Because Daechwita came out so long ago I watched that one first, many many times before the other two dropped. Haegeum felt more like an intellectual exercise, due to the long center section talking about societal ills, but Amygdala hit really hard. For his concerts, he started with Haegeum, then did Daechwita, and Amygdala was at the end of the setlist, and reversed the opening: he ended up flat on the (shrunken) stage and his inert body was carried off again by the hooded figures. At his very last concert he had a hard time singing his last 3 songs, he was sobbing so hard, though he was composed again for the encore --he always finished with The Last, which I always thought was the first of his songs about his mental health , soit was oddly recursive also. But at the last concert, the door from Amygdala appeared, and he was able to walk through it and close it behind him--can't tell you how at peace he looked when he did it--as though he'd finally healed; Crying now just thinking about it.
Thanks for this! Yoongi has really made transcendant art in so many ways. I don't think I've fully understood everything yet but I am really loving everything he's saying and portraying. Life, death, suffering, rebirth, healing, societal commentary in the internet era, polarisation, trauma, love, and a message of freedom to the next gen are all prevalent themes that he seems to be adhereing to in this album. Even during the concert, the set design and flow of songs contributed to the story with VCRs. I was surprised to find many clips from the HYYH era intertwinded with the personas and storylines of agust d and suga, creating a whole new meaning. Honestly there's so much but for now, I'm just really proud of him for bearing his pain, for baring his heart and moving on to a healthier place, finally free and focusing on the present. He's gotten a lot of commercial success too so I'm just really thankful for this era and all that he's done. Hopefully one day, I will be able to have a better grasp of his work. Thank you for the educating you have done here, I look forward to more!
Wow, what a clear and precise comment. I too was fascinated by this painful story of the evolution of Youngi. The portrayal of each part of story is so clear. I loved all 3 of these depictions of Youngi as he does clearly show how he kills his past life. Just like a butterfly being born? Such a wise man before he hits the age of 30 is almost a totally unknown phenomenon. I went thru hell in my life and it wasn't until I turned 65 that I became wiser and began to understand myself. He is so unique. A wonderful man. I so hope he doesn't still want to become a stone/rock. Thank you for your wonderfully clear comment and the origional artical was clear as well. I now think I know him a bit better.😊
Thank you. This was magnificently done. I love how he ended his concert -- when he finally walked out of the door from AMYGDALA with a blissful and triumphant smile on his face.
This was an excellent video - it finally tied all 3 MV's together. As a musician, I picked up right away on the unfinished resolution at the end of the songs. A cliff-hanger for sure, and it bothered me at first. Why not resolve the melody? Because his story is unfinished. ( I have noticed that technique in a lot of BTS's songs.) Thr scar healing in the 3 videos makes sense now. After seeing him live in LA, and watching the livestreams/replays, I believe he is a master story-teller in the world of music.
I had never watched them together, because Daechwita was released so long before Haegeum and Amygdala, but Daechwita solidified my sense that Min Yoongi was an artist of amazing depth. I’m 69. Before BTS, my response to rap was frankly hostile. In their different ways, Suga, RM, and J-Hope all changed my emotional response, but Suga hits differently. Even when there were not translations and explanations available, his rap felt profoundly personal and compelling. I still haven’t seen translations of all his music, but I can listen without knowing the precise meaning. The emotional meaning is clear and powerful. Thank you for your explanation.
