Fun fact: this was filmed when BigHit wasn’t a big company, so they didn’t have a big budget so the cars that they were vandalizing were actually staff members cars, this goes to show how much faith the company put in the boys and did their best to support them in creating their music
It’s V with RM spray painting graffiti and running from the cops and it was Jin that V “crossed out”. And yes, it is Jin missing from the polaroid Jimin is burning at the very end. Butterfly (plays during part of Prologue and over the credits here) is a beautiful song about being in love with someone who is suicidal. It’s use was definitely not a random choice either time.
YES FINALLY. Run is one of my favorite BTS MVs. Also in the car blocking the tunnel scene? I read that the people in the cars were yelling "move your car" but weren't yelling at the rest of BTS to get out, which, weird. Also, about the "pairings", there aren't pairings, there are, if anything, trios: Suga with Jimin and Jungkook, RM with Taehyung and Jungkook, and J-Hope with Jimin and V, and Jin stands in the middle. 4:05 the one they were crossing out was Jin, and the one crossing him out was V (this will make sense in the future). 4:35 RM and V!! 5:32 yup that's V who knocked the house of cards! 7:54 Suga did set his room on fire. 9:02 that is actually scarily accurate omggg like your intepretation of symbolism is ON POINT. 10:40 Jimin is the one harmonizing! 12:42 YESS!!! THE PARALELS!!! All of them have certain elements or objects that identify them. Jimin's are a bathtub, water, and something else :) 13:17 there was someone missing, wasn't there? only 6 members were shown walking, it is safe to asume, Jungkook turns around to look at Jin. 14:22 Jin is in the scene, but as soon as it turns into a polaroid 14:23 he isn't anymore. Remember that. There's also a reason to why Jimin is the one burning the photo, not many people touch on it, but I'll explain once you get to the point where it is relevant.
Your mind never ceases to impress. I love the way you think. The comments are right, you will have to read the Webtoon, once you watch all of the MVs, Trailers, and other storyline videos.
I said it before, and I will say it again: I Really like your way of editing. The "loading..."part got me laughing so hard. Thanks for making your videos. I'm looking forward to them.
@@TheChampOfMedium you're welcome. I can't always watch your videos right away because of the time difference from America and Germany but I watch them as soon as possible! So good job!
"Run" to this day, is still one og my favourite MV songs of them. When I first heard "N. O" I never knew how far they would get. They would be called the new infinite because they took their dancing so seriously and it's honestly a part of how they got famous at first. As someone who loves dance, how could I not love that? I kept postponing seeing this because I wanted to sit down and really pay attention to it and so I did it now, as I'm trying to distract myself from the heart ache that is so called friends to be stabbing you in the back. Friendship is powerful even before it's a fully fledged thing, so when it's bloomed, it's a force to be reckoned with, as you can see here.
oh my gosh you are so fun to watch you work though this - I am loving it because it reminds me of my journey though the story - cannot wait to see more of your journey
Jin was getting crossed out, there's flowers in the mirror when it gets smashed (you will see them multiple again), yes it was Jin who was missing in the phote, last image is right before jimin tries to drown himself in the tub.
Not to give you a little poke for saying "The last one was barely a song" but I am not sure you were really attune with the inherent songs within. Two "Prologue" songs which have strong lyrical connection to the storyline are "Butterfly" and "House of Cards", the later of which was teasingly slipped into the credits. As with most BTS, inclusion of elements is a definite invitation to explore.. Sadly, Prologue because it is presented in a slower non-music video format tends to lead to a misplaced impatience in certain ARMYs who seem starved for mvs wherein scenes are changing ever second or two. These "Horn-Honkers" become inveterate tour guides to newbies just learning the storyline, disinterestedly pressing forward with a storyline itinerary of stops to be made. They would take you to Italy stopping at Rome and Venice but only let you see Florence from the tour bus window in passing Other noteworthy music in Prologue is Debussy's "'Claire De Lune", a haunting theme which will reprise big time in a later storyline video effectively echoing its emotional usage in "Prologue" but to even stronger effect. Another truly fun song heard in "Prologue" is "Ma City". I think the purpose of including it may be to get you to explore a non-mv work, providing spice to the video as opposed to adding storyline. Could be wrong and missing something there, who knows? So ok "the last one was barely a song" but it was packed with a lot of key music so where you go with that will be your choice.
Has anyone told you that there is a Webtoon that goes along with the story line? It's called "Save Me" Also the high note at 11:04 is Jimin with Jungkook
The harmonies your hearing are from first Jungkook and second Jimin and that is why when you hear Jimin's harmony it turns into Jimin singing and Jin drops off.
Well here's something to throw your mind into a whirl: You assumed that the missing person in the picture Jimin was burning was missing because they took the picture, if that is true who took the picture of the 7 of them that is the identical of the picture being burned except for the missing person? Important things to notice: RM lived in what looked to be a train canister, the reason he was so close to the train yard. Jimin wasn't the only one thrown into the tub so was V. Although we see tons of houses of cards technically the song isn't BU but some think it can be. A different version of Butterfly was the music of the prologue. The pairings are important: RM+V, Suga +Jungkook, JHope +Jimin and JIn alone. Fun fact: this was at a point BH wasn't as rich as they are now. The cars used in the rebel stage belonged to people who worked with the boys, like their managers because BH couldn't afford to rent any. The guys who roughed up Jungkook in INU were managers too. They did as much in house as they could because no budget.
Im a month old army, im done with the mvs webtoon, smeraldo. Now im in the hyyhnote. I also watch some explanation and other reactions coz i dont trust my self observation 😅 but i really love this. Its really hook me up.
I don't know as much about history as other ARMIES. But what I can tell you is that I don't know if you realized that V in the water is a reference to him jump in I Need You. RUN is one of my favorite songs from this era, the story is really intricate, Jin in the end does not take the photo, but rather disappears in some way ... For me to understand it, I saw several videos explaining it.
Bighit is really good at intertwining storylines with music. It would also be quite interesting to check out txt's storyline which is again I believe a metaphorical view of growing pains but in a more fantastical perspective. And it seems bighit is trying a new medium of "short films" to express that, which you may find quite cool
i find this type of storytelling really remarkable. As it brings a fresh idea to music videos ... It gives enough for you to enjoy the video on it's own at the same time, hints of a more conceptual, "just one piece of a larger picture" storyline.
Love what you said about "running" from adulthood. I think that's it; especially given that they all have problems that they don't deal with when they're together.
I would recommend reading the Notes there is one whole book available In English from weply/weverse from bighit and finish the storyline then read the save me webtoon then with album 7 they started putting out notes 2. They are worth a read. It gives more insight into the storyline and makes the mvs make sense. I hope this helps.
I really dig what you said toward the end of the video about how most of the time they seem to be running from something, but than the ending part is them walking forward and going forward.... I get that similar type of vibe too
I will give you a hit to understand what's happening... Think of the events as being on different timelines. Like the happy vs the sad as different timelines. And Jin as the one who is just watching it. I think this is a good way of saying this without giving anything away.
I think a very interesting take on this MV is that this acts as like an opposite view of the same events from I Need You. You see each of them with their causes of apparent suicide but they are often surrounded by their friends that they had lost a long time ago. I can see this MV as being their actions more surrounded by the reasons and the hopes of what they would achieve from them: feeling closer to their friends that they had lost along the way
I love how your mind works, you are on the right track. I myself is very amazed at how they talk about issues that young adults faces growing up and how they are helping them moving forward. 💜
I’m pretty sure the MVs aren’t telling the story chronologically, so some scenes from Run could be after I Need U/Prologue and other scenes are during or before. Once you’ve finished watching the videos Suga&Spice has a couple explainer videos that maybe you could check out. That’s where my limited understanding comes from. Also it’s amusing that you mention the older stuff is more hiphop based. It is, but The Most Beautiful Moment In Life is where they first started really expanding beyond that
Uhh word of advice? Go back and rewatch the old ones cause I think you are misremembering a lot of things 😂 Jungkook was not really starting fights in I Need U. It was less "Let me start a fight" and more "I am numb to the world and unaware of my surroundings and it led to me getting beat up in an alley but hey I won't really try to stop it cause at least I am feeling something." Which is really sad when I type it out and dear god boys what is this storyline again? 😂 EDIT: I also want to say, Jungkook's character is not really rebellious at All. I hate that I cannot tell you more about his character but I will just have to wait for you to learn more.
at the scene where jungkook look at the camera and slowly smiling while the other members just walk away, did u notice that theres only 6 members including jungkook? if you look at their clothes, jin was not walking away with them... and the one jungkook smiling at were not camera but jin who still inside his car... bc the way the light shoot at them is more likely to be from car...
I think, alongside keeping pairs in mind yeah, it is also very important to remember that they are happiest when they are together throughout the storyline. That is a main idea to hold onto.
16:27 Jungkook turns to look back. Don't think of it as him looking at the camera. He's walking down the street with the boys but if you count them there's only 6 total. He turns to look behind them where there are lights shining on them; the lights are headlights because it's Jin following in his truck and he smiles at Jin! 😄
The scene you timestamped at 16;01 is a foreshadowing the the Euphoria M/V (you'll understand once you see it... 😂) And the one with RM is actually V, the one being crossed is Jin and the one doing it is V. Jin is an important character here and you are correct that he is the third party as he is the only one who knows what has happened and what is happening in all timelines. And V has doubts about Jin and thinks Jin is lying to them about something because V has remnants of feelings from the other timelines, and he has flashes of things that happened in the other timelines in his dreams.
To me, the tunnel scene is like they are all self-destructing. Just like the part where V taunts the cops as they are running away. Like, everything is so f'd up that they don't even care about trying to fix it anymore.
I remember this era as if it was yesterday, we were all going c r a z y reading tons of theories on twitter, and in the next like 10 videos, we will look for anything, trying to come up with theories out of nowhere to understand this hahaha. Since the I need u era they start getting B I G, I believe that thanks to this genius storyline they became what they are today♡ ( On their first MVs on the walls or on the background you could see hints of what happened on the BTS universe later on, which gives me chills to think that BigHit planned all this from the beginning like whaaat) anyways, GREETINGS FROM MEXICO
4:42 that's Joon and Tae. And previously it was Tae spray painting Jin. 13:41 I want you to read the Notes. You'll understand more after. 14:49 No. Someone is missing from the photo.
Why did you have to upload while I was at work??? 😭😭😭 I'm kidding. I watched it as soon as I got home anyway 😊😊 I'm so happy to see you get back into the BU! It's confusing and you only get more questions the more you watch but it kinda all comes together in the end. Mostly. I'm still confused after three years of being ARMY but enjoying it 😅😅 I can't wait until you get to the webtoon, it explains a lot from the INU and RUN mvs. Ooooh. And I can't wait for you to see the WINGS solo short videos. They're really cool and kinda abstract. Lot's of disconnected imagery that only makes sense if you know what you're looking for. There's so much to look forward to! 😄😄😄 Everyone in the comments seems to be helping you perfectly, I don't think there's anything for me to add. You picked up a lot of the underlying themes, imagery, and hints by yourself. I hope you're enjoying the journey into the BU. It really is captivating. I'm so happy that I get to watch you discover this. You're a great reactor! I'd love to see you watch their debut MV, they're so young in it, so cute and small. Baby hiphop bangtan! 😭😭😭 Anyway, I hope you have a good evening/day! Annyeong~~💜💜💜 EDIT: I for got to say: YOU'RE GOING TO START RUN! BTS!?!?! I love the Run series. It's so funny! I can't even give a list of my favourites because every episode is the best. I'm definitely going to watch you watch that even though I've already watched it multiple times (????). It actually starts around the INU era so you're right on time in watching it with the other content you're up to. You might like the Gayo series as well. It's only a few episodes but still cool.
2:08 it’s a container, in the storyline he lives in poverty 2:22 I don’t understand why are people weirded out by a lollipop in a drink 2:40 On Stage: Prologue was not MV (Butterfly is a great song) 3:05 HYYH was their 2nd big era (I Need U - Young Forever) their 1st school era was strongly hip hop based 4:06 V 'crossed out' Jin 4:36 RM and V (pair) 6:42 it is a hospital, J-Hope and Jimin (pair) 7:52 Suga burned himself, Suga and Jungkook (pair) 12:51 Jimin and V were put in the bathtub 14:25 all 7 members are in the shot but Jin is missing on the polaroid This era was just beginning, you get to know the characters, their relations and their trauma... You are focusing on the growing up part and rushing to a conclusion. There is more to that story...
I don't think it'll spoil anything to say, don't stress over it not making sense because it's never going to fully make sense since it's not a linear narrative and is purposefully abstract/obscure. 🤷♀️🤪 like, dont expect a satisfyingly tidy sort of ending... it's not gonna happen. So just sit back and enjoy the confusion! 😄 (Unless you do what I did and tell yourself Euphoria is THE ending no matter who says different!)
Oh sweet child, v is the spray painter, and crossed v over in the beginning 🤣🤣🤣 Also, v is the one in the water. Also, jimin burned the picture :) I love hearing your thought process!
i'm so excited for you to figure things out but also worried because my heart still hurts after realizing the full story. the clips of them running and partying are before v killed his father and jumped off the thingy. after that, the friend group fell apart and they each suffered alone.
Yeah you're smart. Yes too all that stuff. Also check what was in the mirror when Suga broke it. Then watch the Japanese version please. It goes with this one.
Once you get through the whole storyline I recommend you react to a video made by the RUclipsr Xceleste and make a video/ live stream the official "Save Me" Webtoon by bighit x Lico which explains the whole storyline trough a comic,but only once you finish the storyline 🙃 This is the link to Xceleste's explaintion of the storyline ruclips.net/video/4Xs-WyzB_zg/видео.html This is the link to the official Save Me Webtoon by bighit x Lico www.webtoons.com/en/drama/bts-save-me/list?title_no=1514
Bts Universe is always great to analyse and make theories. its ok, u doing great so far.. the only mistake is the guy with RM vandalised is V not JK. just move on to next video.. Young Forever MV. love to watch your reaction. bear in mind the story still not end until today.. so enjoy the journey. 😊
When you finish the storyline, please react to their webtoon "save me". It might help you understand just a bit more BUT ONLY AFTER YOU REACT TO THE WHOLE STORY!!!
I understanding is there Jin is already death person and they can't accept to their loss, that's why Jin is always like third person he took the video of them. Prologue is about V who killed his step father and he try to suicide, the other member also suicide is just thought of their mind not real. I think JK already know Jin is no more with them that's why he try to explain Suga and fight for this (just my opinion) . One more things I think Jin is driving the car but another scene I saw on the car only 6 person then Jin look the photo he took all member is not around him only him.
You got most of it. The pairings- RM and V, JK and Suga, Jimin and J-hope, then Jin. You were on the right track when you said that when conflicts happen - RM & V get caught and JK & Suga fight - the house of cards falls down, which Jin made. Now think time travel. Each time something goes wrong, the timeline resets. Jin is trying to make things right, or building the house of cards. There is actually a canon webseries on webtoon (an app). It's just one season in and incomplete but the story is there. It's a pretty short read.
ok, enough: no the lollipop doesn't turn into a cigarette, ever, ok? It is just the stick of the lollipop and you can clearly see the remains of crusted sugar from the actual candy on it. I think that is why less-detail oriented ppl seem to think that it turns into a cigarette, but it isn't and it doesn't. It is however very likely in general, as many have stated, that it is supposed to symbolize a cigarette though. There.
It absolutely does. It gets dropped as a full lollipop, and when it hits the ground it's a half smoked cig with an ember and ash falling off. Less detail oriented lol ok buddy
It's nice you want to TRY to understand the story just from the videos BUT there were also clues in the awards shows videos they showed and the Japanese videos. And Oh yea the notes in CDs ..... clues just everywhere. If you really want to try to understand the story you need to read their webtoon, watch xCeleste and maybe even Bookish Theories videos ....

This^^^
It’s V with RM spray painting graffiti and running from the cops and it was Jin that V “crossed out”.
And yes, it is Jin missing from the polaroid Jimin is burning at the very end.
Butterfly (plays during part of Prologue and over the credits here) is a beautiful song about being in love with someone who is suicidal. It’s use was definitely not a random choice either time.
They are crossing Jin and RM is with V

4:35 RM and V!!
5:32 yup that's V who knocked the house of cards!

9:02 that is actually scarily accurate omggg like your intepretation of symbolism is ON POINT.

Their old Hip Hop base songs : No More Dream, NO, We are Bulletproof pt 2, Attack/Rise of Bangtan, Boys in Love, Danger, War of Hormone, Baepsae.
To me the scenes during BUTTERFLY are in character but they can equally look like “behind-the-scenes”
Yeah the scenes at the end could very well be behind-the-scenes because the boys are friends in every universe there is :')
The high notes are by jimin
Yeah that look V is giving RM when they are against that car is also making me wonder things😂
I would recommend reading the Notes there is one whole book available In English from weply/weverse from bighit and finish the storyline then read the save me webtoon then with album 7 they started putting out notes 2.

I'm never the type to comment all the time but thanks for what you do. I enjoy your contents. :)
13:20 --- when jungkook looked to the car, the parallel was when he was supposed to be hit by the car after he got into a fight in I NEED YOU
sorry, i just started going through all of your BTS vids and I am just as clueless as you are during this time :)
I'm so excited for you to finally get to finish the storyline

As you get further into the older music may help explain more of where this comes froms
Hello new subscriber here i really like the way u react to BTS and thanks for reacting 😊
I think, alongside keeping pairs in mind yeah, it is also very important to remember that they are happiest when they are together throughout the storyline. That is a main idea to hold onto.
everytime he does the 🤟🏽 in the beginning i do it too
In order to really understand everything you have to react to the wings shorts and read the webtoon Save Me
16:27 Jungkook turns to look back. Don't think of it as him looking at the camera. He's walking down the street with the boys but if you count them there's only 6 total. He turns to look behind them where there are lights shining on them; the lights are headlights because it's Jin following in his truck and he smiles at Jin! 😄
The scene you timestamped at 16;01 is a foreshadowing the the Euphoria M/V (you'll understand once you see it... 😂)
And the one with RM is actually V, the one being crossed is Jin and the one doing it is V.
Jin is an important character here and you are correct that he is the third party as he is the only one who knows what has happened and what is happening in all timelines.
And V has doubts about Jin and thinks Jin is lying to them about something because V has remnants of feelings from the other timelines, and he has flashes of things that happened in the other timelines in his dreams.
13:28 there only six members one member is in the car
7:40-9:03 hold onto this entire idea
To me, the tunnel scene is like they are all self-destructing. Just like the part where V taunts the cops as they are running away. Like, everything is so f'd up that they don't even care about trying to fix it anymore.
I remember this era as if it was yesterday, we were all going c r a z y reading tons of theories on twitter, and in the next like 10 videos, we will look for anything, trying to come up with theories out of nowhere to understand this hahaha. Since the I need u era they start getting B I G, I believe that thanks to this genius storyline they became what they are today♡ ( On their first MVs on the walls or on the background you could see hints of what happened on the BTS universe later on, which gives me chills to think that BigHit planned all this from the beginning like whaaat) anyways, GREETINGS FROM MEXICO
trains are very important in bighit universe
Good reaction
the web toon links everything so I recommend you watching the Wings short films and then the webtoon
4:42 that's Joon and Tae. And previously it was Tae spray painting Jin.
13:41 I want you to read the Notes. You'll understand more after.
14:49 No. Someone is missing from the photo.
If you liked Butterfly, there are a few live performances of it that I just love! You should check them out
The house of card=Seven Card 🎴= The group
Why did you have to upload while I was at work??? 😭😭😭 I'm kidding. I watched it as soon as I got home anyway 😊😊 I'm so happy to see you get back into the BU! It's confusing and you only get more questions the more you watch but it kinda all comes together in the end. Mostly. I'm still confused after three years of being ARMY but enjoying it 😅😅 I can't wait until you get to the webtoon, it explains a lot from the INU and RUN mvs. Ooooh. And I can't wait for you to see the WINGS solo short videos. They're really cool and kinda abstract. Lot's of disconnected imagery that only makes sense if you know what you're looking for. There's so much to look forward to! 😄😄😄
Everyone in the comments seems to be helping you perfectly, I don't think there's anything for me to add. You picked up a lot of the underlying themes, imagery, and hints by yourself. I hope you're enjoying the journey into the BU. It really is captivating.
I'm so happy that I get to watch you discover this. You're a great reactor! I'd love to see you watch their debut MV, they're so young in it, so cute and small. Baby hiphop bangtan! 😭😭😭 Anyway, I hope you have a good evening/day! Annyeong~~💜💜💜
EDIT: I for got to say: YOU'RE GOING TO START RUN! BTS!?!?! I love the Run series. It's so funny! I can't even give a list of my favourites because every episode is the best. I'm definitely going to watch you watch that even though I've already watched it multiple times (????). It actually starts around the INU era so you're right on time in watching it with the other content you're up to. You might like the Gayo series as well. It's only a few episodes but still cool.
2:08 it’s a container, in the storyline he lives in poverty
2:22 I don’t understand why are people weirded out by a lollipop in a drink
2:40 On Stage: Prologue was not MV (Butterfly is a great song)
3:05 HYYH was their 2nd big era (I Need U - Young Forever) their 1st school era was strongly hip hop based
4:06 V 'crossed out' Jin
4:36 RM and V (pair)
6:42 it is a hospital, J-Hope and Jimin (pair)
7:52 Suga burned himself, Suga and Jungkook (pair)
12:51 Jimin and V were put in the bathtub
14:25 all 7 members are in the shot but Jin is missing on the polaroid
This era was just beginning, you get to know the characters, their relations and their trauma...
You are focusing on the growing up part and rushing to a conclusion. There is more to that story...
I don't think it'll spoil anything to say, don't stress over it not making sense because it's never going to fully make sense since it's not a linear narrative and is purposefully abstract/obscure. 🤷♀️🤪 like, dont expect a satisfyingly tidy sort of ending... it's not gonna happen. So just sit back and enjoy the confusion! 😄
(Unless you do what I did and tell yourself Euphoria is THE ending no matter who says different!)
Just 👍
Oh sweet child, v is the spray painter, and crossed v over in the beginning 🤣🤣🤣
Also, v is the one in the water.
Also, jimin burned the picture :)
I love hearing your thought process!
no none can't think of anything you got right lmao even the members at the start. I guess you just need to finish it all to understand.
also keep track of broken mirrors/broken glass imagery 👀👀 and note what happens RIGHT AFTER IT 👀👀👀
10:45 nop the highnotes guy is Jimin
The story line makes me dizzy and crazy thus I just enjoy the songs and the lyrics.
i'm so excited for you to figure things out but also worried because my heart still hurts after realizing the full story. the clips of them running and partying are before v killed his father and jumped off the thingy. after that, the friend group fell apart and they each suffered alone.
Yeah you're smart. Yes too all that stuff. Also check what was in the mirror when Suga broke it. Then watch the Japanese version please. It goes with this one.
the way you called namjoon "rapmon" gave me nostalgia :(
Once you get through the whole storyline I recommend you react to a video made by the RUclipsr Xceleste and make a video/ live stream the official "Save Me" Webtoon by bighit x Lico which explains the whole storyline trough a comic,but only once you finish the storyline 🙃
This is the link to Xceleste's explaintion of the storyline

This is the link to the official Save Me Webtoon by bighit x Lico

I love your reactions but I recommend you to watch their videos from bighit channel because 1thek always pops up videos at the end
2013-2014 has more of the hip hop sound. It's great,too.
Please react to butterfly🙏🏻 😊💜
It is amazing 😍
Yaaaaassss
The right is you react to run before i need u,
Bts Universe is always great to analyse and make theories. its ok, u doing great so far.. the only mistake is the guy with RM vandalised is V not JK. just move on to next video.. Young Forever MV. love to watch your reaction. bear in mind the story still not end until today.. so enjoy the journey. 😊
When you finish the storyline, please react to their webtoon "save me". It might help you understand just a bit more
BUT ONLY AFTER YOU REACT TO THE WHOLE STORY!!!
Next do Boy In Luv or War of Hormones pls ☺️
The high note you asked about is Jimin. RM was with V. Jungkook with Suga. Jimin with J-Hope. Jin we tend to see what he’s looking at or thinking.
V is the one with RM
I understanding is there Jin is already death person and they can't accept to their loss, that's why Jin is always like third person he took the video of them. Prologue is about V who killed his step father and he try to suicide, the other member also suicide is just thought of their mind not real. I think JK already know Jin is no more with them that's why he try to explain Suga and fight for this (just my opinion) . One more things I think Jin is driving the car but another scene I saw on the car only 6 person then Jin look the photo he took all member is not around him only him.
🤗💝🇦🇷
can you please react to super junior MVs?
lo siento
black suit
mamacita

2ya2yao
are the best
you won't regret!!
You got most of it.
The pairings- RM and V, JK and Suga, Jimin and J-hope, then Jin.
You were on the right track when you said that when conflicts happen - RM & V get caught and JK & Suga fight - the house of cards falls down, which Jin made. Now think time travel. Each time something goes wrong, the timeline resets. Jin is trying to make things right, or building the house of cards.
There is actually a canon webseries on webtoon (an app). It's just one season in and incomplete but the story is there. It's a pretty short read.
Jimins high notes💜
someone is in wheelchair in this video
read the webtoon save me..
it will help you alot 💜
ok, enough: no the lollipop doesn't turn into a cigarette, ever, ok? It is just the stick of the lollipop and you can clearly see the remains of crusted sugar from the actual candy on it. I think that is why less-detail oriented ppl seem to think that it turns into a cigarette, but it isn't and it doesn't. It is however very likely in general, as many have stated, that it is supposed to symbolize a cigarette though. There.
It absolutely does. It gets dropped as a full lollipop, and when it hits the ground it's a half smoked cig with an ember and ash falling off.
Less detail oriented lol ok buddy
Wrong. In I Need U, RM drops the lollipop and when it hits the ground, it’s a cigarette.
Those high notes in the background is Jimin
Harmonies 🙃
It's nice you want to TRY to understand the story just from the videos BUT there were also clues in the awards shows videos they showed and the Japanese videos. And Oh yea the notes in CDs ..... clues just everywhere. If you really want to try to understand the story you need to read their webtoon, watch xCeleste and maybe even Bookish Theories videos ....
