MAMA 2019 BTS Live Performance Explained + Theory: JOURNEY TO MYSELF (feat. ATEEZ)

[@nurmawardah4543]

I really hope one day RM will do a final vlive explained all of their album theories from debut to final album. imagine how satisfied it feel when we all know the truth behind their album. ♡

[@cmterbush]

Omg, yes! That would be brilliant!

[@teamworkmakesthedreamwork_6211]

Yes, I like that :)

[@bookishtheories]

That would be great!! 💜😍

[@mimurosoop784]

This channel is criminally underrated, there are millions of us and yet their are only a few thousand views. She deserves so much love and appreciation. We should let new armys know bout her

[@book4319]

Thank you for your theories!!! Also not only perf of Ateez was connected with BTS, but TXT had the ETERNITY word on the book in the end. Eternal journey and Eternity? We already made theories about this book for TXT future comeback but it also interesting that they choosed this word for both groups! And I think that their logo is connected to Saturn and Time :)

[@lovelyy6491]

idk about the Ateez connection because i noticed many rookie groups are being SO inspired by BTS. idk who they were but a group resembled a lot of Fake Love's visuals at the MMA. so i just would go as far as linking BTS to TXT because i don't see Big Hit sharing BTS Universe with outsiders kdsjk

[@alexishayes713]

I saw what you did with the snake....AND I LOVE YOU!!!!!

[@bookishtheories]

Eheh :D 💜💜💜

[@aliceblack9712]

Thank you so much for the explanation! Are you going to do videos about TXT's MMA and MAMA?

[@bookishtheories]

I’m definitely planning something in the future! :D there are a lot of interesting details to analyse!

[@vindric8330]

So V is Apollo which symbolise extraversion and RM is Dionysus which symbolise as introversion then that would make sense why they have a violin (?) And a mic. A violin as a music played by the musician that's somehow proves V's extraversion which is Apollo. A mic can be use but I think what it means is the voice which from from the inside within you symbolises RM's introversion, Dionysus.

[@vindric8330]

I'm bad at explaining but I hope you all know what I'm trying to say. In music there is music that an artist made which is violin and a music that artist sing which is the voice. I think it proves your theory that V and RM is indeed related to Apollo's extraversion and Dionysus's introversion.

[@serialsleeper615]

Oh I really love your theories. Thanks for the hardwork😍💜

I’m definitely planning content on everything you mentioned! I’m also studying the Notes book and try to put everything together! And I’m trying to make sense of TXT’s storyline and connections with BTS as well! :D Also, I’ve been reading all your comments and I’m so grateful for you! 💜💜💜💜🙏🏻🥺 THANK YOU SO MUCH!! you’re always so supportive, your kindness encourages me to work hard! ☺️💜

Do you think there are any connections to the signs and animals of Astrology, as well?

[@bookishtheories]

That’s a great point actually! Totally possible! 👏🏻👏🏻

[@moqtada5370]

I think by the snake they meant mnet 🐍

[@marie.......]

wow i'm dumb haha

[@btxties3940]

I bet my ass BigHit was also involved in Ateez's performance! I mean they are not gonna let someone perform a BTS song on MAMA just like that... I literally thought that the second I heard BS&T. I don't think that BTS' and Ateez' story lines are connected in any kind of way (the way BTS and TXT are connected) but I firmly believe that BigHit took charge of their performance. It's probably also no coincidence that they performed BS&T. BigHit doesn't do random things.

[@bookishtheories]

That’s exactly what I think too!! I don’t think their storylines are connected (even if they have some themes in common) but I think BigHit approving ATEEZ’s performance is not random at all! It fits the concept they are foreshadowing far too well!

[@ennaklaire7363]

11:00 Yea thats right the snake represents grammy hehhe

[@zurafahisansharif4689]

If Ateez and BTS have planned this.... Could they really? I mean the background and stairs could be coincidences but BTS and coincidence are never in the same line

[@straykidsforlife8217]

DNA: None of this is a coincidence

[@justineedwardflores2026]

Yeah,these vid is just a theory,from others point of view...i wanna know the deeper meaning of their concept.and whoever conceptualize it from debut up to this days is such a genius

[@gabbyc3585]

Gosh just listened to Suga Interlude released by Halsey and when you said inner conflict... the goosebumps I got!!!

[@addyakhasne9853]

I did not expect ATEEZ to be in here.

[@andreaferrell6837]

I didn’t even make the ATEEZ/Oneus collab connection! It can’t be a coincidence...

[@jezelleperen7810]

[@drylandsurf]

aside from seeing the snake as part of dionysus,, my 1st impression was the logo of medicine 😅😅 thanks for the research... can hardly wait for their nxt album... the atteez part really surprised me 😅😅

[@Chill_Jill]

I saw the serpent as a sign of strength, power, danger and death.

[@bookishtheories]

There are so many meanings associated with the snake, I think your vision is perfectly plausible! :D after all we are on a healing journey, right? ☺️💜

Thank you for this, so excited! I mentioned you on a MMA reaction video. One of the commenters had mentioned the crown of Ariadne and I told them about this channel. Thier reply was "Yes! I subscribed yesterday." How cool is that? 2 of your subs commenting on the same reaction vid! I love your channel. I tell everyone in my comments here on YT about you. I love your theories, so intelligent and thoughtful and your voice is just amazing too, I wish you did audio books! Lol keep it up, I am so happy to see you gaining subscribers and doing so well. ARMY is here and I 💜 you! I even mentioned you to the Carl Jung In depth Psychology Group channel, Skip said he would check out your vids. He is awesome too, head over there for some awesome discussions on Jung. He too is a BTS fan now. So yeah, thanks again for these theories and have an awesome day!

@@bookishtheories thank you for all your efforts, you never disappoint! Thanks for your reply, it made me smile.

[@croissantdelune1]

I have been an ARMY for less than a year, and up until now I usually avoided the theories about BTS music and videos because it was always so complicated and difficult for me to understand. But just after the MMA's I found your theory videos about them, and I subscribed. I want to say "thank you" for doing this! It's still complicated, but you explain everything so clearly that it is easy to understand. It is so nice to have the explanations for the theories now and be able to delve into this side of BTS' music.

[@bookishtheories]

I’m so happy to hear that and welcome to the channel! 💜💜💜 There’s a lot of material to go through and BTS storyline is very difficult but I’ll keep working hard to explain it as best as I can! :D

[@pambarab5506]

Ha! I've been puzzled about the dolphin and lion (searching Jung) but didn't search Dionysus. Life just gets in the way and takes up so much of my time, when I want to be doing research! The ATEEZ performance just shook me! They have enough songs, why would they do a cover of BTS?

[@myxntzx]

I saw on twitter that 2013 was the year of the snake. Their debut year

[@farahhameed8515]

More artist to come on weverse: Ateez

[@angiedracul6562]

so am guessing they gonna go back in the old era & come back wtih their repressed shadow ver. of themselves & gonna say ... " see this what we are, we are not our PERSONA u see, we are 7 simple men who wanna eat,drink,date& have gf, so stop shipping us together so that we can also get on with our life too & make music along with it "........ if u love us enough then respect our wish to have a our own life too ..... until now IDOL image is to be in groups,not to get married/have gf/bf so that they won't loose FANS, BTS have changed so many things in IDOL image, may be they gonna change these cliche images as well, so that K-POP idols can have their personal life as well as make music .... just like western artists/ every other artists in rest of the world .....my brain is so fried up ..... just do the come back already my brain is about Explode !!!!!!!! oh my gosh

[@tessbalbacal6790]

[@adeloveschimmy3805]

The calling is becoming modern day heroes for people like me who need inspiration. The little universe that they have shared with us which inspired and healed will take us back to their past which will be reminder of what they have gone thru. Understanding and accepting your shadow allows one to move forward without forgetting the lessons learned.

[@bookishtheories]

Thank you so much!! I think the shadow concept will be quite dark but we should never forget that it’s a fictional representation of a journey :D It may be difficult to watch them play certain parts but at the end it’s part of an important story they are telling us! 💜

[@bookishtheories]

@@bookishtheories that would be helpful, thank you so much... so far, i have demian and memories,dreams and reflections (idk if the latter has something to do with their storyline/concept, but it's carl jung and it's bts, there must be some connections).

[@bookishtheories]

I have used Memories, Dreams and Reflections and found some interesting stuff in it, so I’m pretty sure the BigHit staff has it on their bookshelf as well :D I personally found Jung’s Man and His Symbols extremely useful. It explains many of the aspects of Jung’s overall ideology that the boys use as well! But if you really want to dive in I think the biggest influence behind BTS’s Jung-related symbolism is The Red Book. They reference it often in outfits and videos too. It’s a VERY strange book eheh super allegorical and very personal because it was also Jung’s personal dream diary and he wrote and drew it by hand. I’m still trying to get it at a good price because the full edition is quite expensive (where I live at least) but you can find some things online to get an idea!
