BTS's second Japanese digital single, "Film Out," was released on April 1.
The song will be reissued as the opening track on their fourth Japanese compilation album, "BTS, THE BEST," which will be published on June 16.
Numerous of BTS's Japanese songs have been described as lyrical, with many hidden meanings and sincere themes. They are frequently gloomy; “Film Out” is one example. “Film Out” fits this characterization perfectly, since it is a sad ballad song, yet still feels dreamy.
With their individual interpretations, all seven members communicate the sentiments of the song, and their harmonisation matches well with the tone of the song. Every member's voice is brimming with colours and emotions, revealing an intimate and raw aspect of themselves. It makes listeners feel vulnerable while listening.
The term "Film Out" alludes to film cameras. When a camera reaches the maximum number of exposures on a film roll, the film is exhausted and must be processed in order to get the images that were taken. Because a film roll has a limited number of exposures, individuals do their hardest to snap the greatest photos possible to record the most beautiful moments in life.
Unfortunately, because the exposures ultimately run out, not every moment can be caught.
The term also suggests that the film roll's capacity has been surpassed, and all that remains are the memories contained within the film roll. However, another interpretation of the song title is that a person should not restrict himself since they would lose out on the essential and beautiful things in life because life is made up of possibilities.
ungkook contributed to the composition of the lyrics of "Film Out." The lyrics express feelings of longing for someone and reminiscing about happy experiences from the past. The song is about someone who can't let go of the other person because the other person still lives within them, and about hanging onto memories of the past despite the agony.The other person's imagination is still so vivid that it feels as if they are present, and the only thing that can be done is collect the memories to watch them projected across the room. The lyrics allude to the filming and editing processes. A video is made up of several sequences, b-rolls, and snippets. However, throughout the editing process, numerous sequences are deleted and the audio is altered. The arrangement of the clips can be altered several times, and the plot can change based on how the clips are organised. This interpretation may be observed in the start of the chorus: "From all the memories stored in my heart, I collect up the ones of you, connect them together."
The graphics in the music video also help to portray an emotional tale. It properly portrays the sadness of the words, and the use of nude and neutral tones makes the music video appear like a blank sheet, highlighting the empty sensations one may have while in a gloomy mood. As the scenes go, the music video's hues shift to red and yellow.That is how it remains till the finish of the song video.
The combination of red and yellow may appear odd, but it encompasses the rest of the atmosphere by graphically expressing the song's agony. Overall, the music video is basic but stunning and visually appealing.
Many fans are aware that the music video for "Film Out" is linked to a number of other hypotheses about BTS's music videos that have previously been proposed. The most popular idea is that Jin is time travelling in order to help save the other members, and this theory looks to be correct when examining closer into the music video.
Jin stands in the other room, keeping an eye on the other members, but as soon as he snatches the hourglass, they start to vanish. Jin glances back to the other room as Jungkook fades away, and papers begin to explode violently into the room through the windows, producing a shambles. This is the scene in which the music video turns red and yellow. The shambles that resulted are a mirror of the repercussions of attempting to alter things in the past. This is related to the butterfly effect idea, which states that every attempt to modify the past has a ripple effect that might have a significant impact on the future.
The hourglass, which has long been connected with time, appears in several sequences throughout the music video, leading many to believe that there was an attempt to turn back time to rescue what was once lost. However, the sand in the hourglass signifies the reality that time may run out, and it looks like Jin is running out of time to achieve what he wants to do.
There's also a scenario in which J-Hope and Suga mirror each other in a desolate setting.
Mirrors have a reputation for acting as gateways to another realm. This could only indicate that there exist parallel worlds, and Jin has attempted to visit each one in order to save the other six members. his is demonstrated in the music video, as Jin runs for the door and opens it, only to find himself standing on a floating rock with many other doors hanging in the sky, showing that other worlds existed all along.At the end of the music video, Jin is shown walking back to where he started and looking into the other room — standing on the other side, V is seen mirroring him.
“Film Out” has charted on the Billboard Hot 100 in three countries: the United States, Japan, and Korea. The song also remained at the top of the Japanese music charts, where it has remained since its debut. It also topped the iTunes list in 99 different countries and garnered the most views in the first 24 hours compared to any other BTS music video. However, the success of "Film Out" does not stop there, and the song can certainly expect to achieve great things in the future.
BTS's fourth Japanese compilation album, "BTS, THE BEST," will be released on June 17. Fans may also look forward to BTS FESTA, an event in which BTS commemorates their formation anniversary for 10-14 days. The celebration generally begins in early June, leading up to the anniversary date, and this year will be its ninth year. Fans can look forward to a slew of exclusive music and material created only for them.
