I'm just copy pasting an explaination I saw under another video: The Cube represents society, it is chasing every individual who doesn't fit the standards of society. Here V is half blind, IU is deaf and mute. So they are running from oppression of society. The world is controled by these standards of perfection to the point that people in the world put masks on when they don't have make-up or when they feel inssecure or they wear hats when their hair is messy. The MV is a dystopian view of our society. While they are trying to hide in this abondonned place filled with the clothes of people who died because of this oppression, they find a camera that allows them to have an illusion of what their lives could be if they were "normal" by society's standards, it starts with their looks, they could see how they would have looked like, then what they would eat, then they start to feel the illusion a bit too much to the point they beautifully imagine that IU could sing and V could sing as well and she could listen to his voice, they could marry each other and just have fun and eat whatever they want because they wouldn't have to care about society or any other kind of oppression. However, as soon as they feel a little bit of confort and try to live their life, the Cube (society) finds them again and push them to retreat and flee again, but the Cube managed to find them again, they try to survive against it and try to fight it as hard as they can, but they cannot beat a stronger system, they just give up but at least they stayed together until the end. Even if they died at the end, they loved each other deeply, it shows that even if society is oppressive, people can love each other and they can find their soulmate even if they are not "normal or perfect" to the eyes of some many others. The pile of clothes is like from Spring Day, these people died because of injustice, but they deserved love, so the pile of clothes can look very gloomy and sad, but as in Spring Day MV if you don't forget them you can seem them happy and free where they are right now...
This is more accurate translation of lyrics from IUteamstarcandy: 🎶 Dearest, Darling, My universe Would you take me along with you? To a place I can't dream of with this poor imagination of mine Far away in the universe from Earth to Mars Will you please go with me? Wherever that place may be, in search of the antonym to our long-standing loneliness* Through what kind of mistake did we end up being together and inseparable like this? Run away from the world, Run on Go all the way to the end with me, My lover Will it be a tragic ending for the two of us who took the road less traveled? Um Hold me so tightly that I'm crushed in your arms and give me a kiss filled with even more love, Lover Love is all Love is all Love Love Love Love In the end, still, I wonder why it had to be the two of us for each other Run away from the world, Run on Go all the way to the end with me, My lover Will it be a tragic ending for the two of us who took the road less traveled? Um I carefully capture your image with my eyes Please give me a serene smile once more Just like how we drifted, as if we were gliding at night that day, will you courageously fade away with me? Break me further into pieces coldly, Ruiner I want to be with you in sadness too, My lover Run away from the inevitable, Run on Go all the way to the end with me, My lover Two of us, in tandem, choosing to take our own path on purpose Hold me so tightly that I'm crushed in your arms and give me a kiss filled with even more love, Lover Our Love wins all Love wins all Love Love Love Love 🎶 We know IU Mvs didn't translate to well so there's a a group Uaenas from Singapore did more accurate translof IU songs. Hope it helps to you to understand more IU' message on the lyrics.
I knew this mv was going to be excellent, but I didn't expect it to move we all like this. The tenderness (almost innocence?) between them was so disarming. And then the hopelessness of it all... I was so immersed that I could feel their fear and despair.. V and IU's acting and chemistry are so excellent. I loved the fact that Taehyung was not the stereotypical fearless male lead. That man was terrified (he acted it so well!!) and that made everything, including his moment of bravery, feel even more real.
IU can't hear and V’s one eye can't see ,in the end IU covered the good eyes of Taehyung so he won't see the horrible ending in front of them ,im Stuck at how a single tear from Taehyung’s good eye traced its path down his face and IU’s hand gently covered his eyes, It's as if he found a momentary refuge in her touch, offering a subtle relief from the overwhelming sensation ... AH I CAN'T STOP CRYING 😢😢😢❤😢
@@AlvinaMayeda-qq1ze V also crying tho i can see it clearly since the first time, its so funny if it was IU's tears cuz their head not even in the same horizontal and it fall between V's cheeks & IU's hands LOL
A little bit of explanation from the Director, IU's music video for her pre-released track, 'Love wins all' was released on her official SNS channel at midnight between 23rd and 24th January and has become a hot topic. As soon as the video was posted, the unique video aesthetics of director Um Tae-hwa, who directed the passionate performance of IU and BTS V, resulted in 'nth viewing' (t/n: repeated viewing) by not just uaena, but music listeners as well Regarding the main keywords that led to the 'nth viewing', her agency released this interpretation guide and short interview with director Um Tae-hwa. 1. The "square" (t/n: cube) chasing after the main characters The identity of 'square', which relentlessly pursues the two of them, is the most divided among the fans (t/n: It is actually a cube, but calling it a 'square' is a more explicit way of describing a discriminatory world that only squares fit and not circles). Fans responded with various theories, such as, alien forces that have occupied the world", "zombies infected with a virus' and 'ghosts that cause odd phenomena (t/n:). 'Square' refers to the discrimination against the main characters and can also be interpreted as various kinds of discrimination and oppression that are prevalent in our daily lives. 2. The meaning behind the KEY ITEM, a 'camcorder' Next is the existence of a 'camcorder' that appeared in every promotion teaser. The time period background in the video is the present, but the scenes that are taken with the camcorder show a world that was intact before it became ruined. The lens of the camcorder represents a filter of love. It can also be viewed as an important device that can be used to see beautiful things in the world, beyond the internal and external appearances of characters. In the world within the camcorder, rather than their messy appearance in reality, they look lively and tidy and they eat delicious food that is nicely prepared for them and enjoy the happiness they have only imagined, while wearing glossy dresses and tuxedos. . 3. Outer appearance of the main characters The curiosity of Internet users exploded at the outer appearance of the main characters. There are many symbols in the music video, which show a 'survival story in a dystopian world, of those who cannot speak and those who only see the world with their left eyes. If you look closely at IU's lips, there is a small chain hanging there, which means that it is difficult for her to fully communicate with the world. V also has a white lens in his left eye, so even at a glance, it seems that the two of them will have many difficulties in navigating the difficulties of the world. Nevertheless, in a world ruined by the 'square', they have no choice but to rely even more on each other, as they try to overcome adversity until the very end, even when they are hurt and exhausted. 4. Why the wedding dress and tuxedo? Lastly, it is the wedding dress and tuxedo. IU and V chose a wedding dress and a tuxedo from the ruins. Here, a wedding dress and a tuxedo is the most clichéd way of symbolizing the 'fruit of love'. In the music video, the two of them put on these clothes, take pictures, sing and have fun together, doing things that have been difficult for them to do in their daily lives and enjoy some happiness momentarily. However, the 'square' eventually destroys their bodies, leaving behind only the 'clothes' they were wearing. The two are implied to be floating in the air on the last camcorder screen, which means they can fly freely, free from all kinds of oppression and pressure. Crucially, the dress and tuxedo falling from the sky also implicitly question whether conventions that are considered meaningful and important in real life actually really show the true essence of things. I also believe that they were the last people left. That's why they were being hunted down relentlessly.
yeah also and I think the camcorder might be showing their imagination of their ideal life where they don't have their disabilites, like tae with both eyes and iu singing in their wedding(since he is blind in one eye and she is mute in reality), and not chasen by the square😢
IU's voice sounds majestic and their acting felt so real. Glad that IU asked Tae to shoot the MV with her. These two were given National Titles by the Korean Media and netizens. IU "Nation's Sweetheart" and Tae "Nation's Treasure". Can't wait to see them acting together in a series. Thank you for reacting to IU's song.
V AMAZING acting out all these emotions of fear happiness sorrow furious, in a 5 minute music video is crazy because we see actors failing to act out a single emotion in an 1 hour long episode but here he is, the versatility is showing 😭They they forgot what they were running from because through the lens of the camera, they were able to just love and enjoy life until the reality caught up to them and they were taken away ICRY 😭😭❤😮😮
This song is actually a love letter for IU's fans, her Uaenas. It simply means that she also wants to be with them in their "rising and setting moments", like what she wrote in the 'Love wins all' song introduction and the lyrics. I think the director tried to make the song more meaningful and more emotional by interpreting it in a little bit different way through the mv.
Too late now but sometimes it’s best to watch a mv all the way through the first time if possible so you get the full context…the words, vocals and storyline is beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time…
The director has spoken about the meaning and said it's about discrimination, but he also said that interpretation is yours to make. Taehyung is blind in one eye, and IU is deaf, and possibly mute as she doesn't hear or speak but uses sign for words and signals for direction. They are trying to escape the world that sees them as worthless. You will have seen the pile of clothes in BTS Spring Day, and many have said this MV 'copies' it, when it doesn't: The 'pile of clothes' in Spring Day was a metaphor for loss and longing; RM said it was inspired by the loss of a friend, but also the Bong Joon Ho movie 'Snowpiercer' and the book 'The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas' by Ursula K. Le Guin; and though there are links that imply a connection to the Sewol Ferry disaster, BTS have never confirmed it. The artistic imagery of the pile of clothes BTS MV producers used in Spring Day is in homage to the artistic installation 'Personnes' by Christian Boltanski, 2010. An installation which speaks of souls who weren't ready to die, but died painfully ~ the implication being at the hands of others. In this case, in the IU MV, the 'hands' being society in the way it mocks (as in the faceless chaos of figures in the banquet scene IU and Taehyung fight off), marginalises and discriminates against those who do not fit into the box others/society judge should be the 'norm' (the box that is chasing them).
This level makes me crazy!!! He is wonderful, perfect, and a great actor!!! As all the world said ✨️👑✨️ I can't blame IU. I, too, would wear a wedding gown for this pretty boy and follow him around in an apocalypse until death do us apart
Finally !! Been waiting for your reaction video since the MV came out. You always have the best reaction videos on IU-related content. Thanks for this.
every time the close up of V's face comes at the end of the mv, I get goosebumps, it's as if I felt exactly what he was trying to convey, he's an excellent actor, I'd like to see him acting in a film when he leaves the army
In fact, the concept of "mountains of clothes" comes from 2010, it's French artist Christian Boltanski’s ambitious installation, "Personnes". Due to its shocking, satirical and warning effects, it seems to be quite famous in the realm of arts... I checked the information and found that it has been re-exhibited in the third revised version.

Myself personally I believe that the people in black are the souls of the others who have been taken. Since they don't know them their faces are covered. Beautiful mini movie. Well done IU and V. Glad you're on your way back to good health. Wishing you blessings, health and many blessings for this new year.
I think it's about life and it's inevitable end. For me when I saw people clothes outside that building it was like people who died before be able to find true love and that pile of clothes were for those who possibly found that camera could enjoy life despite the fact that everything look awful. That camera was that quality that some people have that can enjoy everything, can taste the sweet even with bitterness.And the end and death was a necessity that catch them and although it is sad but them facing it together is what that counts and has meaning. For me it was like we love each other until death apart us.
The chord verse structure and rhythm are similar to Christina Perri's A Thousand Years (a 12/8 tune ) but the melody is very different and there are key changes. But the strange thing is the two songs are about love and evoke a similar feeling.
Thaanks for reacting. I think eveery BS fan went to Spring Day initially seeing the stack of clothes. Every reactor so far gets caught up in the story like you did. It is amazing how quickly it draws you in, no dialog, just IUs's gorgeous, haunting vocal annd music. Props to IU, V, and Cube!
Aaron soo many armys spend their time and energy to answer your questions in the comments or describe the actual symbolism or concept which you often miss out on in many of the MVs. Yet you never acknowledge us ; you don’t ever like any of the comments under your videos nor heart any of them. A simple acknowledgment from you would have been nice at times so we know you care enough to understand more or appreciate the effort of your viewers.
Hi, thank you for sharing your thoughts! It just hasn’t become a habit of mine to click like on something even when I actually do like it, it’s the same with YT videos, Instagram posts etc. But I’ll try my best to change it about myself! Thank you for the support, really appreciate it!
I feel like the message of the song is saying love is unexplainable and she’s even questioning it, and yet, it’s more real than anything else in this world. So lets go through everything together, joy and pain because no matter what happens love wins all.
This mv has much details that we should pay attention to!! like I saw someone on X said that the part when IU taps V chest 3 times in the end. That is used often in sign language (or just in general) to say "I am here, I care and I love you". This rlly made me emotional 😢
Hello, appreciate how you react to this mv and you are the Best one reactor because I've watch over10 reactors and they even not noticed the one some of the scenes,,thank you for sharing your reaction👍10/10,,Love Wins All👍💜🤩🤗💖✌️
I don't know if there is a live clip video performance for this one because she will perform this live in her wold tour concert starting march... ..and the release of her new album is in February.....
Thanks for the reaction Aaron❤I am really waiting for this🙌Read this article it's come from the MV directer interview you can get Clear view about this song.and take care of your health 💜 The Cube represents society, it is chasing every individual who doesn't fit the standards of society. Here V is half blind, IU is deaf and mute. So they are running from oppression of society. The world is controled by these standards of perfection to the point that people in South Korea put masks on when they don't have make-up or when they feel unsecure or they wear hats when their hair is messy. The MV is a dysopian view of our society. While they are trying to hide in this abondonned place filled with the clothes of people who died because of this oppression, they find a camera that allows them to have an illusion of what their lives could be if they were "normal" by society's standards, it starts with their looks, they could see how they would have looked like, then what they would eat, then they startwith their looks, they could see how they would have looked like, then what they would eat, then they start to feel the illusion a bit too much to the point they beautifully imagine that IU could sing and V could sing as well and she could listen to his voice, they could marry each other and just have fun and eat whatever they want because they wouldn't have to care about society or any other kind of oppression.

The pile of clothes is like from Spring Day, these people died because of injustice, but they deserved love, so the pile of clothes can look very gloomy and sad, but as in Spring Day MV if you don't forget them you can seem them happy and free where they are now.
The director did say viewers can have their own interpretation. The camcorder serves as a filter and allows imagination to roam freely. Everything is imagination through the camcorder. Reality resumes when you see their wounds and tattered clothes. In the end, the two of them are seen ascending to a better place through the camcorder, while they are eradicated in reality. So sad. So beautiful. So brutally real.
Here's my take. The song is a haunting love song. The video is a haunting love story. The song is not telling the specific story of the video, and the video doesn't specifically match the song. We are each free to explain the video in the personal way each of us sees it, as that gorgeous song adds depth of emotion to the story.
This is the track intro that IU announced before the release of the song. Because we used a translator, it may not be translated in a full sense. I hope this track intro will help you interpret the song. Someone calls this an age of great hatred. It certainly doesn't seem to be a time when love is prevalent. In a gray world that is getting colder with noticeable hostility and indifference, It sometimes feels absurd to hope for victory with invisible love as a weapon. However, the very hatred I have experienced in person is always alone, even in moments of good momentum. On the other hand, love is terribly together even as it runs away, breaks down, and goes down. Love has a good chance of winning. It tells the story of those who try to love until the end in a world that prevents them from loving. In this album, which contains five songs as a side note, there are two songs dedicated to the people I love, especially my fans, and one of them is this song, "Love Wins all". From the age of 18 until now, when his life changed overnight with sudden great love. There is not a day when I have not imagined anything. I was vaguely lonely, scared, and thought it was natural. But when I thought about it for a few decades every day, my attitude toward it changed little by little. I'm not really scared at the moment. I don't think I'm going to feel any more sad or lonely at that moment. Above all, I don't think it's going to be that close. The reason why I, a pessimistic and worried child, was able to change so much in the meantime may be because there were some people who reassured me every day without being exhausted over the past few decades. Thanks to them, come to think of it, I've never been alone for a moment, living as an IU. To my diligent fans who have never left me alone. Perhaps I want to say thank you for endlessly cultivating love in my heart, which is a type of evil dryness to be born with. Also, I still don't know for some reason, but I'm very grateful that you've chosen my side every time. As you did to me, I want to be a person with you in the moment of your rise and youth. I want to be the person next to him who says, "I'm not scared. We're the coolest." It continues IU's grand ballad series, which has been loved by fans, including "Secret," "Dear Name," "Love Poem," and "Sea of Children and Me," as a ballad song that rhymes with a minimal and vintage piano intro to a maximum outro. In the second half, the emotions are maximized by the combative vocals and instrumental compositions reminiscent of colorful symphonies. The rhythm as if swimming in the sky and the harmony themes built on it increase the attractiveness of six-eighth beats, and the string, which spreads widely and gently wraps around the entire sound, adds a sense of width and depth to the song. If you follow IU's delicate vocal technique, harmony of the wide range melody, and the constant running height, you will reach the end and focus on IU's last breath.
to me, the people in masks, just meant to me, that because these two were making up a scenario in their heads, as doom in upon them, their faces doesn't matter. just like in a memory, you don't remember the people around you. you just remember the two of you. but it could also represent some type of more hostile enemy, that these two tries to have fun despite haters being after them trying to ruin their moment. HOWEVER the most important message has to be the most easy one: simply that a pure love, was not allowed to be, and is taken away. who is doing it, why is doing it - does that really matter at the core? their love ended because they weren't allowed to be with each other. you can theorize with WHO it is forever. but i think IU wanted to say something simple. we live in a crazy world. and idols live in a world where they are not allowed to love, without hate. but no one can stop a real love. so whoever you love, will this love stay with you throughout dark times till the end? i think that's all. but just my opinion. 💕
The gorgeous IU has created an anthem of love for all time. It's a true masterpiece. Everything in this music video is beautiful, right down to the dust on the tables. It's pure art. The song is so sensual and sublime. The interactions between IU and V in the music video are amazing.
bro what ive listened to this song n already watched the mv a couple of times w/out feeling the needs to cry.. TELL ME WHY TO A REACTION IS WHEN MY TEARS DECIDED TO COME?? im sobbing help
I really really loved this reaction because you were so thorough! You even noticed the special guest! You are only the second reactor that I’ve seen who has spotted it! Some other bits of information as well as my own thoughts on the MV… the song lyrically is dedicated to IU’s fans who have accompanied her through out all the highs and lows according to the letter she released before this release. Her letter was very touching. It’s also according to her letter a message that in the age of hate, love truimphs and is always more powerful. I’ve included the key points that IU’s agency released the morning after this was released to media from their official MV interpretation guide from the director at the end of my comment (my comment is my initial thoughts and reactions before reading the interpretation guide.) For those who want to know the ‘official’ intended meaning of MV feel free to skip and scroll to the end of my comment. It’s so interesting to see how wrong some of us were in our interpretations and how right some of us were in terms of interpretation or what they intended to show… for example picking up on the fact that Tae is partially sighted and that IU has verbal difficulties… with the use of sign language and I was pleased that some of the points I was right on but I totally didn’t pick up on the ending being positive actually… and ‘freeing them from oppression and pressure’. I thought it was a sad ending initially. It’s so interesting to rewatch the MV after reading the official interpretation guide too. I think it’s a good lesson on our very preconceived ideas of love. I also love that you picked up on the scene you were seeing not being real. Personally when I first watched it… the MV moved me to tears. The song was intricately and exquisitely beautiful… IU’s Vocals gave me goosebumps. The subtlety in the acting was perfection and the visuals by both… just wow. Tae in all his sweetness, softness and gentleness was honestly the definition of prettiness. There was something so beautifully vulnerable and delicate about him, that touched my soul. In terms of the meaning (in addition to what was included in the interpretation guide)… In the Korean press releases of this song used in all the articles a few days ago… IU said that: ‘I want to respect and support everyone who loves and lives in various ways with love rather than hate’ this and the statement released before when the song was called Love Wins was released, which talked about people who face prejudices and obstacles in love… Personally make me think that it’s showing that many people in love face stigma’s and obstacles for whatever reason in life for things that they are born with and have no control over. Personally I think when they look through the camera they see the perfect world in which everyone can live without the lens of hate where people don’t see you or judge you for your stigma’s or labels but they see the whole you. Another thing that I find beautiful with the sign language involved is that both IU and Tae have a history of sign language. IU with her ear condition and Tae has communicated in official sign language many times (his birthday is even celebrated by some of the deaf community in S.K). I also feel the box was representing the hate that tears people down and strips them of their humanity out of prejudice. Personally I feel there was a wider message in this MV and feel that Tae very specifically chose to appear in this MV because of the message. I’ve lost count of times over the years where he has said he would like to side with the marginalised or the minority in life. From the creation of his drawn characters in numerous content, to his BT21 character, to his fairytale character he chose in the 7th Army Zip content that was tragically killed for being different. I feel like this MV very much fits with that ethos of representing and identifying with the marginalised in society. Also I think the message that love allows us to see the world with a healing and whole lens too. When IU sings ‘all love wins’ in amongst the lyrics I got goosebumps. After all ALL love is love. This MV for me was very much Art. And the song was so beautiful. Bravo IU and Tae. Thanks for this reaction! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 Update: IU’s agency released an interpretation guide: '''Square box' can be interpreted to mean discrimination against the protagonists, and furthermore, to mean various kinds of discrimination and oppression that are prevalent in our daily lives." "2. KEY ITEM "Camcorder" Meaning Next, there is the existence of the 'camcorder' that appeared in every pre-promotion content. The time setting in the video is the present, but the settings on the screen where the camcorder is recorded are the world that was intact before it was destroyed. The lens of a camcorder is a love filter. It can also be seen as an important device that allows us to look beyond the inner or outer appearance of the characters and look at the beautiful things in the world. In the world of the camcorder, they are not as messy as in real life, but lively and well-groomed, eating delicious food prepared in a beautiful manner, and enjoying the happiness they have only imagined as they walk through many spaces in glossy dresses and tuxedos." "4. Why wedding dresses and tuxedos? Last but not least, a wedding dress and a tuxedo. IU and V each picked out a weddipng dress and a tuxedo from the ruins. Here, the wedding dress and tuxedo symbolize the most cliché, "the fruit of love." In the movie, the two wear these clothes, take pictures, and have fun singing and having fun, all of which are difficult to do in everyday life, and enjoy happiness for a while. In the end, however, the bodies are destroyed by the squares, leaving only the clothes they were wearing. The two are implied to be lifted into the air in the final camcorder footage, meaning that they are free to fly free from all oppression and pressure. Crucially, the dresses and tuxedos falling from the sky also have the implication of questioning whether the forms that are considered meaningful and important in reality show their true essence?”
In this video, the woman is mute, the man is blind in one eye. In my opinion, this video tells the story of their love life, which they are trying desperately to protect amidst various threats. This could also mean that their love is not approved by the world. but despite all the obstacles, love is all. love is everything. love always wins.
It was truly amazing 😍...her voice is a balm for all wounds, the lyrics are inspiring, and her and V's visuals and acting are something special.💯💜 Did you know that IU is having a world tour this year? definitely go ;)
to be honest, I'm crying a lot bc this music video, yes it's just a music video! I know 😭😭 and their acting skill can catch me and take me to their world and the whole time....... and everything happen in 5 minutes!!! 😭
The remarkable thing about this marketing strategy (mv pre-released ahead of the streaming audio platform) is that the imagery of the mv will be forever burnt to the listener’s mind when they listen only to the song afterwards without the mv. Genius but not many artists can afford it.
You're only the second reactor I've seen mention the special thanks to the cube 😂 thought that was hilarious. BUT the MV and song together are SO haunting and sad. Beautiful but sad. IU and V's emotions blew me away. And their chemistry! 😮 Wow..

Actually that Line is Why must we be so together run away from the world.. Run on.. She breaks and sings the line in parts. So it's a longgg line😂💜 I'm absolutely in love with Love Wins All. Actor Taehyung nailed it. I hope we get a kdrama from V & IU when V comes back
I love the MV. IU sounds like a Disney princess. I would have loved to hear V sing with her. I couldn't listen to her alone 24/7.... though she sings beautifully, just not my style. Every-once in a while is perfect for me. Both did an amazing job acting!
💚I'm glad your health got better, but I'm heartbroken that you look so emaciated. 🎞I think this song is a message of appreciation and love to her fans. So cube is the part that gave her and her fans a hard time, and V is UAENA. V is a very scared character, and the last scene where V fights to protect her and She covers V eyes is really touching. Just thinking about it makes me cry. 🌵My favorite scene is a close-up shot of her eyes that looking at Cube at the end. It's as if she's saying that we're not afraid of you(cube) anymore. 🍒IU said, "Hate is always alone even when it's powerful. Love, on the other hand, stays with you until the end, even if it breaks and runs away." 🍏I hope Aaron gets well soon🍓💟Wow~ The behind-the-scenes video of this MV was posted on IU TV just now🍑
I think the black people represents the haters. It actually tells that even if you become the one you want still some people will hate you and the way they are happily enjoying it tells that you should bot care about those as long as you are with loved one's. That's only my point idk about others
Yes this was my first video of you, and tbh you’re too bland of a reactor. I didn’t see you being amazed or impressed about their acting, you mostly only talked about the music even though you said that the first time watching is to “focus” on the music video. You didn’t try to understand the story but just said that it looks like an acoplase, which is what everyone can guess. However I didn’t want to be judgy, so I went to other videos, yet you’re still too bland. Almost quiet the whole time and only question things, like “What is this? What does this mean? Who is this?”. Yeah no thanks, I don’t even get why people watch you.

IU has announced her concert world tour. Will you be able to attend any of them?
please reaction to nmixx dash
I'm just copy pasting an explaination I saw under another video:
The Cube represents society, it is chasing every individual who doesn't fit the standards of society. Here V is half blind, IU is deaf and mute. So they are running from oppression of society. The world is controled by these standards of perfection to the point that people in the world put masks on when they don't have make-up or when they feel inssecure or they wear hats when their hair is messy. The MV is a dystopian view of our society. While they are trying to hide in this abondonned place filled with the clothes of people who died because of this oppression, they find a camera that allows them to have an illusion of what their lives could be if they were "normal" by society's standards, it starts with their looks, they could see how they would have looked like, then what they would eat, then they start to feel the illusion a bit too much to the point they beautifully imagine that IU could sing and V could sing as well and she could listen to his voice, they could marry each other and just have fun and eat whatever they want because they wouldn't have to care about society or any other kind of oppression. However, as soon as they feel a little bit of confort and try to live their life, the Cube (society) finds them again and push them to retreat and flee again, but the Cube managed to find them again, they try to survive against it and try to fight it as hard as they can, but they cannot beat a stronger system, they just give up but at least they stayed together until the end. Even if they died at the end, they loved each other deeply, it shows that even if society is oppressive, people can love each other and they can find their soulmate even if they are not "normal or perfect" to the eyes of some many others. The pile of clothes is like from Spring Day, these people died because of injustice, but they deserved love, so the pile of clothes can look very gloomy and sad, but as in Spring Day MV if you don't forget them you can seem them happy and free where they are right now...
This is more accurate translation of lyrics from IUteamstarcandy:
🎶
Dearest, Darling, My universe
Would you take me along with you?
To a place I can't dream of
with this poor imagination of mine
Far away in the universe from Earth to Mars
Will you please go with me?
Wherever that place may be, in search of the antonym to our long-standing loneliness*
Through what kind of mistake
did we end up being together and inseparable like this?
Run away from the world, Run on
Go all the way to the end with me, My lover Will it be a tragic ending
for the two of us who took the road less traveled? Um
Hold me so tightly that I'm crushed in your arms
and give me a kiss filled with even more love, Lover Love is all Love is all
Love Love Love Love
In the end, still,
I wonder why it had to be the two of us
for each other
Run away from the world, Run on
Go all the way to the end with me, My lover
Will it be a tragic ending
for the two of us who took the road less traveled? Um
I carefully capture your image with my eyes
Please give me a serene smile once more
Just like how we drifted, as if we were gliding at night that day, will you courageously fade away with me?
Break me further into pieces coldly, Ruiner
I want to be with you in sadness too, My lover
Run away from the inevitable, Run on
Go all the way to the end with me, My lover
Two of us, in tandem, choosing to take our own path on purpose
Hold me so tightly that I'm crushed in your arms
and give me a kiss filled with even more love, Lover Our Love wins all Love wins all Love Love Love Love
🎶
We know IU Mvs didn't translate to well so there's a a group Uaenas from Singapore did more accurate translof IU songs. Hope it helps to you to understand more IU' message on the lyrics.
I knew this mv was going to be excellent, but I didn't expect it to move we all like this. The tenderness (almost innocence?) between them was so disarming. And then the hopelessness of it all... I was so immersed that I could feel their fear and despair.. V and IU's acting and chemistry are so excellent. I loved the fact that Taehyung was not the stereotypical fearless male lead. That man was terrified (he acted it so well!!) and that made everything, including his moment of bravery, feel even more real.
I've already seen the mv more than 20 times and I always end up tearing up at the end
Nado
Same 🙏✨🥺🥺
Same here
IU can't hear and V’s one eye can't see ,in the end IU covered the good eyes of Taehyung so he won't see the horrible ending in front of them ,im Stuck at how a single tear from Taehyung’s good eye traced its path down his face and IU’s hand gently covered his eyes, It's as if he found a momentary refuge in her touch, offering a subtle relief from the overwhelming sensation ... AH I CAN'T STOP CRYING 😢😢😢❤😢
No need to waste your support here 🌈 very promising
Oh that make sense
I think it’s IU’s tear. The person crying has bangs. V’s hair is parted in the middle.😅👍🏼☮️
She also covered his good eye.
@@AlvinaMayeda-qq1ze V also crying tho i can see it clearly since the first time, its so funny if it was IU's tears cuz their head not even in the same horizontal and it fall between V's cheeks & IU's hands LOL
A little bit of explanation from the Director,
IU's music video for her pre-released track, 'Love wins all' was released on her official SNS channel at midnight between 23rd and 24th January and has become a hot topic. As soon as the video was posted, the unique video aesthetics of director Um Tae-hwa, who directed the passionate performance of IU and BTS V, resulted in 'nth viewing' (t/n: repeated viewing) by not just uaena, but music listeners as well Regarding the main keywords that led to the 'nth viewing', her agency released this interpretation guide and short interview with director Um Tae-hwa.
1. The "square" (t/n: cube) chasing after the main characters The identity of 'square', which relentlessly pursues the two of them, is the most divided among the fans (t/n: It is actually a cube, but calling it a 'square' is a more explicit way of describing a discriminatory world that only squares fit and not circles). Fans responded with various theories, such as, alien forces that have occupied the world", "zombies infected with a virus' and 'ghosts that cause odd phenomena (t/n:). 'Square' refers to the discrimination against the main characters and can also be interpreted as various kinds of discrimination and oppression that are prevalent in our daily lives.
2. The meaning behind the KEY ITEM, a 'camcorder' Next is the existence of a 'camcorder' that appeared in every promotion teaser. The time period background in the video is the present, but the scenes that are taken with the camcorder show a world that was intact before it became ruined. The lens of the camcorder represents a filter of love. It can also be viewed as an important device that can be used to see beautiful things in the world, beyond the internal and external appearances of characters. In the world within the camcorder, rather than their messy appearance in reality, they look lively and tidy and they eat delicious food that is nicely prepared for them and enjoy the happiness they have only imagined, while wearing glossy dresses and tuxedos. .
3. Outer appearance of the main characters The curiosity of Internet users exploded at the outer appearance of the main characters. There are many symbols in the music video, which show a 'survival story in a dystopian world, of those who cannot speak and those who only see the world with their left eyes. If you look closely at IU's lips, there is a small chain hanging there, which means that it is difficult for her to fully communicate with the world. V also has a white lens in his left eye, so even at a glance, it seems that the two of them will have many difficulties in navigating the difficulties of the world. Nevertheless, in a world ruined by the 'square', they have no choice but to rely even more on each other, as they try to overcome adversity until the very end, even when they are hurt and exhausted.
4. Why the wedding dress and tuxedo? Lastly, it is the wedding dress and tuxedo. IU and V chose a wedding dress and a tuxedo from the ruins. Here, a wedding dress and a tuxedo is the most clichéd way of symbolizing the 'fruit of love'. In the music video, the two of them put on these clothes, take pictures, sing and have fun together, doing things that have been difficult for them to do in their daily lives and enjoy some happiness momentarily. However, the 'square' eventually destroys their bodies, leaving behind only the 'clothes' they were wearing. The two are implied to be floating in the air on the last camcorder screen, which means they can fly freely, free from all kinds of oppression and pressure. Crucially, the dress and tuxedo falling from the sky also implicitly question whether conventions that are considered meaningful and important in real life actually really show the true essence of things.
I also believe that they were the last people left. That's why they were being hunted down relentlessly.
Сразу же после выпуска клипа 14 000 000 просмотров.
yeah also and I think the camcorder might be showing their imagination of their ideal life where they don't have their disabilites, like tae with both eyes and iu singing in their wedding(since he is blind in one eye and she is mute in reality), and not chasen by the square😢
Wow, thanks for that long explanation. It makes sense. I wouldn’t have get to that conclusion 😅❗️Have a blessed day 👍🏼😉☮️.
IU's voice sounds majestic and their acting felt so real. Glad that IU asked Tae to shoot the MV with her. These two were given National Titles by the Korean Media and netizens. IU "Nation's Sweetheart" and Tae "Nation's Treasure". Can't wait to see them acting together in a series. Thank you for reacting to IU's song.
IU impressed me again.😭❤
IU’s world tour is around the corner and you should enjoy the amazing experience of her live performances. 🥳
IU is QUEEN of Kpop
IU music is not kpop genre
Kpop queen is boa
V AMAZING acting out all these emotions of fear happiness sorrow furious, in a 5 minute music video is crazy because we see actors failing to act out a single emotion in an 1 hour long episode but here he is, the versatility is showing 😭They they forgot what they were running from because through the lens of the camera, they were able to just love and enjoy life until the reality caught up to them and they were taken away ICRY 😭😭❤😮😮
Imagine the height he’ll reach as an actor ⁉️
This song is actually a love letter for IU's fans, her Uaenas. It simply means that she also wants to be with them in their "rising and setting moments", like what she wrote in the 'Love wins all' song introduction and the lyrics. I think the director tried to make the song more meaningful and more emotional by interpreting it in a little bit different way through the mv.
Too late now but sometimes it’s best to watch a mv all the way through the first time if possible so you get the full context…the words, vocals and storyline is beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time…
The director has spoken about the meaning and said it's about discrimination, but he also said that interpretation is yours to make.
Taehyung is blind in one eye, and IU is deaf, and possibly mute as she doesn't hear or speak but uses sign for words and signals for direction. They are trying to escape the world that sees them as worthless.
You will have seen the pile of clothes in BTS Spring Day, and many have said this MV 'copies' it, when it doesn't:
The 'pile of clothes' in Spring Day was a metaphor for loss and longing; RM said it was inspired by the loss of a friend, but also the Bong Joon Ho movie 'Snowpiercer' and the book 'The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas' by Ursula K. Le Guin; and though there are links that imply a connection to the Sewol Ferry disaster, BTS have never confirmed it.
The artistic imagery of the pile of clothes BTS MV producers used in Spring Day is in homage to the artistic installation 'Personnes' by Christian Boltanski, 2010. An installation which speaks of souls who weren't ready to die, but died painfully ~ the implication being at the hands of others.
In this case, in the IU MV, the 'hands' being society in the way it mocks (as in the faceless chaos of figures in the banquet scene IU and Taehyung fight off), marginalises and discriminates against those who do not fit into the box others/society judge should be the 'norm' (the box that is chasing them).
Bts never confirm it because if they say something about it. They will be in a danger. Government is watching 😃
V was blind and she was deaf/mute....Oscar-worthy performances!!
This level makes me crazy!!! He is wonderful, perfect, and a great actor!!! As all the world said ✨️👑✨️ I can't blame IU. I, too, would wear a wedding gown for this pretty boy and follow him around in an apocalypse until death do us apart
Hope IU and V in Kdrama / movies they amazing. ❤❤❤
One of the videos I've been waiting for has finally been uploaded. Aaron's reaction to seeing love wins all from IU. Thank you Aaron for the reaction
Finally !! Been waiting for your reaction video since the MV came out. You always have the best reaction videos on IU-related content. Thanks for this.
every time the close up of V's face comes at the end of the mv, I get goosebumps, it's as if I felt exactly what he was trying to convey, he's an excellent actor, I'd like to see him acting in a film when he leaves the army
In fact, the concept of "mountains of clothes" comes from 2010, it's French artist Christian Boltanski’s ambitious installation, "Personnes".
Due to its shocking, satirical and warning effects, it seems to be quite famous in the realm of arts... I checked the information and found that it has been re-exhibited in the third revised version.
And the art installation do means, in short answer, pile of bodies, so the MV told you the ending at the very beginning already.

Estaba esperando tu reacción Aaron gracias 🙏🙏💜💜💜💜
She’s going to sing it on her concert soon, you should attend her concert Aaron😃
You attend iu concert world tour my guys🎉
istg everytime I watch this I cry my eyes out
Myself personally I believe that the people in black are the souls of the others who have been taken. Since they don't know them their faces are covered. Beautiful mini movie. Well done IU and V.
Glad you're on your way back to good health. Wishing you blessings, health and many blessings for this new year.
I think it's about life and it's inevitable end. For me when I saw people clothes outside that building it was like people who died before be able to find true love and that pile of clothes were for those who possibly found that camera could enjoy life despite the fact that everything look awful. That camera was that quality that some people have that can enjoy everything, can taste the sweet even with bitterness.And the end and death was a necessity that catch them and although it is sad but them facing it together is what that counts and has meaning. For me it was like we love each other until death apart us.
I love IU voice so much 😍💜 and also V such a great acting 👏💜
I always love your reactions so much- rlly waited for this 🤍
I've been literally waiting for your reaction 😂 I looked for it 3 hours ago. Thank you! IU and V are both amazing!
We all had the same reaction. It's a total masterpiece: the song, the mv, the acting, the storyline, their chemistry 😭
Yeah...im glad You're back...been waiting for your honest reaction about this...
The chord verse structure and rhythm are similar to Christina Perri's A Thousand Years (a 12/8 tune ) but the melody is very different and there are key changes. But the strange thing is the two songs are about love and evoke a similar feeling.
11:09 手を3回トントンするのは愛してるって意味なんだよ😭
Thaanks for reacting. I think eveery BS fan went to Spring Day initially seeing the stack of clothes. Every reactor so far gets caught up in the story like you did. It is amazing how quickly it draws you in, no dialog, just IUs's gorgeous, haunting vocal annd music. Props to IU, V, and Cube!
damn iu even listed cube as a special guest
Made me smile through my tears. @@yunanana8084
Ahhhh this song is just too good 😭😩😩
My interpretation is that the box represents death, which everyone will inevitably face
i’m glad you’re better now
Aaron soo many armys spend their time and energy to answer your questions in the comments or describe the actual symbolism or concept which you often miss out on in many of the MVs. Yet you never acknowledge us ; you don’t ever like any of the comments under your videos nor heart any of them. A simple acknowledgment from you would have been nice at times so we know you care enough to understand more or appreciate the effort of your viewers.
Hi, thank you for sharing your thoughts! It just hasn’t become a habit of mine to click like on something even when I actually do like it, it’s the same with YT videos, Instagram posts etc. But I’ll try my best to change it about myself! Thank you for the support, really appreciate it!
I feel like the message of the song is saying love is unexplainable and she’s even questioning it, and yet, it’s more real than anything else in this world. So lets go through everything together, joy and pain because no matter what happens love wins all.
This mv has much details that we should pay attention to!! like I saw someone on X said that the part when IU taps V chest 3 times in the end. That is used often in sign language (or just in general) to say "I am here, I care and I love you".
This rlly made me emotional 😢
I fell for her voice
The pile of clothes did remind me of Spring Day but its more in reference of an artist who did something like this in a museum from memory.
Finally, i waiting for your reaction 😊
Muchas gracias.....😔😔😔💜
终于等到你的reaction了❤,祝你流感早日康复!

The actual song is 4 and a half minutes :D
Thanks for the reaction Aaron❤I am really waiting for this🙌Read this article it's come from the MV directer interview you can get Clear view about this song.and take care of your health 💜
The Cube represents society, it is chasing every individual who doesn't fit the standards of society.
Here V is half blind, IU is deaf and mute. So they are running from oppression of society. The world is controled by these standards of perfection to the point that people in South Korea put masks on when they don't have make-up or when they feel unsecure or they wear hats when their hair is messy. The MV is a dysopian view of our society. While they are trying to hide in this abondonned place filled with the clothes of people who died because of this oppression, they find a camera that allows them to have an illusion of what their lives could be if they were "normal" by society's standards, it starts with their looks, they could see how they would have looked like, then what they would eat, then they startwith their looks, they could see how they would have looked like, then what they would eat, then they start to feel the illusion a bit too much to the point they beautifully imagine that IU could sing and V could sing as well and she could listen to his voice, they could marry each other and just have fun and eat whatever they want because they wouldn't have to care about society or any other kind of oppression. However, as soon as they feel a little bit of confort and try to live their life, the Cube (society) finds them again and push them to retreat and flee again, but the Cube managed to find them again, they try to survive against it and try to fight it as hard as they can, but they cannot beat a stronger system, they just give up but at least they stayed together until the end. Even if they died at the end, theyloved each other deeply, it shows that even if society is oppressive, people can love each other and they can find their soulmate even if they are not "normal or perfect" to the eyes of some many others. The pile of clothes is like from Spring Day, these people died because of injustice, but they deserved love, so the pile of clothes can look very gloomy and sad, but as in Spring Day MV if you don't forget them you can seem them happy and free where they are now.
Thank u sm for the explanation 😊
Ngl, this is my first time seeing you so immersed in reacting to a kpop mv. They both killed it, V acting, the story and Iu vocals wow
Really sad bro. But this mv so fantastic. True love story. IU voice is beautiful. Tae and IU were perfect in acting. Love it.
The director did say viewers can have their own interpretation.
The camcorder serves as a filter and allows imagination to roam freely. Everything is imagination through the camcorder.
Reality resumes when you see their wounds and tattered clothes.
In the end, the two of them are seen ascending to a better place through the camcorder, while they are eradicated in reality.
So sad. So beautiful. So brutally real.
I like realistic reactions like this, not fake like the others
yeah, every other CZcamsr always likes the MV, has positive opinions, or exaggerates reactions, and it's cringe.
У всех восприятие и выражение чувств разные,но многие блогеры все сопереживали,и были опечалены финалом
Here's my take. The song is a haunting love song. The video is a haunting love story. The song is not telling the specific story of the video, and the video doesn't specifically match the song. We are each free to explain the video in the personal way each of us sees it, as that gorgeous song adds depth of emotion to the story.
This is the track intro that IU announced before the release of the song.
Because we used a translator, it may not be translated in a full sense.
I hope this track intro will help you interpret the song.
Someone calls this an age of great hatred.
It certainly doesn't seem to be a time when love is prevalent.
In a gray world that is getting colder with noticeable hostility and indifference,
It sometimes feels absurd to hope for victory with invisible love as a weapon.
However, the very hatred I have experienced in person is always alone, even in moments of good momentum.
On the other hand, love is terribly together even as it runs away, breaks down, and goes down.
Love has a good chance of winning.
It tells the story of those who try to love until the end in a world that prevents them from loving.
In this album, which contains five songs as a side note, there are two songs dedicated to the people I love, especially my fans, and one of them is this song, "Love Wins all".
From the age of 18 until now, when his life changed overnight with sudden great love.
There is not a day when I have not imagined anything. I was vaguely lonely, scared, and thought it was natural.
But when I thought about it for a few decades every day, my attitude toward it changed little by little.
I'm not really scared at the moment. I don't think I'm going to feel any more sad or lonely at that moment.
Above all, I don't think it's going to be that close.
The reason why I, a pessimistic and worried child, was able to change so much in the meantime may be because there were some people who reassured me every day without being exhausted over the past few decades.
Thanks to them, come to think of it, I've never been alone for a moment, living as an IU.
To my diligent fans who have never left me alone.
Perhaps I want to say thank you for endlessly cultivating love in my heart, which is a type of evil dryness to be born with.
Also, I still don't know for some reason, but I'm very grateful that you've chosen my side every time.
As you did to me, I want to be a person with you in the moment of your rise and youth.
I want to be the person next to him who says, "I'm not scared. We're the coolest."
It continues IU's grand ballad series, which has been loved by fans, including "Secret," "Dear Name," "Love Poem," and "Sea of Children and Me," as a ballad song that rhymes with a minimal and vintage piano intro to a maximum outro. In the second half, the emotions are maximized by the combative vocals and instrumental compositions reminiscent of colorful symphonies.
The rhythm as if swimming in the sky and the harmony themes built on it increase the attractiveness of six-eighth beats, and the string, which spreads widely and gently wraps around the entire sound, adds a sense of width and depth to the song.
If you follow IU's delicate vocal technique, harmony of the wide range melody, and the constant running height, you will reach the end and focus on IU's last breath.
Get well, Aaron! thanks for your reaction… indeed the MV is impactful we can learn a lot what love means even danger & death will not separate them ..
No she going to sing it on her world tour concert.
to me, the people in masks, just meant to me, that because these two were making up a scenario in their heads, as doom in upon them, their faces doesn't matter. just like in a memory, you don't remember the people around you. you just remember the two of you. but it could also represent some type of more hostile enemy, that these two tries to have fun despite haters being after them trying to ruin their moment. HOWEVER the most important message has to be the most easy one: simply that a pure love, was not allowed to be, and is taken away. who is doing it, why is doing it - does that really matter at the core? their love ended because they weren't allowed to be with each other. you can theorize with WHO it is forever. but i think IU wanted to say something simple.
we live in a crazy world. and idols live in a world where they are not allowed to love, without hate. but no one can stop a real love. so whoever you love, will this love stay with you throughout dark times till the end? i think that's all.
but just my opinion. 💕
The gorgeous IU has created an anthem of love for all time. It's a true masterpiece. Everything in this music video is beautiful, right down to the dust on the tables. It's pure art. The song is so sensual and sublime. The interactions between IU and V in the music video are amazing.
Finalllyyyyyyyyy
bro what ive listened to this song n already watched the mv a couple of times w/out feeling the needs to cry.. TELL ME WHY TO A REACTION IS WHEN MY TEARS DECIDED TO COME?? im sobbing help
I really really loved this reaction because you were so thorough! You even noticed the special guest! You are only the second reactor that I’ve seen who has spotted it!
Some other bits of information as well as my own thoughts on the MV…
the song lyrically is dedicated to IU’s fans who have accompanied her through out all the highs and lows according to the letter she released before this release. Her letter was very touching. It’s also according to her letter a message that in the age of hate, love truimphs and is always more powerful.
I’ve included the key points that IU’s agency released the morning after this was released to media from their official MV interpretation guide from the director at the end of my comment (my comment is my initial thoughts and reactions before reading the interpretation guide.)
For those who want to know the ‘official’ intended meaning of MV feel free to skip and scroll to the end of my comment.
It’s so interesting to see how wrong some of us were in our interpretations and how right some of us were in terms of interpretation or what they intended to show… for example picking up on the fact that Tae is partially sighted and that IU has verbal difficulties… with the use of sign language and I was pleased that some of the points I was right on but I totally didn’t pick up on the ending being positive actually… and ‘freeing them from oppression and pressure’. I thought it was a sad ending initially. It’s so interesting to rewatch the MV after reading the official interpretation guide too. I think it’s a good lesson on our very preconceived ideas of love. I also love that you picked up on the scene you were seeing not being real.
Personally when I first watched it… the MV moved me to tears. The song was intricately and exquisitely beautiful… IU’s Vocals gave me goosebumps. The subtlety in the acting was perfection and the visuals by both… just wow. Tae in all his sweetness, softness and gentleness was honestly the definition of prettiness. There was something so beautifully vulnerable and delicate about him, that touched my soul.
In terms of the meaning (in addition to what was included in the interpretation guide)… In the Korean press releases of this song used in all the articles a few days ago… IU said that: ‘I want to respect and support everyone who loves and lives in various ways with love rather than hate’ this and the statement released before when the song was called Love Wins was released, which talked about people who face prejudices and obstacles in love… Personally make me think that it’s showing that many people in love face stigma’s and obstacles for whatever reason in life for things that they are born with and have no control over. Personally I think when they look through the camera they see the perfect world in which everyone can live without the lens of hate where people don’t see you or judge you for your stigma’s or labels but they see the whole you. Another thing that I find beautiful with the sign language involved is that both IU and Tae have a history of sign language. IU with her ear condition and Tae has communicated in official sign language many times (his birthday is even celebrated by some of the deaf community in S.K).
I also feel the box was representing the hate that tears people down and strips them of their humanity out of prejudice. Personally I feel there was a wider message in this MV and feel that Tae very specifically chose to appear in this MV because of the message. I’ve lost count of times over the years where he has said he would like to side with the marginalised or the minority in life. From the creation of his drawn characters in numerous content, to his BT21 character, to his fairytale character he chose in the 7th Army Zip content that was tragically killed for being different. I feel like this MV very much fits with that ethos of representing and identifying with the marginalised in society. Also I think the message that love allows us to see the world with a healing and whole lens too. When IU sings ‘all love wins’ in amongst the lyrics I got goosebumps. After all ALL love is love.
This MV for me was very much Art. And the song was so beautiful. Bravo IU and Tae. Thanks for this reaction! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Update: IU’s agency released an interpretation guide:
'''Square box' can be interpreted to mean discrimination against the protagonists, and furthermore, to mean various kinds of discrimination and oppression that are prevalent in our daily lives."
"2. KEY ITEM "Camcorder" Meaning
Next, there is the existence of the 'camcorder' that appeared in every pre-promotion content. The time setting in the video is the present, but the settings on the screen where the camcorder is recorded are the world that was intact before it was
destroyed. The lens of a camcorder is a love filter. It can also be seen as an important device that allows us to look beyond the inner or outer appearance of the characters and look at the beautiful things in the world. In the world of the camcorder, they are not as messy as in real life, but lively and well-groomed, eating delicious food prepared in a beautiful manner, and enjoying the happiness they have only imagined as they walk through many spaces in glossy dresses and tuxedos."
"4. Why wedding dresses and tuxedos? Last but not least, a wedding dress and a tuxedo. IU and V each picked out a weddipng dress and a tuxedo from the ruins.
Here, the wedding dress and tuxedo symbolize the most cliché,
"the fruit of love." In the movie, the two wear these clothes, take pictures, and have fun singing and having fun, all of which are difficult to do in everyday life, and enjoy happiness for a while. In the end, however, the bodies are destroyed by the squares, leaving only the clothes they were wearing. The two are implied to be lifted into the air in the final camcorder footage, meaning that they are free to fly free from all oppression and pressure. Crucially, the dresses and tuxedos falling from the sky also have the implication of questioning whether the forms that are considered meaningful and important in reality show their true essence?”
Till death do us part.....🥺🥺
In this video, the woman is mute, the man is blind in one eye. In my opinion, this video tells the story of their love life, which they are trying desperately to protect amidst various threats. This could also mean that their love is not approved by the world. but despite all the obstacles, love is all. love is everything. love always wins.
IU is different, I always say
get well soon😍
I'm crying. AGAIN
The credits say... Special Guest: The Cube
A big pile of cloths was in Spring Day MV... A BTS song... you may remember.😊
IU❤
So sweet and adorable how they pretend be happy at this setunion❤
It was truly amazing 😍...her voice is a balm for all wounds, the lyrics are inspiring, and her and V's visuals and acting are something special.💯💜
Did you know that IU is having a world tour this year? definitely go ;)
to be honest, I'm crying a lot bc this music video, yes it's just a music video! I know 😭😭 and their acting skill can catch me and take me to their world and the whole time....... and everything happen in 5 minutes!!! 😭
The remarkable thing about this marketing strategy (mv pre-released ahead of the streaming audio platform) is that the imagery of the mv will be forever burnt to the listener’s mind when they listen only to the song afterwards without the mv. Genius but not many artists can afford it.
For me this song is a hynm to love.❤❤❤❤❤❤
Are you going to IU world tour?
You're only the second reactor I've seen mention the special thanks to the cube 😂 thought that was hilarious.
BUT the MV and song together are SO haunting and sad. Beautiful but sad. IU and V's emotions blew me away. And their chemistry! 😮 Wow..
This song is so emotional😭
Se siente bien su manera de expresarse de el, me hace sentir mucha paz, tranquilidad, no me había sentido así antes, se ve muy honesto, eso me gusta
Wow, its the first time someone thinks its reminiscent of eight. I didnt feel that but interesting reaction.
기다리고 있었어요 아론
영화 감독,엄태화 감독의 뮤비 해석 가이드
1)추격하는 네모의 존재는 주인공들을 향한 차별이다.우리 일상에서 만연한 각종 차별과 억압을 뜻한다.
2)켐코더의 의미는 렌즈는 곧 사랑의 필터를 뜻하며 세상의 아름다운 것들을 바라볼수 있는 장치로 볼수 있다.
3)아이유는 말하지 못하는 이다. 아이유의 입술 피어싱은 세상과 온전히 소통하기에 어려움이 있다는 의미이다.
4)태형은 윈쪽 눈으로만 세상을 보는이.
디스토피아 세계관 생존기로 보여지는 이 뮤비에는 여러 상징이 존재한다. 두사람이 세상의 난관들을 헤쳐가기에 많은 어려움이 있을것으로.그려지며 그럼에도 이들은 서로를 의지하며 각자 상처를 입고 지친 상황에서도 끝까지 이겨내라고 한다.
5)웨딩드레스 턱시도의 의미는 사랑의 결실을 상징한다. 뮤비에서는 웨딩드레스와 턱시도를 입고서 사진을 찍고 노래를 하며 즐겁게 노는등 일상에서 하기 어려웠던 일들을 함께 하며 잠시나마 행복을 누린다.
6)마지막 켐코더 화면에서 이들은 공중으로 떠오르는 것으로 암시되는데,이는 온갖 억압과 입막음으로 부터 벗어나 자유롭게 날아갈수 있음을 뜻한다.
7)하늘에서 떨어지는 웨딩 드레스와 턱시도는 현실에서, 의미있고 중요하다고 여겨지는 형식들이 과연 참다운 본질을 보여주는가에 대해 질문을 던진다는 의미를 내포한다.
아이유는 원곡 제목인 Love Wins 를 성소수자 인권 증진을 위해 사용해온 문구를 사용했다,라는 논란이 터지자 곡 제목을 바꿨다.Love Wins All 누구도 상처되지 않고 곡의 의미가 전달 되기를 바란다며 뜻을 전했다.팬들에게는 사랑하기를 방해하는 세상에서 끝까지 사랑하려 애쓰는 이들의 이야기를 담았다.라며 손편지로 앨범의 관한 메시지도 전했다.
Actually that Line is Why must we be so together run away from the world.. Run on.. She breaks and sings the line in parts. So it's a longgg line😂💜 I'm absolutely in love with Love Wins All. Actor Taehyung nailed it. I hope we get a kdrama from V & IU when V comes back
I love the MV. IU sounds like a Disney princess. I would have loved to hear V sing with her. I couldn't listen to her alone 24/7.... though she sings beautifully, just not my style. Every-once in a while is perfect for me. Both did an amazing job acting!
💚I'm glad your health got better, but I'm heartbroken that you look so emaciated. 🎞I think this song is a message of appreciation and love to her fans. So cube is the part that gave her and her fans a hard time, and V is UAENA. V is a very scared character, and the last scene where V fights to protect her and She covers V eyes is really touching. Just thinking about it makes me cry. 🌵My favorite scene is a close-up shot of her eyes that looking at Cube at the end. It's as if she's saying that we're not afraid of you(cube) anymore. 🍒IU said, "Hate is always alone even when it's powerful. Love, on the other hand, stays with you until the end, even if it breaks and runs away." 🍏I hope Aaron gets well soon🍓💟Wow~ The behind-the-scenes video of this MV was posted on IU TV just now🍑
IU held a world tour concert.
I really hope you go to the concert
Wish you stay healthy! N hope you'll listen to IU & Kyungsoo (D.O.) singing Love Wins All together at her youtube show, 'Pallette' !!
I think the black people represents the haters. It actually tells that even if you become the one you want still some people will hate you and the way they are happily enjoying it tells that you should bot care about those as long as you are with loved one's. That's only my point idk about others
V's acting was impressive💜 This song and mv are so beautiful😍
My guess is that the stage in the concert and how it will be presented there will be very different and surprising.
Yes this was my first video of you, and tbh you’re too bland of a reactor. I didn’t see you being amazed or impressed about their acting, you mostly only talked about the music even though you said that the first time watching is to “focus” on the music video. You didn’t try to understand the story but just said that it looks like an acoplase, which is what everyone can guess.
However I didn’t want to be judgy, so I went to other videos, yet you’re still too bland. Almost quiet the whole time and only question things, like “What is this? What does this mean? Who is this?”.
Yeah no thanks, I don’t even get why people watch you.
Maybe you're right, his main interest is music tho not cinematography or video analysis
@@TRAD444 It doesn’t take a cinematography genius to make theories or try to talk a lil about the MV.
Awesome reaction. Thanks, suddenly I’m curious about your honest reaction for DPR Ian’s ‘Don’t Go Insane’ and ‘Limbo’. Thanks in advance.
Finally.......
I waited your reaction last days!!!!!😂
