority, and in a reading, if paired with the Emperor suggests that there is a dominant man in your life where conflicts can be resolved with passivity. (if paired with The Empress, then there’s a dominant woman)
Hwanwoong is the one, I believe who ties up Ravn’s leg, due to Hwanwoong pulling on his own wires, and the next shot shows Ravn dragged by his leg. Ravn then ends up by the eye tv, which is Hwanwoong’s imagery. This could suggest a switch in sides, maybe idk.
Dongju and Keonhee
These two I think are the driving force. As Temperance is an angel, and obviously The Devil, is the devil, these two would have the most conflict. However, I’ll need to spend more time analysing their scenes. Keonhee’s end scene has the same or similar shade of blue as Xion’s scene earlier (I will also be providing pictures), however, Xion is surrounded by it and almost blends in, he looks more ethereal, while Keonhee stands out and is walking away from it. What this means, I don’t know. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Leedo and Seoho
An important thing about The Tower is that it’s damaged, either it’s on fire or crumbling, it symbolises sudden change, while in reverse symbolises a fear of change, while strength symbolises courage, compassion and inner strength. Courage can be seen when Leedo is shot at and he doesn’t flinch. Seoho doesn’t seem to be afraid, so I believe that he is a force that will bring change.
I may make another post going more in-depth with the tarot cards.
Angels
I will also need to make another post about the devils because I need to do more analysis and research. 
Hwanwoong
As stated previously, angels have a lot of eyes. Hwanwoong’s most striking imagery is the eyes on the TV. This is another way I think he’s connected to angels.
Dongju
Due to his ethereal shot in the white suit, this made me realise he wasn’t the devil. His mask has a resemblance to the appearance of angels, so this is what connects him to angels.
Leedo
The fire behind him looks like wings and angels are also connected to fire.
None of that was super detailed, but like, I was focusing on tarot.
I should also research more biblical imagery because that’s definitely a key feature.

OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD LEMME BREATHE KIM YOUNGJO.
Ok, theory time, based on the teaser photos, Ravn seems to symbolize the dark side while Woong represents the light? The photos are so contrasting in mood. Maybe Ravn = dark side after they died, which matches the R.I.P. theory (RAVN Is Pretty, RAVN Is Perfect, R I P)
Meanwhile, Woong = still living, before they died? I mean his unicorn cake hair-ahem
Or maybe, it means that only some of them sacrifice themselves to protect the child, while the other survived to continue protecting the child. Ravn is one of the monarchs who died, while Hwanwoong is one of them that is still alive.
I don’t know, I need more braincells for this, what do my fellow To Moons think?

Let’s talk about the word Malus. The word Malus has three definitions.
Firstly, Malus refers to a genus of apple shrubs and trees, and those fruit also contain seeds full of cyanide. Apples are most famously depicted as the forbidden fruit in the Bible story Adam and Eve, where Eve disobeys God by eating the apple from the Tree of Knowledge, tempted to her by the serpent. A serpent that was residing in the Garden of Eden.
Secondly, Malus is a Latin word that means bad, morally or physically evil. It’s a word that is associated with the Ancient Greek word mélas, which can be translated to “dark or black”, and many figures are named as such in Ancient Greek stories, such as a man who wanted to go on an expedition against the city of Corinth. Corinth… where Helios was being worshipped.
Thirdly, Malus is the definition to a financial penalty incurred by a banker, trader, or investor when a deal results in a loss. The loss is usually due to a discovery of a defect in a product that results in poor performance. Something that wasn’t supposed to be there made it fail.
Now knowing what Malus means:
Tumblr media
Did the monarchs make a deal that went bad?

Colours in Intro: Devil is in the Detail
No Diggity takes place in between worlds, between the underworld (Tartarus or Hell) and Earth and takes place after TBONTB. Only thing is, the ending positions of TBONTB and the starting positions of No Diggity are not the same.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It’s only Hwanwoong and Leedo who are in the same place (it took me way too long to pick up on this). This suggests something has happened in between these two songs, which is where Devil is in the Detail comes in.
As I don’t have the knowledge to analyse choreography, let me direct you to this wonderful youtube video. And I’ll talk about what I am comfortable with: lighting, colour and cameras
The performance video starts off with red lighting, signifying that they’re in hell. Seoho then turns the lighting into an intense red.
Tumblr media
This can signify either than Seoho is closest to hell, or the reason that they’re here in the first place. As my Oneus theory relies heavily on the tarot, it’s important to note that Seoho is The Tower, which symbolises chaos, ambitions and goals made on false premises and a fear of change (as well as sudden change, depends on if it’s upright or reversed). Because they’ve spent a long time in the nightmare world, Seoho could be scared to leave, or he has a sense of power in the Underworld that he may not have on Earth. (I will have a more in depth post on each member and the tarot, just give me time)
Next Hwanwoong pushes the camera towards Ravn and Leedo, who have green lighting. Green typically represents life and nature, so this would Ravn chosing life with the help of Leedo. (Leedo’s card is strength) 
Tumblr media
Ravn’s card is the Hanged Man, and one important aspect to note here, is that the card represents indecisiveness. (again will have a full post on the tarot) and therefore he’s the most in between sides and easily influenced to each side, depending on who’s with him. Leedo doesn’t control Ravn (evidenced by the fact that we can’t see him) instead he supports him from behind. Ravn turns the light green. 
Tumblr media
Leedo also turns the light green, however this time it has more of a blue tinge, meaning that they are closer to life and Earth, as Oneus use blue to represent Life.
Tumblr media
He then passes the camera back to Seoho, Keonhee, Hwanwoong and Xion. The lights are an orange colour, which in this case I think suggests caution or indesiveness. As the other members are trying to make their way through hell. (I will have a short paragraph on Xion).
Tumblr media
Here the choreo gets really important so I suggest watching the video. However, to continue on with the post, this is where Keonhee and Seoho are close to hell, and Seoho has p o w e r. (The video explains it really well)
One thing I would like the note to add on to the video, when Seoho pulls Keonhee down, Xion and Hwanwoong also pull each other towards each other, however they remain on the same level, suggesting that they haven’t changed. 
Another thing, I think the reason Xion doesn’t really get any centre moments or screen time is because there was never a debate on what side he was going to chose. He was always on the side of life, he’s here to support the other members and help guide them.
Tumblr media
Keonhee turns the lights red for a short period of time, showing his conflict as he has power in the Underworld. This also provides evidence that Keonhee can move between worlds at will. 
With Seoho the orange lights come back.
Tumblr media
Seoho and Keonhee have switched places, and therefore Seoho is currently the one with power.
Seoho is even the one to turn the lights blue. As for who turns the intense blue lights on, I can only assume it is a group effort as Seoho was the only one holding them back, however, while the lights are blue, Seoho seemingly has control over the other members. 
Tumblr media
The lights stay blue until Seoho’s backflip where he falls back into hell. Keonhee then turns the lights red, effectively dragging them back to hell. (Keonhee is the Devil card btw)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This takes us to the events in No Diggity.
