[ANALYSIS] What did BTS tell us through ‘Make It Right’ MV:
BTS is portrayed in The Music Video as the little boy who had nothing. He was lost and lonely. No one cared about him and his world was nothing but a uniform boring color of emptiness.
Then the girl came into the frame. The beautiful girl portrays BTS’ fans also known as ARMY. The boy was going crazy, but the girl who was ready to dive in the boy’s blank world and accept him the way he was. Even though he had nothing.
The boy turns around and finds this beautiful being behind him. He was sad and isolated but someone noticed him.
He who couldn’t even stand up, finally did because someone finally understood him. Finding someone who understands you can change your world…
And thus, after holding the girl’s hand, the boy’s world became greener and more wonderful.
The girl taught the boy to enjoy the little things in life. To run and laugh and have a way to walk in and a dream to reach out to.
When the little boy was asleep, the girl didn’t. She sat there and watched over him. Like ARMY watched over BTS. There was also a fire that kept them warm.
But what kept the little boy warm the most was the little girl.
But the little boy grew up day after day and had his own world now. So the girl thought that she is just one of many or that the little boy is now grown enough to walk his own way…
So she became less of a person and turned into a blanket. To keep him warm in the cold and protect him from the heat.
Yes, even when the light of the fire that can be portrayed as the public no more supporting BTS at a certain time. ARMYs were there to take on the cold and let BTS sleep at ease. The girl was the reason the boy survived the cold nights.
The boy woke up and realized the girl was no more near him. She was there when he cried…
And the boy wanted to love the girl too but then he lost his mind (BTS found fame, and with it, people get lost)
The boy continued his journey searching for the sea in a desert (BTS talked about this in their song SEA)
The boy who was no one became a hero.
But even heroes cry and get hurt.
Yet when he recalled that the girl was once there with him, he continued his journey.
Without knowing the girl was still there protecting him…As he was too self-centered with his own problems to notice.
Then he recalled the times where the only one who stood by his side was the girl, while everyone laughed at him, his dreams and everything (This is something that really happened to BTS, only ARMY was there while they were laughed at on a daily)
Yet, the boy who was the joke of the town was the only one who was able to handle a holy sword that many wanted but no one got. That sword can portray opportunities and bigger worldwide fame.
So again the boy retook his journey, but this time to go against his fears. To kill the monster inside him but also save the town that once laughed at him (BTS struggled mentally a lot during the last years but they tried their best to get better and remember their roots, they also became the pride of the country that once avoided them)
The boy is now alone and has to face the monster that no one faced before (This can be translated as BTS facing the worldwide fame that no-one experienced in their country before and the big responsibilities that come with it)
The boy tried alone to face his biggest fear, the dragon.
He was deep inside searching for the little girl but his responsibilities grew bigger. He is now a hero who needs to beat the devil monster.
And when no one expected to beast to be defeated. He proved everyone wrong and he did…
However, No battle let you come out of it unharmed. The boy could have lost his life but protected himself with the last gift the girl left him.
After he won it all he should be happy. But the boy was sad and cried. It’s like fame and power are just titles. He cried because at the top it’s lonely again.
And just when he thought he came back to zero when he was allegedly a hero. The girl appeared again to assure him “I never left, I will never leave. I will protect you and keep my promise”
SO don’t take the Make It Right Music Video lightly. It’s the story of BTS and ARMY. It’s our story.
