Stray Kids think it’s okay to throw a teaser like that at us lol
anyways… gonna comment what I noticed in the trailer cause why not lol So many things happened, and I’m more confused than ever, but okay…
first of all, we see one red light turning into two green lights swag and SKZ divided in two groups: Jeongin, Hyunjin, Minho and Changbin vs Felix, Chan, Seungmin and Jisung and this is how they all are standing towards the end of the trailer.
well, we then see Seungmin entering an elevator by himself and we also see a mirrored pyramid on the floor with some weird papers around it (I don’t know why, but it reminded me of 19).
The pyramid is not with Seungmin, it is actually where Changbin and Jeongin are (it reminded me a bit of My Pace because it’s a tunnel with cars, but idk), and Changbin latter picks it up. Why? No idea, but he seems to be the only one curious about it.
Back to Seungmin, the reality is wobbling like in District 9, but it seems to be a connection to where Jisung is (that is similar to the field he finds when he comes out of the elevator in Hellevator alone, but then Chan leads SKZ to this field and they find Jisung again - and they also see a weird city upside down where their sky should be lol).
moving on… Seungmin seems to pull Jisung to his reality on the elevator and then Jisung touches the wobbly thing and two things happen: we see Chan for the first time (we don’t know where he came from, mysterious boy) and he is turning the key on the emergency thing to “on”, and a 3D triangle shows up instead of a number or letter on the elevator panel. And then we see a light suddenly appearing from above and making Hyunjin stop running (is he being abducted? this is an honest question I have because this is what it looks like).
the elevator starts crashing, Chan, Seungmin and Jisung are trapped inside it, and then it all fades to black. We see the traffic light again and now four green lights turn in two red lights. Weird, right? (does this mean that their journey or race has ended? because it seems like in the beginning they started walking their own paths after the green light, but when they’re all together again is after the red light…)
Stray Kids are divided into those two groups from the beginning and they’re walking towards each other when a strange loud noise seem to hurt their ears, but why is Jeongin the only one not being affected by it? lololololololololol
Felix looks like he’s inside the pyramid thing we see and nothing can change my mind.
and right after his background changes into a space galaxy is that Felix starts walking out of it and we see him with the others.. coincidence? was he set free by someone? Changbin maybe? (they’re together in Astronaut, remember? omg my Changlix hear is screaming). It is after Changbin picking up the pyramid that Seungmin goes crazy inside the elevator, Jisung appears inside it, Jeongin and Changbin seem to be experiencing an earthquake or sth, and Felix pyramid changes to a galaxy.
aaaaaaand we see Jeongin standing there staring straight into Changbin like he did something wrong and we see a freaking crater between them that shows what? yes, you saw it right: THE FREAKING SKY!
Changbin baby what have you done? lol jk
so it got me thinking… in this reality they’re up in the sky like some sort of a floating rock or spaceship (maybe after Astronaut?)… and maybe Changbin somehow triggered a destruction, messing it all up because of that pyramid.. which leads me to another pyramid we see, the one on the elevator that Chan suddenly appears on (where did this boy popped out from???????)
don’t laugh, but PlayStation came straight to my mind after I saw this, so I googled the meaning behind the symbols and I found out that PlayStation’s Japanese designer Teiyu Goto said that “The triangle refers to viewpoint; I had it represent one’s head or direction”.
isn’t it cool to know that a pyramid is only complete when all the building blocks are in place??? and isn’t it cool to notice that SKZ is only seen together again when Chan puts the elevator in pyramid mode??? bc probably their direction is going where the other ones are
and isn’t is even more interesting that the compass seems to be finally working after they’re all together at the right place? (cause you cant use one in places that are too magnetized or have strong electricity power lines because that may interfere in the reading of the compass).
i still don’t know why Felix is the one always holding the compass and it bothers me the fact that we see fake on D9 teaser being shown behind him and that he stares at Jeongin in DK like they were planning sth D: but maybe is just my mind
anyways… the compass (or this reality) seems to materialize another elevator (a fancier one if compared to Hellevator) and they’re in awe with it. We get a peek through the keyhole, but whatever is on the other side of those doors we’ll only find out December 9th lol
Things that made me think a lot in this trailer is: why are there so many weird cuts? and is this the real Jeongin we’re seeing and the scene with the noise is he realizing he’s not with the real SKZ? or is this the fake one?
And why Seungmin (the one always in charge of the maps), Felix (the one always in charge of the compass), Chan (the leader, the one in charge of SKZ) and Changbin (the one that probably triggered this whole mess lol) are the only ones wearing the same clothes throughout the whole video? If I noticed right, Hyunjin changes clothes 3 times while the other ones change twice.
AAAAAND another thing that made me go crazy is the elevator panel that changes to letters and numbers:
Y Z 5 K 11 D 5
K11D5 to me looks like KIDS (with an extra I - there’s more than one of them there? hmmmmmm). And I tried to google anything that could mean Y Z and S or 5, but the only conclusion I got is related to math graph lol
Y on a graph means verticality, Z is dimension, but we can’t make an actual graph with only those two because the X (horizontality) is missing. Also, according to Quora: “The Y axis goes from the center of the Earth out through the equator at longitude 90 degrees (east). The Z axis goes up through the north pole”. And what is always pointing to the north pole? A compass needle.
Does this make any sense? I have no idea! All I know is that I got even more confused then before, but I can’t wait for Levanter!!!
BRING IT ON STRAY KIDS!
