Sugar rush ride (JP ver) 가자~~!

Sugar Rush Ride Japanese version mv theories!

Starting at the beginning, Yeonjun is driving alone at night. Rather than trying to fit this into a set timeline, I think the idea is deja vu throughout the story, or just a synopsis of what's going on in general. Being a new version of Sugar Rush Ride, it could very well be a different perspective on that same story, a more detailed picture of the events. There are references to other mvs all throughout, starting with the car (Lovesong, Loser=Lover, GBGB Jp. Version), the fish (Lovesong, GBGB Jp. Version), the money (Loser=Lover, GBGB Jp. Version) and the butterfly (Sugar Rush Ride). These things show the fluid nature of the story and timeline. The fish in particular is a sign that at this point Yeonjun is conflicted, caught between beauty and danger. The butterfly distracts Yeonjun until he spins out of control, crashing the car again.

Beomgyu wakes up on the ground next to a bike, but unscathed. Another mv reference (Drama, Loser=Lover, GBGB Jp. Version), which shows that Beomgyu is yet again alone and neglected. He tries to get back on the bike again, but fails. Then he gets angry and throws the bike. This is a departure from the established pattern, meaning he knows it's a problem, that he can't keep giving everything for the others and that they can't necessarily be trusted. It's also exactly how he shows his anger in Loser=Lover, though, meaning he's hit rock bottom, back at the same place he started in. Nothing has really changed.

Taehyun is sitting in the bathtub looking depressed. Water again symbolizing contrast and uncertainty, Taehyun is feeling conflicted about everything that's happened. His scenes are mixed with Beomgyu's, and when Beomgyu throws the bike, it goes through what looks like a bathroom mirror, which seems to connect with Taehyun. Taehyun knows that Beomgyu needs help, and so while Yeonjun and Beomgyu are being led into temptation by the purple butterflies, Taehyun willingly sinks into the water to join them.

Shockwaves ripple through Taehyun's chest. Maybe it's his magic, or maybe it's just intuition, but he knows. Beomgyu is in danger. He remembers the last time he saw the older, riding off on his bike. Alone. They'd all been a little preoccupied at the time, trying desperately to escape, so he hadn't really thought about it. Beomgyu never was great at balancing. That isn't Taehyun's main concern, though. He's sure Beomgyu can bounce back from a physical injury. Still: Alone. Could anyone escape the clutches of imagination without help? Without a doubt, Taehyun knows where Beomgyu is headed. Without a doubt, that's where he's going to follow. Taking a deep breath, Taehyun slides under the water. It's time to go back to the Magic Island.

The water also transitions to Kai, who is standing in the rain. He even cups the water in his hands, further proof that he's behind the illusions, and has some inside knowledge. It could be that the transition means that Taehyun told Huening Kai to bring them all in. Maybe Huening knows something, and now Taehyun knows that he knows, and now they're trying to save them all, because Taehyun isn't going to let Beomgyu get lost on Magic Island alone.

Meanwhile, Soobin is sitting in some sort of corridor looking incredibly miserable when he, too, sees the butterfly that leads him away.

Even in the water, Taehyun's eyes are open and clear. He knows what he's doing. He isn't being tempted, he's trying to save everyone else. There's a brief second where Beomgyu is going towards a cage. While Taehyun is trying to save him, Beomgyu is effectively getting himself caught in a trap. The trap in question is probably using an old, dangerous habit to try to change a new problem, as well as practically getting trapped on Magic Island. 

Yeonjun is the last of the boys to wake up when they make it to the island; the others find him and Soobin helps him up. There's a time of peace as they explore the island. We see proof that the trees and the ground are alive and moving. The island itself is alive. We can assume, then, that, like a living person, the island has both good and evil within it. Kai finds a berry on the ground and smashes it against a tree, leaving a purple smudge with a butterfly outline, building up the evidence for Kai being the culprit.

Though on the island, Soobin's eyes are clear, meaning he isn't being tempted; he is actually present in reality. It might be because he's with Taehyun. He picks up a white feather (another thing we've seen before in Lovesong Jp. Version and GBGB Jp. Version), which can symbolize peace, hope, innocence, and protection. Basically, when they are united together, temptation can't hurt them, and the island is a safe place. This is why we see scenes of the five of them playing around happily. 

Still, there's something watching them, or watching Taehyun, specifically. Maybe it's the cat, or maybe it's the dragon, but either way it probably notices Taehyun because he's the one trying to fix it all. And so Taehyun decides it's time to escape now that they're all together. A car appears, probably from Taehyun's conjuring abilities, and everyone hops in. The feather is stepped on in the process, meaning they're leaning into dangerous territory again. Beomgyu sticks his hand out the window and causes ripples in the barrier between dream and reality. They're currently aware, running away back to the real world together.

It's fun, until the hairs on the back of Taehyun's neck stand up. They aren't alone. Company on this island isn't usually a good thing, but he isn't about to fall for any tricks this far in. Focusing his mental energy, he pictures a car in his mind's eye until the vehicle is really there. The boys hop in with enthusiastic shouts of, "Cool!" And, "Nice job, Taehyun!" Yeonjun hits the gas and Taehyun tries hard not to think about all of the cars the oldest has crashed. It's not like the rest of them even know how to drive. The barriers ripple around them as the drive far away. Leaving the illusions behind. In the past, they were running away from the world. Now they were running to it. Back to life and joy, back to reality.

That's when Kai lets the fish go, releasing his two-faced nature and dangerous motives. This seems to also relinquish whatever power he had to control the temptation before, which might be why a butterfly comes in and everyone is hit by tinnitus. Then they fall asleep, lost in the dream world again. All except Yeonjun.

Feathers fill the road ahead, because their hope can't be discarded that easily, and their bond is still protecting them. Yeonjun spikes the brakes, which wakes everyone else up. They're now back in the real world. 

At the very end, Taehyun notices a cut on Yeonjun's hand, probably from the car crash at the beginning, and gives him a band-aid. This parallels when Beomgyu did the same thing back in Run Away. Now Taehyun probably borrows Beomgyu's healing powers, because he doesn't want Beomgyu to go back to the same place he was before, trying to help everyone at his own expense.

The story ends on a hopeful note, the five boys together and safe.

Huening Kai locks eyes with Beomgyu, smiling slightly. The older looks tired, but then they all do. He returns the smile. Yeonjun has his arm over Taehyun's shoulder, and Soobin stands at the end of the line watching over them all. They gazed into the distance. "We made it?" Beomgyu says it like a question, even though he knows it's true.

"We made it," Yeonjun nods. He taps Taehyun on the shoulder, a sign that he knows who's responsible for their safety.

[binniesoob]

hello! this is the same person that said beomgyu might have been trying to protect taehyun instead of suffocating (this ask has mentions of suicide so if it makes u uncomfy ignore this!

snd i forgot to add that ppl r saying in the gbgb jp mv (and maybe jp ssr mv as well? im not sure abt that one) taehyun was trying to khs but beomgyu tried saving him but he fell off the bike and idk what happened next cus i didnt see anything abt what happened after! anyways thats all i have to say again!

hi again!! okay wait a sec, imma rewatch the mvs to try see them in this light 🧐

* a few minutes later *

in gbgb tbh i don't see it 🤔 txt were running away from the police that found them after the robbery. moments after taehyun and beomgyu fight in their hideout and we see a sus soobin looking guilty: soobin got rid of some of the money in the toilet, and taehyun thinks beomgyu did it instead (remember the whole "who's a liar" in cysm? soobin is a liar.) Later the police finds their hideout, and i think they separated to try make it more difficult for it to get them. We see taehyun trying to call moa, and yes beomgyu tries to escape by bike and falls, but i honestly don't see the hints that could imply that taehyun tried to take his life 🤔

now! for sugar rush ride i could see that! taehyun is in the bathtub looking depressed and we see the shadow of beomgyu on the other side of the window before he crushes it... it could be interpreted in this light as well i think 👍 gyu's (trying to) saving tae 🥺 after all, leaving the magical aspect of lore aside, txt do have pretty dark ways of escaping reality and dealing with their feelings...

considering the magic aspect, water has been a mean of transport to magic island for txt (see run away mv) and taehyun seems to use it to move to neverland to escape his painfull reality.

thank you for the ask <3 this was interesting to explore 👀

Tokyo Trip Report (Part 4)

This is the last of the Japan report! Lots of photos this time. Thank you for sticking with me.

Feel free to blacklist the tag “japan 2016″ if you don’t want to see these posts! The images may look squished if you read this outside dashboard due to my blog theme. Everything is under the cut.

Day 10: Tokyo Comic City

The main reason why we picked mid June to go to Japan, other than that Jen has summer school and to avoid the crowdy July-August break, was because I wanted to meet some JP mutuals tabling at the con >///<  (thank you Jen for agreeing to this)

I especially wanted to meet Rui-san, whose art I looked up to a lot (and buy her books while I’m at it), but she had work last minute and couldn’t come... Maybe next time ;__;

The event is 11pm~3pm. We planned to go at 12 to avoid the crowd, but we woke up late and got there at 1pm😂😂  It was located at Tokyo Big Sight in Odaiba, and this place is like an airport!! It’s huge and even has conveyor belts, and people were carrying luggages around (to store the merch they bought??)

(No photographing allowed inside)

1/3 of the tables already packed up and left... Apparently in Japanese events, people list out exactly what they’re going to buy and go straight for it the moment the doors open. We didn’t plan to buy anything, but it looked like going in late wasn’t a good idea. Something to keep in mind in the future.

I saw a Miyoshi/Maki mini print and thought “hmm I’ll come back after we check everything out” and then it was sold out ;;;;;;

Free postcards at the door promoting upcoming only-events.

From what I understand, onlys are smaller, fandom-specific events inside a general bigger event? There are games and stuff but we didn’t understand it XD I noticed that tables of the same fandoms were grouped together, sorted by ships. Convenient for the shoppers, but I wonder what happens to multi-fandom artists? And there’s the whole concept of “circles”... It’s certainly very different from what I heard about Western cons, which I’ve not been to.

Also!! Most artists give out free prints! ...At least that’s what I 98% sure they are, but I didn’t have the guts to take them, especially when I’m not buying anything💦💦  I should’ve done some research first.

We met up with Ran-san (again) and Nori-san, who gave me some oisuga poster and postcards. It was a prize for a game on twitter and the poster was supposed to be first-come-first-served, but she saved one for me ahhhh;;;;; As promised I sticked it to my face.

And the poster is now on my wall ////

I suddenly forgot all my Japanese so there was a very long awkward pause before I said I would like to buy a charm from her www (After we got home I was able to talk to her on twitter fluently again what the heck)

Ran-san then took us to meet Kurot. She kept laughing at Kurot for being “crazy” from the lack of sleep. Kurot called me “Kiyo-san” at first, then questioned herself why she’s speaking Japanese when we can speak English😂😂  Please have a good rest after this!!!

I tweeted a photo of my shirt for mutuals not tabling to find me so I can give them Canadian omiyage (maple sugar lmao) and Saki actually managed to find me!! She gave me a iwaoi bag she made (bottom left in the above photo) with lots of candies inside. Thank you ////

Then we met up with Uma and walked around the con. The con was ending and we were about to leave when I saw copic markers on sale on the side. 10 markers for 1000 yen!!!! I never tried it before so I only bought 10, but I now regret not getting more.

I forgot to go back to say goodbye to Ran-san and Nori-san before leaving...

Uma, Jen and I decided to go to Ikebukuro for some afternoon snack. Yamate Line had an accident (someone fell off the platform??) so we had to take another line. Then it became clear how the accident probably happened. THIS WAS THE MOST CROWDED TRAIN WE EXPERIENCED ON THIS TRIP. I could barely take this photo. I was leaning on someone’s (sweaty) back with my feet half off the ground, and when the train arrived at a station, it becomes like a strong river where you literally get pushed around and have no control of where to go.

We finally found a place to sit down and eat.

We exchanged our sketchbooks and had a doodling session until we got politely kicked out an hour later XD

We window-shopped for a bit at Sunshine City before parting ways. Our host family offered us to make BBQ on the rooftop, but it was too late so we just got ourselves some konbini dinner.

Family Mart’s fried chicken is so good!! I finished it before we even got home.

Thank you so much for an amazing day!!! I hope we can meet again.

Day 11: Yokohama

Today is the last day of our trip and we decided to spend it in Yokohama.

Animate Yokohama was really close by so we dropped by quickly for last minute weeb shopping. Jen went to look for CCS and Digimon merch while I went to play the Joker Game Q&A (each week you can get prizes - a print I think - for answering a question related to the week’s episode).

Q: What was the pill left on the floor in Maki’s room? A: Aspirin.

But they ran out of the prize so I only got a stamp...

Heading to Hakkeijima Sea Paradise! This is where we will spend most of the day.

Kalbi onigiri. Yum. In Taiwan I prefer 7-11 much over Family Mart, but here Family Mart is my best friend.

The station is really cute.

We’re here!

It’s a giant amusement park on an artificial island. The right half is the “ground” rides, but we’re only interested in the “sea” side today. 

There’s not a lot of people.

Ahhhh they look like spiders and why are they so big!!! Jen: Are they edible

OMG so I happen to witness this guy eat... It pressed the fish in between the glass and itself, and wiggled until the fish got to its mouth... then swallowed it whole.

Our tickets also included fish-your-own-fish. 

I’m so sorry ;;;;

Jen is vegetarian so I got 2 for myself. It was really good and I wished I got more...

More animals on the other side of the park!

Hydrangeas near the entrance/exit.

We wanted to end the day with Yokohama’s famous night view at Landmark Tower, so we rushed back (it takes about an hour).

The Red Brick Warehouse!

We didn’t remember we wanted to go to the Cup Noodles Museum until we walked passed it lmao (it was closed already)

We finally got to Landmark Tower. Had a quick dinner at a Oyako don place.

We didn’t know we were making a big mistake. THEY STOP LETTING PEOPLE ONTO THE OBSERVATION DECK AT 8:30. We finished our dinner and got there at exactly 8:30. The directions weren’t really clear so we walked back and forth for a while, before realizing that the man we saw putting up a sign at a door was the deck staff closing the door. If I realized it a minute earlier I would’ve begged him to let us in ;____;

It would be frustrating to come all the way here and not be able to see the view, so we headed back to the port beside the warehouse and ended our Yokohama adventure there.

Someone on the train was reading Jump!!

We returned home to see this on the bed ahhhh... Inside the bag was 2 big boxes of shrimp cookies that homestay dad bought on his business trip. This host family was much less experienced (we are their first), but they were so sweet😭😭😭

Day 12: Departure

I leave Japan today and go to Taiwan next. Jen was staying for another day because she booked her tickets wrong hahahaha

Homestay mom helped us book the direct bus to Haneda Airport; we didn’t want to go through the pain of pulling luggages through the subway system again.

We got off at Terminal 1... BUT JOKE’S ON ME IT’S ACTUALLY SUPPOSED TO BE TERMINAL I FOR “INTERNATIONAL” WHO THE HELL THOUGHT THIS WAS A GOOD IDEA!! So we had to quickly take the airport shuttle to the correct terminal to check in.

The airport was decorated in Edo? style.

I decided to have Mos Burger for my last meal in Japan. I grew up eating their rice burger in Taiwan so I wanted to try the real one in Japan. They only had regular burgers here though!!

Our last doodle together.

It was hard to say goodbye to Jen. We’ve been together since elementary school and who knows when we will see each other in person again...😢 We dragged on until last minute and I almost missed my plane lmao

Bye bye Japan! Thank you for a wonderful time and I hope I can come again soon!!

Is Laputa in there

The flight was only about 3 hours so by the time I woke up from a nap we were already landing. But then...

WhaT

IS

HAPPENING

I WAS LEGIT TERRIFIED OMG I hate flying and I would think that if the plane needs to make FIVE GODDAMN CIRCLES above the airport, something might’ve happened down there. 

After what felt like forever, we finally started descending. Everything looked fine?  

Then it became obvious why we couldn’t land. It was like a typhoon down there and the plane was shaking so much while landing. There were no actual typhoon though. Just your regular crazy Taiwanese summer afternoon-storm.

Yep I’m definitely back in Taiwan

The moment I stepped out of the plane I could feel the intense hot humid air, like usual... The storm was crazy big and part of the subway was experiencing outage, so I had a rough time getting home. Good to be back though.

Souvenir for my grandma! She loves matcha stuff. These are matcha-white chocolate cookies, bought at Haneda airport.

My loot from Japan. I managed to control myself hahahaha

Corn flavoured stuff is the best!!!!!!!

And this concludes my Japan trip report!! It is almost 8 months since the trip I can’t believe I took so long to organize this😂😂  I might write a little bit here and there about the Taiwan trip later. Thank you for sticking around and I hope you enjoyed reading!!

> Sugar rush ride (JP ver)

let's go~~!

[monocotyledons]

genuinely wondering why bighit seems to be translating songs into japanese a LOT less now (i.e. bts vs txt)

i was looking at the tracklist for sweet and sugar rush ride is the only tnc:t song getting a jp translation and hydrangea love is the only new jp song (i don't think i should count the intro & outro as "full songs" tbh). most of the tracklist consists of previously released jp versions of songs (0x1 lovesong, gbgb, moa diary) or previously released original jp songs (ito, hitori no yoru, ring). i'm looking at the tracklist for still dreaming and it's a similar story where it's mostly jp title tracks + original songs, but almost no b-sides.

and i'm pretty used to, say, bts japanese albums where they won't translate the whole kr album, but they will at least translate a good number of b-sides. youth had jp versions of butterfly, baepsae, boyz with fun. face yourself had best of me, not today, go go. mots: the journey had make it right, dionysus, airplane pt. 2.

so i'm coming from that and i'm genuinely surprised that we don't get, say, japanese versions of tinnitus or opening sequence or frost or anti-romantic. (hell, loser lover didn't get a jp translation and it's also a title track!) the only txt b-sides i've seen with jp translations are angel or devil, drama, and moa diary. on one hand that means less work in the recording studio for the boys and they already have enough on their plate, so i don't mind less work for them. and maybe j-moas are more receptive to listening to the original korean versions than j-armys. who knows!

but on the other hand it makes me feel like all the marketing stuff for sweet is a lot of fluff bc at the end of the day you're paying a full album for... 1 new song, 1 new translation, and 1 new intro/outro. sure, there's a brand new concept and i do think that the sweet concept photos (esp. the surrender ones!) are gorgeous, but in terms of the musical content... eh.
