LY:Tear/Fake Love MV Theories Megathread

[u/anyone-but-me]

Good morning/afternoon/evening lovely people. Please post all of your theories involving the Love Yourself/BTS universe after the release of LY:T and the Fake Love MV here! Happy theorising <3

an empty, semi-destroyed room with 6 coatracks and a creepy-looking guy wearing a mask certainly doesn't give off a positive vibe. that's why lots of people thought JK was making a deal with the devil after seeing the teaser. but maybe something good could still come out of it, who knows!

Ugh, true.... I was sat here typing out rambling thoughts but with each sentence, I’m like “yeah but janelle what about this clue, or that one?” So no, my brain can’t get there right now. I’m mostly hung up on how JK seems thrown into the Magic Shop rather than seeking it out. And the Note they dropped a few weeks ago that said “Living will be even more painful than dying, but even so do you still want to live?” which that whole note is clearly about him landing in the Magic Shop, right? Maybe right when he was hit by the car. Like he has the choice to live or die. Living involves using the key? Or dying involves using the key to save everyone else? WHAT? I’m drinking, I’m sorry.

It didn't occur to me that it could be related to that Note! Interesting... But I still think using the key has more to do with saving/helping the others rather than doing something for himself, idk. Also, JK seemed like he was either pushed into the magic shop or had just run really fast and thrown himself through the door. So maybe he was in a rush to help his friends and ran there? SO MANY QUESTIONS

Oh I do agree with you - he is helping the others, not himself. I’m just not sure in what context. (Him dead or alive; him bargaining; consciously or thrown in, etc)

[u/frankievsworld → u/SeoulDesire]

Exactly. There are way too many variables here lol
