We react to BTS' ON official mv while having a beach day. SO MANY THEORIES, HELP. Let's connect: @JesicaAhlberg / jesicaahlberg / jesicaahlberg Romina: / romigoldes Location: Chrissy Field, San Francisco, California #BTS #BTSon
The little girl supposed to represent ARMY and she blindfolded so we won't see the bad times or sadness that they been through until Taehyung takes it off we are able to see the happiness only. ( This is what I read on weverse)
The little girl in the MV Rina Johnson posted on her IG that she plays Tae’s little sister actually...so maybe she reps the ‘inner child’ of Tae’s fictional sister in the HYYH storyline..
Her: can I zoom in? Me: realizing it's my phone and I can't get a full observation of jk's tats 😭💜😣👌 Btw I just live your videos they make be smile like a dumbass but I really enjoy this thank you.

Don't consider myself a fan girl at this point, but watched the MV yesterday. It was one of the strangest, but best things I've ever seen. The guys are really talented!
First time in seven years they finally surprised me 👀 with so much symbolism and the moment I saw Jin battle field w/dead bird & empty cage, Jimin w/things of the past, blindfolded girl w/Tae & neck tattoo (represents infection & broken wings), namjoon w/ animals & ship, binded jungkook running & escaping, Hobi field of twisted trees, Suga in underworld, the wall and large rock it literally reminded of Noah’s ark with maze runner combination of the Lion King with the different time period outfits & scenes, apocalyptic fake love dance break, dove of hope, horn call of freedom and trying to understand story behind jungkook then he does the young forever run up the rock smiling and i’m like 😱🤯 After watching the second time OMG OMG I think finally got the meaning toward the end Jin released the dove (represents JK), the horn call of freedom, walking through the wall, the firestorm and up the rock is them beginning of a new chapter with new songs, genres, and concepts. Regarding the wall I believe this is BTS’s way of showing that they’re ready to move onto the next chapter of hope & freedom and also showing how far theyve come, which is why they put their debut track “NO MORE DREAM” changing to “DREAM” (PAST MEETS PRESENT) *THERES SO MANY APOCALYPTIC FUTURE REFERENCES*
Love seeing the love you have for BTS as a fan of their music and skill. I’ve been falling in love from a dancer perspective doing my reactions and just love seeing other creators do the same. God bless and much success. You are amazing
Here is my Theory. Excuse the dissertation in advance. They had a lot going on, but it made sense after I applied the Jung theory thing to it and after I remembered all the clues they gave us in the MAMA 2019 performance in the VCR. They had this whole title Journey to myself in there and how future meets past (*J-hope wearing modern clothes, the broken down car in Jimin's scene, the modern/futuristic looking wall, remember in ego how j-hope drove towards the past instead of the future), Past meets present and present meets future to make this whole eternal journey. The hero's journey. The Hero is one of the main archetypes in Carl Jung's theory. Here I think the Hero is Jungkook who I think is also a representation of John the baptist (associated with the announcing of the coming of Jesus, peep the thorns in the handcuffs and him being in the river blowing the conch which is basically a symbol of call for freedom and renewal, also reminds me of the scene about Jesus baptism and how the word literally means being born again, and also in the bible, there is the mention of a dove who came down during the baptism which represents the holy spirit and the holy spirit is basically the spirit of renewal and purification). John was a prophet who was later imprisoned for his beliefs, literally a hero who later became a martyr which ties to the theory of sacrifice ( in the Omelas book bout the child living in misery for everyone to be happy). Also the bound hands I think are a direct reference to Matthew 14 there is a whole paragraph where it talks about John the Baptist being imprisoned by King Herod. John was the forerunner/announcer of the messiah who represents a wind of change, death of the old beliefs and birth of the new. This whole mv depicts the Hero's journey, and so it flips through many archetypal events like death, separation, birth and it keeps repeating itself like a loop. That connects to the storyline where Jin keeps going back in time to fix things. Notice how all the people who died in the beginning, and the dove who was dead as well seemed to come back to life at the end and show up at the wall. And then there are the archetypal motifs by Jung like the apocalypse, the deluge/flood (Noah's ark), creation (the whole scene at the end where everything is born again all green). But in order to give birth/to create, one must basically destroy (remember the whole quote from the Demian book from the wings era) so when jungkook blows the conch he is basically calling for that renewal/revolution. To free themselves from the old in order to have the new, so that's why right after you see the whole dance sequence where it is all dark and crazy (looks like a whole battle scene really. And then everything gets set on fire before being born again/ created again. And then other Jungian archetypes are the wise old man (RM in Noah’s role), The child (this is pretty self-explanatory and it makes sense that V would be the one to be with the child, he has a whole solo in his album called “Inner Child” and it also makes sense that the child is a girl, Carl Jung concept of Anima/animus). The john the baptist thing could totally be tied to the Noah (wise old man, Jungian archetype)/ Noah's ark thing. Both John and Noah were prophets and they were both ridiculed for their beliefs and the messages that they preached (like BTS in the beginning when they were made fun of for their name and their concept, and the way they dressed or did things), both John and Noah were announcers of a new world/ a new change, John announced the coming of Jesus (a new wind of change) and the abolishment of the olden beliefs of the time while Noah announced the Flood which basically destroyed the whole world and as a result a new world was born again (Just like BTS basically paved the way for a whole industry and also they are the forerunners of a new type of art, they are innovative in everything they do and also try to help change their generation, and the world with their music). Also, the dove thing is present in both Noah and John the baptist stories, Noah I believe released a dove to find out whether or not it was safe to go outside which I think happened when Jin released the dove first before they entered the wall. The dove is also a representation of love and peace and freedom which is why Jin was mourning its death so much in the beginning. Another Jungian archetype is the wise old woman/caretaker (Jin taking the bird home with him, and suffering at seeing the pain around him, in the storyline Jin is also the one who always tries to go back to save everyone and in BTS Jin also happens to be one of the caretakers, taking jungkook to school, cooking on birthdays etc..). There is also the God archetype which is all-knowing/idolized and tends to lead and be followed (Peep Suga in the church, in an almost sect-like setting with all his followers, who happen to be young people) which is attached to the trickster archetype (in this case may be J-hope because of his whole Munchausen syndrome thing in the storyline and how Loki the trickster god carries a bow and arrow, like J-hope in blood sweat and tears). But Like I said the two archetypes are closely attached because the trickster archetype can be a god/ a spirit/ a human who has secret knowledge or intellect and uses it to disobey conventions which would explain why his followers are dressed in red and yellow, the colors in that scene I believe references the 18th-century Scandinavian depiction of the trickster God Loki. {side note: BTS has always taken the role of spokespeople for the youth, and they have always gone against convention, against the system and they always had the expertise and the skills/knowledge on how to deliver their message and their whole name basically takes that into account. And I also thought it interesting that Suga take one the God archetype closely attached to the Trickster archetype considering how there is a running joke in the fandom and the group about how much random information and knowledge he has stored in his brain lol and how close he is to J-hope, they had/have a whole sub-unit/ship name called SOPE} The robe (red robes to symbolize energy, passion, and action in this case) thing ties to their Fake love era. How? Well back during that time they had to destroy their masks in order to face themselves aka their inner selves. In this map of the soul era, they did confront their shadows but remember that confronting the shadow doesn't mean getting rid of it, it is more like trying to achieve balance, in order to reach individuation, so by accepting and understanding their shadow they have basically broken down the wall between their outer selves and their inner selves which you see dressed in the cloaks like in fake love and by doing that they have basically shattered/destroyed/set on fire their old world and basically made a whole new one (all the green at the end) where everything is balanced persona/shadow/ego. so that is why you see the destruction right after they show up in the red cloaks with jungkook (the announcer) holding the conch signaling the end of the old and the beginning of the new. And that is why instead of the fireballs going towards the shadow figures, they are shot towards us, the viewers and towards the world around them. I mean it is pretty fucking insane how much detail and care went into this. There is a connection with their project Connect BTS (global art project) with all the paintings and the setting references and choice of clothing during the mv. Like the bindings on jungkook’s wrists do remind me of the Gormley exhibit in New York, The whole dance scene with the bonfires, and the whole set there remind me of the ritual of care thing, and I believe some people were talking about that on twitter, the whole greenery, the trees, the rivers remind me of Catharsis. There is also all the references to tracks on the album, like UGH (J-hope being indifferent and singing in front of the corpse being eaten by the raven/crow), Black swan (the abandoned and broken drums in Jimin's scene, signaling abandonment of music/the death of their art), we are bulletproof the eternal (coming together at the end of all the trials crossing the wall together), Ego (Journey to the past) etc... RM did say that this album was all about rebooting, and rebirth so it makes sense that the mvs main focus would be the journey to that rebirth/reboot. And this is just one of the main things in this mv, there is just so much detail and so many more Easter eggs and clues related to the storyline and the album. They even paid attention to the choices of birds and animals they put in the mv. I would be here all day if I went into all the details. This whole thing is a masterpiece.
Bro, this needs to be pinned to the very top. Thank you for your thought provoking insights, pointers and analysis. This is seriously a treasure trove of information I'm just salivating here. Cant wait to really dig in and read, rewatch all the MVs, books from Jung and other pointers for this, like you've said, masterpiece. Thanks for the contribution. I knew this fandom had intellects like no other but people like you are what makes it great. Thanks!!!
@@michaellim4165 I appreciate the compliment but I think we all have our specialties and this just happens to be what I enjoy doing and am good at. And I'm happy to help.
As a straight asian male who could not get dates 20 years ago, I wished bts arrived earlier in time. My older asian brothers reading this, do you agree? . 😉
Jungkook the best Jungkook talented Jungkook acting Jungkook on song Jungkook cute Jungkook king Jungkook dance Jungkook hight note Jungkook cute Jungkook center Jungkook smiles
I'm really delighted when i find you being happy watching bts mv. Thanks for loving Korea and Korean laungage. I happened to watch your bts mv reaction video, and i finally found ur channel. You are as wonderful as bts. Please keep having love in korea and also bts.
As many other music videos from them, they are symbolic in terms of the journey led them to where they are now. Each side of the wall may mean the transition from something. One side from the other. Transitioning from the past!!!
