idea for this comes from Laina Sunflower's video EVERYTHING in the TXT UNIVERSE EXPLAINED || PART 1 (CHARACTERS) ! i haven't actually watched it yet though so if anything is similar it really is pure coincidence ^^' BEOMGYU General: Morse Code - Hope Flower - Red Poppy Animal - Moth / Butterfly Shape - Diamond Affected Area - Shoulders (spines/tentacles) ANALYSIS: "Hope." Beomgyu shows a lot of hope during CROWN era. Unfortunately, as the photocards show us, by CYSM era, all of that hope has vanished. "Red Poppy." These flowers are often associated with peace, sleep, and...death. They're also associated with rememberance. I'm...not sure what to do with this but it lowkey freaks me out a little, considering that scene from 'Can't You See Me?' MV. "Moth / Butterfly." It's hard for me to tell if the insect in his intro film is a white moth or a pale butterfly. Moths symbolize vulnerability, death, and transformation. Butterflies symbolize endurance, hope, and life--which fits right into his Morse code! "Diamond." Diamonds stand for life, sun, and purity...all still facets of the word hope. It would be interesting to see if his Morse code has changed after whatever happened on Magic Island. "Shoulder/Spines." The way I've always interpreted this is he has a lot on his shoulders. *rim shot* Okay, but seriously. Also, in addition, I just Googled "shoulder symbolism" and the first result told me that "Shoulders represent what comes from the past and is to be projected in the future...Shoulder-related problems denote undervaluation because the person has little flexibility with in his mental pattern." Magic Island Teasers: "What should happen? Let's just do it." #hope #rewind #noonecanbetrusted ANALYSIS: "Hope" is Beomgyu's Morse code. "Rewind." This is from the lyrics of 'Run Away.' "When this night is about to be over, let's turn back time, rewind." "No one can be trusted." Hmm. But on his photocard from their second album, he said "Nothing will lighten my shoulders more than the fact that we're together." On the photocard from Star, he said "We shouldn't give up hope, because we definitely have a chance to make a change." But then in Eternity, he suddenly changes his tone: "When the moment of crucial decision comes, everyone is on their own." So what has suddenly and firmly changed his mind?! TDC - Eternity Concept Photos Starboard: Choi Beomgyu - 8 posts, 4 following (SB, YJ, TH, HK), 4 followers (SB, YJ, TH, HK) Keyword: ETERNITY Tags: Relief, serenity ANALYSIS: "Relief." I'm not really sure why this is one of his words. It doesn't seem to fit in with the rest of his thoughts. But again, I don't think Starboard is what the boys have, but rather what they wish for. "Serenity." Taehyun is the one tagged, not Beomgyu. (See Taehyun) TDC - Eternity Concept Photos Port: Choi Beomgyu - 8 posts, 4 following (SB, YJ, TH, HK), 4 followers (SB, YJ, TH, HK) Keyword: UNFAIR Date: May 18th Movie: The Catcher in the Rye Hashtags: #nothingtohide #isitmyfault? 1. BG: "Who was the one that saw me that day?" TH: "I wish I was wrong." 2. BG: "It was all together then, right?" 3. BG: "It's not the same world I knew then..." ANALYSIS: "Unfair." Unfair. It's not fair. What's not fair? What is Beomgyu referring to here? "May 18th." The day the album dropped. Smooth, Big Hit. ;) "The Catcher in the Rye." First of all, this is actually a book, not a movie. I should've said "Media" rather than "Movie" but well I've come too far to back down now. Basically, it's a coming-of-age story about a teenage boy trying to find his way through the narrow path between adolescence and adulthood. (I wouldn't recommend this book to younger readers [unless you have to read it for school]...it's not very appropriate for young ages. >.<) The general theme of the book fits in with Beomgyu's character pretty well, as we can see happening yet again with 'Drama' MV (yet to be released). I don't know if that will be part of the +U or not (probably not), but again, it just fits in with his character. "Nothing to hide." Beomgyu feels as though he is being transparent with the boys, and I think he's angry that they aren't reciprocating--Yeonjun and Soobin in particular are obviously holding things back from the group, and Beomgyu doesn't like it. "Is it my fault?" I wonder what he's talking about? I think it most likely has to do with whatever happened on Magic Island. I'm sure he had a hand in it, whatever it was. For example, in 'Magic Island' MV, Beomgyu is the one that throws the sparkler into the bush and starts the fire on the island. "Who was the one that saw me that day?" "I wish I was wrong." After the release of 'Eternally,' I'm wondering if Beomgyu is referring to the boys going to the practice room or whatever happened on Magic Island. Before, I thought he would be talking about the island and maybe even about him starting the fire, but now... Also, it seems obvious that Taehyun is the one that saw him, but maybe he wasn't. Maybe they're talking about two different times. "It was all together then, right?" Beomgyu seems desperate for an answer. It's not my fault. He doesn't want to be the sole reason for any one thing. "It's not the same world I knew then..." Perhaps referencing the end of the world seen in 'Eternally?' TAEHYUN General:
Morse Code - Clue Flower - White Daffodil (I think) Animal - Black-Headed Caique Shape - Circle Affected Area - Eye (glows red/black) ANALYSIS: "Clue." Since the beginning, Taehyun has always been shown looking for clues or trying to figure out mysteries. "White Daffodil." Daffodils represent rebirth and new beginnings, "Black-Headed Caique." The word "caique" symbolizes optimism, recognition, and commitment. I'm not sure what the animal itself means--it seems very specific. "Circle." Circles often symbolize cycles--wholeness, timelessness. Circles are considered to be an extremely powerful and omnipotent shape. "Eye." Eyes are commonly associated with intelligence, the soul, truth, and morality. Magic Island Teasers: "There will be a way out." #clue #letsthinkcarefully #theworldisbroken ANALYSIS: "Clue" is Taehyun's Morse code. "Let's think carefully." Taehyun's character is and has always been careful. He thinks everything through thoroughly, he's usually the voice of reason, he often calls out Beomgyu and Yeonjun on their pranks... "The world is broken." 'Eternally' MV. Did he see it before? As in, before the rest of them saw it? TDC - Eternity Concept Photos Starboard: Kang Taehyun - 8 posts, 4 following (SB, YJ, BG, HK), 4 followers (SB, YJ, BG, HK) Keyword: ETERNITY Tags: Breathe, serenity ANALYSIS: "Breathe." Whatever happened on Magic Island, I think Taehyun either saw or remembers in a way the others don't/did not. I think he's been nervous about it ever since, so his wish would be to rest easy again, or, to breathe. "Serenity." Similar to the above, I think Taehyun just wants everything to go back to normal. He wants it to be peaceful again. TDC - Eternity Concept Photos Port: Kang Taehyun - 8 posts, 4 following (SB, YJ, BG, HK), 4 followers (SB, YJ, BG, HK) Keyword: SUSPICIOUS Date: May 18th Movie: Phillip Marlowe Hashtags: #everybodylies #iwanttoknowthetruth 1. TH: "I want to go back." YJ: "Let's find a way together." 2. TH: "I didn't know hyung would do that." 3. TH: "Why is that? / Why would you do that?" ANALYSIS: "Suspicious." Taehyun is INCREDIBLY suspicious, particularly of the hyung line. (Hyuka seems so confused that I don't think he's a threat to Taehyun. >.<) You can see it out in full force in 'Can't You See Me?' MV, and even a little bit in 'Run Away.' "May 18th." The day the album dropped. Smooth, Big Hit. ;) "Phillip Marlowe." Phillip Marlowe is a detective from a series of mystery novels published primarily in the 1930's. Once again, Taehyun is being linked back to detectives, mysteries, clues if you will. "Everybody lies." Soobin and Yeonjun are proving themselves untrustworthy. Beomgyu is a complicated figure, where it's hard to know if he's being honest or not. Hyuka doesn't seem to know anything. Taehyun is frustrated with the lies. He wants to know the truth. ("I want to know the truth.") "I want to go back." "Let's find a way together." I want to go back. Go back to where? When times were easier? When things were happier? And why is Yeonjun the one suggesting they do it together? He seems to be one of the ones pulling away from the group rather than trying to bring it together so this feels a little out of character. "I didn't know hyung would do that." "Why is that? / Why would you do that?" I have no idea who he could be talking about, but if I had to take a wild stab I would say Soobin, Yeonjun, or Beomgyu. Side Note: The concept photo teaser for TDC: Eternity was the half-burnt doll from 'Run Away.' In the corner was a code that translated to CLUE. Maybe CLUE wasn't to tell us "hey, this is a clue!" but rather was to tell us who was in possession of the doll. Who has the doll in the concept photos? Who's Morse code word is CLUE? Taehyun.
