    The music video is inspired by the DIvina Commedia written by Dante Alighieri, an italian author from 13th century. The novel is divided in 3 parts: Inferno (hell), Purgatorio (purgatory) and Paradiso (paradise). This mv actually refers only to the Inferno part of the novel. The phrase is the introduction to the hell and it's written in a sort of dialect (volgare) from Florence (Dante's city) that is the base for the modern italian. It was a language that was talked by normal people and that everyone could understand because Dante wanted to make everyone able to understand this nove. During the Purgatorio and Paradiso the language becomes more and more difficult until it becomes basically latin. In the video every scene represent a circle of hell and each has different punishment based on the sin and the "legge del contrappasso". As someone who studied a lot the Divina Commedia I really appreciate that they decide this concept but some scenes could have been done better , maybe they could have been more loyal to the real description in the Divina Commedia, but overall I really enjoyed this comeback, definetely one of my favorite in 2020

      Also Movie Star had already quotes from the Divine Comedy. At the beginning you can see the writing "Lasciate ogni speanza voi ch'entrate" (abandon all hope, you who enter here) which was the inscription found on the gates of hell in Dante's Inferno

    trigger warning: suicide, death, self-harm, bullying, violence, car accidents.
    the comeback is based off of dantes divine comedy where hell is divided into 9 circles and they have a whole entire storyline starting from numb.
    at the beginning of the MV we find jinyoung being dragged to the second circle of hell where he'll await his judgment to which circle of hell he'll be punished to.
    The fifth circle is where hyunsuk is. the wrathful and the sullen. the wrathful fight eachother along the river styx and the sullen float along the surface of the boat which is where hyunsuk is punished for his sins. in the numb storyfilms he was abandoned by his father, leaving him sullen.
    The 7th circle is where we find seunghun. its divided into 3 rings and the first one is where people are punished by shooting them with arrows for being violent to people and property. we dont know this but he may be here because he was one of the bullies that tormented yonghee.
    The 2nd ring of the 7th circle is where we find yonghee. Its for violence against yourself. the souls who have committed violence against themselves are turned into trees and are tormented by harpies that have the face of women and body of birds. yonghee attempted suicide in the story film but luckily survived. yonghee was being bullied (possibly by seunghun) plus academic pressure and this caused him to try and take his life.
    The 8th circle is for the fraudulent and their punishments differ depending on the type of fraud they committed. hypocrites in this circle are forced to wear heavy robes, golden and lined with led. they must endlessly walk like this in a circle and we can find Seunghun here aswell. Yonghee texted his mother right before he jumped off the roof which causes his mother to hit seunghuns mother with her car, killing her. seunghun mourning her death is the hypocrisy since he (allegedly) played a role im yonghees decision to take his own life.
    The 9th and final circle of hell is a frozen lake and it, too like dantes vision of hell, is divided into rings of increasingly bad sections with the worst in the center. youre sent here for betraying the trust of someone close and special and Jinyoung is here. In the story films he betrayed yonghee. There are multiple reasons as to why jinyoung may have ended up here.
    A) While trying to stop Yonghee from hurting hum self in class, he went too far and instead humiliates him.
    B) He didnt care enough that yonghee was hurting already
    C) He didnt/couldnt stop yonghee from attempting suicide.
    Now youre probably wondering where Byounggon is in all of this and in all reality it isnt very clear. some fix have speculated (based off of the concept film for jungle) hes in the 6th circle where heretics are trapped in flaming tombs.

    Just so you know, Movie Star -> Numb -> Jungle is connected! If you watch all the Numb short films of each member, you'll get to understand it better, for example, Yonghee's S word, since Jungle is based off of Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy, Yonghee is at the 7th Circle of Hell called Violence (7th Circle is divided into 3 Rings, he's at the 2nd Ring which is The Ring Of Self Harm). You should definitely watch the teasers of Jungle too, it adds more insight to the whole story!

    Numb mini films basically show butterfly effect, just this one person actions and decisions changes everyone's life, and how the others members being bystanders were affected by it as well. they're very deep and explicit so if you're not in a good place i recommend to watch the clean versions (official mv is clean). But overall i think you would love and appreciate this concept very much, the lyrics are beautiful and all the 2nd mini album is connected song by song. The victims pov, the bystanders guilt pov, the bullies pov , basically what society have done to the victim
    "destroy - regret - guilt - move on" shitty, but a reality of how the real world works.

    CIX were inspired by an Italian masterpiece of the Middle Ages.
    A little explaining: The Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri, is an Epic poem of 3 parts of the three divisions of the world beyond: -the Inferno(hell),the Purgatorio(purgatory), and the Paradiso(heaven) to make his way back to God.
    The first trailer is focused on the gates (entrance) of hell , we can see Bae Jinyoung running through the "Selva oscura" (dark JUNGLE) . This where Dante was lost,this is where the journey through hell starts
    [Teaser 1](ua-cam.com/video/UMmqAnjHks0/v-deo.html)
    "Lasciante ogni speranza, voi ch'entrate" was written in the entrance of the Inferno (hell) which means "leave all hope,you who enters" ."The gates of hell" are an actual monumental sculpture in real life. this the same gates that are in front of Bae Jinyoung
    Based on Dante's idea of hell, Hell is structured like an upside down cone, with each descending circle becoming smaller and containing more depraved souls and more intense suffering. Right outside the gates of Hell are those who neither accepted nor rejected God.
    On the next trailer,we can say BX is on the 6 Circle In Dante's 'Inferno' the 6th Circle of Hell is reserved for heretics and the horrifying punishment that sinners there have to endure:sinners are trapped in burning tombs,and they suffer ''horrible pain''
    [BX teaser](ua-cam.com/video/wCzk03udiQU/v-deo.html)
    next Hyunsuk(water 水)we see those who have been refused entry Hell.They form a river of naked bodies drawn by a banner. By this we think Hyunsuk is laying on Charon's boat. CH is the ferryman who transport dead souls across the river Acheron and into hell
    At first, he refuses to ferry Dante, because Dante is a living soul.But he agrees to help when he's told that their journey is ordered by God's will. So he tells Dante to not touch the dead, as he wont be carried across with those souls,but have to arrange another crossing
    [Hyunsuk teaser](ua-cam.com/video/cObeaSlcPNg/v-deo.html)
    Next Seunghun (sand 沙)seems to be on the 7 Circle of Hell (Violence)this embodies three levels of souls who have committed acts of brutality.Each soul is assigned to a level of the circle according the kind of violence that was committed while on Earth
    On the 3rd section Dante proceed through the forest to where the Third Ring of the Seventh Circle begins, and there he finds a desert of fire-hot sand, where flakes of fire burn and fall down unendingly on those who were violent against God-blasphemers.
    [Seunghun teaser ](ua-cam.com/video/o23QTHqiBGs/v-deo.html)
    Next Yonghee(wood 木)seems hes on the 7th circle as well BUT he's on the 2nd ring.The second section of the Seventh Circle is reserved for those who committed suicide, or Violence Against Self.
    Here he sees suicides who have been turned into trees and bushes which are fed upon by harpies, hybrid creatures that have the body of birds (in the trailer you can see ravens) and faces of human woman.
    [Yonghee Teaser](ua-cam.com/video/s33LDi6NNI8/v-deo.html)
    Next is Bae Jinyoung (ice 氷) he's chained up in The 9th Circle of Hell (treachery).Treachery was a frozen landscape and in Dante's vision of Hell, the 9th Circle is divided into rings of increasingly bad sections with the worst being at the center.
    The 9th circle is the worst of the worst.people who betray their loved ones belong here. Ice encase the worst of sinners and Satan himself makes sure the ice continues to stay frozen, because those who betray others lack of love.this circle has no warmth and is surrounded by cold

    poem describes the author's journey through the afterlife It has three parts, each of which is concerned with one of the three divisions of the world beyond: the Inferno (hell), the Purgatorio (purgatory), and the Paradiso (heaven). So basically going through hell and it's parts which you can see in the music video

    Sorry that you felt pressured to watch all microfilms for Numb. You can just watch the mv. I think there'll be FIX explaining the storyline for you in the comment section. In brief, CIX members committed things during Numb era and that makes them suffer in hell in Jungle era now. The hell in Jungle and the whole concept CIX referenced is the divine comedy by Dante. The Hello series, three mini albums so far, reference to Inferno. Everything, started even before CIX's debut (they have some pre-debut films), has hints to the concept and the storyline of CIX, which really surprises me. It's my first time stanning a group that is THIS well-planned. Also, thank you for loving BX and Seunghun. I watched that yg show for them.

    This twitter thread explains it way better than me so i'll just give them credit for their hard work: twitter.com/bloomblompow/status/1314035910703542272?s=20
    This album appears as the perfect follow up to their second mini album and 'Numb' which had a storyline involving school pressure / bullying (each b-sides of the album was suposed to tell a story from the point of view of different people ex: Rewind=the bully/ Black Out=the victim etc..)

    The 5 short films they did in preparation for Numb were extremely impactful. You will need to put an age rating and trigger warning on your video if you do a deep dive on them. It's worth it, they were really good. There is a more censored version but I feel like it removes some of the impact, these themes shouldn't be dulled, in my opinion. Raising awareness for suicide, depression, bullying and mental health is never a bad thing.

    while u don’t have to watch the pre videos and short films of numb era, you’ll find that if you do, it’s a lot more rewarding when you watch the mv because it follows the storyline. like for example the Rubik’s cube Hyunsuk is seen playing with as he continuously waits for his dad at the bus stop, in the mv u can see him fumble with the cube in mid air symbolizing those exact events in reference to his chapter. the fire around bx in numb mv is also referencing the lighter he has with him all the time, especially during the time he goes to witness yonghee getting jumped by his classmates while he stands and does nothing. (this is also a reference to a b side on their album “bystander”) it’s like little Easter eggs and overall, I think watching the vids just makes the mv and album that more impactful because ur following a storyline

    i’m still so glad that yg didn’t pick seunghun to be in treasure, something that always bothered me while watching ygtb was that he was always intimidated by yedam when he was equally as talented and possibly better, but we never got to see that because every single opportunity he had he would always steer clear of yedam. I mean i don’t blame him, yedam’s really talented and had a huge following but i’ve always thought that even if seunghun didn’t win it wouldn’t be because he wasn’t good or as talented but bc of terms of popularity, but even then seunghun still had a pretty solid fandom predebut.
    I honestly don’t know if any of that made sense but at least now everyone is happy, they’re super successful and i’m super proud of how far they’ve all come to achieving their dreams 🥺🥺

      Seunghun's charm is different. Yang Hyunsuk said it himself than Seunghun is very manly. So I think Byounggon and Seunghun being the tallest and oldest trainees really didn't suit YG's vision of their new BG. Seunghun's voice is more natural (belting technique) than Yedam. But Yedam's confidence on stage is better than Seunghun (back then)
      Now, they have a group that compliments their charm, starting with the ever sexC Bae bae. CIX = SEXC
