Holssi and Shopper are connected. Shopper is the continuation of the story and journey started in Holssi. Holssi The fact that it was shot in LA, I believe is a key to what the song is about. This is the 1st time IU has made a video in the US . The opening scene of the figure floating is IU as she is coming to LA. The disruption the we see her on the ground looking across at LA.

She isn't going to settle on smooth ground (i.e. she is going to land and try to take root on comfortable easy terrain). She says she is a single spore (a soloist). On a different road.

(To reach her full potential) If any asks how I'm doing Send them the news "She has become a spore" (she has taken to the wind, flying without wings where she lands nobody knows, meaning how will things turn out no body knows). Follow me, gonna go and win (she will succeed on this different road). Follow me, even without wings (on social media etc she will be visible. And take this journeywith her) I'll fly in the center for everyone to see (like her last 4 indoor concerts in the round, she wont shy away or hide from the spotlight) The sky above is blinding. (All the lights and attention will be blinding. But she'll have her sunglasses) But I'm not afraid of heights at all. (She is not afraid of the risk she is taking. A risk many others, have advised her against taking.) I'll fly so close to the scorching sun ( the pressure and heat will be scorching she knows but she will push the risk factor in order to succeed. ) But she will sit on a cloud (and enjoy the show) And she might cause a little ruckus while she's at it just for fun. (meaning watch out, expect the unexpected in typical IU fashion) The road ahead won't be easy. (She knows the risk and how difficult it will be) But I won't fuss about it (she won't complain or make excuses) This was my choice, it always has been (no one pressured her or said to truely make it you have to make it in the US. It's her choice and always has been. Whatever happens it's on her no one else). The odds of it being easy are zero (acknowledging she is fully aware of what she is embarking on) Wish you all good luck. I'll even say goodbye (this sounds too much like her lyric in Eight where she is angry that her friends who passed away by suicide and " who just come and go as they please without even saying good bye". But she is saying goodbye, possibly saying she isn't committing career suicide. ) May God be with ya (everyone take care of themselves. Again in Typical IU fashion while many are worried about her she is worried about all her fans and wants them to be happy and safe) Se, see ya (she said goodbye)
