I was doubtful about this song being about the Sewol sinking, but after reading a few articles on it, I can't help but wonder if that is true. 0:00 - Despite being dolled up and made to look gorgeous, the girls all have the same, sad look on their face. 0:06 - A yellow butterfly is seen behind Yeri, symbolizing hope. Yellow is also the color of the ribbon used for the Sewol disaster. 0:20 - A sign on the bulletin board says "AIS on 15-16." The AIS (a maritime emergency/distress signal) of the Sewol ferry was deactivated on either April 15 or 16. 0:22 - The interior of the set is much more similar to that of a boat corridor rather than a motel. 0:28 - Seulgi is peering into the keyhole of the door, symbolizing how she realizes the boat is sinking. She then faces the camera and perches herself on the balcony that is already beginning to flood with water. 0:43 - Irene, facing a porthole like mirror or window, stays still, as the passengers of the ferry were told to remain where they were as the boat sank. 0:51 - Joy, the sole survivor here, sadly looks at Irene, knowing she cannot help her. 0:58 - Joy is seen climbing the ladder and therefore escaping the waters below her. 1:05 - The image of Joy is disturbed by a cup of tea. The passengers were drinking tea at the time of the sinking and noticed the tea was tilted. This was the first sign that something was wrong for them. 1:12 - Seulgi attempts to escape with Wendy by opening a window, but she sees that it is already too late for Wendy. She is soaked in water, signifying her drowning. They cry together. 1:32 - In likely the most obvious sign in the music video, we see Yeri sound asleep in a boat that is rapidly flooding. She is roughly the same age as the students who passed away in the disaster, and showing her death symbolizes the loss of these children. 1:45 - A white light (heaven) swallows up the other girls, dressed in white (angels), as Joy fades away from them as she is the only survivor. At this time, the lyrics sung are "Let's meet again," further supporting the idea that the rest of the girls died while Joy lived. 2:03 - Seulgi, who has realized the severity of the disaster, had the chance to escape as well. But as the halls of the ship flood, she accepts her imminent death and opens the door to Heaven, where the other members (excluding Joy) welcome her in white robes. 2:41 - Wendy crawls under a table, which many of the trapped passengers did as the ship began to sink. 2:49 - The girls are surrounded by candles, in potentially a fantasy where they can all be together again. The candles represent honoring the dead, and Joy's yellow dress indicates hope once again. 2:58 - Irene is face to face with the water, as it slowly begins to drown her. The furniture is somewhat tilted, symbolizing the tilt of the ship as it sank. 3:07 - Yeri finally wakes up, but by now it is too late. The boat has flooded and she is staring at the sea, accepting her fate. 3:21 - Yeri succumbs to the waters and passes away. 3:38 - The porthole breaks open and floods with water, drowning Irene. 3:44 - Joy appears in black now, to show respect for the deceased. 3:51 - Another example of the posthumous fantasy with Red Velvet reunited. 3:58 - Irene is on the ground, surrounded by blue walls, representing her body trapped in the ship. You can see furniture floating above her, as if they are floating in the water. 4:02 - A member walks down the hall as the lights go out one by one, which can symbolize either the power going out as the ship sank and/or the lives lost in the disaster. And finally, the most compelling detail of all, this video was released exactly one month prior to the 2nd anniversary of the disaster. Not only that, you can see a moon behind a cloud multiple times in the MV. This video was released exactly two *lunar* years following the sinking. May all those who passed away in the disaster rest in paradise.
