The video opens up with the members in a museum; Jin, the oldest member, stands by himself. He is staring at the painting called “The Fall of the Rebel Angels” by Peter Bruegel the Elder (good angels fighting Lucifer/evil angels fallen from Heaven). On the left & right, there is a white and a black door, which represent the good side and the evil side. There is a ton of Icarus imagery in this MV which goes like this. This is what I gathered: At 4:48, Jungkook is on a swing, and behind him is the painting called “The Lament for Icarus” by Herbert James Draper. Jungkook is representing Icarus troughout the whole video (V also represents Icarus but in a different stage). The swing could represent Icarus being safe, the Icarus following orders (he is supported by a swing, safe from the wrongdoings of the world). Also, notice the lollipop in his hand. This could symbolize either another symbol of innocence, or Icarus’ age as he was a child. Later we see a drop of wax dripping on JK’s finger (6:25). This is a representation of the fall of Icarus and foreshadows what will happen to him later in the video (JK licking the said wax from his finger, a symbol of Icarus’ temptation that would later come in as his downfall, foreshadowed by the painting in the back). At 9:00, V is representing Icarus but also a fallen angel (personally, this scene can also symbolize the fall of Lucifer: he rebelled against God and fell from grace, tempting more angels to do so in the process, thus connecting to the painting at the beginning “The Fall of the Rebel Angels”, maybe this is why he smirks after he falls down the balcony). Behind him we see the painting “Landscape with the Fall of Icarus” by Pieter Bruegel the Elder. This scene represents the death of Icarus (he ignored his father’s warning about flying too close to the sun, until the wax that kept his wings attached to his body melted…and so fell to his death: Icarus falling to temptation. But then…at 9:16/9:25 we see Jungkook again, but this time he is floating. He in this scene is dead, and him floating in the air represents how Icarus started “floating” in the water after he fell and drowned, connecting V’s and JK’s scenes. We also see feathers floating in the air and on the floor as well (being underwater). So the whole Icarus imagery in this MV comes in like this: stage 1: We see JK/Icarus on the swing, Icarus being alive; stage 2: V/Icarus falls off the balcony and into the water; stage 3: The painting in the background (“Landscape with the Fall of Icarus”) foreshadows JK/Icarus when he is floating/drowned (him being dead/underwater); stage 4: the painting behind JK (“The Lament for Icarus”) foreshadows V/Icarus having no wings on anymore which is the final stage. Now, the kissing scene (RM reading a paragraph from Demian); also, this scene portrays Jin letting go of the balloon. This definitely represents him letting go of his childhood innocence, his youth and moving into adulthood. During the interlude of the MV, all the members run towards the exit except for Jin and V. If you notice, Jin has a very confused and scared look on his face while V blindfolds him with his hands. After that, a white statue with black wings appears: this statue represents Abraxas-the deity is a representation of the moral and imoral, good and evil as you already know. After that, Jin walks closer to it, takes a look at it then kisses it. This scene represents how Jin has finally embraced both good and evil into himself (by kissing Abraxas). We then see V with his wings cut off, giving a smile to the camera (him smiling could symbolize that Jin’s growth is complete, and he finally welcomed chaos into himself which leads to self betterment and growth: Theory of Carl Jung: accepting your shadow). So this whole MV in general is revolving around Jin most of the time, he is the main protagonist, his path to adulthood. The quote above the mirror is written in German (belonging to Nietzsche) and translates as: “You need to have chaos in yourself in order to give birth to a dancing star” basically meaning that if you don’t accept chaos (evil/temptation) into yourself, you will not be able to grow to your full potential and complete your individuation process. There is a lot of reference to art and biblical symbols such as the sculpture behind J-hope which is “The Pietà” by Michelangelo, symbolic within the BU of course, at 9:18 V is posing similar to “The veiled Virgin” sculpture by Giovanni Strazza, all the members sitting at a table in a very heavenly place, similar to the “Last Supper”, the apple and chalice and many others…
Amazing info thanks, I perceive that after Jin kissed Abraxas, V appears as the fallen angel Lucifer ( from latin Lucis Ferre, the light bearer) slowly turning around with a little wicked smile which seems to say "Gotcha" then everything gets tainted, Jimin leaking green from one eye (his part of darkness) etc ending with Jin as we witness one side of his face cracking before our eye (he saw the dark). There's a sacrifice here, a price to pay in order to access knowledge, some kind of corruption happens that causes an irreversible damage, the lost of innocence that can never be retrieved. Once you agree to eat the apple from the Tree of Knowledge ot Good and Evil offered by the Serpent you can never go back to Paradise that's why there's a lot of eyes covering in the mv because once you have enter the domain of the Prince of this World, he will send you the bill that must be paid with Blood, sweat and tears. I can't wait to find actual parallels between the mondane events in the story in regard to the undercurrent mystical allegory. I love this journey 👏
Til this day, these two mv's are my fav visually. The Korean one for its symbolism (and the hotness cuz I like science...) and the Japanese one its intricate imagery like an acid trip. The Japanese one is so violent, unhinged and beautiful. There is one story/symbol in each frame...in this one, we are really starting to see that there are parallel worlds (you also noticed it) Well, love it! Fun fact: the paintings "The fall of Rebel Angels" and "The fall of Icarus" by Bruegel the Elder are both in a museum 800m from my house. They are gorgeous!
Blood Sweat and Tears Japanese version was so confusing for me the first time. It was like an acid trip, really weird and unhinged. The BU is very hard to understand. Thank you for this reaction.💜
Hola Lory y gracias, paciencia, hay tantooooo que interpretar, tenemos hasta el 2025 y más... Ambas versiones son hermosas, cada video y contenido me acercan a la leyenda de la flor del esmeraldo... BTS!!! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
The Korean version is my favorite. Perseus with the Gorgon head is the dark statue. Don't know what it has to do with the story though. Good reaction as usual. See you soon.💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
La teoria habla como nuestra persona va cambiando y como debemos enfrentarnos en lo bueno y lo malo para asi poder ir aceptandonos y como vamos perdiendo la inocencia atraves del tiempo.
You should watch blood sweat & tears explained vids..there are two..one i don't remember creator name and the second one by bookish theories..it won't give spoilers on BU Edit: first creator is "don't worry I'm not afraid" and another one by bookish theories..this song is inspired by Hermann Hesse's novel "Damian"
@@lorydannagr Have you notice the connection seeing that Fake Love MV is connected to BTS BU also ??? watching these short films Is connected to Fake Love MV to not just Blood, Sweat & Tears MV, and I Need U MV also, just saying. 🥰
Soy un Army del 2014 y para que entiendas sus albumnes necesitas saber sobre la Teoria de Carl Jun ,inclusive hay un documental en español explicado.Aunque nadie sabe a ciencia cierta sobre tada la teoria pero fue hecha a base de un libro .Hay muchos mensajes ocultos dobre eso y sobre otros libros solo que hay que buscar esas referencias.Las pocas Armys antiguas sabemos que antes habia muchos videos sobre eso y comentarios pero ahora todas las nuevas no saben muchas cosas.Asi como el documental de Spring day hay otro mejor explicado sobre lo que en relidad se vivio en eae accidente .No se si es turco u otro idioma ya que no es ingles.
Hola mi niña,se está transmitiendo la historia del BU , pero en dramas según el webtoon "Save Me" y entenderás mejor como te escribí antes que ellos se guiaron según este webtoon y algunos consejos de ese sicólogo de ese libro que estudió la adolescencia.... deberías verlo Cariños mi niña bendiciones ❤️💜🥰

I speak Turkish and Spanish, but I cannot in long settings. So I need English for me to fully comprehend. ❤️
