BTS HYYH THEORY AND FAKE LOVE/MAGIC SHOP THEORY

MADE BY @TAE.CO.UK AND @SXMPLY.SUNA ON TIKTOK

INTRODUCTION

The following theories are not in chronological order, but in a way in which the story can be understood. This is a summary of BTS theories from the hyyh and fake love era. BTS uses a lot of theories within their music videos and it can be hard to understand them. This is a summary of the clips from BTS and an analysis of what they represent. PLEASE REMEMBER: ALL OF THESE CHARACTERS ARE MADE UP AND ARE NOT REAL. THEY ARE JUST PLAYED BY EACH MEMBER.

HYYH THEORY

V paints graffiti on the wall with RM and kills his abusive father for potentially killing his sister. Jungkook gets into a fight with guys on the street and then gets hit by a car. Suga sets his hotel room on fire. RM is insulted by a customer at the gas station that he works at. Jimin tries to drown himself in his bathtub because his character was struggling with a lot of mental health issues. Jin isn’t involved yet, but he is involved with the smeraldo flower which is a blue flower used in the mvs, and it represents the members. V takes a big jump off of scaffolding as everyone cheers him with Jin recording, but from that V d!es from it because he drowned (scenes of him struggling underwater). Jimin and J-Hope end up in a hospital for mental health issues. RM feels guilty for letting V commit su!c!de. Suga burns himself because he couldn’t save Jungkook. Jin takes pictures of everything including the butterfly. In the run mv there is a card with a butterfly on it (a reference to butterfly song). The song butterfly is about su!c!de; focused around Taehyung’s character. Jin goes missing because he is trapped at the moment that they go towards V and he stands between two doors and stares at the painting. The painting is from blood sweat tears and it represents rebelling angels away from heaven to hell. He is closer to the shadowed door which represents hell, so more dark times will be coming. To fit in with the theme of falling, Icarus is referenced in the music video. Because V is de!d, in the mv we see him jumping down from a painting landing where Icarus would have been so there we know he is the one linked with Icarus. When Jungkook swings back in the blood sweat tears mv we know he is dead and that he is almost falling off. V covers Jin’s eyes suggesting evil is blinding him. V has scars on his back from the wings that were there before he fell, and he sits in a position as he looks behind him in the mv. Jin kisses the statue that was in the same position as V, he d!ed and came back as a demon basically. In the song Euphoria we get an understanding that Jungkook and Suga are traveling to utopia, this is because in the hyyh storyline. Jungkook and Suga are lovers (confirmed in bighit webtoon). In V’s stigma mv, through the lyrics, we can see that he is one with family issues (Tae never explained). The song ‘wings’ talks about V’s wings - ‘spread spread spread my wings, if my wings could fly.' All of these theories so far were concluded with the song starting off as save me, but becoming I’m fine.

FAKE LOVE THEORY

In the beginning, there is an explosion and Jin is trying to protect his flower (the members). We can see Jungkook watching over all of the members from utopia and he is waiting for Suga. Jimin previously tried to drown himself, this explains the flood around him. Suga previously tried to burn himself, this explains the fire around him. RM stares into his reflection and rethinks his life. J-Hope was abandoned as a child by his mother who tried to play hide and seek with him and gave him a snickers bar at a carnival but instead of hiding, she left. V doesn’t have a theory because he is already the demon. Jin fails to save the flower from the explosion which means all of the members will die. Jungkook blows away the petals and we can see the flood and fire getting bigger. The magic shop is where you exchange negative memories with positive ones so the members all visit there. Every member makes a trade with an item except for Jungkook, who was forced inside his inner character. He finds the key that unlocks the magic shop. At the beginning of the fake love mv we do not see Jungkook but his darker self which is why shadows close over him. Jungkook can now see inside of rooms so he tries to escape. He runs as the floors fall down. The magic shop starts losing its power. As Jungkook blows away the petals he uncovers the truth (the truth untold).
Uncovering this truth allows Jungkook to disappear forever into a utopia with Suga. After losing validation they gain everything back with their love yourself albums. They all wear masks at the end of the magic shop clips and Jungkook wears a mask too. Even their fake love performance had them in dark cloaks wearing a mask. V uses masks in his singularity mv. The truth untold makes references to having a mask cover their true self.
