Hello there, dear readers!
If you've managed to read everything (which was not a lot i was just exaggerating lol), congratulations, you've made it! ♥
Now, to translate my entire spazzing into a more profound way, the entire music video was a pure work of art.
The settings. The song. The genre. The costumes. The man himself. ((come on just admit it jaejoong's a fine work of art like dayummm))
First of all, the song is more of a j-rock-ish kind of genre instead of the mainstream k-pop songs we would usually listen to. Which is very impressive as it is something unique which stands out from the k-pop industry.
Many kudos to the CJES staffs for producing a magnificent work of art ((which SM would prolly puke blood all over))
As it is not obvious enough, the general theme for this video basically revolves around the goth & fantasy theme, with a number of symbolism here and there.
However, most importantly, the key message is more towards struggling and achieving freedom eventually. I'm pretty sure everyone would roughly have a grasp on what JYJ had went through over the years, trying to gain the freedom that they deserve but having SM to block their path.
Jaejoong loves to express himself. He has often been judged negatively, despite his true nature, as an individual and during the JYJ lawsuit. And with the recent case of the lawsuit finally ending after 3 years, he's bound to express all the emotions bottled up inside of him.
And what better way to express himself than through a music video and a solo mini album?
In one of the first few scenes of the video, we see Jaejoong being chained to a giant metal structure as he struggles to be free, which relates back to him being chained to SM (and probably everything else)
which later he broke free from it and dramatically throws the collar to the ground, signifying his sense of freedom.
Which brings us to the next scene.
In this scene, we see Jaejoong running towards a flock of crows. The fact that the crows are all similar and they're going to one direction can be a way of portraying himself going against the stream and doing something different. In addition, the fact that it's a slowed-motion scene probably hints that the process is slow and it can't happen in a blink of an eye. The angry-looking crows(idk they look angry to me crows always look angry to me dont judge me) can also represent the displeasing look or criticism he receives while going against the stream. (netizens... *shrugs* whatchu gonna do with them)
Last but not least, his diamond-masked scene.
Notice how we can't really see his face((wae you hide your beauty from usssss)) because his face is filled with the diamonds?
I was screaming and cringing over this scene because let's face it, i'm a obsessive fan who wants to flail over oppar's perfection. But how can i do that when i can't really see him with that bling bling all over his face?
And that's when it struck me.
A diamond-mask probably suggest a pretense mask ((lol duhh it's a mask))
A mask is normally used for disguise to hide your face. In this case, it's to hide Jaejoong's true self behind the diamond mask. And the fact that his mask is made out of diamonds suggests beauty, wealth and perfection. However, behind the mask, Jaejoong might be different, for all we know. Since most of the time we have been seeing him with the mask on.
In the music video, his expression also suggest a person being under hypnotized or controlled, with the snake crawling over his neck and shoulders.
The scene makes sense considering the control issues JYJ had with SM and how SM is always breathing down their neck.
The comparison of this scene can be made when we see Jaejoong half bare (with no snake ~controlling~ his movements) moving around freely and we can see his through self ((half naked coughs)).
Which is another suggestion to the main theme, freedom.
All in all, the entire album is a pure work of art.
No matter what we say about the music video, it's Jaejoong's damn music video and he can do whatever he wants.
We see how he have grown up from the scared innocent boy ((in the beginning of the video/lost in the snowy woods)) to the strong & confident man he is now, going against the netizens ((bcos they are mean people)) and probably still not caring what anyone thinks because he's a fucking sex god and can do whatever he wants
And yours truly even bought her own Jaejoong album!11!!! ((cue hysterical screaming and ugly sobbings))
Hence, my ~review~ on Jaejoong's album is doneeeee \o/
