    “Black Swan” is inspired by a quote: “A dancer dies twice. The first time is when he stops dancing and this first death is much more painful”. “Black swan” is about their fear that some day they’ll lose their passion for music and this would be their first death.
    They chose to use autotune in this song was to show the group's shadow (they're deepest collective fears/secrets) vocally, the fear being that they would fall out of love with their craft. It was RMs idea to use the autotune to blend their voices, (which makes sense since he adores Kanye and Kanye uses autotune on his vocals). Black swan is based on Jung's work of the map of the soul where the shadow, ego and persona (and more) are all equally important parts to a person's construct. The dance moves in particular you can see in the beginning they pluck what seems to be invisible string instruments, while at the end of the choreography they seem to be hanging by those very strings like puppets. Their shadow (fear/secret) has consumed them.
    Ok, so... the song draws inspiration from both the ballet (Swan Lake) in it's choreo and imagery, but also draws a lot of inspiration from the movie "Black Swan", which in turn is heavily based on the Japanese anime film "Perfect Blue". Both movies break identity and deal (in a non-obvious way) with Carl Jung's theory of the self: Persona, Ego, Shadow. In these movies, a female performer spirals into insanity as increased pressures in her career cause her to lose grip of herself and reality. “Black Swan” tells the story of Nina, a passionate ballerina (Natalie Portman) who struggles to maintain her sanity while competing for the main role (the White Swan, Odette) in “Swan Lake.” Meanwhile, “Perfect Blue” follows Mima, a former (Japanese) pop idol whose sense of reality begins to waiver as she attempts to transition into a career as a serious actress. Both stories feature a female protagonist is put in highly stressful situations and that makes them question their identity and ultimately conjure up a doppelgänger that messes with their psyche (persona, shadow and ego, basically clash). Just as Nina suffers from the pressures of being a ballerina, Mima is also forced to deal with the strict expectations of being a Japanese idol. Their personal conflicts also bleed into their professional lives causing them to spiral out of control. In Nina’s case, it comes in the form of her oppressive mother and in Mima’s situation, it’s an obsessive stalker fan. At the core of the film, both protagonists have a psychological battle with themselves that results in hallucinations that blurs the lines between fiction and reality. In the end, like I said, these films break the self and deal with themes like loss of passion and the heartbreak that come with working for your dreams. Black Swan (BTS), at its core, reflects these themes. I think that Perfect Blue can be chillingly on point for BTS, since they too are idols and experience some of the things that Mima experienced as an idol and continues to go through. BTS reflect the core concepts of these movies, identity, and conceptualise them to reflect their fear of losing their passion for music and, by extension, losing themselves. They portray people who are afraid that music is all there is to them and are afraid of losing themselves if they lose their passion.
    This song became even more heartbreaking for us after their FESTA Dinner 2022, when they announced they’re taking a break from making music as a group. They expressed that they had been feeling lost and unsure of their identity as a group since the MOTS: 7 (this song’s album) release and the plan to take a break had been in place since then. They planned on having their world tour (MOTS Tour, which got canceled due to COVID-19) and then taking a break to work on their solo music, not only to find their unique flavour as artists, but also to rekindle their passion for music. Reading the lyrics for Black Swan, it makes sense that RM cried after writing this song. It expresses their fears at the time, how they felt like they no longer had an identity and feared they’d die if they lost their passion for music.
    And ohhhh boy, Jimin's dance haha he did train in ballet, albeit very minimally and as part of his main focus, which was contemporary and that's what he mostly trained for during high school. He is "professionally" trained in contemporary, hip-hop and idol dance. Even the members have said that Black Swan is Jimin's song, that he embodies the black swan. This is further highlighted in the 2020 MAMA version of Black Swan, where he does a duet with Jungkook! (here's the link for a breakdown of the moment twitter.com/mintynkks/status/1335236325373448192?s=20&t=2C90i3inGV9MBv5dgoiYQA & twitter.com/sopeshopes/status/1567652963367239680?s=20&t=7xjj1LVpvBUJbNtYOWfnMg… Spoiler alert, since I dunno if you plan to react to the 2020MAMA performance. Which I HIGHLY recommend, it has an amazing performance of Dynamite as well). Anygays, Jimin's dance style is unique and probably near impossible to replicate since its highly influenced by his 8+ years experience in martial arts + hiphop training. +idol training + his contemporary (and minimal ballet and Korean traditional) training. He does a lot of tricking and aerials you could see with his medialuna (which is a very dangerous movement to do, because you can easily over rotate and injure your ankles) and with his movements here twitter.com/pjmgem/status/1466261374355402757?s=20&t=u_YLlw3YOrAu5eb2FaijzA and here twitter.com/jikookheart/status/1465173437589110788?s=20&t=u_YLlw3YOrAu5eb2FaijzA, during the live performance, where he basically does a one-handed cartwheel to cover more space. Black Swan is one of my favourite songs from BTS!

  • @sd.1203
    @sd.1203 Год назад +41

    The lyrics are built on Martha Graham world famous choreographer. quote "a dancer dies twice - once when they stop dancing, and this first death is the more painful.” So it's about being scared of losing the passion for their work/art, what they love. Shadows and light. Black and white.
    and congratulations on your album ,, looking forward to it too..good luck ,!!!!!💜💜💜💜💜

    There's a quote by a famous dancer, sadly idr her name but she said dancers die twice, once when they no longer feel the music, and that's the more painful. So it's about what would happen if they lost their passion for music, and that would be their 1st death. But it does refer to mental health as do so many of their songs. It would also be detrimental to my mental health if they stopped making music. They've saved me from despair many times. And you're right, I wish more men cared about their mental health and worked on it. Men do not cry or open up as much as they should. I'm always encouraging my male friends to get therapy but they're all against it. I couldn't get my late husband to see a therapist, but after almost 30 years of marriage I finally saw him cry for the 1st time in only the past year before he died. (He died Jan 1 2022 so BTS is helping me get through it and keep going. ) Ty for your reaction and insights. 💜 Good luck on your single, I'll check it when it drops. Borahae 💜

      Hi there. I'm sorry to hear about your loss of your husband and I'm glad BTS is there for you as they are for so many of us. I think the dancer who's name you are after is Martha Graham. Borahae. 💜

    You had it right in the beginning! Well done for being so perceptive! Please don't worry about the pausing, we appreciate that you go in depth to understand the messages that are always in their movie-like music videos. It shows that you have a real interest in our tannies.
    Would you be able to do reactions on all the members solos?

    Thank you for your offer to chat. Incidentally you're not the first BTS reactor to make such an offer and I honestly think it speaks volumes of BTS' and ARMY's influence and love for others as well as yours. Would love to see your reaction to Jimin's Hidden Track LETTER on his solo album. His hug and goodbye to ARMY before he leaves for the military,

    It is also based on the famous ballet Swan Lake. It is a battle between 2 swans, one white/good and a black/evil swan. In most productions the same dancer plays both roles, signifying the battle within oneself between the light and the dark. The shadowself. BTS has a whole series about the shadowself. The BU. The album this comes off of is called Map of the Soul: 7.

    You will always find a very deep meaning behind most of their songs and this is one of the very reasons for their popularity too that their lyrics are so meaningful 💜
    And In my opinion, I haven't heard anything like black swan in the kpop industry like black swan has its own separate fandom because this song literally changed the trajectory of kpop 🔥🔥the instruments, the meaning of this song, the vocals, dance, rap, MV & their lyric delivery just beyond insane 🙌🏻👏🏻🫶🏻

    This is absolutely one of the songs the hits me deep in the heart. There is a saying "a dancer dies twice" once when they lose their passion for their dance and then physical death.
    As a former dancer this is EXACTLY what happened to me, my passion for dance left the harder i tried to pursue it. It still hurts til this day. Especially in this day and age where i can easily be reminded of it by videos.
    Ugh and the way the end the choreography is another thing that reminds me of my past (this song), they end in the same position they started. I had a performance in 2009 that i did the exact same thing, literally bts is singing my past life story.

    The BTS Army is World Wide, Sir. And have been....10 plus yrs ago. 2012? Long before 'you' or the 'General Public/new fans, discovered them. As such: Given their Millions of Army, today. We know 'exactly' what Black Swan and it's lyrics means. No need to 'school us', Tyler. There are vids that explain exactly what 'Black Swan' and it's intricate/ deep lyrics, means. We listened/followed and believed in them - long before they first appeared on 'The Ellen Show'/Jimmy Fallon etc or were featured on your abysmal - 'Award Shows' and 'Murica were forced to acknowledge them. Millions of us have been there from the beginning, Sweetie. If you like this song...feel free to delve 'Deep' into it's meaning. Other wise: As a new BTS reactioner. Welcome to our family. 💜💜
