(Warning ! this is fan girl account . Not objective. Strongly personal I will try to cut down “OMG” and “Wow “ to the minimum )
It is not my thing to write reviews or interpretations but I cannot help it this time. Blue and Bad Boy had really good videos but it is FANTASTIC BABY, I want to write about .When I first saw it I was in a strong fangirl happiness shock for I don’t know how long. The video might be weird for some people, but perhaps because it is weird that I like it !
There are 3 things that stroke me in this one (without mentioning the high quality of the production, the great colors and so on ) and that I want to write about .
1. Damn, there was so much skin !
I think BIGBANG have never shown so much skin in one video … like ever! They didn’t have to do it, to still be very charming, appealing and sexy. But this time we had our overdose of fan service and I must confess – I love it !
Taeyang – we have seen him shirtless before countless of them. He is too hot to need any clothes, right haha . But in this video he was so fierce! The tattoos gave him this badass look that combined with his anger, determination and confidence made him look so … strong and wild ( and sexy of course ) ! Strong in sense of invincible . His look was so “don’t mess with me “. Even when he was standing still , his eyes were full of fire . The Sun God – wise and strong , but with no mercy for who stands against him ! hahah
He was different, if you see what I mean. The typical sunglasses were gone. That was one new Taeyang with fierce eyes, moves and voice! I totally love his part in the song . It might be one of my favorite parts. His vocals are just hitting the right place.
Daesung – well here is the place where !OMG ! must be added . We have seen pics of shirtless Dae , so we know he is well built but THIS ! This I didn’t expect it , honestly ! In one scene he is this wild person tied to a wall ( I guess many people dreams came true ! haha ) and in the next we have him super elegant , super handsome in this blue suit . Daesung , you almost gave a heart attach to half of your fans ! I just love you more and more and more ! I am so glad you are back !So , Daesung shouldn’t run away next time Taeyang tries to undress him on stage . He should proudly show what he has hahah ! ( I am joking here )
Seungri – he gets all the girls in this one ! Damn , little boy , you are so not a boy anymore !
He is flirting with the camera so well ! His looks are improving by the day, really ! I think he was equally sexy just showing skin under the jacket/coat. Ok , I will not say more cause I might get off topic …
G-Dragon – well … he showed his bared shoulders! He was just looking super cool , no matter if you like his hair or not . I mean GPunzel rocks the night !
TOP – the only time you can see Top showing skin is in your dreams , girls ! But is this one of the reasons I like him so much ? Anyway – he is so handsome here that I am totally satisfied with him … well , the curls were a little funny , but it is ok . I have some weakness towards French general or what ever it is clothes style and seeing this on TOP just made my day …. Ok , lets move on before I get stuck on TOP , haha
2. The interpretation
This video has a lot of symbolism but I won’t pretend I understand it all. I will just tell you what I think . It is a tricky thing to interpret things , cause you might get yourself giving a meaning to something that they decided to make just randomly or for artistic purpose .
So here is the story – BIGBANG were in a frozen state . They were put on a hold . We all know that . After last year scandals they had to keep low profile and stop all their activities .
The society/the haters / some medias were telling them “don’t come back yet “ , “stay away “ and so on . Basically the “army” with the “stop the music” signs were the ones who wanted to keep BIGBANG on a hold and not let them come back .
But BIGBANG are awake now , they defrost and come back alive . Ready to fight back for their music .
There is the rebellion. The people who rebel are the BigBang army . They might represent the VIPs themselves – the one who fought to have their music back , to have BIGBANG back .
So there is the battle field ,and GD is there , wounded , but leading the fight .
Taeyang is …praying ? But looking quite angry and ready to “fight for his rights “ .
Daesung had been chained – yes , he spent most of the last year , hidden , “chained” , in pain . But he is now trying to break trough, to get free .
What about TOP ? He is also a general in this battle … but there is something funny I was thinking about . Actually TOP spent most of the last year doing commercials and being on the cover of the magazines . Here again we have him , changing frames and being “piece of art “ .
Ok , so what about Seungri ? He was socializing with hot girls , who were fighting over him? I am joking ! He is all in scars . He must have been hurt badly as well .
Daesung is out of chains , looking cool , checking the battle field , fully recovered .
Actually I read somewhere that the fact he is surrendered by cars refers to his car accident .
This thing on GD’s mouth is ... a. purely for concept/design/art purpose or b. he was been poisoned or he has been much slandered … or some fans suggest it is dragons that are painted on his lips which referece to his lyrics .
Apparently BIGBANG win the battle so it's party time ! BOOMSHAKALAKA time!
People can now be free from their masks , can breathe normally and dance and enjoy the music .
BIGBANG are back together . Their moves could be again only a dancing idea , Dragon Ball reference or could be a hint that they have been “blown away” 2 times but they stayed up and didn’t fall down .
What are the animals dancing in the end ? Dragons ? I assume they are dragons since is dragon year .
Finally we have BIGBANG back on their thrones , ready to rule the world !!!I want to give them a hug ! They made it , they are back !!!
This is why I like this video – one way or the other – it tells the story of BIGBANG coming back after hard times and fighting over the prejudices of people !
3. Energy explosion !
I liked the song before but the video just made me totally love this song ! It fills it up with more energy ! Or is the other way around ? Idk , but the combination of the two is an explosion !
I already wrote too much , so I should stop now even there is probably much more to be said .
It might not make much sense but I wanted to write it !
BOOMSHAKALAKA , everyone !
