[SPEAKER_00]: Bora, hey, I come on like army.

00:32.985 --> 00:38.254
[SPEAKER_00]: Bora, hey, have you guys seen BTS on the hot ones episode?

00:38.715 --> 00:41.038
[SPEAKER_00]: Because I loved it so much.

00:41.499 --> 00:42.340
[SPEAKER_00]: I did too.

00:42.981 --> 00:48.530
[SPEAKER_00]: Jim and being like, come on, wing, come on, wing, wing, getting everyone else to do it.

00:49.171 --> 00:51.014
[SPEAKER_00]: Just freaking iconic.

00:51.776 --> 00:54.500
[SPEAKER_00]: Yungi saying, man, never cry.

00:54.540 --> 00:55.822
[SPEAKER_00]: Man, never cry.

00:55.842 --> 00:57.645
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I know.

00:57.625 --> 01:00.529
[SPEAKER_00]: Those are like my two models right now, like getting me through.

01:01.110 --> 01:11.725
[SPEAKER_00]: I watched it with Jeremy and before we started it, he was like, who do you think is going to do the best with it and who do you think is like going to do the worst and have the hardest time.

01:11.765 --> 01:17.473
[SPEAKER_00]: And I was like, well, take on, take on is going to struggle so much.

01:17.453 --> 01:19.316
[SPEAKER_02]: And he doesn't like spacey food.

01:19.376 --> 01:19.696
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

01:19.777 --> 01:26.907
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, like God bless Taehyung for like sticking to his guns on he just ate like those two wings and he was like, I'm done.

01:27.027 --> 01:29.051
[SPEAKER_00]: Guys, like I'm not going to go for it.

01:29.071 --> 01:31.074
[SPEAKER_00]: He knew he did not hold his breath for him.

01:31.114 --> 01:32.215
[SPEAKER_00]: Exactly.

01:32.496 --> 01:32.976
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

01:33.818 --> 01:34.419
[SPEAKER_00]: I loved it.

01:34.499 --> 01:45.095
[SPEAKER_00]: And then I mean, I was living for Jay Hope and Jen next to each other just freaking out like Jen especially.

01:45.115 --> 01:46.617
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it was like

01:46.597 --> 01:53.891
[SPEAKER_00]: Sean's last question for them when he said, strike a pose that represents how you feel after eating all these wings.

01:54.272 --> 01:56.797
[SPEAKER_00]: And Jen, like interrupted him, put his arm across Sean.

01:56.957 --> 01:57.599
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm sorry.

01:57.679 --> 02:02.428
[SPEAKER_00]: And then he just had to yell for a minute because his mouth was so on fire.

02:02.408 --> 02:06.194
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I loved, I loved his reaction there.

02:06.234 --> 02:06.815
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, generally.

02:06.835 --> 02:07.336
[SPEAKER_00]: I did too.

02:07.356 --> 02:12.023
[SPEAKER_02]: I think it perfectly showed all of the BTS's members, like personalities.

02:12.043 --> 02:15.688
[SPEAKER_02]: I love you, Gigi, just really like gritting through it.

02:15.749 --> 02:17.251
[SPEAKER_02]: Try and let's do it.

02:17.431 --> 02:18.192
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, literally.

02:18.212 --> 02:22.359
[SPEAKER_02]: Show, but you could see the shruggle that he was going through.

02:22.399 --> 02:26.245
[SPEAKER_02]: But yeah, Jay, I hope in June, on the end, we're just cracking me up.

02:26.685 --> 02:31.032
[SPEAKER_02]: My sister, Bridget, who is not like a BTS fan or a K-pop fan, really.

02:31.012 --> 02:34.437
[SPEAKER_02]: She watched it just because she loves hot ones so much.

02:35.258 --> 02:37.280
[SPEAKER_02]: And she really appreciated it.

02:37.340 --> 02:47.674
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, even saying like, the questions are really fantastic that he asked them, I'm like, wow, that's really insightful for her to not be a BTS fan, really.

02:48.175 --> 02:50.758
[SPEAKER_02]: But the questions were really great that he asked them.

02:51.179 --> 02:58.268
[SPEAKER_02]: And I loved seeing Nomjoon like, visibly taken a back by like the teacher question.

02:58.248 --> 03:18.687
[SPEAKER_00]: It was just like so fighting to see him just like visibly like move backwards like excuse me Like well, how do you know but that's what I love about hot ones is that they do their research like from the beginning in Sean Evans has always asked like these such like Like deep cut questions that you're you really don't expect.

03:19.148 --> 03:27.816
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I loved I loved RM's reaction to that I loved that he kept the shades on too like yes, you know, and then he talked about it a little bit

03:27.796 --> 03:33.188
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, Jim in and John Gogh obviously killed it.

03:33.348 --> 03:36.776
[SPEAKER_02]: They had no surprise that they were the two to do the best on it.

03:36.876 --> 03:40.825
[SPEAKER_02]: Like J.K. was casually eating the hottest wing at the end.

03:40.845 --> 03:42.970
[SPEAKER_00]: You made it look so easy.

03:42.950 --> 04:12.805
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I mean also major props to BTS because when other celebrities go on hot ones nowadays they take like the tiniest little nibble of the wing like don't touch the lips to it minimize the burn tiny little bite as long as they take a tiny little bite at counts BTS I feel like they were eating the whole wing they were taking a big bite out of these wings like even as they got to the super spicy ones so major kudos but yeah jungle jungle and

04:12.785 --> 04:15.930
[SPEAKER_00]: like seemingly unaffected every time.

04:15.970 --> 04:17.192
[SPEAKER_00]: They're like, yeah, whatever.

04:17.232 --> 04:18.394
[SPEAKER_00]: This is delicious.

04:18.674 --> 04:18.955
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

04:19.355 --> 04:19.756
[SPEAKER_00]: No reaction.

04:19.776 --> 04:20.557
[SPEAKER_00]: It was fantastic.

04:20.617 --> 04:22.280
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm so glad that they got to go on the show.

04:22.320 --> 04:23.101
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

04:23.482 --> 04:24.263
[SPEAKER_00]: I absolutely love to.

04:24.363 --> 04:26.025
[SPEAKER_00]: I also just have to honor a woman.

04:26.586 --> 04:31.995
[SPEAKER_00]: Jay Hope dancing to swim in the middle of like being in pain incredible.

04:32.155 --> 04:33.477
[SPEAKER_00]: Like dancing it off.

04:33.457 --> 04:35.940
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, like what else would he be doing?

04:36.061 --> 04:38.664
[SPEAKER_00]: But yes, definitely enjoyed it.

04:38.724 --> 04:47.797
[SPEAKER_00]: I love that they got to do this as a promo and what a great interview for them here as they're continuing to roll out Auditang and get into their tour.

04:48.418 --> 04:56.549
[SPEAKER_00]: Sean was able to talk to them about like their music videos as well and everything else that they're working on which we're gonna get into a little bit today also.

04:57.690 --> 04:58.131
[SPEAKER_00]: Bye.

[SPEAKER_00]: Welcome back, where you're hosts, I'm Kayla, and I'm Bethany, and this is Standing BTS.

06:28.430 --> 06:30.713
[SPEAKER_00]: Your favorite informative fan-girl podcast.

06:31.093 --> 06:37.602
[SPEAKER_02]: Today we're going to hang out for about an hour, and we are going to be talking about the three incredible music videos that we've gotten with Auditong.

06:37.662 --> 06:47.616
[SPEAKER_02]: So we're going to cover Swim 2.0, and who, again, we're going to talk about the setting, the meaning of the music video, the aesthetics,

06:47.596 --> 06:48.677
[SPEAKER_02]: our favorite moments.

06:48.918 --> 06:49.498
[SPEAKER_02]: You name it.

06:49.518 --> 06:52.142
[SPEAKER_02]: We're going to be covering in detail today.

06:52.162 --> 06:52.322
[SPEAKER_00]: It's me.

06:52.342 --> 06:57.348
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, before we get into it, we want to say thanks so much, Iconics for being here and for all of your support.

06:57.448 --> 07:03.936
[SPEAKER_00]: If you'd like to support us a little extra, you could consider joining us on Patreon at patreon.com slash CNN BTS.

07:04.437 --> 07:08.001
[SPEAKER_00]: Thanks for being here for all of your support and of course for listening.

07:08.555 --> 07:11.679
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, so let's dive in to swim.

07:11.699 --> 07:12.661
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

07:12.681 --> 07:16.026
[SPEAKER_00]: A little bit of the style and setting to get us started with.

07:16.226 --> 07:20.572
[SPEAKER_00]: Obviously this has a very nautical style, a lot of nautical themes.

07:21.073 --> 07:25.599
[SPEAKER_00]: What's cool about this is that it was filmed off the shore of Lisbon Portugal.

07:25.639 --> 07:32.689
[SPEAKER_00]: And obviously some of it takes place filming on the ocean, on a boat that you can see on the side of the boat, they've named it Adi-Dang.

07:32.669 --> 07:38.018
[SPEAKER_00]: And then the beginning and the end of the music video is filmed at a maritime museum.

07:38.078 --> 07:39.401
[SPEAKER_00]: That's also there in Lisbon.

07:39.461 --> 07:51.522
[SPEAKER_00]: So cool that they're like on location and, you know, BTS continuing to use like real practical arts instead of like CGI in their videos here.

07:51.502 --> 07:55.651
[SPEAKER_00]: because they cut a green screen to you know, but they're like, yeah, but they really went for it.

07:55.671 --> 07:58.898
[SPEAKER_02]: They were actually on out on the ocean on this ship.

07:59.680 --> 08:04.230
[SPEAKER_00]: There's a main actress that we see in this music video and that's Lily Ryan Hart.

08:04.310 --> 08:08.700
[SPEAKER_00]: She's known for her role in Riverdale and also in a movie Look both ways.

08:08.680 --> 08:16.270
[SPEAKER_00]: She, she looks so familiar when we started the music videos like we got to know her from somewhere But she does an excellent job here.

08:16.290 --> 08:29.288
[SPEAKER_00]: We also between the on the boat We see like an upper deck of the boat and the lower deck of the boat is kind of where we got So we see her there on the on the lower deck or the below deck quite a bit

08:29.268 --> 08:29.749
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

08:30.109 --> 08:31.491
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

08:31.612 --> 08:37.581
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, just going along with the nautical theme, there's tons of just ship-like items that we see.

08:37.621 --> 08:38.663
[SPEAKER_02]: There's a lot of rope.

08:39.043 --> 08:41.948
[SPEAKER_02]: There's the captain's wheel, like the ship wheel.

08:42.008 --> 08:43.791
[SPEAKER_02]: There's maps, compasses.

08:43.851 --> 08:49.159
[SPEAKER_02]: There's a particular compass that we see that really has that instead of like North South East West.

08:49.239 --> 08:51.563
[SPEAKER_02]: It says swim, which is so cool.

08:51.643 --> 08:52.845
[SPEAKER_02]: Love that detail.

08:52.825 --> 09:02.948
[SPEAKER_02]: There's a telegraph that we see non-journ using so like a lot of just not-a-call things that you would see on a ship and of course these massive sales.

09:03.129 --> 09:05.253
[SPEAKER_02]: I love the sales on this ship.

09:05.314 --> 09:10.205
[SPEAKER_02]: It is gorgeous, the aesthetic like I just picked her part Jimin in front of these gorgeous sales.

09:10.285 --> 09:12.049
[SPEAKER_02]: Like it's really,

09:12.029 --> 09:18.339
[SPEAKER_02]: Such an aesthetic that I love so much that I was like for my concert outfit I had to go full swim.

09:18.559 --> 09:19.260
[SPEAKER_02]: I told you Caleb.

09:19.280 --> 09:20.602
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm like, I got to do the nautical.

09:20.903 --> 09:23.667
[SPEAKER_02]: I know everyone's going to do the nautical, but I'm obsessed.

09:23.988 --> 09:39.572
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, yeah What's really cool about this music video is that it rained when they were shooting on that upper deck And they're ended up being a natural rainbow that happened behind them, which is just so special and perfect for the shooting of this music video

09:39.552 --> 09:50.669
[SPEAKER_02]: Feel like it's very symbolic for BTS like a very happy time that they were like shooting this music video together after all this time a part Audit on it just felt like good luck like a good admin.

09:51.430 --> 09:56.458
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, so beautiful And then just to touch on their outfits a little bit.

09:56.478 --> 09:58.000
[SPEAKER_02]: They're all wearing pretty much

09:57.980 --> 10:09.670
[SPEAKER_02]: The same similar kind of outfit, a lot of naval jackets, Billowing white shirts, sailor like outfits with like sailor white hats, especially when we see them on the upper deck being a little bit more goofy.

10:09.991 --> 10:11.452
[SPEAKER_02]: We see them with those sailor hats.

10:11.552 --> 10:16.276
[SPEAKER_02]: And so, yeah, love just like the button, the gold buttons.

10:16.416 --> 10:20.901
[SPEAKER_02]: People were talking about how like how many buttons John Gocas and like June had one button.

10:20.921 --> 10:23.603
[SPEAKER_02]: And it was like what the hell, like just all the buttons.

10:23.663 --> 10:25.945
[SPEAKER_02]: But yeah,

10:25.925 --> 10:53.350
[SPEAKER_00]: gorgeous aesthetic truly i'm obsessed with it it is it's it has like a level of sophistication to it that i can really appreciate that's what i was thinking especially with this yes extreme handsomeness from all the members with these naval jackets that they have they're like navy blue they have like the gold like tasteful trim on them and like it's not too much right it's not over the top but

10:53.330 --> 11:03.225
[SPEAKER_00]: it's kind of a visual visually uniting them under one look as and I love that that was the choice here for their first music video back of like hey we're all one unit here.

11:03.245 --> 11:16.485
[SPEAKER_00]: Look at us all in the same outfit like a uniform but they all look incredible in the outfits and like we get like the super handsome shots of each member just you know like around the bow or like

11:16.465 --> 11:29.863
[SPEAKER_00]: you know, in like the ropes like climbing on it like I can't get over the shot that's like Jim and Jim and RM like on the ropes, you know, I just, oh yeah, yeah, and the ropes exactly look incredible.

11:29.943 --> 11:36.972
[SPEAKER_00]: So the outfits where I love the outfits, I love how they contribute to the the

11:36.952 --> 11:45.022
[SPEAKER_00]: Getting a little bit into the storyline or the meaning that we interpret from this video, we feel like Lily represents army.

11:45.322 --> 11:51.990
[SPEAKER_00]: This feels very obvious like any time that BTS has a woman in one of their music videos like what they did in their solo work.

11:52.330 --> 11:55.754
[SPEAKER_00]: We were like, oh this feels like representation of army here.

11:55.774 --> 11:59.559
[SPEAKER_00]: At the beginning of the video she goes to a maritime museum.

11:59.659 --> 12:03.263
[SPEAKER_00]: It feels like she's looking for inspiration and connection.

12:03.243 --> 12:13.943
[SPEAKER_00]: And at the museum, she looks deeply into this ship, and it's like she's able to mentally transport herself to where BTS is on the bow of Auditong.

12:14.764 --> 12:20.695
[SPEAKER_00]: And as she's visualizing, she finds herself awake on the ship on the lower duck, you know, in like...

12:20.675 --> 12:39.392
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, a little bit maybe of a different outfit there while she's visualizing and also like in this nice bed And she feels BTS's presence and has a sense of longing as if she's searching trying to either find them or discover something within herself too

12:39.608 --> 12:43.213
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, so yeah, she transports herself there.

12:43.253 --> 12:52.848
[SPEAKER_02]: We see her just like the sense of longing and BTS are on the ship, but they can see her, however, she cannot see them.

12:52.868 --> 12:57.094
[SPEAKER_02]: And BTS seemed to notice and

12:57.074 --> 13:14.104
[SPEAKER_02]: See the sadness and longing that she has for them and they look like they want to reach out and like comfort her But they can't because they're not actually with her It looks like they're either a past memory or they're just I don't know and her in her imagination

13:14.084 --> 13:19.674
[SPEAKER_02]: But like they are longing for her too, like it looks like they want to comfort her as best as they can.

13:19.694 --> 13:25.044
[SPEAKER_02]: And even though she can't see them, you can see that she feels BTS in the moment.

13:26.306 --> 13:33.339
[SPEAKER_02]: The member will walk past and maybe they don't make eye contact, but she kind of looks over her shoulder, like she could feel their presence there.

13:33.359 --> 13:36.885
[SPEAKER_02]: And you really see that...

13:36.865 --> 13:46.038
[SPEAKER_02]: Not only is she like kind of feeling BTS, but there's a scene in particular where she's on the lower deck and she really lets loose.

13:46.058 --> 13:47.339
[SPEAKER_02]: Like she's dancing.

13:47.379 --> 13:49.743
[SPEAKER_02]: She's super overcome with emotion.

13:49.783 --> 13:52.506
[SPEAKER_02]: I love how raw her emotion looks too.

13:52.527 --> 13:54.169
[SPEAKER_02]: Like it looks real real.

13:54.209 --> 13:58.615
[SPEAKER_02]: Like the kind of dancing that you truly would do with no one's watching.

13:58.715 --> 14:03.562
[SPEAKER_02]: Kind of like you know, like complete, let loose full emotion.

14:03.622 --> 14:04.543
[SPEAKER_02]: It's

14:04.523 --> 14:27.466
[SPEAKER_02]: It's like she's cleansing her feelings and emotions and it's a bit central, as well, with how she kind of, like, touches herself, you know, but she gets to a point where she falls to the ground and you see a tear coming out of her eye and from here on it kind of seems like she's in a more hopeful and empowered state as she walks up to the upper deck.

14:27.947 --> 14:33.012
[SPEAKER_02]: She gets out onto the ledge and it just looks like she's ready to dive in and keep swimming.

14:32.992 --> 14:56.400
[SPEAKER_02]: I just feel like that's totally like her, if she's representing army, it's like us listening to like BTS music and like getting absorbed in it and being able to process through difficult times and like come out on the other side of it.

14:56.380 --> 15:14.473
[SPEAKER_00]: why you know why run away you can run in you're the only place that I want to be and it's like acknowledging that you can go through struggles and hardship but like you know you can see those high waves coming but you can still just swim swim and this is like when she's it's like she's

15:14.453 --> 15:20.021
[SPEAKER_00]: going through that and then realizing and coming to that point as it's also coming to that point in the song.

15:21.162 --> 15:29.614
[SPEAKER_00]: So it matches up really well and yeah I love to see her like hopeful and climbing the deck of the ship standing on the edge of it you know.

15:29.634 --> 15:40.309
[SPEAKER_00]: After that we see her back in the museum and she's drenched in sea water and though she's literally soaked we see this more

15:40.289 --> 15:53.241
[SPEAKER_00]: And so overall we feel like of course she resembles army by army who are needing hope or inspiration and how although BTS may not physically be with us, their music can reach us and help us when we need it.

15:53.621 --> 16:00.267
[SPEAKER_00]: And it also feels like maybe a representation of army longing for BTS while BTS brought hiatus and doing solo work.

16:00.827 --> 16:10.296
[SPEAKER_00]: But regardless through, you know, through this song, you know, we can say this song specifically, we can get that hope to keep swimming and to keep going on.

16:10.276 --> 16:11.558
[SPEAKER_02]: Absolutely.

16:11.618 --> 16:15.904
[SPEAKER_02]: And I just love the symbolism of all of this and the storyline that's portrayed in here.

16:15.964 --> 16:20.431
[SPEAKER_02]: First I'm watching through, at least a couple times watching through, Kali had mentioned to you.

16:20.471 --> 16:34.271
[SPEAKER_02]: It seemed more like a magic shop parallel to me of like not physically being together, but having that space that we can go to to be with their music and feel connected to them and motivate us to keep going when times are tough.

16:34.752 --> 16:35.693
[SPEAKER_02]: So yes.

16:35.673 --> 16:36.595
[SPEAKER_02]: I have sex, love it.

16:36.756 --> 16:37.297
[SPEAKER_02]: I love it.

16:37.838 --> 16:53.715
[SPEAKER_00]: Honestly, when this music video and the album dropped at the same time, we had to watch music video three times in a row, and then had to physically pull ourselves away from it to start the album because we were so mesmerized, like, it's a beautiful music video.

16:53.695 --> 16:54.516
[SPEAKER_00]: gorgeous.

16:54.596 --> 16:59.101
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, every single member looks so phenomenal, beautiful, handsome.

16:59.201 --> 17:07.830
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, just jaw dropping in every moment, like they really chose, you know, the best, the best parts that they got from the film.

17:08.231 --> 17:14.778
[SPEAKER_00]: We're just going to talk about a couple of our favorite moments, we guys, we really tried to limit ourselves because we could talk forever.

17:14.898 --> 17:22.386
[SPEAKER_00]: So we're asking to share two favorite moments just because we have so much to talk about today, but for me,

17:22.366 --> 17:39.970
[SPEAKER_00]: to eat to eat okay so for total okay but for me like immediately one of my favorite moments is at the like towards the beginning of the video Jim in on the sales of the ship walking like I don't I don't know ship anatomy okay but it's like the

17:39.950 --> 18:01.013
[SPEAKER_00]: the wooden part that's at the bottom of the sail that holds it to go out and he's like standing on that and the sail is like billowing up behind him and then there's another shot of him like on the other side of the sail and his hands like pressing in across to lily on that side oh my god like a ghost haunting me in the best way like it is

18:00.993 --> 18:01.875
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm obsessed.

18:01.915 --> 18:07.507
[SPEAKER_00]: He looks so stunning and gorgeous and it's like the siren in his element.

18:07.647 --> 18:11.836
[SPEAKER_02]: You're just like, oh my god, he pressing through this sail.

18:11.856 --> 18:14.542
[SPEAKER_02]: Like the building of his shirt with this like white sail.

18:14.783 --> 18:16.386
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, it's literally

18:16.366 --> 18:19.450
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm in this blonde hair and him looking down at us too.

18:19.470 --> 18:20.371
[SPEAKER_02]: I, yeah, that shot.

18:20.452 --> 18:20.572
[SPEAKER_00]: Yep.

18:20.912 --> 18:21.253
[SPEAKER_00]: Yep.

18:21.273 --> 18:22.775
[SPEAKER_00]: You've got it exactly.

18:22.895 --> 18:23.195
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.

18:23.656 --> 18:25.438
[SPEAKER_00]: It's just, it's something to me.

18:25.458 --> 18:33.710
[SPEAKER_00]: It recreates a little bit of what I think is one of his most iconic moments is the Melan Music Awards 2019 where he danced to I need you.

18:33.750 --> 18:41.280
[SPEAKER_00]: But it was a contemporary dance where he had all of these beautiful, like white silks that he was dancing through and around and utilizing.

18:41.340 --> 18:43.363
[SPEAKER_00]: That's what these sales are giving.

18:43.403 --> 18:45.546
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

18:45.526 --> 18:48.369
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I see the connection.

18:48.509 --> 18:49.130
[SPEAKER_02]: Absolutely.

18:49.170 --> 18:50.731
[SPEAKER_02]: It's a fantastic moment.

18:51.532 --> 18:55.596
[SPEAKER_02]: One of my favorite moments that I think is a lot of our most favorite moments as well.

18:56.257 --> 19:01.201
[SPEAKER_02]: And I am not alone in having this thought, it is not an original thought by any means.

19:01.382 --> 19:04.224
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought it was in the moment because I was watching it with UKla.

19:04.785 --> 19:11.892
[SPEAKER_02]: And it's the moment where Lily is walking towards the camera and she looks hurt or lost or whatever.

19:11.932 --> 19:14.875
[SPEAKER_02]: And walking behind her.

19:14.855 --> 19:21.667
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't want to say in the shadows because it's sunlight, but you know, like literally looks like a shadow behind her and it's Yungi.

19:21.707 --> 19:27.718
[SPEAKER_02]: And he looks, he is giving Mr. Darcy from Pride and Prejudice.

19:27.998 --> 19:30.042
[SPEAKER_02]: Like the 2009 movie.

19:30.062 --> 19:31.104
[SPEAKER_01]: Here and nightly version.

19:31.144 --> 19:31.845

19:31.865 --> 19:32.046
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

19:32.066 --> 19:33.608
[SPEAKER_02]: I think that's the 2009.

19:33.648 --> 19:34.209
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't remember.

19:34.270 --> 19:35.091
[SPEAKER_02]: But

19:35.071 --> 19:43.202
[SPEAKER_02]: It is literally, like, Mr. Darcy, like, I will take care of you even when you don't know it.

19:43.282 --> 19:45.024
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, I am, like, here for you.

[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.

19:50.271 --> 19:51.813

20:12.789 --> 20:19.641
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean when you said that because remember you and I watched Pride and Pregniness together like I don't know a year and a half ago

20:19.621 --> 20:26.048
[SPEAKER_00]: And when you said that was like 1,000 percent that's exactly Mr. Darcy specifically from that movie too.

20:26.209 --> 20:27.133
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean

[SPEAKER_00]: Let's get on it.

20:48.184 --> 20:48.484
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

20:48.785 --> 20:50.607
[SPEAKER_00]: A03 writers come on

20:50.587 --> 21:05.608
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, one of my other favorite moments is when Jay hopes first starts, and he's splash drip And he pulls the rope down and he had the raining on set when he was recording his part So he's all well

21:05.588 --> 21:13.902
[SPEAKER_00]: And like, okay, I'll up until this point in the music video, especially the first time watching through we're appreciating We're like, oh my god, they they're so handsome.

21:13.942 --> 21:15.444
[SPEAKER_00]: They look so good this moment.

21:15.464 --> 21:17.287
[SPEAKER_00]: We're like holy shit.

21:17.307 --> 21:19.331
[SPEAKER_00]: Like look at you So hot.

21:19.351 --> 21:22.336
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, this is when you say I'm girled the hardest for so hard.

21:22.616 --> 21:30.870
[SPEAKER_02]: It was a flash drip and like as he's like yanking on this massive rope and pulling it down Drenched in water really like

21:30.850 --> 21:38.126
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my god, it's the first time watching it or hearing the song and we're like, what's splashing?

21:38.226 --> 21:38.908
[SPEAKER_00]: What's dripping?

21:39.188 --> 21:40.231
[SPEAKER_00]: What do you mean?

21:40.251 --> 21:41.794
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, you know, yeah.

21:42.415 --> 21:43.758
[SPEAKER_00]: So we were like, uh-huh.

21:43.818 --> 21:45.242
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, I love that part too.

21:45.302 --> 21:46.765
[SPEAKER_00]: He's pulling the rope.

21:47.086 --> 21:49.551
[SPEAKER_00]: He just fuck so fucking hot.

21:49.531 --> 21:52.314
[SPEAKER_00]: Jay hope serving everything to us.

21:52.754 --> 22:17.340
[SPEAKER_00]: The best won't not the best part, but like right after that to The rest of BTS, this is when they're in like their little sailor outfits with the white sailor hats And this is when they're like this cracks us up like literally laughing out loud every time we watch it Where they're like all tugging on the rope together and they just think it's supposed to be a little bit of like a comedic You know like filler in there of that moment.

22:17.360 --> 22:18.441
[SPEAKER_02]: I love that they put a

22:18.421 --> 22:21.044
[SPEAKER_02]: that in there, because it's just their personality shining through.

22:21.225 --> 22:29.355
[SPEAKER_02]: We love, like, in butter or any other music video where you see a little of that humor and just like silliness come through, that is BTS, yeah.

22:29.375 --> 22:43.653
[SPEAKER_00]: And we see them, like, I think they're, they're like, turning a big ship wheel to that's maybe like the anchor wheel and just like seeing that, like the dichotomy of like super hot Jay Hope splash drip and then BTS pulling, you know, pulling the anchor up was, yeah, love it.

22:44.094 --> 22:46.437
[SPEAKER_00]: Absolutely.

22:46.417 --> 22:50.885
[SPEAKER_02]: My other favorite moment, although it's very hard to pick, but of course it has to be a Tae-yung moment.

22:51.045 --> 22:56.616
[SPEAKER_02]: It's the scene where Lily had like, come out of that, where she was like doing that emotional dance.

22:56.636 --> 23:08.357
[SPEAKER_02]: She goes into a hallway, and Tae-yung is just charging down this lower-neck hallway, and he looks like determined and so serious, and so charming, and he like,

23:08.337 --> 23:30.700
[SPEAKER_02]: bump shoulders like really aggressively with her and it's just like I felt her impact that she felt for him like it was it's just a really hot moment like I'm like damn Taehyung and him some so handsome brooding brooding brooding my presence serious sexy yeah yes mm-hmm oh I haunted because I'm trying to get through to her

23:30.680 --> 23:40.754
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I mean, right after that, too, is like where Jen is like watching her, like kind of through the mirror behind it, like worried about her, I really love that moment to understand that.

23:40.774 --> 23:42.816
[SPEAKER_00]: John looks so tender in that moment.

23:43.277 --> 23:43.818
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

23:43.838 --> 23:44.599
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh.

23:44.619 --> 23:46.842
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, we love the split music video.

23:46.862 --> 23:55.494
[SPEAKER_00]: If you can't tell, I mean, I think we were watching it every day, you know, until we got these next two music videos, too.

23:55.514 --> 23:58.678
[SPEAKER_00]: And then we had more to add into the rotation.

24:00.093 --> 24:03.759
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, so let's go ahead and get into 2.0 music video.

24:04.239 --> 24:06.823
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's start with the little bit of the setup for this.

24:06.943 --> 24:10.989
[SPEAKER_00]: So this music video is heavily inspired by Old Boy.

24:11.009 --> 24:15.777
[SPEAKER_00]: Immediately when I saw the first teaser, we only got like 10 seconds of content.

24:16.378 --> 24:19.382
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, why the fuck does this look like Old Boy right now?

24:19.582 --> 24:25.932
[SPEAKER_00]: And I just have to say, if you haven't seen this movie, don't like seriously, don't look like it.

24:25.912 --> 24:28.634
[SPEAKER_00]: But it's I have now seen it twice.

24:28.674 --> 24:29.695
[SPEAKER_00]: I watched it last year.

24:29.755 --> 24:36.321
[SPEAKER_00]: My boyfriend and his friends are all like they love it And then I just re-watched it for this music video and Bethany.

24:36.341 --> 24:40.425
[SPEAKER_00]: I got you to watch it too It's a South Korean cult classic.

24:40.525 --> 24:41.826
[SPEAKER_00]: It was made in 2003.

24:42.206 --> 24:55.918
[SPEAKER_00]: It's one of the most iconic films to come out of South Korea But also it's literally the most fucked up movie that we've ever watched like yeah Like I mean you want to scrub your brain after you watch it

24:55.898 --> 25:15.325
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, I'm glad that you told me to watch it because it is so heavily like this 2.0 was so heavily inspired by Old Boy that I needed to see it in order to understand just like how heavily inspired it is by this maybe so I'm glad I watched it in that sense and I can't deny that it's

25:16.621 --> 25:18.044
[SPEAKER_02]: a good movie like it is.

25:18.144 --> 25:19.768
[SPEAKER_02]: No, it's a good movie.

25:19.968 --> 25:26.804
[SPEAKER_02]: It's entertaining, but the feeling in which you end with is just awful.

25:26.944 --> 25:28.447
[SPEAKER_02]: It's just awful.

25:28.568 --> 25:32.757
[SPEAKER_02]: And like I am very much happy with I've seen it once.

25:32.737 --> 25:45.313
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if it's the director on BTS did a YouTube short with him and he got to talk about kind of his process with filmmaking and his perspective which was really cool.

25:45.394 --> 25:50.801
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean the cinematography of the movie, the use of angles and color and you know music.

25:50.901 --> 26:00.313
[SPEAKER_00]: Everything is so great like it is truly like a good movie but it does leave you with like a

26:00.293 --> 26:13.223
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's a tough, it's a tough watch, but you know, I don't know if you're up for it Watch it, but we are warning you now, but yeah, this this music video is like completely inspired by it

26:13.827 --> 26:20.334
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, so we'll get more into the specific settings because it's all boy references.

26:20.634 --> 26:24.878
[SPEAKER_02]: But we are going to just talk quickly about the outfits that we get for the members.

26:25.239 --> 26:26.840
[SPEAKER_02]: So there's two outfits that we've seen.

26:26.880 --> 26:30.424
[SPEAKER_02]: The starting outfits are these business suits and ties.

26:31.345 --> 26:40.054
[SPEAKER_02]: They all have like kind of goofy facial hair or some kind of goofy accessory, like sunglasses, fans, suckers.

26:40.034 --> 26:45.483
[SPEAKER_02]: An old boy, the main character, is wearing a suit and has crazy hair and sunglasses on.

26:45.563 --> 26:52.934
[SPEAKER_02]: So it's very fitting that this is the style that they went with with their outfits, at least for the first half of this music video.

26:53.395 --> 27:02.970
[SPEAKER_02]: In the second half of the music video, we get an outfit change where all of the BTS members are quickly changing in the elevator between floors.

27:02.950 --> 27:18.360
[SPEAKER_02]: And they're going up to this pin house and these outfits are much more like early 2000s stylish clothes This would align I think with like the fashion from the time that old boy was film which which like 2003

27:18.340 --> 27:24.431
[SPEAKER_02]: So it's giving a little y2k, but much more like trendy style for that time frame.

27:24.751 --> 27:32.706
[SPEAKER_02]: And so they look a little bit more themselves, I guess you could say, but even then it's still just like, it's a unique style.

27:32.766 --> 27:33.447
[SPEAKER_00]: Definitely.

27:33.427 --> 27:53.902
[SPEAKER_00]: This is the style that is inspiring my concert outfit, not the Y2K 2000 style, but the outfits at the beginning that they're wearing, the suits, in particular, Jimin's with the gray vest and pants and the sunglasses, I saw it and I was like, yeah, I got to do that.

27:54.042 --> 27:55.384
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's perfect.

27:55.364 --> 28:01.674
[SPEAKER_02]: I freaking love that year going is 2.0 style, and I'm going to swim style.

28:01.834 --> 28:02.675
[SPEAKER_02]: It's just cute.

28:02.695 --> 28:03.697
[SPEAKER_00]: It fits.

28:03.717 --> 28:04.037
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

28:04.398 --> 28:11.409
[SPEAKER_00]: So let's go and talk about the storyline that we see throughout the music video and kind of the meaning with it along with the old boy references.

28:11.489 --> 28:15.395
[SPEAKER_00]: So like Bethany said, the beginning of this music video, we see them in these suits.

28:15.575 --> 28:23.447
[SPEAKER_00]: And they're introduced with individual shots of each member where their name and Korean flashes in the bottom corner.

28:23.427 --> 28:30.759
[SPEAKER_00]: This is significant because we have talked a lot about this album almost as their new debut.

28:30.960 --> 28:32.763
[SPEAKER_00]: This is them debuting for the second time.

28:32.803 --> 28:37.010
[SPEAKER_00]: BTS have also kind of discussed this with this being their BTS 2.0.

28:37.852 --> 28:41.638
[SPEAKER_00]: And to in this song have their names and Korean in the bottom corner,

28:41.618 --> 28:48.228
[SPEAKER_00]: Harkins back to their debut music video no more dream where their names were written in English at the bottom.

28:48.709 --> 29:00.347
[SPEAKER_00]: So here they are, you know, 13 years later and they're able to do the same thing by put, you know, it's brand new for them at the same time.

29:00.447 --> 29:02.169
[SPEAKER_00]: It's in Korean instead of an English.

29:02.210 --> 29:07.778
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think that's impactful showing that they're still rooted in their Korean culture and identity.

29:08.062 --> 29:31.470
[SPEAKER_00]: And they're so popular they don't need to do the exactly totally they're able to just you know where they are yeah each member here has a close up shot where they have their moment to be either hilarious or hot or both like all of them really are um with like a little facial expression or you know like a little movement but really like staring down these guys that they're

29:31.450 --> 29:39.417
[SPEAKER_00]: Coming out of the elevator and there's all these guys in this hallway and they all have, you know, different weapons like baseball bats and lead pipes and whatever.

29:39.457 --> 29:48.546
[SPEAKER_00]: So really from the beginning, this is the old boy reference beginning, just talking about specifically this hallway fight scene.

29:48.606 --> 29:57.734
[SPEAKER_00]: So in the movie, the main character is seeking answers on why he was falsely imprisoned in a singular hotel-esque room for 15 years.

29:57.794 --> 29:58.555
[SPEAKER_00]: He was just...

29:58.535 --> 30:24.272
[SPEAKER_00]: kidnapped off the street one day and he was putting this room never got to leave the room was served food you know like through like a hatch in the door and never got a reason of why he was there and in this hallway he's confronting all the men who held him there and he's looking for information so he single-handedly beats up like 20 plus men this scene is so iconic that it's been paid homage to in films TV shows and anime since then and

30:24.252 --> 30:34.866
[SPEAKER_00]: And it's the first time that a one-shot fighting scene was done like this, where it's like a continuous like all the way through from, you know, one side to the other side of the set.

30:35.227 --> 30:37.109
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's what makes it so iconic.

30:37.590 --> 30:49.185
[SPEAKER_00]: In BTS' version, as the video starting, I know the scene I'm almost expecting them to start like doing choreographed fighting with these people, but instead, no, they don't need to physically fight.

30:49.346 --> 30:52.690
[SPEAKER_00]: They are fighting these men off with their killer choreo.

30:52.670 --> 31:01.348
[SPEAKER_00]: And the guys are like scared back in a way on both sides of them like, you know, afraid that BTS is even going to approach them.

31:01.449 --> 31:10.628
[SPEAKER_00]: And to us, this represents BTS fighting their way back into their own space in the music industry upon their return here.

31:10.608 --> 31:15.941
[SPEAKER_02]: I love you saying that they're fighting them off with this choreography because it is so true.

31:15.961 --> 31:19.851
[SPEAKER_02]: They really are and this scene is just so incredibly iconic.

31:19.871 --> 31:23.239
[SPEAKER_02]: I think it is the most iconic scenes from Old Boy.

31:23.981 --> 31:28.532
[SPEAKER_02]: It's very fitting that they use this for the music video here.

31:28.512 --> 31:29.854
[SPEAKER_02]: it's fantastic.

31:30.475 --> 31:33.739
[SPEAKER_02]: So then we get a shot in the elevator.

31:33.960 --> 31:51.585
[SPEAKER_02]: And so an old boy that elevator is in the movie and the main character like rides up in this elevator not only for that fight scene but he also rides up to get to the antagonists where he meets him in this penthouse, the antagonist penthouse.

31:52.286 --> 31:58.114
[SPEAKER_02]: And the

31:58.094 --> 32:13.378
[SPEAKER_02]: It's showing these members doing their outfit change and I mean we get all of them changing and the small elevator quickly from these suits into their 2.0 more trendy clothes.

32:13.458 --> 32:21.351
[SPEAKER_02]: They look incredible and sexy and we get to see a lot of like chaotic sexy BTS quickly changing together.

32:21.331 --> 32:26.898
[SPEAKER_02]: Hello, Jim and his entire back is showing at the very beginning of this scene.

32:26.919 --> 32:31.144
[SPEAKER_02]: It's just like we've never had anything quite like this.

32:31.785 --> 32:36.391
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, also just kind of a BTS music video theme to be an elevator.

32:36.411 --> 32:39.616
[SPEAKER_02]: Like I think we see that in butter, I think we see it in dope.

32:39.636 --> 32:44.122
[SPEAKER_02]: So like here we are again BTS and the elevator, but they're all changing together.

32:44.282 --> 32:48.908
[SPEAKER_00]: So much symbolism there, they're all changing together, you know.

32:48.888 --> 33:04.618
[SPEAKER_00]: Like how BGN says, you can say we change, we feel the same BTIs, okay, okay, but they're changing together as a group, yeah Yes, yes, okay

33:05.510 --> 33:10.442
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, I'm going along to like that was not in our dog.

33:10.462 --> 33:20.667
[SPEAKER_02]: We just love that you just came to that conclusion, but there's a lot of symbolism of them like just going back to the top of the industry and this elevator too, like trying to like

33:20.647 --> 33:22.089
[SPEAKER_02]: take their place again.

33:22.129 --> 33:30.882
[SPEAKER_02]: It's, again, calling back to those lyrics within 2.0 of Hadji Little Funfella came back for what's mine.

33:30.902 --> 33:38.613
[SPEAKER_02]: So they're going up to this penthouse where they are rich on top of the world's successful.

33:38.673 --> 33:41.878
[SPEAKER_02]: So yeah, like it also shows that they're

33:41.858 --> 33:44.561
[SPEAKER_02]: Maybe it like changing quickly in this elevator.

33:44.601 --> 34:06.128
[SPEAKER_00]: It could also be a little symbolic of like rushing To change or like release this new album ASAP like they kind of had to whip it out pretty quickly after coming back from military Yeah, and they were like yeah, definitely rushing you can tell that they're all in a hurry as they're changing clothes So could definitely be symbolic of them like working hard to put this album out in a timely manner, too

34:06.108 --> 34:34.832
[SPEAKER_00]: So now that we're taking the elevator up to the penthouse, let's talk about the penthouse and in the movie the rich antagonist owns the penthouse and this is where the climax scene of the movie takes place where all the mysteries are revealed to the protagonist to the main character In this scene also towards the end of it, we also see a tape recording plane and running out like those old style tape reels Just like side now about this whole setting that BTS are dancing in at this point

34:34.812 --> 34:55.549
[SPEAKER_00]: the attention to detail is crazy to us because all of the furniture, the artwork on the walls, the pictures, the green, long strip pools of water, even in the back that you see at the very end, the destroyed window and how it's broken out, the desk behind it, like it's all exactly the same, exactly the same as the movie.

34:55.569 --> 34:56.010
[SPEAKER_00]: It's

34:55.990 --> 35:20.142
[SPEAKER_00]: It's it's identical that I even question like did they just never take this set up right and they just went to it like it's looks like the E-ritch like the original it's crazy how exactly this scene and the the antagonist had like a bunch of cameras all over the place like old vintage cameras even those are there It is just to me it also yes, it looks like the set frozen in time and was just waiting for them to come back here

35:20.122 --> 35:39.469
[SPEAKER_00]: But BTS is here, they're dancing here and like Bethany said of them being in the penthouse is showing that they're back on top, that they are the ones that throughout all of the struggle and the turmoil and the torment and the torture and the mind games, they're the ones that are going to be and you know finish this thing on top.

35:39.489 --> 35:45.758
[SPEAKER_00]: At the end of the music video, there is a shot of it's like freaking it's crazy, the same exact

35:45.738 --> 35:52.237
[SPEAKER_00]: old style of tape recording, you know, one real rolling into the other real to be played running out.

35:53.380 --> 36:00.861
[SPEAKER_00]: The same exact thing that it does in the movie too and it's symbolizing what it did in the movie that BTS or 10 steps ahead.

36:00.841 --> 36:07.374
[SPEAKER_00]: like whatever you think or know about them or assume is going to be totally wrong just like on this podcast.

36:07.394 --> 36:17.955
[SPEAKER_00]: We've made predictions time and time again over the years and we're always wrong and we're always happy to be wrong because whatever BTS has planned is a thousand times better than we could have.

36:17.935 --> 36:37.378
[SPEAKER_00]: conceptualized but this this tape recording leaves such an impact when you've seen old boy and you know like oh man that's like wow he really was 10 steps ahead of you the whole time and that's BTS here like you won't be able to figure out what they're doing next they're unpredictable in this new 2.0 era.

36:37.358 --> 36:38.300
[SPEAKER_00]: Mm-hmm.

36:39.562 --> 36:40.263
[SPEAKER_00]: Beats, yes, man.

36:40.283 --> 36:41.185
[SPEAKER_00]: It's so impact.

36:41.245 --> 36:41.846
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

36:41.866 --> 36:42.747
[SPEAKER_00]: It's so dramatic.

36:42.887 --> 36:44.270
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, super similar.

36:44.290 --> 36:50.681
[SPEAKER_02]: It wasn't until we were watching it together after I had seen Old Boy and we were debriefing about the music video.

36:50.861 --> 36:51.682
[SPEAKER_02]: The movie.

36:52.223 --> 36:57.112
[SPEAKER_02]: And then we watched two-point-out together and we both saw that real at the end.

36:57.132 --> 36:57.252
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

36:57.793 --> 36:57.933
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

36:57.953 --> 36:59.856
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh my god.

36:59.876 --> 36:59.976
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

37:00.557 --> 37:02.100
[SPEAKER_02]: This is insane.

37:02.080 --> 37:10.271
[SPEAKER_02]: Overall, this music video is BTS reclaiming their spot within the music industry and upgrading to a higher status.

37:10.932 --> 37:17.921
[SPEAKER_02]: While the protagonist in All Boy was gone for like 15 years in present before coming back.

37:18.562 --> 37:25.050
[SPEAKER_02]: We see a lot of parallels with BTS having been on hiatus for over three years and now coming back.

37:25.030 --> 37:42.448
[SPEAKER_02]: and they're coming back for what's theirs that line is especially strong when put in the old boy setting and so they're not just claiming time loss but reclaiming who they are, what they want to do with their music and every aspect on how they want to do it.

37:42.428 --> 37:43.269
[SPEAKER_00]: Iconic.

37:43.569 --> 37:44.270
[SPEAKER_00]: So killer.

37:44.330 --> 37:44.891
[SPEAKER_02]: It's iconic.

37:44.911 --> 37:45.271
[SPEAKER_02]: We love it.

37:45.292 --> 37:46.072
[SPEAKER_02]: We're obsessed.

37:46.273 --> 37:47.955
[SPEAKER_02]: I think of the three music videos.

37:48.215 --> 37:51.619
[SPEAKER_02]: Even I might be a little bit more bias for two point out now.

37:51.659 --> 37:54.543
[SPEAKER_00]: Because I just love the all of the symbolism with it.

37:54.623 --> 38:01.231
[SPEAKER_00]: And if anybody could do like an old boy homage in a music video, I mean, man, they pulled it off so well.

38:01.952 --> 38:04.075
[SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, absolutely loved it.

38:04.215 --> 38:05.196
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.

38:05.176 --> 38:08.380
[SPEAKER_02]: We had to do more than just for favorite moment.

38:08.420 --> 38:10.242
[SPEAKER_00]: How are we gonna make it quick here?

38:10.262 --> 38:13.346
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, we're gonna make it quick here, so we can get into who again after this.

38:13.967 --> 38:22.017
[SPEAKER_02]: One of my ultra favorite moments from this music video is Yungi at the very beginning, controlling the choreo.

38:22.037 --> 38:34.052
[SPEAKER_02]: It is so hot of him, him in the middle, wearing these rimless glasses, looking like true gloss, sugar,

38:34.032 --> 38:44.099
[SPEAKER_02]: Chucky, like all his phones in one, controlling his members, fighting off these bad guys with his like sharp, super-sinked Oreo.

38:44.119 --> 38:47.147
[SPEAKER_02]: It's so incredible and impactful.

38:47.648 --> 38:48.611
[SPEAKER_02]: It's one of the best parts of the music.

38:48.651 --> 38:48.912
[SPEAKER_00]: Love it.

38:48.932 --> 38:50.556
[SPEAKER_00]: And it kicks us off, too.

38:50.536 --> 39:18.154
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, I love everything about the bathroom scene, then being in this grimy dirty as bathroom and like just raging in it, particularly the first time when we see the bathroom It's like junk, front and center choreo into step aside then gin, center gin, leading the choreo with oh my god He has like the super deep red v-neck on where he's leaning over in the choreo You can see all the way down the chair killer.

39:18.394 --> 39:19.075
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean

39:19.055 --> 39:28.524
[SPEAKER_02]: the angle, the high up angle, like looking down at him, like getting even a further deeper shot and do is already like super deep being like, okay.

39:29.064 --> 39:36.711
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, and like the other parts of it where there's, you know, a member just performing to the camera, all the other members in the background are going crazy.

39:36.751 --> 39:39.053
[SPEAKER_00]: They're throwing toilet paper, they're juggling it around.

39:39.433 --> 39:42.856
[SPEAKER_00]: Taehyung is doing pull-ups off of the stall.

39:42.896 --> 39:44.678
[SPEAKER_00]: They're just all like raging together.

39:44.698 --> 39:45.859
[SPEAKER_00]: I love it.

39:45.899 --> 39:46.940
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm obsessed.

39:46.960 --> 39:49.062
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's a great shot.

39:49.042 --> 40:02.559
[SPEAKER_02]: For my other favorite moment, it's just Tae Young, all parts of the very beginning of his super goofy intimidating facial expressions when they're about to charge at these bad guys.

40:02.599 --> 40:11.691
[SPEAKER_02]: I also have to make a shout out to for Jungkook's super silly expressions, recreating that iconic meme that he's done before.

40:11.671 --> 40:19.638
[SPEAKER_02]: It's just so iconic of him to put this meme of him like recreating this meme within a music video.

40:19.678 --> 40:23.342
[SPEAKER_02]: Like this music video will like stand the test of time.

40:23.362 --> 40:27.666
[SPEAKER_02]: Like this will be something that people like go and look for years down the road.

40:27.746 --> 40:32.991
[SPEAKER_02]: Like I feel like other little snippet videos of like run BTS might get like loss of her time.

40:33.051 --> 40:35.493
[SPEAKER_02]: But this is like like the real shit.

40:35.513 --> 40:36.454
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a music video.

40:36.474 --> 40:41.138
[SPEAKER_02]: Like he just recreated this like super goofy meme.

40:41.118 --> 40:42.620
[SPEAKER_02]: Love it, yeah, love it.

40:42.740 --> 40:45.424
[SPEAKER_02]: But truthfully, all of the members at the beginning of the video is fantastic.

40:45.444 --> 40:45.584
[SPEAKER_00]: Mm-hmm.

40:46.445 --> 40:53.855
[SPEAKER_00]: Also, I just have to say while you're talking about Teyang, him throwing his shoulder right into the choreo for the brand new.

40:53.915 --> 40:57.319
[SPEAKER_00]: And then you hear that little guitar, like, mural in the background.

40:57.379 --> 40:59.242
[SPEAKER_00]: It fucking hits every time.

40:59.362 --> 41:01.104
[SPEAKER_00]: It's so crisp, it's so hot.

41:01.124 --> 41:03.447
[SPEAKER_00]: It's just, yeah, it's everything.

41:03.427 --> 41:04.429
[SPEAKER_02]: Mm-hmm.

41:04.449 --> 41:05.410
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I agree.

41:05.430 --> 41:06.352
[SPEAKER_02]: It's so impactful.

41:06.933 --> 41:21.616
[SPEAKER_02]: Shortly after this, too, there's a shot where we get a lot of the mach nays up in front, and you see Taehyung off to the side, and his tongue is pressing into his cheek, and for the OG Army's out there, this is the equivalent of him pretending to chew bubble gum.

41:21.997 --> 41:28.607
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, he went through a whole fake bubble gum chewing phase, and I just feel like this is like giving the same vibe.

41:28.587 --> 41:45.972
[SPEAKER_02]: and he's just up to his usual antics and I love seeing it like this is the Taehyung that we all kind of like fell in love with, you know, I just love seeing his true self in the music video here and just getting to be the him goofy guy that he is.

41:45.952 --> 41:52.260
[SPEAKER_02]: Also, Tey Young, changing in the elevator, he's the most obscene and ridiculous, I think of all of them.

41:52.300 --> 41:56.526
[SPEAKER_02]: He's so hamming it up, he's at the very end when they're all getting out.

41:56.806 --> 42:02.814
[SPEAKER_02]: He's the last member to get out of the elevator, and he's leaning up against the elevator wall.

42:03.175 --> 42:07.841
[SPEAKER_02]: Last minute buckling his bow with his belly showing, it is so suggestive.

42:07.861 --> 42:10.204
[SPEAKER_02]: And then on his way out, he like,

42:10.184 --> 42:14.370
[SPEAKER_02]: looks over at the camera coolie like he knows what he's doing.

42:14.390 --> 42:14.490
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

42:14.510 --> 42:18.977
[SPEAKER_02]: Like he absolutely knows how he's driving us insane.

42:18.997 --> 42:20.719
[SPEAKER_00]: No, and he's fine with us.

42:20.739 --> 42:38.465
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, I think to me this is like the hottest tag in existence like this moment right here especially like the fact that his shoulders are like leaning back and his hips are forward when he's doing this like tiny you're right it is so suggestive and it's just ridiculously hot and he starts on the camera to stop it right now.

42:38.505 --> 42:40.107
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

42:40.087 --> 42:46.494
[SPEAKER_00]: I have to mention as a favorite part the penthouse corio just all of the members lined up.

42:46.534 --> 42:50.558
[SPEAKER_00]: They they even add like slapping the water because they have that feature to it.

42:51.119 --> 42:56.325
[SPEAKER_00]: RM and the front just makes for super cool shot as he's leading the vocals at this point too.

42:56.385 --> 43:03.833
[SPEAKER_00]: And then you know they are sliding the slide slide to side type of thing as they're moving over to the right side of the screen.

43:03.813 --> 43:05.375
[SPEAKER_00]: It's so smooth.

43:05.415 --> 43:12.946
[SPEAKER_00]: It's so satisfying to watch as he's in sync with every member behind him too, even though they can't see each other.

43:12.966 --> 43:18.915
[SPEAKER_00]: And then after this, hello, they show the shadows of them on the background.

43:18.975 --> 43:20.337
[SPEAKER_00]: They're making on the wall.

43:20.777 --> 43:29.550
[SPEAKER_00]: And they use Yungi's shadow to transition back into Yungi, wrapping at us from the bathroom, like fucking cool.

43:29.530 --> 43:30.311
[SPEAKER_00]: So cool.

43:30.351 --> 43:31.193
[SPEAKER_00]: It's super cool.

43:31.553 --> 43:33.296
[SPEAKER_00]: Such a wonderful director.

43:33.316 --> 43:34.838
[SPEAKER_02]: I love RM and the front.

43:35.079 --> 43:36.561
[SPEAKER_02]: That shot truly is.

43:37.082 --> 43:38.824
[SPEAKER_02]: He is leading them all.

43:38.865 --> 43:41.609
[SPEAKER_02]: He's stunning the sunglasses, the brown leather jacket.

43:41.629 --> 43:44.694
[SPEAKER_02]: Like it is such a standout moment with his members back behind them.

43:45.234 --> 43:46.036
[SPEAKER_02]: Super cool.

43:46.056 --> 43:46.156
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

43:46.256 --> 43:46.777
[SPEAKER_02]: Super cool.

43:47.197 --> 43:47.999
[SPEAKER_02]: And that Yungi shot.

43:48.059 --> 43:48.299
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.

43:48.439 --> 43:48.960
[SPEAKER_02]: Absolutely.

43:49.000 --> 43:50.162
[SPEAKER_02]: It's so well done.

43:51.504 --> 43:52.686
[SPEAKER_02]: Speaking of Yungi.

43:53.425 --> 43:57.252
[SPEAKER_02]: I have to say, there's right before we get into J-Hope's first.

43:57.572 --> 44:01.119
[SPEAKER_02]: We see all of the members line up like Mike drop style.

44:01.700 --> 44:06.028
[SPEAKER_02]: And as they're lined up, you just see you, he's like five members back, okay.

44:06.408 --> 44:12.619
[SPEAKER_02]: And he is staring us down, like Augusti, just stealing the fucking show.

44:12.720 --> 44:15.805
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm over here, like am I unki-buy us, like I can't shut up.

44:15.785 --> 44:23.817
[SPEAKER_02]: But he is just like really stand out in that moment and it's crazy because he's not even like the focus I don't know he's right in the center.

44:23.837 --> 44:29.205
[SPEAKER_02]: So maybe that's it, but his glare is like piercing through You can't ignore him.

44:29.225 --> 44:30.427
[SPEAKER_02]: He's he's present.

44:30.487 --> 44:36.176
[SPEAKER_02]: That's for sure and then I'm obsessed with this transition into Jhope's verse.

44:36.356 --> 44:44.408
[SPEAKER_02]: Jhope looks like a greaser like his hair grease back He's about to jump you like from like the outsiders like that is literally where it takes me

44:44.388 --> 44:53.057
[SPEAKER_02]: But there's this choreography piece where Jay Hope pretends to throw a ball and you geek catches it and then throws it again.

44:53.077 --> 45:08.893
[SPEAKER_02]: And once we started talking about this choreography, it took us back to no more dream Jay Hope who literally throws a baseball at us with the BTS logo on it, like their old logo.

45:08.873 --> 45:14.128
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know if that was an intentional callback to no more dream, but I'm going to say it what?

45:14.148 --> 45:17.076
[SPEAKER_00]: This is like the second no more dream reference and 2.0.

45:17.297 --> 45:21.107
[SPEAKER_00]: I feel like again, reaffirming like this is our new debut here.

45:21.669 --> 45:23.895
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a BTS, yeah.

45:23.875 --> 45:28.060
[SPEAKER_00]: I just have to say a final shout out for the choreo at the end.

45:28.160 --> 45:35.309
[SPEAKER_00]: We get like Jungkook into Taehyung into Jimin just in the final scene and I love that combo.

45:35.349 --> 45:38.393
[SPEAKER_00]: They all own it and Jimin's choreo at the very end.

45:38.413 --> 45:44.641
[SPEAKER_00]: He's like flexing a little bit and like moving forward is just like very intense and impactful.

45:44.661 --> 45:50.608
[SPEAKER_00]: It's just like perfect way for me personally to end this choreo and end the song like it's just iconic.

45:50.588 --> 45:52.070
[SPEAKER_02]: It's super badass.

45:52.090 --> 45:52.490
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

45:53.111 --> 45:58.316
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, he's like he has like the final say at the end and it's so impactful.

45:58.817 --> 46:09.368
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, so two point out there's a lot there and I mean we were really astonished by the symbolism that we saw behind it just through the knowledge of old boys.

46:09.408 --> 46:13.612
[SPEAKER_00]: So really appreciate a great artistry from BTS for that video.

46:13.632 --> 46:16.275
[SPEAKER_02]: Absolutely.

46:16.255 --> 46:25.000
[SPEAKER_02]: So let's go ahead and get into Hooligan, so for the style and the setting for this music video, these...

46:25.267 --> 46:34.519
[SPEAKER_02]: Guys, okay, the makeup that is done is so distinct for who, again, all of the members are wearing pretty heavy eye makeup.

46:34.979 --> 46:38.804
[SPEAKER_02]: It is so stand out and distinct for this music video.

46:39.145 --> 46:47.055
[SPEAKER_02]: This is like red and smudgy, smoky under eye that they have going on and it is extremely intimidating.

46:47.035 --> 46:54.564
[SPEAKER_02]: Slightly scary, and it makes them look a bit deranged in the sense that they haven't slept for days.

46:54.985 --> 47:03.335
[SPEAKER_02]: It's giving Hulligan, and I think it's a solid and very intentional makeup choice.

47:03.576 --> 47:04.757
[SPEAKER_02]: And I love it.

47:04.817 --> 47:12.326
[SPEAKER_02]: I see a lot of armies talking about how the heavy eyeliner takes them back to no more dream, and we are bulletproof.

47:12.407 --> 47:16.772
[SPEAKER_02]: We're really like throwing it back with this style and the eyeliner.

47:16.752 --> 47:21.301
[SPEAKER_02]: And then they're all in these black leather outfits with lots of chains.

47:21.982 --> 47:24.006
[SPEAKER_02]: Kayla, you actually had told me about this.

47:24.086 --> 47:29.858
[SPEAKER_02]: How Jay hopes outfit is modeled after Ryuk's, is it Ryuk?

47:29.878 --> 47:32.162
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, Ryuk's outfit in Death Note.

47:32.142 --> 47:36.390
[SPEAKER_02]: Which it's just a really cool piece of information.

47:36.971 --> 47:47.091
[SPEAKER_02]: I've seen death now I've actually like one of the few enemies that I've watched and if you see a picture of Ryuk's outfit and you see Jay hopes outfit, it's like very identified.

47:47.111 --> 47:48.593
[SPEAKER_00]: It's like so But I saw others coming out.

47:48.614 --> 47:55.146
[SPEAKER_00]: It's cool because I feel like it's really it's on par with the energy that they want to deliver in this music video

47:55.126 --> 47:56.608
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I agree.

47:56.628 --> 48:08.343
[SPEAKER_02]: And then we have to just point out like obviously they're all wearing like chains and black leather, but there's been a lot of discourse online about jins locked up crotch.

48:08.363 --> 48:16.814
[SPEAKER_02]: And how he also has this like Shaisei too that he starts the music video with and we got to see that at the start of the comeback concert.

48:16.874 --> 48:20.138
[SPEAKER_02]: But yeah, if you look at his chains in particular like

48:20.118 --> 48:29.942
[SPEAKER_02]: They're locking him up like he is like cannot be accessed, but it just makes us look even more like

48:31.053 --> 48:41.206
[SPEAKER_00]: So just thinking about like the storyline of this, we personally, like it's hard for us to decide for a specific storyline.

48:41.226 --> 48:45.451
[SPEAKER_00]: We're not sure that it's really supposed to convey a story.

48:45.491 --> 48:51.559
[SPEAKER_00]: It feels more symbolic of a lot of visuals that we're seeing of what it represents.

48:51.539 --> 49:14.307
[SPEAKER_00]: It feels very BTS, it feels really reminiscent of so many BTS eras to us like as we watched through these scenes, we are reminded of not today of wings, even Mike Drop, RM's do you, the fire music video, Yungi Shadow, Bethany mentioned my queen film out in one of the parts.

49:14.287 --> 49:26.866
[SPEAKER_00]: Idol persona on all of these music videos all of these eras for BTS for us comes up in the visuals of this video And we really love this because we're in 2.0.

49:26.906 --> 49:34.438
[SPEAKER_00]: They're declaring like, hey, like we're this is BTS 2.0 here Who will again has from the beginning of it coming out?

49:34.458 --> 49:42.049
[SPEAKER_00]: We've like, oh my god, this feels like classic BTS Why does this feel like it could fit on dark and wild or too cool for school or boy, you know

49:42.029 --> 49:45.275
[SPEAKER_00]: school of affair because it really is like that routier BTS.

49:46.557 --> 49:51.507
[SPEAKER_00]: So to see so many of their eras represented to us here is really cool.

49:51.847 --> 50:02.127
[SPEAKER_02]: So we're going to be so edgy so I think that's why it takes you back to that time because they really got away with that with the love yourself era and map of the soul.

50:02.187 --> 50:04.711
[SPEAKER_02]: It wasn't really so much about that.

50:05.072 --> 50:05.573
[SPEAKER_02]: And

50:05.553 --> 50:11.224
[SPEAKER_02]: It just really seems like they're roots, but upgraded, that's absolutely what it is.

50:11.284 --> 50:14.029
[SPEAKER_02]: And I think that's everything that they wanted with Auditau.

50:14.049 --> 50:14.470
[SPEAKER_02]: Totally.

50:14.510 --> 50:23.106
[SPEAKER_02]: And yeah, these outfits are incredible, like Yungi's hair styling is so interesting with his hair flipping out to the side.

50:23.086 --> 50:25.770
[SPEAKER_02]: Tey Young's like super straight hair.

50:25.810 --> 50:27.553
[SPEAKER_02]: I've never seen his hair so straight.

50:27.633 --> 50:28.314
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm obsessed.

50:28.334 --> 50:29.977
[SPEAKER_02]: He's like anime boyfriend.

50:30.177 --> 50:30.698
[SPEAKER_00]: Totally.

50:30.978 --> 50:34.483
[SPEAKER_00]: Rm with the with like the orange frosted tips.

50:34.644 --> 50:37.388
[SPEAKER_00]: It's super striking, but it works so well on him.

50:37.428 --> 50:41.154
[SPEAKER_00]: Jim and has like his longer hair that he's wrapping this era.

50:41.234 --> 50:46.562
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm obsessed, but it's just Tussled and styled gin kind of has the tussled look going on too.

50:46.542 --> 50:58.902
[SPEAKER_00]: And Jay Hope's hair really stood out to me immediately, but now after knowing his look was inspired by Riyoke, it makes sense that it's kind of like slick back, spiky, you know, going on, because that's very similar to Riyoke's hair.

50:58.962 --> 51:07.195
[SPEAKER_00]: But I don't see like a real like story conveying, but I feel like this is a very coreography video, like very coreography.

51:07.215 --> 51:10.380
[SPEAKER_00]: I guess you have to be able to show off.

51:10.921 --> 51:14.406
[SPEAKER_02]: Big shots, yeah, performance video.

51:14.386 --> 51:23.179
[SPEAKER_02]: So we're just going to go through like some of the shots that we see that like I really stand out like at the very beginning Jay Hope standing in this like a concrete like open area.

51:23.199 --> 51:27.486
[SPEAKER_02]: It looks like it could be like an old warehouse.

51:27.546 --> 51:28.647
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, warehouse.

51:28.707 --> 51:31.692
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, and all of these backup dancers beside him.

51:31.792 --> 51:33.454
[SPEAKER_02]: It is a hundred percent not today.

51:33.515 --> 51:36.179
[SPEAKER_02]: Like it is literally taken from not today.

51:36.199 --> 51:37.661
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it is exact shot that we get.

51:37.701 --> 51:40.545
[SPEAKER_02]: And then after this we get a really

51:40.525 --> 51:47.199
[SPEAKER_02]: super dynamic shot with Jungkook and RM, but like it really starts with Jungkook coming in.

51:47.961 --> 51:57.201
[SPEAKER_02]: And in this room, it looks like people are kind of in this hedonistic state of over-indulging and part of things.

51:57.181 --> 52:10.754
[SPEAKER_02]: party drinks, fancy food, candles, that ambiance is really giving wings and blood sweat and tears, like a lot of our music in there with this particular scene.

52:10.774 --> 52:22.986
[SPEAKER_00]: Definitely immediately taken there for short, and then we're brought right back into like the Jay Hope takes over the choreography in that too, and like everybody's in

52:22.966 --> 52:49.092
[SPEAKER_00]: like sped up motion around him, which makes for a really cool effect of bringing in more feeling of chaos, kind of going on, and he's controlling it all, which I think is what BTS want to do with this era, and it switches into the chorus and now they're outside, and all BTS are kind of lined up in a triangle formation, and this is one that's on that massive red stage, which to me again is giving not today.

52:49.072 --> 53:06.097
[SPEAKER_00]: like not today were they're dancing in that big curry with the big super nice platform like distinct background like old looking rundown warehouse background with like this really nice surreal platform that they're performing on.

53:06.298 --> 53:16.092
[SPEAKER_02]: I just that concrete wall though to switch to the on manifesto and also takes me to the on music video as well.

53:16.072 --> 53:35.282
[SPEAKER_02]: Just this shot too is so dramatic and like this really wide shot that they have of everyone in it and just looking at the colors with the kind of gray white concrete building, BTS and Black and then the red of the backup dancers in the stage is just like Auditong to a T album.

53:35.302 --> 53:35.983
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

53:36.003 --> 53:38.687
[SPEAKER_02]: But is literally the colors of the era.

53:39.950 --> 53:58.836
[SPEAKER_02]: Mm-hmm, and then we get this really cool shot with Jay Hope and Tay Young, and they're in this open red like flood-lighted room with all of this furniture and pieces that are floating and like flying past them in slow motion in the air

53:58.816 --> 54:05.822
[SPEAKER_02]: And this slow motion and the red flooded light took us immediately to mic drop.

54:05.882 --> 54:09.045
[SPEAKER_02]: We have a shot where like Yungi, Jim and John Go.

54:09.065 --> 54:15.031
[SPEAKER_02]: I think we're in that shot in mic drop where everything is kind of in slow motion in the air behind Yungi.

54:15.051 --> 54:18.354
[SPEAKER_02]: And that's exactly what's being played here.

54:18.434 --> 54:19.955
[SPEAKER_02]: It's like a direct parallel.

54:19.975 --> 54:22.778
[SPEAKER_02]: Also have to give a shot out to Taehyung in this red lit room.

54:22.798 --> 54:26.101
[SPEAKER_02]: Kill the super straight hair, glaring through his bangs.

54:26.181 --> 54:28.823
[SPEAKER_02]: I could even stretch it as far as to say

54:28.803 --> 54:47.790
[SPEAKER_00]: a little bit with how he's like centrally look at us yes and you know that's the only other time that Taehyung had super straight hair for music video is the singularity music video right there like put him in a bomber jacket and make him do a little choreography and we're there i mean he practically is just a bomber jacket with the sleeves cut

54:47.770 --> 54:54.016
[SPEAKER_00]: I also love in a shot that again, just like they did with the Swim Music video, the practical effects.

54:54.116 --> 54:55.817
[SPEAKER_00]: They're not using CGI for this.

54:55.877 --> 54:56.778
[SPEAKER_00]: I could guarantee.

54:57.138 --> 55:05.026
[SPEAKER_00]: We haven't seen it behind yet, but just like they did for Mike Drop, just like they did for, you know, Jay Hope's arson music video.

55:05.126 --> 55:06.607
[SPEAKER_00]: None of that is CGI.

55:06.727 --> 55:08.148
[SPEAKER_00]: It's all practical effects.

55:08.168 --> 55:16.476
[SPEAKER_00]: Like these are actual pieces of furniture on wires floating around with smoke filling the room to get the shot and it makes it so good.

55:16.516 --> 55:17.777
[SPEAKER_00]: It looks incredible.

55:17.757 --> 55:19.780
[SPEAKER_00]: have to talk about you.

55:19.940 --> 55:21.663
[SPEAKER_02]: I feel like you have to commend them for that.

55:21.963 --> 55:22.304
[SPEAKER_00]: Seriously.

55:22.564 --> 55:25.068
[SPEAKER_00]: Like it's a lot of extra work to be able to do that.

55:25.088 --> 55:33.841
[SPEAKER_00]: It'd be so much easier to do CGI, but it brings such a layer of realism to their film, you know, that they're making here.

55:33.901 --> 55:35.844
[SPEAKER_00]: Yungi here and his.

55:35.964 --> 55:37.386
[SPEAKER_00]: I love his verse.

55:37.366 --> 55:41.091
[SPEAKER_00]: He literally is standing in one place.

55:41.371 --> 55:45.517
[SPEAKER_00]: I think that is so menu give him to just not move.

55:45.537 --> 55:46.959
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, he's like, I don't even need to dance.

55:47.059 --> 55:48.061
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't even need to move.

55:48.081 --> 55:54.610
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't even need to do my crouch walk at you while I'm delivering these lines like you're going to be impacted either way.

55:54.670 --> 55:57.113
[SPEAKER_00]: And the backup dancers are kind of like,

55:57.093 --> 55:58.595
[SPEAKER_00]: creeping into him.

55:58.615 --> 56:02.160
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, but they're leaning away as if they're intimidated by him.

56:02.200 --> 56:04.363
[SPEAKER_00]: They don't really want to get too close to them.

56:04.383 --> 56:06.866
[SPEAKER_00]: They're all kind of like holding each other back.

56:06.926 --> 56:08.368
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, oh, what's he going to do?

56:09.069 --> 56:16.358
[SPEAKER_00]: And it's beautiful because as they were on site, it was snowing, just as he was recording his scene.

56:16.438 --> 56:18.721
[SPEAKER_00]: So there's snow falling in the background.

56:18.782 --> 56:21.525
[SPEAKER_00]: There's, you know, greenery all around him too.

56:21.545 --> 56:25.210
[SPEAKER_00]: Like these tall grasses that the wind is whipping through in the

56:25.190 --> 56:41.342
[SPEAKER_00]: Ripple's through the grass gives such a haunting feeling of like someone sneaking up on you, and this is when he's delivering the line, like Elcocoi, like the the buggy man, like coming up to you, and so it has that dual effect.

56:41.322 --> 57:00.270
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, also stand out here that reminds us of the fire music video is there's one soul backup dancer that stands in faces Yungi as he's delivering his final lines and it reminds us of the beginning of fire where he's standing in front of that guy who's like hooded kind of staring him down.

57:00.391 --> 57:04.056
[SPEAKER_00]: So another direct pair of another call back to it.

57:04.829 --> 57:25.993
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, the part just to while we're here because this is our next screenshot that reminds us of RM's Do You is all of the black and white shots of the BTS members that we get spliced in throughout the video They do this in a really great way like when you hear the the knives slashing often times It'll cut back and forth between these black and white scenes in the main scenes

57:25.973 --> 57:31.082
[SPEAKER_00]: But these are like for the members to all look super fucking hot, super incredible.

57:31.443 --> 57:39.839
[SPEAKER_00]: And I mean, in RM's due music video, he has like these flashes of like black and white to, you know, contrast, to contrast with the main scene.

57:39.979 --> 57:41.322
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's another.

57:41.602 --> 57:41.943
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

57:41.963 --> 57:42.143
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

57:42.123 --> 57:50.185
[SPEAKER_02]: I love that you made that connection because that really is a little bit of a deep cut, but it's exactly that whenever you want to be saying that.

57:50.205 --> 57:50.927
[SPEAKER_00]: This is the same part.

57:51.007 --> 57:51.388
[SPEAKER_00]: Totally.

57:52.171 --> 57:52.532
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

57:52.692 --> 57:57.786
[SPEAKER_02]: And then we just have to talk about this scene where we've got Jim and John Gogh.

57:57.766 --> 58:01.832
[SPEAKER_02]: All of these backup dancers are like flying past them.

58:01.972 --> 58:04.315
[SPEAKER_02]: Like items are flying past them too.

58:04.475 --> 58:07.820
[SPEAKER_02]: We were kind of joking about some of the like stranger things.

58:07.980 --> 58:10.864
[SPEAKER_02]: Parallel was like, and that he'd anistic room.

58:10.904 --> 58:12.707
[SPEAKER_02]: It looks like the upside.

58:12.787 --> 58:16.392
[SPEAKER_02]: It looks like a portal to the upside down is right there.

58:16.692 --> 58:23.942
[SPEAKER_02]: And then, yeah, when like in stranger things, when things are getting sucked into the upside down, like this is exactly what it looks like.

58:23.922 --> 58:31.534
[SPEAKER_02]: But there are so many glamour shots between Jungkook, Jen, and Jimin in this room.

58:31.754 --> 58:39.306
[SPEAKER_02]: And one of our favorite parts is this really cool transition from Jungkook, and you see a person fly by in front of them.

58:39.446 --> 58:42.491
[SPEAKER_02]: And then once they leave the screen, it's replaced with Jen.

58:42.511 --> 58:43.573
[SPEAKER_02]: I can't know.

58:43.593 --> 58:44.274
[SPEAKER_02]: So cool.

58:44.474 --> 58:46.377
[SPEAKER_02]: And as I can, it's incredible.

58:46.438 --> 58:48.040
[SPEAKER_02]: Jimin has never looked.

58:48.020 --> 58:58.233
[SPEAKER_02]: better killing touch when his hair, but he just looks, the finances ever loved and we keep talking about how he's never looked better and that says a lot because he's always looked fine.

59:00.456 --> 59:09.268
[SPEAKER_02]: But after this scene, we get the iconic and credible, always needed, Yungi kicking us on the face.

59:09.248 --> 59:13.114
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, like boot to the fake right at a call.

59:13.294 --> 59:14.376
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, incredible.

59:14.396 --> 59:18.843
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean talk about idle Like this is the idle moment.

59:19.083 --> 59:21.687
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, but I don't know the video where yungi kicks.

59:21.747 --> 59:31.302
[SPEAKER_00]: I feel like that immediately became iconic That's when we were always forever being like yungi kick us, you know Carp stop us and here he is doing it right at the camera.

59:31.322 --> 59:33.045
[SPEAKER_00]: It's it's so good

59:33.025 --> 59:58.847
[SPEAKER_00]: And after this we see RM, this is like his like verse here at the end of the song and he's standing at a microphone stand that has hundreds of cables coming out of it as if what he's saying is being broadcasted around the world not only that but everybody's listening, you know, it really is shocking as the camera pans out how many

59:58.827 --> 01:00:21.258
[SPEAKER_00]: Cables are running out and coiled about as he's kind of like the back-up dancers are standing behind him Almost information where like a choir would be kind of like people singing his praises or singing their praises, but he's standing up there alone You know as the solid Representation of BTS bringing their message to the world it.

01:00:21.799 --> 01:00:28.648
[SPEAKER_00]: It's reminds me of the persona music video It reminds me of BTS of RM himself speaking at the UN

01:00:28.628 --> 01:00:41.758
[SPEAKER_00]: and it's just really impactful because here he's wrapping like you're gonna hear this one playing around the clock basically worldwide everywhere people are going to be listening to this song so super impactful shot here.

01:00:41.778 --> 01:00:45.085
[SPEAKER_00]: It is yeah all those cables.

01:00:46.853 --> 01:00:48.936
[SPEAKER_02]: Kayla, do you want to talk about shirtless gentlemen?

01:00:48.956 --> 01:01:00.953
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I just we haven't mentioned it yet, but Jimin's outfit here, it is sure is only buttoned at the top and so you can just, there's so many shots we can just see like his full abs out and I die.

01:01:01.233 --> 01:01:05.499
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm, I'm wrecked and destroyed and ruined every time after RM's verse.

01:01:05.799 --> 01:01:13.129
[SPEAKER_00]: He kind of like, they're back on the red stage and he kind of turns and walks away and then Jimin comes out from the side and you see like his stomach flashes.

01:01:13.149 --> 01:01:13.570
[SPEAKER_00]: He's,

01:01:13.550 --> 01:01:16.916
[SPEAKER_00]: giving his verse and his face is also looking just gorgeous.

01:01:17.397 --> 01:01:20.363
[SPEAKER_00]: And then Yungi comes in with his final lines.

01:01:20.383 --> 01:01:23.048
[SPEAKER_00]: And so it's like nom june into jimin.

01:01:23.088 --> 01:01:23.930
[SPEAKER_00]: It's mini money.

01:01:23.990 --> 01:01:26.355
[SPEAKER_00]: And then into jimin in yungi.

01:01:26.395 --> 01:01:31.204
[SPEAKER_00]: It's you and minutes like all of my shit's just here to record destroying me.

01:01:31.184 --> 01:01:39.674
[SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, I can't get over and then we get Jen right after this like Jungian Jim and part This is Jen.

01:01:40.054 --> 01:01:40.675
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my god.

01:01:40.755 --> 01:01:41.816
[SPEAKER_00]: He's walking forward.

01:01:41.856 --> 01:01:43.939
[SPEAKER_00]: I love the part where he puts his arms out.

01:01:43.999 --> 01:01:53.129
[SPEAKER_00]: He puts his hands out as if like You want this you know like Yeah, you want this while he's walked up He's walked up all the chains around his belt.

01:02:03.041 --> 01:02:12.894
[SPEAKER_02]: We also get Tae Young at the end, too, in color, like instead of just the red-footed room, so you're going to really good shot of him here with that straight hair, looking so, so sexy.

01:02:13.435 --> 01:02:23.888
[SPEAKER_02]: And the music video ends with all of them on a stage, like it kind of, it pans out even further, so then you can see the catwalk above them.

01:02:23.868 --> 01:02:26.512
[SPEAKER_02]: that you would see at like a stadium concert.

01:02:26.532 --> 01:02:33.542
[SPEAKER_02]: And I just feel like it's symbolic of just the concert, the stadium tour that they're about to embark on.

01:02:33.642 --> 01:02:37.327
[SPEAKER_00]: Because this video came out right before their tour started.

01:02:37.347 --> 01:02:45.619
[SPEAKER_00]: And as of doing this video, they've, or this podcast, they've finished their tour dates in in Seoul and at Goiang.

01:02:45.659 --> 01:02:46.180
[SPEAKER_00]: So,

01:02:46.160 --> 01:02:57.216
