One thing that stood out to me that I haven't seen people notice is how the bathtub is first filled with money. It only shows it in one shot before it cuts to Yoongi being held in the water. To me, this symbolizes how money can actually drown us through greed. Like money is the water that's killing us as he shows visually.

[Me_Pandora]

My theory is that the cop yoongi is actually the poor yoongi from daechwita, that after killing the king, let the power consume him and became just like the mad king. The scar is healed while in Daechwita it was still fresh, so that's why I thought it was him.
Meanwhile the thug yoongi doesn't have any scar and is going through the same cycle of killing the tyrant yoongi.
I also saw on twitter how the mad king yoongi had a dragon emblem that had only 4 fingers, while thug yoongi from haegeum has a dragon emblem with 5 fingers, so it would mean he's the true king.

[faecreature]

My theory, as quickly as I can say it without going on a tangent: for sake of ease, Blond Yoongi is King, Black Haired Scarred Yoongi in Daechwita is Rebel but in Haeguem is Boss and blackhaired yoongi without a scar is New Thing (I'm not great with names).

So King is actually first seen in Agust D and Give it to me. He used his greed and lust for power to pull himself out of his poverty and to create a new world for himself. This is why King is blonde in Daechwita. It is the personification of his greed and need for power. Its what pulled him out of his old world (the mobile home) and put him in the palace. HOWEVER Rebel realized he's reached the top and he needs to look down and put his feet back on the ground. The only way that's going to happen though is to get rid of the King... and the King is hard to dispose.

Rebel does it though! he kills his greed and takes over with better intentions. This brings us to Haeguem. Boss IS Rebel. Because power corrupts (whether you're a king or a cop, regardless of whether youve started from a good intention or not), Rebel loses his original goal and in many ways becomes King. This is why we see him in similar frames as King (the balcony, the stairs, the smirk before he's shot). You can see he still has Rebel in him as he seems hesitant to kill New Thing but ultimately he does.

New Thing is both part King and part Boss/Rebel but also he's something New. he doesn't have that scar. He's become the new Rebel and when he kills Boss, he takes Boss's cop car to Boss's 'palace' and orders food. He is on his way to becoming Boss. It's an ongoing cycle, an ongoing battle between his greed and his morals. The battle will continue, but each time Rebel kills King/Boss the reincarnation becomes less Boss and more... Yoongi. The Blonde hair becomes black. The scare fades and then is gone in New Thing. If anyone comes from New Thing, he will look more like Yoongi. Not Agust D, not Suga. Min Yoongi.

And that's the thing... Min Yoongi is dead, Agust D killed him... but I think Rebel is specifically YOONGI coming back, fighting Agust D, Fighting that greed and knowing full well that when Yoongi becomes Agust D, Min Yoongi is GOING to come and kill him. He knows it. He welcomes it.

In Yoongi's documentary(haven't seen it yet but just read this somewhere) he said that he included the smoking thing because in a way it's forbidden to them(the idols) and people call them out for these small little things when they themselves are mature enough to know about all this...so it's freeing from the FORBIDDEN (smoking here ) I'm so impressed rn

[toheavanever]

Yoongi said we are getting a MV for Amygdala too 😱 he said the 3 MV 'belong together ' he said we should watch the 3 of them back to back and we will understand.
Daechwita then Haegum then Amygdala!!
Im super excited 😱💜

[NyxGamingIN]

Was it just me or when Yoongi came back to the noodle shop, he brought half of the cop-yoongi (his jacket and maybe even trouser and the police car) and half of himself (his shirt and his demeanor). So maybe he killed a socially accepted version of himself, took some parts of it along with his new raw self?

[claritale_]

I thought that it was very clear that the "cop" is actually a mafia boss, by the way that he was torturing the other character, who is not "greed" because he burned the money, so i think he just used the mafia boss' money to lure him out and take him down? Something like that. And I believe the mafia boss is the same character that took the king down in the other mv, but now he became corrupted, so a new yoongi came to replace him.

[toheavanever]

Haegum is a traditional Korean instrument and it also means 'lifting a ban' Yoongi is such a genius!!! This song is so deep and important. The beat is fire and the MV is a MOVIE!!! All my respect to LUMPENS!! Amazing work!!
Give Yoongi an Oskar!! 👌😎🔥
Have a butter-ful weekend lovely Army 💜

[famouslemon]

Someone theorized when suga pointed the gun to the one who have scars and he smirk it actually means that even though How many times he tried to kill or erase that other version of him..he will always comeback or be there.
As for me i think they come up with this theory because we know in daewchita he killed that version of him that have scars and here in haegeum he still there or did comeback

[pamelacunningham]

Okay this is my opinion. Each solo of each member speaks on their freedom to do what THEY want to do. It is supposed to personal. Suga I think finds himself to be different people/personalities. These "personalities" are always at odds but goodness always wins.

[dopaminish]

I think it’s about ambiguity. Everybody has good and „bad“ sides, even the cop yoongi has the dark sides, I even think that cop yoongi is the bottom class suga from daechwita. He’s developing and growing constantly, and freeing himself from old beliefs, opinions and even wounds (like you said the scar was much less visible, and chop stick yoongi even has no scar at all). In the glitch film he says „The world‘s fixed stereotype
Collides with my inner self
And leaves trauma for a while
But this temporary glitch
Transforms into the driving force
To create a new wavelength
and becomes a part of me“
That matches so well. That’s the individual perspective. Another perspective could be that with the connection to daechwita, people are always children of their time period, which means that they could be considered good in their time, but later in time values change, we have to adapt and reflect if what we thought or have been taught to be the right thing back then still matches our beliefs and values now.
We all are part of this society and have to play the game of capitalism. We succeed and fail. We are good AND bad, in fact there is no single human beeing without shadows.

He has this amazing ability to make people think an reflect and interpret…I love this. I love beeing a part of this. And as a neurodivergent person, as a parent, as a citizen from a country which terrible collective crimes in the past, I think this message is so powerful.

[fay-mSOPEfan]

Wow...I just watched another reaction & the guy actually noticed that in the scene with the bathtub, in the background of the room on a stand on a desk is the sword from Daechwita! Damn! Sooo many details...like the dragon embroidery on the back of this Agust D's jacket has the right number of claws for being royalty, whereas the Daechwita "King" had one less, pointing out he was fake...mind blown 🤪

[stephaniebryant]

In Daechwita both characters have the But it doesn't look like they both have the scar in this one. Maybe because he's saying that he's healed from his past scars?

[Melody-zugx]

Something I think people missed or didn’t remember is that suga said he may have shot AT the other agust d in daewhcita but we didn’t know for sure if he actually shot him fr. Because we didn’t see his body and we didn’t see the shot actually hit. It was off-screen in a way so we just assumed he shot him dead😯☝🏾. BUT yet here he is in this video once again. With the same scar but more faded, and still in a high position of power, abusing said power and using corrupt/unsavory methods under his rule. The only difference is this time he really got rid of him for good. We saw him take the shot and saw he really did shoot him dead this time which I think holds a specific significance. And I think he made that difference for a reason. It’s clear he’d been chasing and trying to catch gangsta agust d/yoongi for a while but when he finally did he met his end by “his own hands”. Fitting imo😌🙏🏾

[chencalo]

I felt more like the surviving Yoongi was fighting the corruption of the authority and the money "stolen" was dirty money belonging to the dirty Yoongi popo.

Just my 2 cents, can't wait for your deep dive! 💜 #Yoongiistoocool

[mollyfurball]

The hubby says he felt some DEPARTED parallels, which explains why he left in a cop car in the end, if he was indeed undercover...

[mariaelenaruybesullivan]

Was that the other man's black jacket when he arrived to eat noodles with those red chopsticks?

[aquagirlyan]

From what I noticed, in Daechwita it wasn’t shown if the King actually died after the gunshot unlike here in Haegeum. So, I have a feeling that Haegeum is sort of a continuation of Daechwita.

[JenniferHuangDeng]

I love everything about this!! I am freaking out a bit. Min Yoongi Min Suga Agust D is cool, crazy and dangerously creative and talented. I am kind of scared and in awe of actor Min Yoongi. The emotions he portrayed.

[silver]

i think the noodle shop represent the music industry, and the police represent the power (get money from spins and views) and also the hypocrites (people with moral perfect and always judging idols based on little things).
yoongi use chopsticks, which is his music, to free himself from the corrupted but still live in the music industry.
