    As much as I’m fascinated at how Bookish Theories unpack all of these things, I’m really fascinated at how BTS kept telling us that our journey to discovering and embracing our ownselves is eternal and they’ve managed to do it in different ways and in different eras. The level of BTS’ artistry is outstanding. They literally never fail to blow me away.
    Thank you so much for this!! As always, Bookish Theories never disappoint. Nowadays I don’t watch any other theories and waited for yours coz you always give us a much more detailed and clearer analysis. Thank you for always giving us your best efforts to explain everything! 💜

      It's amazing how BTS has shown us how to embrace ourselves and that it is an ongoing thing. It's all in different ways and eras, but all of it tells us to be true to ourselves and not to be afraid of our shadows. It's not just BTS, but BigHit too :)
      BTS are true musicians and artists 💜
      Bookish Theories' videos are all well thought out and it's made watching music videos more fun.

    Jk also confirmed that he was accused of having powers and the people wrongfully accused him of being a 'devil'. He ran away from the imprisonment. He collapsed and opened his eyes to a new scene. He walked into the pond, the thorns cuffs dissolved ( medieval Lady of Lake reference and baptism) and blew the conch shell to find rebels/heroes like him. Uniting with others Jk march forward towards the new world (scaling the Pride Rock). Also in the dark scene where BTS are wearing robes, they are together but Jungkook is in the centre with the conch. Which could mean that not only he completed his inner journey but is able to unite others. And while Jk was able to unite but RM was the one to lead to the new world. It's just my theory.

    My interpretation is BTS is telling THEIR story as korean artists in the industry.
    Jin in the middle of war: When they began as KPOP idols, it was a battlefield. They were competing with many artists and idol companies.
    Jimin with the drummer boy: They were young, unarmed, basically going into the field on entertainment without enough experience or a huge company backing them up.
    Taehyung's scene with the girl: They were crucified by the industry and although they had the army with them they kept the darkness/struggles to themselves and the army was unaware of such (hence the girl was blindfolded)
    RM Noah's ark: But they believed in themselves and their leade. RM was leading them on this journey.
    Jin with the cages: They are all in a cage, bound to their contract, their status in the entertainment world.
    JK with Thorned handcuffs: They plan to escape their status. To break free. But as they do, there was alot of trials and struggles ahead.
    JHope's scene: The future, the death of JK. The past is done they are now focused on their future.
    Suga's cult: They built an ARMY, dedicated followers with almost cult like behavior.
    JK's scene: He is reborn and free. Now he calls out the the others to gather and unite.
    Dance break: They fought their haters, with ARMY behind them.
    The group altogether heading to pride rock: They are have successfully ended their journey and is now beginning a new one.

    I love the moment when Namjoon raises his hands together in prayer at 13:25, "The destiny of a single person can affect the world as a whole". This magnificent truth comes to life in RM, as he is not only the leader of BTS but also the English speaker who has assisted BTS and their positive message becoming known to the entire world. I think of him standing in front of the boys while he addressed the United Nations (symbolizing the world) and we often lovingly call him our "president". In his speech to the UN he reflected that he was only an ordinary boy in his childhood, dreaming that he was a super hero saving the world. This gave me chills then and it does again now. The most powerful moments in this video, for me, was the sight of Namjoon calmly and steadily leading the members of BTS forward, up into the light and to their destiny. And we are following joyfully along, not seven anymore.

    I love this thumbnail for the video, so beautiful :)
    Agreed, a beautiful masterpiece. I needed a break after watching it the first time lol Then I rewatched it and wrote down all of the things I saw, felt, and remembered. I remember reading many of the literature years ago. And watching youtube videos about Jung and many other works by different authors a while back, so it wasn’t too difficult to understand what was going on in the music video.
    It's definitely an inner journey. Yes, the collective unconscious; I think I've mentioned this too :)
    Also, Active Imagination. Active Imagination is a method of assimilating unconscious contents (dreams, fantasies, etc.) through some form of self-expression. The object of active imagination is to give a voice to sides of the personality (particularly the anima, animus and the shadow) that are normally not heard, thereby establishing a line of communication between consciousness and the unconscious. Even when the end products-drawing, painting, writing, sculpture, dance, music, etc.- are not interpreted, something goes on between creator and creation that contributes to a transformation of consciousness.
    www.carl-jung.net/active_imagination.html
    Going on this journey of discovery about themselves. BigHit and BTS have done this through their music and by sharing these music videos.
    I feel like I just read a whole book about them; a bit like Jung’s works and Tolkien’s stories. All of this is amazing 🥺
    I was also thinking that too; of the Drummer Boy with the part of Jimin, the child, and those abandoned drums. Jung was having dreams about these horrible conflicts before they even happened. It’s interesting to see them actually referenced it in the mv. The youth are always abused.
    Ravens are associated with death and the shadow. That’s true :)
    I noticed that too, the dead trees did look like the twisted shape of the thorns that bond Jungkook.
    Thank you for explaining Yoongi’s part, I couldn’t think of anything other than temple and prayer.
    Again, we’re on the same page with the Four Stages of Alchemy. I randomly saw an image on Instagram about the four stages of alchemy a few days ago. And I thought that the image really looks like something Jung would talk about; I read the beginning of the description below the image, I scrolled down more and saw his name. I remembered that I wanted to add it to my notes but forgot about it. I should have written that down 😅 but I did save the post.
    Here is the link: instagram.com/p/B7_arvAn9Og/?igshid=1x7gzjhoezfg3
    Thank you for mentioning it as well 😌
    Jungkook saving humanity with the bridge (I love that.) Agreed and also one of my favorite parts of the mv and song. And the natural lighting from the sun, just made it more amazing 😲🤭 I love hearing his voice in this section. I mentioned some of this in a comment on one of your other theory videos, of the cycle of resetting, especially with Jin in the ‘Save me’ webtoon. And the repetition of one of them dying every time Jin tries to save them. Poor Jungkookie, getting hurt and dying so many times in this mv 🤕😔 He's okay now :)
    I was thinking about that and it makes sense; so Jungkook really is the dove 🕊🥺😌
    Wow, I’m not surprised anymore, we are really thinking of the same things. The Conch shell part, I wrote Lord of the Flies in my notes last week. I also mention other aspects about the conch shell, I thought they were important too. I posted all my notes in other comments hours ago.
    So that red fire, cloak and hood scene really has to do with the underworld. I did say it reminded me of Lord of the Rings 🌋 Including the grassy plains as well.
    I noticed that too with Jungkook in the middle, the others standing on each side of him like that, it does look like a bird with wings. Birds also fly in that a v or arrow shape. It’s an obvious thing, that this cliffside looks like Pride Rock, especially when Simba comes back and it rains and everything grows back at the end of the film. I love the ending of the mv, looks visually beautiful. They really are the guides of others 💜

    Yes!!! I've been waiting for this!
    Also: I noticed that the crucifixion pose the boys are striking in different clips is reminiscent of the hanged man (XII) card in tarot when in a reversed position. This means-- "You may already be in a position where everything has been put on hold, much to your frustration. The reversal of the Hanged Man can indicate a time when you’re getting blocked, stuck or restricted because other people or other circumstances have left you on hold. While you feel resistant, it’s important that you surrender to ‘what is’ and let go of your attachment to how things should be. Be in flow with life, even if it’s not as you expected it (seriously, when does it ever go exactly as you expected!?), and loosen your grip.
    If your life has already been on pause for a period, the reversed Hanged Man may come as a positive sign that you can now move forward with a new perspective and a renewed sense of energy. You may find that events line up with more ease and flow, and you’re ready to go again. There may have been a break-through or stark realisation about how you need to do things differently. You’re prepared to make those changes and move ahead with a new mindset." (Biddy Tarot)

    Wow, I wasn't able to decipher the storyline into pieces but when I repeatedly watch the mv, i know one thing is for sure it's a story of endings and new beginnings and your explanation and theories explained it all. It's the reason why I been waiting for your explanation by the way. I love the way you explain things💜

    Thank you again for the awesome analysis!!!
    I can see why this would have taken you sooooo long to pull together!!! I really appreciate the time and effort you put into your analysis videos. There are so many points you bring up that I would never have thought of, and I can barely begin to understand just how much research you put into these videos at the amount of detail you go into. Thank you again!
    I wanted to add, that JK's storyline in the MV is also a reference to The Truth Untold fairy tale that Namjoon made up.
    It was about someone cast out from city walls, forced to live away from all he had known, he eventually built a small home and cultivated a garden (symbol for creating/living your life). Until one day, a woman happened upon his home and garden. The garden is where their fictitious flower the Smeraldo grows. She found the flowers to be so beautiful, she picked a few to take back to her home. As she did this he watched from a distance, he found her to be beautiful and didn’t want to scare her away. She would come back regularly after that day to pick his beautiful flowers, which he now grew for her. Each time he would watch from the shadows. He told himself that one day he will find the courage to speak to her.
    One day he was anticipating her arrival again, but this time she did not come, nor the next time. Years passed and she never came back to his garden.
    Eventually, he did find some courage to venture back into the walled city from where she came from. He inquired about the beautiful woman who would come to his garden and pick his flowers. He finally found out that she had passed away.
    He realized then, that he had waited too long. Now his dream to be with her will never come true.
    This was Namjoon’s long winded and extremely beautiful way of telling ARMY don’t be late to follow your dreams. Just do it. Because there will come a day when it may be too late to see that dream come true.
    Because of the back story to TTU, the very end sequence for JK hit me so hard especially ending with the word Dream.

      I don't think the Truth Untold story is made up by Namjoon. It was already a story from a part of Italy. It is about the Smeraldo flower. It's a myth or legend, like the stories about the Greek gods and heroes.
      I do agree, with the following your dreams part Namjoon and BTS talk about.

    By far the best theory I've seen. I was getting so sick of hearing Maze Runner and Lion King only theories...I knew BTS and Big Hit planned MUCH deeper meanings than just throwing in some movie references! Bookish Theories always delivers thoughtful and insightful ideas that are backed by actual research AND quotes/comments and ideas BTS and Big Hit have said/expressed in the past. I love how she ties together previous BTS videos and VCR's from live performances...like, we all just tend to forget that those things have importance in the overarching, long-term message they're trying to convey. This was just phenomenal. I applaud your intense research and ability to cohesively put together an explanation video that is not only easy to understand, but also enticing. BRAVO!

  • @swatinhavkar6971

    What I found out :
    1. Jin has the ability to time travel according to bangtan universe. When he brings the dove in the house full of cages... the other cages represent he has travelled back in time many times to save the dove (to save the people before war) and then he finally succeeds.
    2. Every member goes through the process of individuation according to their own story. Jungkook is the last one to go through the process of individuation. When he joins the others when the maze opens , there are other people coming behind them symbolises the people bts brought through the process of individuation. The people there are army's. They tried to show that they brought people along with them teaching them the process of loving ourselves , facing ourselves , accepting out shadow , ego and persona and all the other thing they taught us!
    3. If you take a look back at the bangtan universe, jungkook always lags behind the boys.... (the last one to complete every process) he is always running behind the boys like we saw in euphoria and we always see him a little sad. The boys are already together... either jk lags behind or the boys overtake him! In the last scene we see jk overtaking the other boys + with a bright smile... this means that they have gone through everything and all processess are completed!
    Does this mean that they have achieved their target of what they wanted people to know.... does this mean they'll disband now??!! Idk I'm crying already!

    This is so fascinating and well researched. I love this channel. Always has very in depth analysis. Also, this whole concept of cycle and every one is a replica of the universe itself and that the past, present and future is there in everyone echoes Hindu philosophy as described in their religious texts the Bhagvad Geeta. But then again a lot of ancient religions portray the same thing differently. I find a lot of Jung's theories reflecting that.

    Before this MV came out, thought to myself: "Hm. I really like the Kinetic Manifesto video, if this one doesn't contain stuff about the BU, I'll prefer it over the coming one." Then this one was released. And I didn't get it. I sat on it, then I started making connections to the BU. I like them both now. Thank you for helping me make even more connections.

    Thank you for this amazing analysis. The boy with the drum reminds me of German author Guenther Grass book “ The tin drum” , which is about Hitlers time in Germany. The boy does not look like a child, but as a grown-up in a body of a child.

      @onizeonwukeme2200 4 года назад

      Exactly this! The first time I saw that boy, I thought he looked like he had been through hell. The boy looks like a cancer survivor, or as you said 'a grown up in a child's body'.
      I think the little boy represents damaged parts of ourselves that we try to suppress, or parts or ourselves which we didn't feed enough. They end up looking sickly and malnourished like the boy.
      Until we an embrace and nourish our inner child, each dream (like the discarded drums), will keep dying or going to waste/discarded.
      That's just my thought.
