FAKE LOVE extended version tells us more about the emotional depth of each character, and the emotional change while transitioning to adulthood by going through a certain darker phase.
The extended version gives us a wider perspective of the cause of their heartbreaks, and the want of shutting off #fake_love
The first phase is in wings, blood sweat and tears that tells us about youth's temptation. They got into DNA, a phase of youth's childish love. After that, they got into a much mature phase, which was told in fake love. Coming of age story, get it?
Seokjin usually open curtains. But here, he who fears situations that are out of his control, shuts the curtains one by one. The door, the room, and even put the smeraldo flower in a safe place. He wanted to protect himself #fake_love
He protecs the smeraldo flower since it also resembles the event connected to the girl in highlight reel before she died. He wanted to give the girl just that, but she died right in front of his eyes. The flower was his last memory of her that he wanted to protect #FAKE_LOVE
SEOKJIN, 15th August Year 22
notes of love yourself: her
"The flowers had to be real. There was only one. Because I wanted to make that person happy. Because I wanted to make that person smile" (referring to the girl) #FAKE_LOVE
The flower also means 'the truth untold'. Which is in one of their tracklist. What's the truth? the fact that they cant show them their real selves, and give themselves.
"You know that I cant, show you me, give you me. I can't show you a ruined part of myself" #FAKE_LOVE
Waterfall means 'purity'. This could be an entrance of another phase after fake love. It could be an entrance that leads us to LOVE YOURSELF: ANSWER, where "answers" will be revealed #FAKE_LOVE
Like I said before, fake love was another phase after the 'DNA' phase. Where youth thinks that love is perfect, enjoying the pleasure and the temptation that was potrayed on blood sweat and tears, not even knowing that there are other sides of it, the other sides of love.
Cloaks are talismans and protection from harm, keeping one safe and secure throughout 'transitions'. The masks symbolises hidden identities. Black cloaks also represents death. NOBODY DIED, but what died? their true selves
THE MASKS they were all wearing is venetian masks called the larva or in other words, the volto. The word "larva" means mask and ghost / spirit. Going back, the masks goes well with the black cloaks since the cloaks are also talismans of spiritual journeys #FAKE_LOVE
JUNGKOOK has always been the last on going through phases, its probably because he's the youngest. The place is a desert, desert also symbolises obstacles and hardships between people and their dreams. The hardships of their relationships can be seen in the hyyh notes #FAKE_LOVE
Pathway from dna phase, and pathway out from the fake love phase towards the waterfall of 'truth', entering the 'LY: ANSWER phase'. But they never made it out, because of the gigantic rock that fell in front of them #FAKE_LOVE
I got tagged to some theories that says the phase of fake love is actually inside the key box of Jungkook's. Unfortunately, i DONT agree with that. It makes more sense that it was a phase after the dna phase.
Ending of euphoria prologue it says "형, 그게 다예요? 우리한테 숨기는 거 더 있지 않아요?" which means - "Hyung, is that all? Is there something else youre hiding from me?". I said it before, Jin has high protective tendencies, especially to Jungkook, the youngest #FAKE_LOVE
Everyone has their fear room, and Jungkook has one too. It was Seokjin's room after chaos. There it was seen six empty coat racks that represents six of his hyungs. Six empty coat racks that represents a possible 6 empty memories after the accident #FAKE_LOVE
At the end of the MV we can see clearly that the seven of them are trying to go to the next phase. They couldn't, not with that mask - wanting to hid themselves (thats why the rock went down). Jungkook and Yoongi both kneeled down - we will get the answer why on LY:ANSWER

At first I thought, why a tiger? tigers symbolizes a lot of things. Tiger brings you courage to face unconscious feelings of being threatened and the power to go through life obstacles.
Look at the reflection. Doesn't it look like the tiger is walking on water?
Trivia means little known details regarding something. There are 3 trivias: Just Dance, Love, Seesaw. It could be done by the rap line (since the vocal line have solos) or subunits from the last concept photo.
THEY CHANGED THE 8TH STORY TODAY! IT WAS DIFFERENT FROM LAST YEAR'S POST. SEOKJIN DIDNT PREORDER THE SMERALDO FLOWER, WHICH MEANS HE WONT MEET THE GIRL WITH THE FLOWER, WHICH MEANS THE GIRL HASN'T DIED. HE TURNED BACK THE TIME.
I'll make things easier to understand.
Last year bighit posted a total of 12 stories of testesso's (the florist) on flowersmeraldo's official site but closed it directly before love yourself: her's release.
If you see on seokjin's note on 15th August Year 22 from love yourself: her, he did went into the flower shop to preorder the flower like how it was written from the blog. There was his signature, order details and everything, but what about now? everything is gone.
Everytime seokjin travels in time, he always end up at the same room. From previous notes, he was unable to remember anything resulting in often-time travels. Time travels creates loops. What he created was endless.
From the previous note, it was stated that seokjin had found his fathers' letters of past regrets. He wanted jin's "youth" when his father didnt had the chance to have his. Making seokjin lose his own "control" over his life, youth, and choices. He was his father's puppet.
— namjoon gathers the other six for a two night trip at yongju pines. he gets various of disturbing messages days before the trip that left him bewildered. his life and others' are in your hands.
01 - i've done previous polls where you guys will decide the main character. the hyung line won the first poll, and kim namjoon won the second poll. you guys will are able to choose decisions, but there will be some automatic decisions based on namjoon's charater and personality.
A theory of bangtan's most recent instagram post. if you dont like theorists who overanalyzes things, this might not be the theory for you sksksk @BTS_twt#BTSPROMPARTY
MEANINGS
오늘 ➡ today
오 ➡ five (number)
늘 ➡ always
과거와 미래를 ➡ the past & future
과거와 미래를 잇는 ➡ connecting the past and future
Similar? the concept of "connecting future and past" could link to jin's theory of time travel or his wishes to turn back time as how it was stated on the last video of highlight reel. More of, "why did it happen this way? Did i do something in the past?" ➡ connecting events
