It is absolutely devastatingly beautiful. The acting is so good it draws you into the story. The way the director talks about it and she is deaf and he is blind in one eye, the cube is a metaphor for society and the way it cuts out those who dont fit in like the disabled etc. Its such a powerful and perfect song/MV. The fact she tapped an award winning director of films shows in the quality of story telling.
The director suggests the cube represents society's discrimination. IU is mute or deaf and V blind in one eye. It is suggested from some notes she made that IU was casting V as her fandom UAENAs. I think the trigger was an incident with a fan with some disability being discriminated against. The faceless crowds were jeering at her. Things can seem perfect through a lens. The overall theme for the album seems to be that now she is in her 30s she has decided to continue doing what she does best but strive to get better, fly higher, not be a short lived rose but a dandelion seed spreading around the world. In shopper the Korean words for greed and ambition are the same word. One of IUs favourite devices, ambiguous context dependent words.
Still cry every time… Lots of good interpretations - and all can be correct, by design. The story I believe IU is telling, though, is about her and her fans. Even in a world where the cube exists (all electronics - videos, social media, articles) and Netizens (nameless and faceless) can throw insults…and targets of those assaults fear speaking up (she is mute)…her fans choose only to see her through a lens of love (camera…blind in one eye) - and together they will protect one another to the end. Something like that…
Ahhhh Koya and Namjooning! Kaye, you made me cry. It was such a lovely reaction. So genuine. The first time I saw the video I didn't even make it to the tiny video camera and tears started rolling and then the sweet scene when they pretended to eat, I was Ugly crying.
I don't think that the theme relates to anything specific to iu, but it is a general theme for people to make their own meaning for. The general theme being that hate can never destroy the bonds of love.
She has a gorgeous writing style, and one I think I only get to see the surface of through translations. I know she's doing a lot through word play that isn't always translatable. She's great at telling a story but keeping it focused on the emotional impact of the message. Even her happy songs often feel like she's touched on something so personal.
The first thing that came to my mind upon seeing the pile of clothes were images of the holocaust where plies of clothes, shoes, Jewelry and gold filled teeth were picked up outside the gas chambers in WW2. And today's younger generation the image reminds them of BTS's Spring Day which was based on and art piece in France that was a reminder of the Holocaust. As the the saying goes though who forget history are doomed to repeat it. Have so many really forgotten or were they never shown the images in the 1st place. And as this video plays out the holocaust imagery is a far more accurate representation. And yet only a literal handful of people among the many I have watched react to this video even mention the holocaust. And while BTS's song and remembrance is a good and correct thing it was an tragic accident. The holocaust nor the events depicted here are accidents. I am not judging but I am extremely concerned that we have lost our way and will only find it again after more clothes are piled up. I do love your reactions. IU has released 2 more MV's, no tissues needed for them but a thinking cap is required.
Ooh that is a very good point... It hadn't even come to mind, I think because other events are more recent, but now that you pointed it out it seems so obvious. Thank you!

이것은 스토리보다는 현재 일어나고 있는 일 입니다. 많은 사람들이 지금 이 순간에도 전쟁, 질병, 사고, 범죄, 노화 등 여러 이유로 죽음을 마주해야 하고 그들의 삶속에도 저들처럼 아름다웠을 때가 있었을 것 입니다. 나 자신에게도 마찬가지이고요. 어쩌면 저 일은 나에게도 언젠가 닥칠 일이기 때문에 또는 내가 사랑하는 누군가에게 닥칠일이기 때문에 저 죽음을 의연하게 받아들이는 모습에 내 심장도 같이 멈추는 것 같았습니다. 정말 상반되지만 아름답고 또 두려운 주제인 사랑과 죽음이라는 것을 함께 다루고 있는 듯 합니다. 난 정말 사람의 운명과 그 끝에 대해 가장 밑바탕에서 올라오는 절망과 삶의 애틋함에 대해 생각하며 밤새 울 수 밖에 없었습니다. 좋은 리뷰를 해주셔서 감사드립니다.

I cried all the way through it too. Your poet heart understands their fear and pain and the tenderness of those moments.
Still cry every time…

I love that interpretation! 🥰 (I also have cried literally every single time I've watched the video. It is inescapable.)

I was waiting for this reaction ❤ thanks
Thank you for the emotional reaction.

AMAZING ALL.....YOUR REACTION TOO
Thank you for reacting!
From a poetic perspective, what are your thoughts about IU's style in writing lyrics?

She's great at telling a story but keeping it focused on the emotional impact of the message. Even her happy songs often feel like she's touched on something so personal.
