đŸ±Around You (10 minute version runthrough)
I chose the 10 minute version because it's the most complete version of the around you music video. So prepare because this one thread might be long.

Let's begin!!
We start with the very first scene.
Hyunjin appears in the bridge wearing the cat head. This scene will be repeated another two times.

The second time Hyunjin won't have the head.
We see Hyunjin writting the letter. There's a few shots that look like they are from a cat's POV, as they are closer to the floor than others.
Then we hear a crash sound and Hyunjing gets up to search the origin. We see a vase with flowers ln the floor, which Hyunjin cleans.

Then she goes to the door and opens it to find the aforementioned bracelet. Which we know is made by Go Won in the See Saw VCR. She smiles.
Aproximate translation:

"I'm going back without a word..."
Then Hyunjin goes out and we are observing her from a normal height, meaning, we probably are on a human's shoes right now.
Hyunjin then walks and we see scenes from the teaser, in which she seems to find a cat, and offers the letters to it. As if she knew the cat and was waiting for it to get them and deliver them to someone.
Then we see Hyunjin walking again, some of the shots are fom the human observing her perspective.
After the train passes, we pan to Hyunbin in the bridge, leading to the first repetition of the bridge scene but without the cat head.
Then she arrives at the shop, which seems to be a barber shop. Hyunjin seems nervous and she's following the man's steps constantly, then she holds onto her letters.
After a few scenes of Hyunjin singing with and without the cats, we see her about to go down the stairs when a yellow cat approaches the bottom of the stairs.
That same cat seems to also appear on the cat room with Hyunjin and it has a shot directed to its left eye.
I also want to bring into attention how that yellow cat is the only one, out of 4/5 cats in the room, that doesn't have a grey/white coat and it's the only one that gets close to Hyunjin.
Let's take this moment to talk about some cat symbolism:

-Cats are usually associated with the moon, some cultures used to believe that cat eyes followed the moon's phases due to the pupil's shape and change of form.
-Cat's personalities are associated with purity, charisma, independence and liberty.

-As positive traits, cats are associated with power, intelligence, good energies, positive changes and are protectors against negativity.
-As a "negative" trait, they are mysterious.
Then Hyunjin goes down the stairs a tiny bit and then sits on them, the camera panning to a postcard she has on her hands.
It's for a motel in Utah.
Then, the cycle begins again, this time Hyunjin is wearing the cat head in every scene.
The next shot has multiple Hyunjins with the cat head, only one of them isn't wearing it.
There's 7 cat headed Hyunjins.
After the credits cut, we see cat-head Hyunjin encountering Heejin, who looks at her kinda confused before going back at her bussiness.
Ok, how do we unpack this whole video:

-Hyunjin is stuck in a loop, and the repetition of certain scenes makes it even more obvious.
-The multiple cat headed Hyunjin's could symbolize all the possible outcomes to Hyunjin's loop if it gets broken. But the given outcome is the+
One in which she meets Heejin.
-The white ans grey cats could be referencing the See Saw cat, which is the one that gave Hyunjin the bracelet.
-The yellow cat could've been the breaking point of Hyunjin's loop, as I believe the head is supposed to represent it.
-Is it just me +
Or Hyunjin's dress looks purple from afar despite it being clearly blue? Maybe that was done in purpose?
This is the end of this thread!!
