There is a very strong theme of reflection-- each member manifests this.
Namjoon = double version of oneself
Seokjin = surrounded by mirrors
Yoongi and Hoseok = reflections on a pond

The overarching theme of reflection in the trailer is perfect for Map of the Soul which kicks off with the question, "Who the hell am I?" After all, this era is an introspection of what constitutes oneself.
I have some theories on how each scene connects to each member& #39;s songs.

"My shadow, I wrote and called it hesitation/
It has never hesitated after becoming that/
It keeps appearing under the stage or the light/
Keeps glaring at me scorchingly like a heat wave"

There are multiple reflections of Jimin from different mirrors, showing different angles of himself. Perhaps alluding to Filter:
"Mix the colors in the palette, pick your filter/
Which me do you want?"

While Taehyung& #39;s setup also implies a multiplicity of self, what& #39;s interesting is that he& #39;s far away from the mirrors-- as if he& #39;s looking at distant, or past, selves.
"The lights illuminating your eyes, they& #39;re the me of now/
You’re my boy"

The aligned reflections of Jungkook connote time, a progression of oneself, reinforced by his movement of walking forward.
"Keep on runnin’ errday, mic pic it up/
Friends ridin’ subway, I’ll be in the airplane mode/.../
But is it too fast?"

I& #39;m still mulling on Seokjin& #39;s, Yoongi& #39;s, and Hoseok& #39;s. I have some ideas, but I don& #39;t want to put them in here unless I can strongly back it up with the lyrics.
I& #39;ll update this thread once I& #39;ve organized my thoughts about them!
