"Black Pink - Kill this love MV reaction: Killing Loves Forms"

The Vole

The highly addictive release from Black Pink which has been breaking Internet records puts out a straightforward video at first glance until you see the scenes that were plotted out for all for members. 

And while some of the scenes scream out for it's aesthetics there are still symbolism's in it that you might have missed. 

All members are trying to kill a version of love and 3 of them symbolize that love except for Lisa who destroys another form of it but more on that later.

Jenny with her Black and White Swans , her outfits match the stage as well. Her opening rap is fierce as one version rips a part a bejeweled heart.She is destroying what seems to be a balanced or stagnant form of love. 

Lisa's stage is inside a heavenly place full of sugary cereals that she destroys by bashing on them like some sugar addicted person. She is destroying that Naive part of being in love where you think all is sweet but will turn out otherwise.

There is a big bear trap where the girls dance in. And lo and behold when the angle is titled a little you see that this too is in the shape of a heart. Love is a trap!

Rose hits a version of herself with a car that has Ego as it's license plate. Killing something that is desperate trying to get away. The death of hope or Hopeful love. Where you wish things will get better but they do not.

Jisoo takes a flaming arrow and shoots it at her idealized self. A form of love that is beautiful and untarnished. Emotional love. Where you get the high of just being in love. The darker Jisoo is cold which might represent Logic and therefore a bane to those people in love who are so caught up in its emotional rush that they fail to see other things.

The scene where they sport Tomb Raider-esque outfits and the explosions as they dance might be a symbolism of finding one's self that has been buried and needs to be rediscovered after letting go of an unhealthy relationship.

Well I guess that is all for now.I particularly like this song with the rappers really awesome hooks and the vocal line getting really good moments as well. Millions already have seen it. This is just my take on the MV.
