Seeing BTS' music - them discussing it boldly is a message that you have to acknowledge these parts of yourself, no matter how unwelcoming they may seem. They portrayed how one is lost on its own thoughts while in the shadow of success which is exhausting and blinding at the same time. Like what BTS have quoted from Martha Graham “a dancer dies twice – once when they stop dancing, and this first death is the more painful”īTS decided to discuss not the fear of lights dimming on their careers, losing fame or losing fans, but the fear of not creating music that touches people anymore. “Yeah you'll be at ease if you admit it too yeah succeed or fail, whichever way you flow Yeah you can't escape, wherever you go I am you, you are me, now you do know you are me, I am you, now do you know” - Shadowīlack Swan might not be a culmination of it all but it tells you that if in the middle of your lost thoughts (Suga’s Interlude) and you allow your self to be swallowed up by your shadow, you’re on your first death.
It’s terrifying and it can swallow you right up, but acknowledging your shadow might be the way to overcome these.
It discusses how all of these are part of the process, like how your shadow is a part of you. The circumstances offered to us are different, thus our way of coping might differ but one thing is for sure, music transcends to these differences. Nobody knows what one has to sacrifice to have it, and devastatingly, sometimes one has no choice but to sacrifice something he has because the situation entails so. While BTS' Interlude: Shadow talks about the dark side of success. “It may be different to what you were hoping for How you live on and how you love might change” - Suga's Interlude
It’s reassuring that even if things don’t go the way you planned it and this isn’t the future you had hoped for, life must go on. Suga’s Interlude discusses how one struggles into separating time and how one is stuck in between his lost thoughts. These seven young lads got the courage to go deeper to discuss thoughts that people would relate to and they have a cultured fan base that is more than willing to engage in conversations beyond music which is the human experience. Their music transcends through sounds that reach the level of human experience, whether be it good or bad. However, as the music of BTS evolves into art, they go in-depth with human agony and sufferings in which people don’t talk much about, but people succumbed into. These topics are mostly hard to discuss since most of us are repressing the thoughts of our fears and our dark selves in the innermost corner of our minds. Since this comeback season has started and the BTS members have been releasing music one by one, from Suga’s Interlude to Shadow, it is depicted that they are discussing their inner fears and inner “dark self”. In aboriginal folklore, a black swan symbolizes the path to enlightenment is not paved with gold, but often suffering instead. A corroboration how their music has been transcending to today's generation.Īs the title is Black Swan it has connections to many deep meanings, one is it’s a graceful reminder to move from any position where you feel powerless and at the mercy of external forces it is time to reclaim your personal power. BTS released their single "Black Swan" on January 17, 2020, and in less than a day without any promotion, it's topping charts.
