the fact that jimin has a contemporary dance background just goes to show that hes in his element like this is where he truly shines as a performer (I'm not belittling the rest of my talented babies I'm just tryna say it how it is 🥺💜)
Do you also remember from the Black Swan film, when she was practicing in the studio, and her reflection wouldn’t move at the same time as her? I believe that was referenced in Jin’s scene when he was with the mirrors. But when he turned, his reflection didn’t.
HAakksksl I busted out laughing when Reafe started talking about the concept photos and if they were going to have wings bc literally a few seconds later jimin spreads his wings 🤣🤣🤣 I knew y’all were going to be shook 🙊
Searched up the “black swan theory” and this came up: “The black swan theory or theory of black swan events is a metaphor that describes an event that comes as a *surprise*, has a major effect, and is often inappropriately rationalized after the fact with the benefit of hindsight.” BigHit got us well with that drop! We all had a heart Attack for sure when that notification buzzed on our phones!😭💜
I was never a fan of BTS until I heard this song on James corden show and now I’m hooked. And also my favorites are RM & Jimin. But no offense to the rest they are all talented.
BigHit/ BTS: Surprise Army lol .This MV is pure “ART”!! 2:32 Jin: That’s right, “I’m World Wide Handsome, YOU KNOW” lol. Thank you for your reaction guys 💜
The shadow for suga was jimin dancing, then the next clip it was rm singing and you can see that there was a shadow on the ceiling and that was j hope's shadow.
The posture looks like Jungkook. But some are saying that he's watching Jimin and that could be because he represented the Black Swan and their shadows, throughout the MV.
This is a amazing MV i loved it Jimin's Solo dances are out of this world it was beautiful when Jimin's wings came out my mouth dropped, like all the members said that Black Swan was made for Jimin he is the Black Swan 🖤🦢 . They all did amazing this MV got me full of happiness & excitement
*My 3 takeaways:* • white swan ➡️ black swan (via their suits) (Also just like concept photos ver 1 and ver 2) • when Hobi turns Suga towards him it’s like the EGO acknowledging and confronting the SHADOW • they’re aware of their shadows by the end bc JK is watching and waiting for the shadow to go away b4 he leaves
Also to add on to it, when jhope does that, he is saying "at the deepest depths, I saw myself" which can be the ego accepting the shadow as part of who you are. If you look into jungs theory, the ego is what represses the shadow. So the ego calling the shadow myself while pointing towards the shadow can be seen as the ego accepting shadow to be part of the person.
Art is back to the music scene. How could you not love music if it is presented to you this way. By the way have you noticed the the shadow dancing up in the ceiling when RM was doing his part? So cool.
This was crazy good, the visuals! And I just noticed something theory ARMY probably figured out the day the choreo dropped, but: J-Hope & Suga's part is literally the Ego vs. the Shadow...😯
1) The ALBUM is #1 in the TOP 5 MUSIC CHARTS IN THE WORLD, f8r biggest market down: *U.S., JAPAN, UK, GERMANY & FRANCE & sold in 93 countries, globally!! 2) Why's noone talking about the GORGEOUS, intricate, ornate, carved woodwork, metalwork theater w/all these incredible, beautiful rooms, nooks, stairs, mirros, ceilings, walls, unfinished rooms, floors, etc..Props to the location scout who finds all their beautiful locations for their mvs..Don"t know where it's at, but it could never be built nowadays, it would cost sooo much $/sooo many man-hours, to do all that intricate, ornate work... 3) The song, lyrics, music, atmosphere, mysterious meanings, their white to dark amazing outfuts, Jimin & Jungkook w/corsets, beautiful, artististic dancing & Jimin= 🔥🔥🔥🔥 4) They SLAYED once again💜💜
It wasn’t the kick that you guys watched where Hobi got kicked. It’s actually during the 2nd pre-chorus (when they’re getting up from the ground) where V accidentally kicked Hobi in the head. If you watch the live performance you can see Hobi just fix his microphone then keep on pushing. A true professional 👏👏
Additional comment here: 8:49 just like the movie Black Swan, the character died after performing on the theater. And here Jimin on the floor, i think he is dying just like the movie character bcs he is the black swan
THE MEANING BEHIND THE TRACK HASNT REALLY CHANGED, NOW THEYRE JUST SHOWING THE SHADOWS WHILE JIMIN PHYSICALLY DISPLAYS THE MEANING OF THE SONG & BRINGS OUT HIS WINGS (which wasn’t part of their original choreography) this particular choreography was done by brailizan dancer along with their company’s personal choreographer Mr. Son Sun-Deuk where then Jimin helps the others since it’s more his style of dance. *The song is emotional even though it may not appear that way, it’s about a dancer who dies twice after they stop dancing but the first death is most painful* Their most scariest fear for them is one day they’ll lose the passion for music & dance making them die their first death. THIS IS AWHOLE NEW LEVEL FOR THEM WITH A MORE GROWN UP MATURE VISUALS AND OUTFITS THAT ARE OUT OF THIS WORLD WITH THEM SWITCHING BACK & FORTH FROM LIGHT AND DARK!
Trust me..when i got the notification i cry..the pain i felt from ON still there..and bighit decided to put a salt in my wound..like what are they trying???demolished army for sure..if they say bts and bighit love army..THATS A LIE!!!!!!THEY WANTED TO KILLED US..SLOWLY..IN PAIN😭😭😭😭😭😭..my boys really beautiful..its brings back BLOOD SWEAT AND TEARS vibe.. Girl..i see you tear up when jimin spread his wings
I love how he was able to recognise jimin in the first scene without even seeing his face it proves how many BTS videos they have watched and how much they love them
Jimin used to be a contemporary dancer and I love that he gets to do more of it in their videos 💜💜💜 Also at 8:18 a spirit orb floated across the screen 😍
This MV connects perfectly to the orchestral version that was first released. Instead of allowing your shadow to swallow you up, by embracing it (because it's part of you anyway) you're able to control it and become stronger as a person. Everything just tie in so perfectly with the book that inspired their current album series: Map of the Soul. I'm NOT crying btw...😭👍💜🎶
Bts in black is the most satisfying thing to watch 💜🔥 this vid was so dope and it was jhope that got kicked but our hobi kept his posture and kept dancing to give us an amazing performance 🥺💜
FYI: Swan Lake is the legendary ballet that contains the black swan character...not necessarily the contemporary movie “black swan” with Natalie Portman. I believe BTS is using the themes from that ballet rather than the movie (albeit the theme is similar). Just want to clarify that.
In the K Media press release it was described as BTS becoming the Black Swans. If you look on the beginning their white suits have a small element of black and by the end of the video they are in all black.
We were all jungshook with this mv release, it wasn’t on their schedule that they release on twitter so no one saw this coming but it’s the best surprise ever. BTS and Bighit are always surprising us. It’s especially crazy because we wanted this after seeing the other version and were tweeting about them doing a mv for this song and they already had a plan to drop this mv on us wow I bet they were smiling at all those tweets about them doing a mv for black swan because they were already planning to release this mv and the fans didn’t know it
The two of you really do make the RU-vid video. I love the fact that you're both into it instead of only one of you being an army & the other one reacting out of first discovery.😊💜
The person in the shadows dancing was Jimin. He does all the dances in the spotlight and he shows that he’s suffering while dancing. So the shadow = black swan = Jimin
this song was about what will happen and their thoughts on like the day they can't continue dancing or making music anymore. watch MN Entertainment's dance that was uploaded by bighit labels. The first thing they show is a quote that says "A dancer dies twice. Once when they stop dancing, and this first death is the more painful." This quote I agree to as an artist myself. Notice how suga meantioned that will be his first death. This was what he was talking about
Nice reaction as usual. I love this song. Jimin and JK looked so good with the corsets on. Yum! This was about accepting their shadow selves too. So beautiful. -baby army NY USA
LOVED this reaction, how u were talking about the wings and then they were haha. and yes, with bts there is always something else at the end so u keep on watching 😋💜
I guess that shadow at the end was Jimin . As we can see he represent black swan and in black swan movie that girl gave her everything in last performence and then she was happy bc she knew that was perfect then she died .... Jimin was giving his everything too . And at the end he was dying . Kookie was watching Jimin Shadow as he was dying and when he saw he is right then he went too . He and Jimin was the only ones who wore the corsets .i think they had some Connection ..... as Jimin was dying kookie movies his head in pain too . That's what i think ....
"a dancer dies twice, the first is when he stops dancing and that is the most painful" basically the song talks about the suffering that will happen when they stop dancing
