I wrote this under another reaction, but want to share here, too. Woozi (a highly empathic INFJ) said he wrote this in the middle of the night, and it was very hard. He himself was going through a hard time (something similar to what's known as "the dark night of the soul). He said he had to dig deep and face all the "demons" and negativity that not only he was experiencing (think of their song "Shadow" which is all about doing shadow work and integrating/embracing your own "dark" side) but what people worldwide are facing right now, and it became very emotional for him and HARD to write the song. The purpose is to express what I would say the majority of the world's population are thinking/feeling right now, especially in those countries where people are under surveillance (Seungkwan, a whistleblower, in the corporate world, trying to escape like Truman did; DK finding a camera in his lamp and drones outside his window, so he smashes his TV which may also be spying on him; etc.), where everything wrong seems to be happening (Woozi doesn't even HAVE a driver's license and doesn't drive on purpose, so he probably would feel dumb trying to start a car and turning on the wipers instead...but Truman's car wouldn't start either), Mingyu having a stage camera fall on his car (just like the camera fell nearly hitting Truman in The Truman Show...Wonwoo trying to leave but getting blocked only to end up with it raining on only his right side (meaning the world is fake)...there are SO MANY references to The Truman Show in this video it's unreal!), Joshua saying goodbye to a friend only to find a button pin just like Truman did sharing Truth. They're all trying to escape the "set" or "stage" of life, but keep getting blocked. Truman desperately wanted to go overseas, purchased tickets, but was too afraid of the water to go. Woozi has a ticket, but keeps getting blocked...again, just like Truman did. The only way Truman could escape was to put a dummy in his bed (like Hoshi) so the producers of the show would think he was sleeping while he ran away. Did you notice that the drawing in the mirror that Hoshi is looking at is a monkey...referring to Sonongong...the mythical Monkey King of their latest blockbuster hit? And another thing I found significant is that as Dino is looking up at the night sky, the Big Dipper constellation changes into the Southern Cross. (The Cross.) The title of the book Woozi is reading is "Microwave and RF Design of Wireless Systems"...a tip of the hat to a "conspiracy theory" that we're being zapped with negative energies via technology (including our cell phones). It's significant that S.Coups finally walks over and turns off the lights on the set, indicating this life is nothing but a stage. Once the lights are out, that's when you see the ocean, with storm clouds forming in the background....just like the director of The Truman Show created to drown Truman once he finally beat his fear and got on a boat. TOO MANY references to the movie; and it's EXACTLY how people are feeling everywhere. Even Minghao (aka The8) said he's felt this way many times, and his only salvation--which is everyone's--was to find himself, which he does through meditation. So overall I think the video is beautiful...Seventeen letting their fan base CARATs (as in diamonds) know THEY UNDERSTAND what they're feeling...especially those in China and other tightly controlled countries...and that the way to overcome is to return to and find yourself. Don't quit, don't let the numbness (apathy) set in, don't hide your feelings by just laughing it off, don't fear your past self embarrassing you now because your past self isn't who you are now. FIND YOURSELF. FIGHT For Your Life (the billboards behind Jun read "Nothing Will Make You Happy", "Waves of Fear Coming To You" l, "Never Make Mistakes" and "Avoid Challenges/Stay Safe"...the messages/propaganda of the world and what we must fight to find ourselves and WIN.
Yes, this song is really good and have a good meaning🥰 This song is based on the movie "Truman show". BTW thank you to react seventeen ❤ and may you react to seventeen's performance on stage😊? Keep going boy😎
The Truman Show tells of a man who lives in a fake world. one day he began to realize and feel he is the stupidest person in this world. he escapes from this fake world in a boat to find himself. the story ends with everyone clapping because he is the main character in a movie without him knowing it. the audience is happy because the story ends with him starting to find himself 😊🎉
this song was such a emotional support to me cause my life's been very shit these past few months and they made it so perfectly i could directly feel it . word to word
3:49 you're torn on what seungkwan is doin why vernon is hiding Basically as this song refer to a movie The truman show So this part represents when truman realized that he's being watched,his life is being watched by the people(it can be seen clearly in seungkwan's scene) that's why he's trying to escape
In "Super", Seventeen become the anime/cartoon character from their childhood (that Hoshi sings about in "FML")...the hero that faces all kinds of misfortunes, but never quits and in the end wins. :)
It's a good song that shows how everyone in different parts of the world different working sectors everyone is having a hard time but fight for your life
you said that dks voice is amazing and I think we all now but if you take a look at the scene he represents idols.when the ball hit the lamp the camera inside the lamp has fallen . and when he opened the window there was drones for watch him .
i would like to tell you that this mv inspired by the movie called The True Man Show, the scenes in this mv are exactly the same as that movie, such a meaning full movie and this mv too of course
