There is lots of biblical references in this!! The Noah's Ark with the animals in Namjoon's part, the crown of thorns on Jungkook's hand and him in the river reminded me of the baptism at the Jordan river. There is something called the seven trumpets in the book of Revelation and Jungkook blowing the horn signifies the start of apocalyptic events and you can actually see shots of dark skies and the volcano erupting after that. Years of Catholic school drilling the bible into my head was actually useful LOL.

[@Juan-hv9bi]

Jungkook is calling the angles!

[@justdavid_92]

wow i go to church and honestly i noticed sth with the thorns and water, but wouldnt have guessed that much! + if they did really touch on the Bible im really surprised cuz i would assume they wouldnt want to associate themselves with a particular religion.

[@guccitae8416]

just want to mention that this is an assumption i myself didnt make biblical connections except noah's ark i mostly saw dystopian novel references

@@justdavid_92 dont worry im not a practicing catholic but i think they didnt do anything disrespectful here if that's what you're worried about! there is lots of references to dystopian novels/movies that i caught too like the maze runner, bird box, divergent and a bit of the hunger games !!

[@jamesrawlins735]

Absolutely - so much symbolism - and I just realized that Jin is once again the center - Jin the Time Traveler/parallel went back in time and saved everyone again - but unlike previous times he also seems to be happy this time

[@radhabennaik-ackermann1545]

I know a lot of people are saying Jin went back in time and saved everyone. I don’t think he went back to the past. I think the people who gather are the remaining ones after the war. I know in the past the storyline had him going again and again to change the outcome but if you remember he didn’t succeed, something or another went wrong. In the opening scene, Jin is kneeling in front of a bird that has been shot by an arrow. He brings it with him in a cage hoping to save it but thinks it is dead. He covers the cage with the dead bird, but is surprised that it’s alive when the cage moves. This shows the fighting spirit of BTS as people try to bring them down. Tae is lying down as if tired with a girl blindfolded sitting next to him most likely symbolizing the fact that the world puts a blindfold on to ignore the tiredness of the poor. When he notices the girl with the blindfold the big gates start to open showing a better future ahead. When humanity takes off it’s blindfold good days are ahead. Jimin seems to be the narrator. Of the whole thing showing the viewer the prejudice against the “different”. Different looks, different races, different likes, different anything...and in this case with the drums different music. One of the commenters pointed out to me how my initial “different” wasn’t clear enough so editing to make my point clear. RM is in front of the shipwreck with the animals I think to show the burden on his shoulders of being the leader. Having to always make sure that the members and ARMY are ok. It’s a heavy burden sorta like Noah having the burden of saving the world. J-hope is showing how even when all looks dead that may not be the case as he sings a bird flies Suga is shown with a bunch of followers (ARMY) who are there to support regardless of the circumstances which look very bleak. Jungkook is shown running from the prison (he looks back at a formidable structure as he is running) of fear, negativity and self doubt with his hands bound by thorn shackles which are very painful. Even if he wants to freak free he can’t cause the thorns prevent him as they cause more pain. He walks into the water which gives him respite and he is able to take of the shackles. He then blows the horn symbolizing victory against all prejudice, negativity, fear, etc Jin releases the bird showing freedom from prejudice. Jungkook then joins the rest who have gathered at the gate looking towards the better future. RM being the leader raises his fist and the parched broken earth begins getting life. They then proceed to the other side. Showing how BTS has been fighting prejudice and is now rising to the top. No more dream I believe references their past when they were no bodies, now it’s just dream cause they have achieved it. I got this from the MV who knows if it’s right. The life of an ARMY, guessing and reguessing what you see.

[@LUNAGRL27]

Yep Joshua Tree National Park it’s pretty there

[@JoobieLoobieSoobie]

@@justdavid_92 Not even close to looking like Joshua trees. They look like bristlecone pines, and you can see the real ones in the Owens Valley region of California, east of Yosemite and west of Death Valley. I am not exaggerating when I say it's one of the most breathtaking regions on Earth. I spend a lot of time out there. The bristlecone-looking trees in the video are CGI, though. Sorry. The real ones don't grow near grass, and they have branches and pine needles. They grow in scrub land high up in the Sierras, the Inyo, and the White Mountains. The real ones look even cooler than the ones in the video. To get there from LA you drive east and then north, up Highway 395. It will take you about 3-4 hours by car. From SF you go through Yosemite and then south on 395. It is DEFINITELY worth the effort. I do think they probably filmed in and around the area, and then CGI'd other stuff. The colors of the dirt and the sky and the meadows match Owens Valley perfectly. FUN FACT: The oldest living thing in the world is a tree in Bristlecone Pine Forest. Its location is a secret and only a handful of scientists know which tree is the one. It's fun to go hiking there and guess where it is. I would be happy to show you around up there next time you are in LA!

Jungkook’s scene was a reference to “lord of the flies” it’s a book about boys losing their innocence and youth due to the circumstances they’re in, I’m currently reading that book and I was really surprised to see him doing that scene and blowing the conch. If you look at the smoke in the back of the river, that’s a direct reference to the book because a plane crash is the whole reason why the young boys are stranded on this island. Really cool and such a coincidence that I’m reading that book rn,

[@Whyyougottabethisway]

Actually, Tae seems to be representing a Christ figure -- from his pose to the his absorption of darkness (the thing on his neck). This also is a reference to the child from Omelas -- one who has to suffer for others' happiness. And Jin's action are mimicking his protection of the flower in Fake Love. In this, the lone surviving bird is something he protects in the cage and, I believe, it represents hope/love/dreams. He lets it loose into that barren land that later flourishes. They move from No More Dream to Dream. There are so many other call backs to their storyline that I can't quite process it all.

[@ann-fu6lp]

The question is...what does this all even mean?? Bts never fails to deliver the deepest stuff lol

Guys Jungkook is the freaking bird Jin freed

[@azthericedumpling]

For God's sake that is so reasonable

can you explain why that is?

[@sWEEc]

I agree, especially since the pigeon is shot in the beginning and Jungkook dies behind Hoseok. But we know that Jin has the power to rewind time based on the previous MV's and also the webtoon. So when they all find the gate and release the pigeon it is Jungkook being released finally. And what would make extra extra extra more sense would be for Jungkook to be the child from Omelas being held hostage and that he's freed at last. Edit: gate

[@viively7]

[@ruthlessrays9761]

Dove is a symbolism for freedom. This is low-key connected to *The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas* where the boy is trapped inside while the utopia is a happy place because of the suffering of the boy. Here you can see the boy, Jungkook finally escaping that harsh society with the rest of the members, the ones who walk away from Omelas.

[@normancross1515]

David, If you look carefully at the beginning I believe you see that what Jin is looking at is a dove that has been shot with an arrow (not a message on an arrow). In successive scenes you see Jin carrying the Dove, placing it in a cage and covering it, carrying it to the border wall (which has opened), opening the uncovered cage, and the resurrected Dove flies out and away. Jungkook's bonds are washed away in the freedom of a flowing stream. We saw those tattooed throats of the "puppets" in "The Untamed" (most notably on Wen Ning) that you see on V. What was Wen Ning's curse? When you figure this all out, let me know. 😀

[@anveshikakamble3717]

Theory: So basically the past where they were told not to dream anymore is gone . The last cliff symbolises BTS reaching towards their only " dream" but the mv cuts before they all reach the top this symbolises that they are stopping anytime soon and there is more hope as the cliff is not their only limit.

[@liyana_sadalee1662]

[@Whyyougottabethisway]

I can't get over all the thematic ties to their storyline. Like in every way. And how this is about finding hope/love/dreams after devastation, moving from No More Dream to Dream. And the joyous look on JK's face at the end -- oh, my heart! - Jin saving the final living bird in a single cage -- mimicking the flower in the lantern in Fake Love -- and releasing it as a symbol of that hope/love/dream to replenish a barren land. - Tae as a Christ figure, absorbing others' darkness (spidering on his neck) and representing the child from Omelas. - RM as Noah after the flood, unsure how to rebuild a devastated world. There's so much more -- too much to take. I can't with these guys, right now. I just can't.

[@roxanmacaraeg3931]

from what i think: the bird,the bald drummer boy,jungkook's endless running away,v with girl,rm with the animals,jhope with the thorns(i think) and suga i think its sort of a religious group represents their inner selves. then beyond the wall is new life that is waiting for them that needs to face,a real and yet beautiful life to explore.then in able to surpass those wall they need to surpass their shadows that's why jk blew that shell to warn the shadow that i'am ready to face you,where the dancing seems like their fighting and the shadows fought back and yet they won over their shadows.and after that the big wall opened.shows that they slowly won the fight over their shadow and slowly plants grew and become greener and jin let the bird fly to explore and fly freely.and then rm thinks that they are ready for another journey so they went outside and climb to the rock formation that signifies that they are ready to lead they dreams.that this is their dream,their way.and its happening and their making it to happen. hope it makes sense😁

"Pride rock" would then be the final goal of recognizing SELF and accepting all of the other pieces as part of you.

Ooo, nice call back! I can definitely see it too 😯

[@rini5557]

WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THIS

[@Whyyougottabethisway]

I actually think that child from Omelas is Tae. Over and over again in their comeback footage (starting with the MMAs), he's always in the background hiding a grim expression. Here he's laying down in the Christ pose and absorbing darkness (the thing on his neck). This ties into the child from Omelas suffering for other's happiness. He also takes off the little girl's blindfold and shows her what is really going on. I think Jungkook's behavior in this links back to Blood, Sweat, and Tears where he is tempted by the darker side of humanity. Here he gets "baptized" in a way, and the thorns binding his hands turn into a trumpet to sound off for change. His past is part of him, but there is hope and his lets out a rallying call to dream once again.

[@xstoofpeer]

@@Whyyougottabethisway I love your interpretation. The lyrics also make sense 'my everything.... my blood and tears... got no fears' could be him accepting his shadow and all parts of himself. He gets relieved of his burden or 'prison' and can reach his full potential

[@dollofvoodoo]

It was a dove at the beginning with Jin. Jungkook is running. Jin takes the bird back and covers it. Notice the cage move and Jin out the window, flash to Jungkook running again. During Hobi's part, Jungkook was laying in the grass "dead" with a crow on him. If you noticed when Jungkook opened his eyes, they were black. Jin releases the dove and Jungkook is back with the other members. The seven doves fly over them as they're climbing up. No More Dream is all about the group telling fans to follow their own dreams rather than fall prey to society’s expectations. The beginning of their journey. Dream where they're at now. ON talks about how they have all of this pressure and uncertainty, but are not giving up or giving in. Basically, if they had listened to all of the haters putting them down, saying they wouldn't amount to anything they wouldn't be where they are now. You can try and knock them down, but they're not going to listen, they're going to fight it and keep on achieving.

[@yoongiinfiresme4571]

I honestly interpreted this whole video, if we are going by Jung's theory, as an inner war and how there's this constant fight between their inner demons, they use clear references made throughout all types of films as well as written material as metaphors for this inner struggle. The opening scene I believe to be a showcase of the consequences what could happen if one doesn't truly accept all sides to themselves (both the ego and shadow), Jin "mourning" the dove is, in my opinion, how the person feels that they've lost their inner peace. The part with Jimin is still not entirely clear to me yet, however I immediately thought of the movie "The boy in the striped pajamas (set in Nazi German times), the child represents how we can sometimes feel as prisoners within our own minds and the drum he holds i believe to be ones identity, all the discarded drums are the identities "masks" that we have used and thrown away throughout time. V lying next to the blindfolded girl, which is definitely referencing Birdbox, showcases how we choose to remain blind to our inner demons and wish to remain innocent to others' demons as well. RM is depicted in front of Noah's ark and how it seems to be shipwrecked, which although i don't think they are referencing the bible directly I think it symbolizes how faith can be used as a cover for some people's demons and how they run from them by using religion to hide behind. (Please don't come at me but this is all my own interpretation). All other references are expansions of these thoughts, I could go on about each scene but i'd be here whole night lol. Sorry for the long comment but definitely got lost in this one, my philosophical heart is pumping wildly with this MV!!!!

What I understand about this mv "Every apocalypse/disaster/obstacle we gonna be more stronger to strive" or "do not let anything pull us down..war or disease or disaster whatever it is we always find a solution/fight to survive”

[@yoongiswife6173]

Some members of BTS: We have no religion Also BTS: okay it’s time to open the holy bible SEE YOU IN THE HOSPITAL CO ARMYS!! I know we all are overdosing with how good this is.

[@jvsiwaten9983]

Has anyone else realised their first song was No More Dream. I am guessing that now that they are humble and free the live and dream freely, because in their first song they were hardcore and dark, this song is humble and calming, they are happy and free.

[@anasanchez8812]

David no a dove symbolizes peace 😂

[@justdavid_92]

dove and pigeon are the same in Korean lol sorry :(

[@anasanchez8812]

justdavid no no oh my god don’t apologize it was funny 😂 since in the states it’s just the annoying bird that wants to eat your pretzel crumbs

[@innocente92]

Yeah I feel ya David. Pigeon and dove are the same in Spanish too lol

[@justpurplethings8175]

Doves symbolize peace, pigeons are generally considered messengers.

[@Mahoragabangtang1441]

RM: I love pigeons, I like peace😁😁😁🤭🤭🤭

[@BangPDsMom]

Anybody else remember Jungkook blowing the conch on Bon Voyage 2nd season Hawaii? Also he was Poseidon at the MMAs 2019.

[@heyitsmejp]

On Namjoon’s part, the first time I saw it, I screamed, “They went back in time to Noah’s ark?!” 👀. David you cracked me up though 😆

[@hawelquinn1129]

I think it's about reviving themselves and the ARMY. Like RM has said in recent interviews, they went through a period where they were felt lost, where there were good and bad times, and now with this album they have accepted all that and have decided to continue fighting to get to the 'paradise' they originally dreamt of.

[@Lina-yq9tn]

When the giant door opened I was like : *Ohhh ATTACK ON TITANS!!*

[@kunoichihawaii146]

Holy Shit, I thought that too🤣

[@mommadream1230]

Yes Jin went back in time and saved everyone including the bird on the arrow. These videos are better than going to the movies.

[@nikkirene4862]

The only question you asked I can answer is V's neck. He thought it was a cool idea, asked permission to do it and got it. He posted pics on Weverse.

[@AnaAFITeam]

Jin tried saving Junkook (pingeon - like simbol) many times and failed everytime but did not give up. Junkook get rid of thorns and find the conch and blows it. Its an announcement of hope and life changing. Many simbols, RM - Noah and the arch, the girl has the gate in front but she couldnt see it, and nowbody else, until V helped her - is only a simbol again. The epic scene with fire... just to make a deepest difference, that look so dark and the light after is more bright. Even the last seven flying pingeons, are they BTS. And you can find more watching and watching...

[@aari9756]

All this while I was waiting for your reaction. I love your reactions they are the most genuine. + OMG!!! Thankyou for replying, gosh I got commented by my favorite youtuber IM SOOO HAPPY😭!!!!

[@justdavid_92]

thank you :)

[@ElwoodShort]

I was thinking about the symbolism here, and suddenly I thought, wait, what if this is about the division between North Korea and South Korea. The battlefield representing the “sleeping” war [I I can refer to it as such] the wall representing the border walls, Jungkook perhaps a fleeing defector, and the gate opening representing hopes for free travel between the two countries. Certainly the dead dove [peace] becomes resurrected and flies through the newly opened gate. I also see BTS themselves continuing to move upward, reaching for the clouds, so mybe this shows a determination to continue seeking dreams. No more dream, passes away, and only dream is left, a suggestion, that they are living in th dream now, and the seemingly impossible, is possible. Place that sentiment back into the context of division and the hope for unity that some feel, and this could be an amazing Message. But I’m not Korean, so it’s pure theory.

[@prithasarkar]

"how many movies am i naming?" me : same

[@rainbowromancelove]

the bird is jungkook. when the cage moved, jin knew hes alive. and jk comes back alive (go fly bird go free. dont be tied down) as a new him and calls everyone to say BRING IT ON!!! smirk and they are not afraid of pain anymore.

I wished I could like it more than once- and that’s only how I was feeling listening to your intro

[@hyunbyungkang4376]

Let's talk about David too.. He looks great with this hairstyle ... Love it .. BTS is always make me say WOW!!!! all the time they came out

[@numrah511]

RM was infront of Noah's Ark i think.

[@a.a.9457]

I though that... but there isn't 2 of every animal... so maybe he's just Dr. Doodle. 😁

[@numrah511]

@@a.a.9457 AHAHA! Good observation 😂 and i just gave a random guess cause this MV is really deep, and according to RM "harder" 🙂 but i trust FBI ARMYs to have all the answers in coupla days tops 👍

[@ewill6365]

Everything about this video was beautiful, the scenery, the music, the song, their voices, their faces. It all reminded me of my many dreams. If you asked me to describe any of them you would probably be as confused as I am when I wake up. In the end, it says "No More Dream" Yep, this could have been very similar to one of my own. I still loved every second of it though and am waiting for someone much more discerning than myself to help me better grasp its message. Think I'll watch it again and pay closer attention to the lyrics.

[@cherrydoughnut5386]

ARMY2019: oh my my my ARMY2020: hey Na na Na

[@yvje81]

I was confused too 🧐💜. But ARMY is a big help 🤣. I'm just reading a lot of reactions everywhere! Thank you all 🥰💜. And thank you for your reaction!! It is always a pleasure to watch your channel :)

[@emilyvivian2852]

when jungkook was running up the mountain i thought he’d jump off the edge

[@ninixsuzen650]

Two words for BTS" PERFECT AND THE BEST"

[@glossya6117]

ok but can we just appreciate how good david looks here!

[@KookSlash]

The bird that flew at the last time was 7, because one of it(represented as jungkook) was healed and released by seokjin. From this we see other scene Jungkook releasing ties in his hands so he could gather with the other 6 members again and they are 7 until now.

[@jessicaperez9303]

Notice how when they're walking up the lion king rock 7 doves fly obove them

[@rmarie6764]

I'm so glad you said "shipwrecked." So many are saying Noah's Ark and I truly do not think that's it. If we go by movie themes, it reminds me of Swiss Family Robinson, that would also explain the animals. Also shipwrecked would symbolize being lost and helpless. Something I think BTS has been conveying. That they've been lost and felt helpless trying to find themselves, but now they've found who they are.

[@marimiliadsl3113]

Jin takes a pigeon killed by an arrow from the field, takes it to his own home in a cage, then you see that pigeon revive, then let go outside the wall... Or is it inside the wall? And it reminded me of Jin's time control powers. And each of them seems to be in a different place and time!

[@abbyllamas423]

I've been looking for clues that will relate to their old MVs. Hahahahaha

[@jstc9275]

Jungkook running away from that big wall in the beginning also kinda gives me Attack on Titan vibes.

[@jotiss9383]

Army's fighting... Let's work hard

[@yourrandomaddiction3534]

I think it's life after war. It's like they have different pain when alone but together they can do something but at the end there's still conflict right? So it means that even they are together, there's still pain, but they can overcome it. Typicial the story of the life of BTS. Always in a war, there's peace together, but still targetted by... you know. But with ARMY, nothing is impossible- it's the scene where they will go inside the maze full of trees.

[@alicja7340]

I just see religious references in this MV 😂💕

[@witcherye]

bts is so cool. when you think you have unraveled their entire universe, another mv appears to make you confused, prove that you are wrong and that you NEED TO THINK AGAIN

All the 12 year olds spamming "no emojis" under the comments are so annoying. :/

[@B7S.ARMY-BORA7AE_]

I made a comment with an emoji over there, and I got the "no emoji" response. I didn't even consider deleting it and just left it there. Policing the comments over viewership and streaming just feels so...not sincere.

[@nachruf]

@@B7S.ARMY-BORA7AE_ Yeah. And there is no reason to why emojis would affect views.

[@shawna_kpoplove_86]

I thought the same thing when I saw that Volcano in the background. I got major Lord of the Ring vibes in most of this video. This was one of their best M/V by far. Loved and still love it!!

[@suhanipathak8443]

DAVID YOU DONT GET TO ASK ME WHAT HAPPENED I'M RELYING ON YOU TO TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED

[@btsisthecauseofmyeuphoria7318]

The bird with Jin represents Jk. First he thought that Jk was dead but then the cage started shaking which made Jin realise he still had life in him. He takes care of the cage and then when he frees the bird Jk suddenly appears with them At 5:32 we can see seven birds which proves the theory more. Jk then sees that he can finally fly (lead as we then see him in the center which means he is the leader) when he looks at the sky at the bird without any injury flying and starts running towards the cliff
