He was my brightest star

In the night, I couldn't ignore

'Cause when he plays his guitar

He knows exactly where to go

He takes the lead and I follow

Aimlessly, I follow

In a parallel univese

Everything in reverse

Maybe you could be mine

The Astronaut

A lot has been said on The Astronaut already. This is only my personal interpretation of what I see in this MV, the storytelling and some tiny references scattered here and there.

Since the song is co-written by Jin and Coldplay, two universes do mingle in one single song, so there is bound to be obvious links to both of them in the MV.

Music of the Spheres on one side and Jin/BTS/BU (yes BU) on the other, two distinct universes but with so much in common.

The contents that were released followed the astronaut's journey: The teaser made us follow the astronaut outside his spaceship on his travels in space.

The concept photos are a sequence of actions leading to the MV: 1.The Outlander, 2.Lunar Eclipse and 3. Land on Earth.

If you remember FESTA 2020, we had a Little Prince concept around a journey theme. Jin was then portrayed as the Little Prince, singing Moon and staring at his Earth, ARMY, in the ON:E concert.

We already had a Jin space traveler back then...

And if that was not enough, Wootteo our new astronaut friend, clearly told us where he was going.

Now let's start the MV.

Jin has crashed on Earth. He is the space traveler, the astronaut. Interesting that he lands in the middle of nowhere, a somewhat desert place... just like the Little Prince. But Jin's story is different.

He lands with his black helmet... It's the only thing next to him, the only thing that protected him in his journey or the crash? Maybe. It is important enough to be in the frame as a precious belonging coming out of the spaceship.

Fast forward to Jin's room.

Remember that BTS curated room for ARMY? It has most of the elements but this is the astronaut's room: Coldplay and My Universe posters, photos on a string, the guitar Chris gave Jin, retro game, tv and music equipment.

Feels and looks like a late 80s room...

Jin is doing a crossword with words only related to us: ARMY, Astronaut, Star, Moon (another song for ARMY) and Cozy.

Once more to the moon, the picture says... Yes that's our moon, Jin, going on a lunar eclipse for a while.

"The planet is coming back soon" may be a hint for Coldplayers related to Music of the Spheres, but it can also be for us ARMY. Coldplayers said that BTS is from blue planet Aurora. This was confirmed by the concept The Outlander for The Astronaut.

But why would the planet "come back"?

In the Little Prince book, the prince waits for one year until his star comes back above Earth, that's when he says he can go back home. Maybe that's what Jin is waiting for. For his planet to come back above Earth so that he can go back home.

The magazine says "coming back soon". How soon?

While Jin thinks about his crossword, his mind is drawn to the drawings on the wall. He tilts his head, demonstrating interest and recognition. He does that several times in the MV.

Side note: we now know that the child who drew those is Lumpens' child, Bangtan MV director for a very long time now...

Apart from that one moment of interest, Jin seems to be bored, waiting... drifting away as the lyrics say: "Like that asteroid drifting by without a destination, I, too, was just drifting away"

Note the retro game and old TV... and of course the very important black helmet.

Zoom in onto the TV where Chris Martin is the TV presenter. We have an old tv, old movies (Song of a Thin Man 1947, Another Thin Man 1939, John Paul Jones 1959) and that haircut on Chris... we are not in our 2022 regular universe except for the Coldplay tour poster on the side.

The mysterious beam of light that Chris is sharing in the breaking news segment seems to be what Jin was waiting for. His face lights up when he sees it through the window.

The astronaut's poster next to the window is one of Buzz Aldrin, one of the first men on the moon. Another reference to a journey to the moon, to another space traveler.

Jin puts on his suit and helmet and goes out. Oh yes, that's a déjà vu. How many times have you seen Jin dressing up and put on a baseball cap before going out? You have not? Go watch the LY Highlight Reel. None of them had a happy ending before...

If you didn't understand by now that Jin is not from Earth, then his behavior in the next scenes does point it out. He is very stiff in his walk and waving to the little girl. But he does one thing that shows he cares about her: he gives her his precious helmet before leaving.

And Jin starts running towards his goal. But his road is not so easy. There are obstacles, people on his way pushing him, but even with the stop signs he does not stop and goes on...

You and me Like a star that doesn’t shatter

And here comes another wink to BU. Yes, the florist shop he comes across... just when the lyrics go:

Becoming your dream To travel throughout the universe

The Smeraldo shop reference? BU space-time traveller Jin? Yes that was 100% done on purpose.

Jin also walks past an astronaut and stops to look at his reflection. He is the astronaut.

I also love the fact that they chose a Wanda Vision set for this particular scene. Multiverse possibilities again... and 2 completely different universes colliding with this collab.

And we follow Jin on his journey to his spaceship. There was a subtle reference to Coldplay's Paradise MV (2011) in these scenes. In that mv, Chris, dressed as an elephant, escapes a zoo and goes on a journey to to find his bandmates, his family, also dressed as elephants...

On his way, Jin thinks of the little girl, how he helped her ride her bicycle. There is a clear parallel between the girl learning how to manage on her own and Jin finally reaching his destination, his spaceship. Maybe that's a way to tell us that the struggle was there for both of them.

And it has probably been a long time wait for him... When the astronaut crashed, everything was bare around the shiny spaceship, now it has trees and shrubs growing nearby and the shiny luster on the spaceship has gone away.

How long has he been on Earth, waiting to go back?

The next scenes are all for us, ARMY. The lyrics and the purple color coding is clear. Jin looks straight into the camera to sing the chorus:

When I'm with you There is no-one else

And that purple galaxy of stars sparkling, that Jin sets alight at the tip of his finger (remember that), that's once again our ARMY galaxy. This is another familiar visual we got from Bangtan visuals through the years, like the one that starts the Highlight Reel or in DNA mv.

The second part of the chorus and we're back to the little girl, is that us ARMY? Maybe. Maybe that little girl is all of us. She teaches him what love and being human means. And everything she shared with him, photos and drawings, he kept them all in his room... remember?

There is one famous alien that learns about love from a child, makes its way back to his spaceship carried on a bicycle, flying over the moon and has a light at the tip of his finger...

Remember E.T.? Yeah 40 years in 2022. At the end, the alien leaves but tells the boy "I'll be right here".

Back to the mv. The space ship takes off, but Jin does not leave Earth. His face clearly shows he understands something as the song goes "And I Love You"

The space traveler has realized that he loves the little girl. So he decides to stay while his spaceship leaves.

The moment he turns around is when we first see that he has a tattoo on his neck, one that spells out AMI.

This act of turning his head sideways is a Jin signature move in BTS MVs to demonstrate that something important is happening right then. He even does it in the BST parody!

Jin tries to hitchhike his way back, but no vehicle stops for him except a pickup truck. It had to be a pickup right? BU happy times in MVs are always linked to a pickup, it's part of their signature visuals. But this time Jin is not the one driving, he is being driven home.

And home, is where ARMY is, or in this MV, where the little girl is. We can clearly see the AMI tattoo as he smiles in the sunset. And he shows us the drawing of what home means: Earth, Jin, the little girl on her bicycle.

Jin leaves the desert behind... we can see it going away as he rides back to the place he now calls home in the pickup. That walk through the desert is again a classic in Bangtan's visuals and lyrics... it is part of their journey.

We're back in Jin's room, in his home. His gaze towards the hanging solar system model tells us he still thinks about traveling but maybe with a different mindset. Side note: that solar system has 9 planets... 134340 or Pluto is there!

Jin finally finds the word he was looking for in his crossword. He has found Family. The Astronaut, the star, can settle down. He found a cozy place and a family with ARMY.

His happiness is complete when he hears the bell of his friend's bicycle. She has come to see him. The only times in the MV when he smiles that bright is when he thinks of his friend or when he is with her.

The metaphor here is obvious: we will all smile again together... soon.
