    BTW, I forgot to explain, but the scenes with all the women in red dresses - MINO is dressed as a king. The women are there to serve for the king, looking at their clothes, most likely sexual services. So the scene represents how MINO has all these women that are willing to satisfy him, however he wants THAT woman. The one that he feels is the one who can truly make him satisfied and full.

    “You’re my main and I’m your chewing gum” this is a metaphor that I’ve though about. Because chewing gum, it has a great taste until it doesn’t and basically when the taste disappears you spit your gum out. So basically the girl is his main lover and for her, mino is just a chewing gum and when his taste is over for her, she will throw him away. Its just a thought i had :)

      I also liked that metaphor but I thought it was more like mino saying that the girl, to him, is a full meal (main dish) and would satisfy his hunger. But him, to the girl, is only chewing gum which while tasty does nothing to satiate her hunger. So it's like he knows he can't satisfy her long term, because she eventually needs to eat real food.

    This is a great explanation. But tbh what really shocks me is the fact that Korean language has so many double meanings. Like, it depends soo much on the way you read a word or how you pronounce it. You can play with words as you like but there are cases when these kind of 'tricky' languages can put you in really awkward or even serious situations😅 Korean is quite difficult and challenging

    In the M/V, 1:46 he touched the blue ribbon woman face but remains silent. He doubts it bc he thought the woman left him for other man. He can't accept the reality. Or he just drunk and not concious about it. Or she was blind folded and Mino couldn't recognize her without her eyes but her figure felt so similar.
    The blue bird painting.
    It was crying as you can see the tear under the eyes. Now, the blue bird is the reference of the woman. So the woman is crying. One thing for sure, in her eyes there is reflection of Mino or all she think is Mino or maybe her thought fill with Mino. Whatever it is, she's crying about him. So, she decided to fly away.

      @blossicity Před 5 lety +7

      Being obsessed of his song, Being a Minnie shipper, And watching this video that explained the song, The comments and this comment that I am commenting to rn made me get my own theory, Your theory on how the girl thinks about Mino and stuff...Makes me realize more that "Fiancé" was about Jennie, As a Minnie shipper, They have way too much sweet stuff going on but we all know YG don't let their artists date but its obvious Jennie and Mino has feelings for each other especially Mino, Jennie tries to kinda keep her feelings but still comes out by stealing glances and stuff, Anakne or Anangnae can be My woman, Fiancé and woman that is taken by another man, By the last one, He might be talking about how Jennie was taken by her fans, Jennie has feelings for Mino but YG is very strict and has rules and Jennie is scared on how Mino can get bashed or she can get bashed, So they interact in a way where they wouldn't really get obvious... There's a feeling where I feel like they are dating especially after both of their solo debuts came out but they try to hide it because of company and fans but Mino kind of wants to show it but he knows he can't so he just shows hints....The woman in his M/V looked kinda similar to Jennie, I just had to mix all the stuff I watched and read....It all adds up now...Its so obvious its about Jennie.

    When I was a translator in the fanpage, it took me 6 hours to translate one of his songs Shoot (with the notes about double meanings) into my language 😂 When Danny said "It took 10 hours." I was like "I feel you Danny, I feel you." 😂 First of all, thank you so so much for your efforts Danny 🙏 None of ICs couldn't dare to translate this because of rap lyrics and not to lead anyone misunderstandings. And it didn't surprise me. Song, all things in happened lyrics and music video... Because this is Song Mino and everything related with Song Mino is like a piece of art. You can find so many things if you look from different aspects.

    In my personal interpretation of the song, I think MINO is referring to his own fiancé. In the MV, MINO is shown as a king (who usually have several queens and women that are only allow a relationship with king). One of his fiancé or a lady who ended up marrying with him bc of the situation was staying still (not letting him in to her boundary) Now, she was in love with other guy so she escaped from his kingdom. This makes more sense for the finding hide & seek part and the “blue bird” quotation. As the song hits the climax the king (MINo) is frustrated & sexually craving that he says sth like “where my bxxxxes at Fiancé”
    It was fun bc depending on your perspective you can see both a really pure boy who loves someone’s fiancé or a corrupted king who lost one of his fiancé

      Multifandom trash if you look at the Hangul for his solo music and basically music in general Minho uses 미노 - MINO not 민호 - Minho so its is pronounced M-eye-no not min-ho. Also he introduces himself in songs as M-EYE-NO much like ZI-A-CO (Zico)

I think it was shortened from song minho to mino from his debut, and then he just like to call himself as 'maino'. I just think that is how it progressed.

    the way i understood the blue bird part is this way : since mino is obsessed with blue roses and likes them for their meaning as symbolizing the impossible and the unattainable. Calling her ''my blue bird'' is like calling her impossible and unreachable. and there is this scene where mino was in the eye of a crying blue bird (he drew that bird on the wall himself btw) which shows his weeping for the impossible lady.

    Can I just say...that I'm am soooooooo mf-in thankful that you told us the name of the song that was sampled in Mino's song!!! You saved me A TON of time that I would've spent researching (cutting a clear sample, Shazaming, looking up the credits for the song, etc...). You are amazing. Subbed. Thank you!

      Lol nope. Blue bird symbolizes happiness so in my opinion he's using the term to mean he's looking for his happiness or looking for the woman aka his happiness. It could be interpreted either way.
