For the uninitiated, this is the latest MV by Korean group Big Bang.
The following piece will try to dissect some images in the MV, hopefully to support a theory of mine about the story behind the MV. Now, the lyrics of the song have a meaning of their own, available here per a lovely translation of GD's handwritten notes on the lyrics. It's very much worth a read. Basically, it's about the death of a lover and the singer's wish to join the woman in the netherworld.
The point I set to prove here is that the images are flipped after a certain point, and there is a reason to do so besides them running out of set (for the USD200,000 budget, I could hardly think they would not be able to build a big enough set) or just for fun, it is to convey a deeper message of the protagonist in the story.
Warning: this is not the kind of entry for people who want to say, "Hey, obsessive much? Lighten up, it's just effing K-pop!"
( a dozen screencaps and some crazy )
( postscript by the venerable evie )
You know, when they said that I was going to go mad for Big Bang, I didn't know they meant, like, literally.

It's too late for me now, SAVES THYSELVES!!!
